Fantastic is an understatement to describe this movie and there's sooo much to say😃
-Vijayaraghavan sublimed the role by giving it a new definition. If it were an actual older actor, we wouldn't have to expect anything, but because it was Vijayaraghavan, it was exciting to see what he would bring to the table.
His walk, his talk, and mannerisms solidified his performance all the way. He really lived like an older person
-The plot was original as it centered on older people and addressed an extremely sensitive issue. So while watching, we were putting ourselves in Ichoy's and Ichamma's shoes, trying to figure out what we would do.
The movie also highlighted something important, it's not because older people have come to an advanced age that they no longer have rights, their needs should never be suppressed even if they only have few days to live.
-the screenplay was excessively rich in characters, it even put a spotlight on a dog & a cow friendship😆 Basil Joseph & Vineeth Sreenivasan intensified the humor with their awkward love-hate relationship. Ichoy's family was realistically structured with a daughter suffering from Alzeimer and a lost son
-What can we say about the direction and the cinematography? Ganesh didn't waste time, about 15min into the film, the climax was already ignited, and the fact that new faces were gradually added along the scenario, it made the story even more interesting
Anend C Chandran's attention to the littlest details and even the sound. Wow! We loved him in Bheesma Parvam and we love him in Pookkaalam.
