SpuffyWeb Sadly Over-hyped
Marketic It's no definitive masterpiece but it's damn close.
SpecialsTarget Disturbing yet enthralling
ChicRawIdol A brilliant film that helped define a genre
Vibijithnair Passenger directed and scripted by Ranjith sankar speaks of a persons humanity. Movie has strong cast line, Sreenivasan was main cynosure of the film and Jagathy character is more of a political despot. The movie tells the life of many villagers get endanger with jagathy political power, in attempt to save them Dileep get messed up where Sreenivasan get sucked into it being a plot driven film, and how Sreenivasan with his friends makes a desperate attempt to conquer against all odds, which ended up saving many and also by revealing to the media about conspiracy held by Jagathy behind this gambling. Passenger is a good film which can be appreciate for his novelty theme. Music by Bijibal is hummable which is played as a end credits and B.G.M is good. As a débutante work Passenger may be aloof far from a perfect, but can be praise for its simplicity and moral values which it taught.+ve: ¤Script. ¤Performance. ¤Songs(ending credits) and bgm. ¤Direction was fine.Must watch for those who like thought provoking movie, at least for the message which it delivers. I would rate it 7.7/10. Verdict: Good movie!
akhilaraheem Here he is; Ranjith Shankar, a débutant director, has ability to deliver! Upon seeing the posters and lines many were confused, including myself, what genre this movie would be. You get the answer before interval; it's a well executed soft thriller. The movie keeps you edge of your seat post interval. All characters are interesting. No-nonsense. Jagathy excelled as the cool villain. Valsala Menon character as Sreenivasan's mother is well thought! There are loose ends, very minor though. But it still does the purpose. A new breed to Malayalam Cinema. We need director's like Ranjith Shankar who thinks off the usual. Watch it!
ranjith_jo I'll make it simple. Malayalam movie themes use to revolve round a hero and a villain and his(heroes) less important wife/love and (most of the times, unwanted) songs. BUT this new director, came up with something that's completely different. Without any unwanted masala and the likes. And that's what it's all about. If you ask what is special about this movie, the first thing that comes to my mind will be the fresh change that it has brought. It's not a completely unpredictable movie, but still it's miles better than the usual line of malayalam movies.It is the story of an common man doing uncommon things; above all it's about being good at heart. Two big thumbs up for the director, Ranjith Shankar. Footnote:Considering Ranjith Shankar(hopefully), Blessy(of course) and Lal Jose(to some extend) Malayalam movie industry seems to have some potential
manjodude A simple, suspenseful drama of how ordinary, average people have life-changing experiences while taking the effort & courage to help someone somewhere in distress and told in such a refreshing fashion that it's a model for those who feel that violence & lotsa masala are the only way out to keep audience in their seats. The lead character done humbly but effectively by Sreenivasan is superbly supported by Nadumudi Venu. Dileep, Mamta & Jagathy Sreekumar also make an impressive presence. No songs here but then who really wants it if the debut director Ranjith Shankar can ably leave the audience in tenterhooks until the last moment. Quite inspiring in it's message and worth watching at least once.
