'3 Dots' - Review



Dear Friends,
'3 Dots' has nothing offers entertainment in all manners and it highly disappoints you. The film bags all the attention in before its release because it is a second venture of Sugeeth, the director of one of the Megahits in 2012 'Ordinary' with the well accepted actors team 'Kunchako Boban and Biju Menon'. Unfortunately, Director Sugeeth's goal isn't into the net. 3 Dots released 22/03/2013 and its opinions are mostly negative.

Story
Three Dots,  Vishnu (Kunchako Boban), Louie (Biju Menon) and Pappan (Prathap Pothan) are three inmates in a prison and became friends. A doctor named Isaac (Narein) comes there for counselling and helps them to lead a good life. After their release from the jail, they start business to live on. Their life is well under way, Dr Isaac having some problems and three dots tries to help him and some unexpected events happen.

3 Dots -  Story isn't follows a proper way which is rolling like a dice when it scores more points on the game, that's the main parts even the twist and climax (outdated and predictable). The first half lacks the pace and makes u tedious and second half is just ok.

There is no amusing techniques offers from the team 'Kunchako Boban and Biju Menon'. Kunchako Boban's performance returns again to his 'romantic boy image' and he has just handling his role. Biju Menon grabs your attention with his strong activities and he is one and only flashes some humorous situations in '3 Dots'. Prathap Pothan is included with the lead team and he again proved as a 'nice performer', handled adequately and Narein is perfectly handling his role 'Dr.Isaac' (even his role much creates a predictable situation to the twist).  Actresses Janani Iyer and Anjana menon are added just for pairing up with the actors and they have nothing much to do.

'3 dots' is completely fall flat in the direction of Sugeeth and Rajesh Raghavan's script which offers plenty weak elements. Faisal Ali's visuals and lights are at best which is only benefit. V.Sajan's edit could have been better and Vidyasagar's soundtracks are just ok but the Bg scores like childish.

Grade:  'Weak' Dots
Rating:  2/5

'Red Wine' - Review


Dear Friends,
There is nothing intoxicates and exhilarating in Salaam Bapu's 'Red Wine' though is the good concept. The film is much higher expected thriller because is a combo of the complete actor Mohanlal and the youngest actors Fahad Fasil and Asif Ali. 'Red Wine' released today and is partially disappointed in the making style. Its opinions are mostly average.  

Story
C.V Anoop (Fahad Fasil), a communist and a drama artist who was murdered in an unusual situation at a lodge room. A police officer named Ratheesh Vasudevan (Mohanlal) who comes to probe into the case and he disclose the real culprit.    


Red Wine's story is exceptionally fantastic in thrillers; the first half keeps some answer less situations and more deviates to some thoughts which are good worthies for a nice thriller. But the film mostly drags in some needless scenes have more outstretched and the climax is wasted.


The fine performances of Mohanlal and Fahad Fasil, are more leading up to the thrilling moments in 'Red Wine'. But their acting aren't remarkable because the poor treatment of the film and actor Asif Ali's performance is seems to be repeating himself. The heroine characters of Anusree, Meghna Raj, Meera Nandan have nothing to do much except the others Miya and debut actress Maria John. T.G.Ravi, Sudhir Karamana, Suraj Venjaramoodu, Jayakrishnan, Sunil Sugatha etc. have done full justice to their roles.

'Red Wine' is fell behind in Salaam Bapu's direction which completely disappointed in its second half. The film's starting is good when Salaam shot the main factors even the simple things. But 'Red Wine' has a speciality; the investigation completely leading through the flashbacks of each characters which are closely linked. Besides as an investigation thriller Mamman.K.Rajan's script offers the friendship, social commitments and some significant issues but he couldn't correctly maintain it. Manoj Pillai's visuals are apt and Ranjan Abraham's edit, Bijipal's theme score and Bg correctly follows the script.

Grade:   Impotent 'Red Wine'
Rating:  2.5/5
