Casanovva malayalam movie review
Last time when watched Arabiyum Ottakayum I have decided not to go for a Mohanlal movie as even I hated even the theatre which played the movie. But, just had an intuition that 'Casanovva' will not disappoint me so arrived at the theatre.
The story line of the movie is just simple. It’s all about ‘Casanovva’ who has a charismatic personality which makes him engage with ladies. He is the owner of an international chain of boutiques of the flowers ‘Casanova’s Eternal Spring’. He is a busy business man who flies from one country to another. He is surrounded by young pretties where ever he goes. As Casanovva arrives in Dubai to attend a marriage function meets four high-fi robbers (Abhishek, Shamsi, Arjun and Vikram) who were on the black list of the Interpol. As the four had been related to one of casanovva’s personal issue, he gets the support of Hanna (Lekshmi Rai) and Anne Mary(Roma) to track them down.
What was the problem with Casanovva and the robbers? Casanovva gets stuck in real love with Sameera (Shriya Sharan) who was a Salsa dance instructor. He falls in love with a girl who eventually gets killed by the robbery gang. What are the next plans of Casanovva? The rest is the movie.
What the movie had been projected to be didn’t feel on screen. It was hyped to be a block buster after Narasimham. The first hours of the movie is interesting and will impress the audience but the movie lagged a lot as the later hours seemed to be total disaster. The team behind Casannova had taken much effort during the last two years which has to be appreciated. The hard work behind the camera (cinematography) has to be mentioned here. None of the songs in the movie will make the audience dance to the tune.
In short if you liked Arabiuyum Ottakayum, the movie 'Casanovva' is recommended if you are interested to spend 3 hours before the screen. Or if you can't resist yourself spending money for the movie, other options other than 'Casanovva' are
• Recharge your mobile phone(Rs 100)
• Buy 1 kg of apple or orange
• Come home – Sleep well
Verdict – Just pass it
Rating – 5/10

comment on christian sisters, truth cannot be covered always
Shows the credibility of this site.
Casanova can be proud of one thing. It has produced the biggest villain(the bad guy) of all time in Malayalam films. But unfortunately he is called the hero of the film. Now i will put forth few questions to prove it. Its a simple game. Just give your choice. A or B.
(1) WHO IS A BIGGER VILLAIN?
A: A man who proudly claims that he has cheated and "screwed" at-least more than 2000+ girls.( forget their parents, their husbands, boyfriends, their pain,their future and their life) (Balan K Nair used to rape just two or three in a film to the maximum.)
B: Few youngsters who steals few museum antiques for some quick bucks end up killing a girl in an unfortunate incident.
A: A man who preaches about true love and make sure that he does not keep a girl for more than two weeks.
B: Few youngsters who instead of being thieves, take the risk to fall in love and fight with their best friends when they say a small bad thing about that girl.
A: A man who just get girls to his bed by wooing them with money and his high lifestyle..
B: A guy who risk his life and moves above a rope to get a gift for his love.
A: A man who take revenge by using two innocent girls lovable heart. He don't care about their love. Its just a game for him to take revenge.
B: A guy who stand for his love till his last moment, even after he knows that everything is over.
A: A man who claims that he fall in "true love" with a girl just because he couldn't get her into his bed cheaply like the others. (Wasn't that just a man's alter ego. ( what you have is sweet, what you don't is sweeter)
B: A guy who fall in love with a girl because he loves her completely and truly and cant turn his face to her love.
A: A man who thinks that a woman is nothing but an item for enjoyment and to get her into his bed you just need to learn some basic etiquette and manners.
B: A guy who risk his life till the end and goes to meet his love even though he knew that he may get caught or killed.
Well, now count the number of A and B
Result:
More A: I am sorry guys, they say that he is the hero of the film. You you say that he is the villain. Its not going to mix well. Stay away.
More B: Go and watch the film again. You will like it more.
Equal A and B: You will end up confused.
FYI:
Factors that does not matter for being a good film.
(1) BUDGET: Even if we say the story of "Krishnanum Radhayaum" for 17.5 crore, its the same movie. Who cares the hero used a caravan and stayed in a five star hotel.
(2) LOCATION: Even if we say the story of "Krishnanum Radhayaum" in Dubai, its the same movie.
(3) MARKETING: How can putting hundred banners of "Krishnanum Radhayaum" and spending 5 crore for marketing make any difference to the quality of the film?
(4) THEATER RELEASE NUMBER: Who cares if "Krishnanum Radhayaum" is realesd in 200 theater or four theaters . After all its the same movie.
(5)SIDE ROLES PLAYED BY MAIN ACTORS: Before, the brothers of Mamooty/ Mohanlal used to be Sidique/ Biju menon/ Vijaykumar/Manoj K Jayan/Sudeesh/ Ganesh etc. Now its the same role and same performance, but now played by other super stars like Dilleep/ Prithvi or Jayasoorya. (to make it look big)
(6) SUPER 16 CAMERA: I should tell this. Now we have few advancements in camera techniques like DI and Super 16 etc where we can shoot in ultra slow motions and it will look really beautiful( for first few times). ie the hero will look nice when he walks. But don't forget that the more important thing is where he is walking to. What if he is walking towards a toilet just to piss? The scene looks still good, but you will get pissed off.
(7) FILM NEWS: There is no news in entertainment world. ITS ALL PAID ADVERTISEMENTS
NB: No offense to "Krishnanum Radhayaum". With 21 crore spend and still when these guys couldn't engage me with their film and ended up being a bad movie, I really appreciate a man who made a film for 8 lacs and still manage to make what they did- a bad movie.
WHY DID I SAY THIS:
If we make such films hit by going to the theater, they will think that we malaylees are such fools. Then they will take few big hero's, go to a foreign locations, shoots some shots in super sixteen camera of them walking left and right or going in a Maybach or Ferrari. Then they will spends some crores in marketing and publicity and then releases it in hundred theaters. By the time you ask for the review the film will be hit and we becomes a fool one more time. The producers will walk away towards the bank laugh at us. ( just like an Adidas or Nike shoemaker who makes a shoe for 500rs and sells it for 5000rs laugh at the person who buys it)
NB: If Santhosh Pandint had got the date of Mohanlal to play the lead role for "Krishnanum Radhayaum" the channals who criticize him now would have poured crores to that project as satellite rights. BECAUSE THEY DON'T READ THE STORY OR SCRIPT. THEY PAY FOR THE ACTORS. This industry does not change until this change.
SAVE MALAYALAM FILMS. DEMAND FOR GOOD ORIGINAL MOVIES. DON'T GET CARRIED AWAY BY GIMMICKS.
donot come up to our expect.
It hurts when people use dialogs in the movies just go in line with the story while making falsified statements. Casanova says, girls become nuns because of poverty only.
On the other side you see convents like a Roman palaces and nuns walking in catwalk style. A poor depiction indeed.
