Dear Friends,
Director V.M.Vinu re-routed from his previous modus operandi and his new film 'Face 2 Face' outlining a crime thriller plot which handling well in first half, but in its Second Half he returns to his family films emotions, specially in Climax and End. What is more you doubt about that is it the climax and end part when the title shown 'directed V.M.Vinu', indeed. 'Face 2 Face', a 'Mammootty' starrer film which released 30/11/2012 and received mostly negative responses from the viewers.
Story
Balachandran (Mammootty) is under suspension from police service because of his strict approach in law & order and he enters in real estate business. During this period a murder of a famous young politician cum businessman happens in the city and it becomes an issue amongst the media. Authorities appoint an investigation team for this murder, but Balachandran parallelly and secretly investigates this case. See what happens then?
'Face 2 Face' is socially good story but it drawbacks are fully abounded in Second half - flashback scenes are lagging & exaggerating which totally fall flats the plot.
This is totally a Mammooty film for showing his dress sense and magnetic personality in situations with aplomb. Other characters of Sidique, Kalabhavan Mani and Mammukoya did notably. Actresses Ragini Trivedi and Roma have nothing much to do in this film. The youngsters performed well in their dance steps, but their scenes aren't adequate.
V.M Vinu and the script writer Manoj totally break the Second half with stone-washed boring emotions, Climax and End are neither Crime nor Sentiment. First Half keeps a good pace as a crime thriller. Face 2 Face only in the good graces of Ajayan Vincent's visuals. Cuts of Samjith MHD is just follows the script and Alphonse Joseph's Music is fair.
Grade: 'Face 2 Face' cocks-up in Second Half's 'Frame 2 Frame'
Rating: 2/5
