By
Smitha, oneindia.in: :
Thappana, directed by Johnny Antony and starring superstar Mammootty and Charmy
Kaur in the lead is like a whiff of fresh breeze in an industry where every
filmmaker wants to experiment with modern and urban plots (Salt
and Pepper, 22
Female Kottayam).
Though Thappana does
not boast of an unusual script, director Johnny Antony has added just the
right dose
of comedy, tears and action to make it a mass entertainer. Mamootty as usual
does not disappoint you down one bit!
Mammootty, who hasn't had a hit in a long time, has
targeted the family audience this festive season of Ramzan, and this time, the
actor seems
to have hit the bull's eye. The plot bear resemblance to Mammooty's hit Maayavi as
well.
Script by M Sindhuraj is decent and Johnny Antony has ensured to
weave a strong plot around the main characters. Music by Vidyasagar is good. Thappanais
produced by Milan Jaleel under the banner of Galaxy films.
Story
Samkutty (Mammootty) is a small time thief who gets into trouble
often and lands up in jail. In fact, the prison is like second home to him.
Once, during one of his release from jail, Samkutty happens to meet Marykutty
who got released from the women's cell. She was arrested for murdering somebody.
Samkutty decides to escort her home, but during the entire journey, Marykutty is
absolutely quiet and refuses to utter a word to him. She seems depressed, forlon
and lonely.
What follows is an interesting story about how the relationship
between the two 'very different people' develop.
Performances
Mammootty undoubtedly walks away with the cake in Thappana!
His comic timing, dialogue delivery and
expressions are flawless. He makes you laugh, cry and go through the entire
experience with him! Charmy Kaur is cute and performs well.
Murlai as usual is terrific.
Overall, Thappana is
Mammootty's comeback....It's an average film, and a must watch for all Mammootty
fans!
