Thundu

Watching this movie felt like a waste of two precious hours. It lacked a coherent storyline and conveyed a negative message to society. I got the impression that it was directed by inexperienced individuals. I found myself questioning why the leading actors chose to be part of such a production. The storyline seemed unfounded, focusing on achieving success through unethical means. After watching the movie, I couldn't recall a single memorable scene or moment. Overall, I believe there are far better quality short films available on YouTube that are more deserving of your time.

The whole movie is talking about the malpractice as it's name, even they can present it a funny way instead it goes with a serious tone.

Thundu was a great chance missed to make a film about an Indian/Mallu Hoke Moseley.

Thundu is mostly about the mid life crisis of a police constable (played by Biju Menon) which begins when his son is caught copying in an exam. It is also about the internal politics and hierarchy in Kerala police - some of the antics of the incompetent police force reminded me of the movie Buffalo Soldiers (2001).

But the director and script writer are aiming for commercial success and the horrendous background score by Gopi Sunder bestows a feel good aura upon the relentless travails of an incompetent police officer. The scene where the depressed police constable narrates the tale about his horrible childhood to his son signals to me that the director and writer wanted to make some other movie but messed it up because their artistic ambitions were curtailed by commercial compulsions.

Biju Menon does a good job as the police constable. The rest of the cast including Shine Tom Chacko and Unni Maya Prasad (how does she even get movies?) are unremarkable at best.

Some of the sub-plots were ridiculous - especially the one involving the dog. Nothing even remotely fun about that part. What were they thinking?

This movie is super bad and lacks flow in its storyline. It is a jumbled mess. You are thrown right into a weak scenario without proper introduction of the characters and you are left to fill the puzzle and find story in the movie. The background score was horrible and annoying. I don't understand how they thought it is a comedy movie. In fact, you will feel depressed and pity for the people who worked on it. I expected a better storyline from big stars like Biju Menon. I haven't seen such a weak movie in Malayalam industry in a long time. In my humble opinion, your life will be better if you don't waste your time watching this movie.

I don't think non malayalis would like this . Writing this to malayali audience. The quality of this movie is top notch.. every single shot is beautiful.. Dollyzoom, tarantino shot, macro shots everything is so mesmerizing.. As a person who likes film making, i felt this was an unusual stylish making for a Malayalam movie.. Loved it a lot.. Music is good, the making is good.. the story must be too thin for most of the people ,but for me , the non linear story telling and quality shots made it a visual treat for my eyes.. Didn't feel like its a debut film , of the director . This kinda no brainer movies should not be watched trying to find logic in it.. definitely a popcorn flick..

I want to clarify about the negative reviews even though our society is filled with such an honest persons but some of them were cheats that's not the point of the movie. This movie is taken for the entertainment purpose only not take it to the heart Taiwanese movie bad genius also came with the same concept but it differs from the pov. So don't go to research the movie just enjoy the madness that all. Just a simple movie that makes you smile without hesitation with very good making even though some characters are not bunched with movie still its a good film once you see the movie as a movie. Thanks.
