Worst Malayalam movies I've watched in 2020 and 2021

 Top of the morning to the readers. So I'm really excited to write about this topic cause I like to consider myself as a good movie critic and I love watching movies so this is perfect for me. I started watching a lot of movies in the last year ( I bet everyone did ) Because we had this small thing called Covid 😅. My family has this ritual where we take turns in choosing the genre every week. Even though we saw plenty of really good movies there will always be rot in a bunch of good fruits. So I'm here to warn you guys against those. 

Disclaimer: All these reviews I'm about to give are just my personal opinion so it doesn't mean that you will not like the movie too. Please don't hate the movie solely based on my word. Do check the movie out and write in the comments if you liked them or why you think my judgment was wrong. We all can correct our mistakes with open mind 💓



1. Anveshanam

     Plot:  It starts with a kid being admitted to the hospital and there is a strong doubt that he has been abused. The police come right away to investigate the truth behind this mystery but get into more trouble when the kid dies on the hospital bed.

Once I read the plot on Wikipedia I was thrilled to watch this movie. Cause I really love a classic whodunnit? But what starts as a tactical investigation gets lower down by irrelevant scenes and twists plus the timestamps they show does not make any sense! The movie seems to struggle to pick a side, a viewer can tell that the director is juggling between two important topics and chooses neither. Towards the end, the movie fails to deliver what it seems to be struggling for, the movie ends with a failed message focusing on the wrong side of the issue. Emotional value tends to take precedence over logical thoughts resulting in a 100-minute mess you wish you did not watch. 








2. Forensic 

Plot:  When a psychotic murderer sets out on a killing spree, Samuel, a medico-legal advisor, uses his forensic skills to unravel the truth behind the heinous deeds.

I planned on watching this movie because I really love the crime/thriller genre and tovino Thomas's acting. The movie tries to be smart but fails in many places. There are too many characters so they get really less screen time and there are many unwanted twists and turns. Plus the writing is poor too, The Mamtha character is tried to be portrayed strict but comes out as one of the dumbest characters ever and the medico-legal advisor is smarter than Sherlock and finds everything far ahead of the police. The kid scenes are too much gore which makes the viewer uneasy even though it is a crime film. The main antagonist is not fit to be a psychopath at all. His motives are too weak and too many plot holes which will leave you questioning why you chose this movie?












3. Anugraheethan Antony

Plot: A happy-go-lucky boy named Antony disappoints his father, who used to be a teacher. The latter brings home two puppies to show his son how grateful animals can be. Antony, who hates puppies, takes every opportunity to disturb them.

Before watching this movie I was on a spree of watching crime/thrillers/horror. So I thought that I'd have a break from crime and watch some feel-good movies. So I chose this one and it disappointed me. After reading the plot I came to a conclusion that it is going to be kind of like a tug of war between the dogs and Antony but at last, they will get together and he will become responsible more. But all I got was an unconvincing story ( If there is a story at all? ). Unnecessary threads/situations. As a viewer, I was confused about whose story it was. Was it a love story? Or the dog's story? Or was it about father-son bonding? A bunch of loosely bound concepts. Too many slow scenes. The movie is trying too hard to be a tear-jerker.



Okay! So that's the three Malayalam movies that I despise. Even though these were bad I watched a lot of movies which were great and I really enjoyed watching so I'll make a post about the best movies I've watched in the near future. If you dig that idea then do comment below. 


Until then,
Truly Greg ❤

Underrated artists that I think should deserve much love

 Hallo! This is my third post on this account and I have run out of ideas to write. 😅 As I have written in my post about podcasts, I mentioned that I like to write blogs while listening to something. Either it's music or stories. As I was writing the previous one, My friend asked me what I was doing when I told her that I was listening to music, she asked me what song? When I replied with the artist she told that She didn't know who I was talking about and that I had a weird taste in music. That's when it clicked to me that there are so many artists waiting for their songs to get popular. They pour their heart into it and we just criticize them without giving a second thought. In short, These are my favorite artists who I think are very underrated. 💚 1. Sub Urban Daniel Virgil Maisonneuve known professionally as Sub urban , is an American singer, songwriter, producer, and songwriter.
