Angel John -- Very Usual Stuff.....

Even despite some negative reviews from my friends who watched Angel John if i decided to watch it ,the credit goes to recession that has left me with lots of time and minimum of other activities.I was one among the fifty guyz in theater, all free from the tortures of howls ,boos,and the spirited atrocities of fans.

The movie began introducing to you Maradona,another speciment of the careless youth,with his life going nowhere.Failing to catch up to the expectations of his parents in his character and studies this guy becomes a real nuisance to his family.The tolerance degree is finally crossed when he takes a loan of ten lakhs against the security of his house and finally ends up losing the money.From the reactions that follow this guy takes up the decision to end up his life and climbs up the light house.There appears the Angel that takes him back to life.An angel who talks (rather chats)over the cell fone to ladies and loved impressing them!!!!!There after its all about how this guy is taught about the values of life.

Direction wise Jayasurya desrves some credit in having selected a theme that would convey a message to the viewers.But how much of it gets successfully conveyed remains a very valid question.The plots ,the characters ,the execution all looked so unreal or renewed from past fantasy movies.Take for eg the character of Jagathi who has returned from Gulf is shown attempting for guinness records inorder to impress his wife and hence get her back (she had left him)!!!!
The national award winners music is a big let down this time.BGM sounded good though.
Shantaanu has performed credibly enough.Others in the casts are Okay though personally I felt Mohanlaal shouldnt have done this role(Just like i reviewed that Mammooty should'nt have done the Bhootham role).Mohanlaal does nothing different or new as angel and portrayed it just like another usual role.Jayasurya has put in real effort to satisfy fans and further loses his way in the second half .

On the whole Angel John is average with very minimum to offer.Even for Someone having as much free time as myself it wont be a great miss.
