ഊഴം (2016)

I was excited that Prithviraj's Onam Malayalam release Oozham [Turn] was coming to Chicago, but I was forewarned that it wasn"t his best film. I didn"t care. I was still excited to see Prithviraj on the big screen for the first time. I have not yet seen writer director Jeethu Joseph's previous films Drishyam (Mohanlal) or Memories (Prithviraj). From the reviews I'veread, and especially this savage 1/2 star take down by Anna Vetticad, the disappointment in Oozham is particularly acute because Jeethu Joseph's previous films have been so great. I didn"t hate Oozham like Anna, but I certainly don"t love it either. It's okay " and with Prithviraj, I also would expect better than okay. The man has made what, 100 films? I'veonly been watching the cream of the crop, and they can"t all be at the level of Mumbai Police.
