Joji

The total film is developing around a single family. A rich family. The plot is great. The story line is narrow and pitch perfect. All the actors does the great work. The screenplay is done well too. The main attraction of the film is the cinematography,art, and the background score. They given a great treatment with the bg score towards the scenes. Some the top angle shots are amazing. The climax is gives morality to the bad things is much notable. A different story yet again in malayalam cinema. Worth every minute.

Who knew that the mask worn during Covid times can be used as such an effective narrative device, hiding and screening the protagonist's Machiavellian intentions!

Dileesh Pothen's Joji is a tantalising tale of deceit, greed and family politics, told in painstaking detail by a director clearly on the top of his game.

On the flip side, Fahadh is seriously in danger of being typecast as the archetype of a scheming protagonist who is constantly in the grey area between right and wrong.

But after the fall from grace that was Irul, it is encouraging to see him back at his best, in a role tailor-made to play to his strengths.

Baburaj is a revelation in his best role since Salt N Pepper while the secondary characters played by Unnimaya Prasad, Shammi Thilakan, Basil Joseph and even the relative unknowns PK Sunny and Joji Mundakkayam all shine in equal measure.

Joji is a super fun, Tarantino-esque ride infused with copious amounts of dark humour. It is a nice departure from the feel-good style of Maheshinte Prathikaram and the quirkiness of Thondimothalum Driksakshiyum,

Recommended.

An another awesome film by Dileesh pothan an strong acting but every character in the is great special applause to fahadh fasil.

Speaking of the director's previous movies - Maheshinte Prathikaaram and Thondimuthal were classes apart.

The problem with Joji is there is an element of predictability lingering in the air, right from the start till the very end.

Characters have no great depth, all we know about Joji is he is frustrated with his life, but to what level and due to what reason is not clearly conveyed. Same goes with his accomplice Bincy.

Acting performances are good.

Movie has a steady pace and it does not drag.

Background score could have been scores better, all one remembers of the background music is that eerie western classical playing all the time, offering nothing fresh.

Overall an ok-ok watch !

The magic combo did it again. Great performance by the entire cast .Fahad and baburaj was top notch .Movie is a dark ,gritty ,twisted slow burn thriller great movie .
