Money Ratham

My review: Money Ratnam


"Money Ratnam" is a typical mass masala entertainer that gets released during a festive season. Written by Anil Narayanan and Ajith C Lokesh, movie is directed by Santhosh Nair. Fahad Fazil is in his finest form delivers yet another entertaining performance in this road movie that keeps the audience in good humor for about two hours. Though the movie gets more and more over the top and logic-less towards the end, audience are treated to a good measure of fun uptil then that one can overlook these frailties that crop up.  

Movie moves at a good pace with the humor having a constant underpinning throughout the narration. There are quiet a few sequences that keeps you laughing out loud and few others which are down right silly. But the pleasantness that the movie exudes make it for a happy viewing. It is not a path-breaking effort by any  means but not a head-breaking one either. 


As mentioned earlier Fahad Fazil is into his elements. With every outing of his he is just growing in his stature as a versatile actor. This movie is a revelation for him to showcase his mastery over comedy which is so effortlessly done. Nivedha Thomas has nothing much to do but with whatever opportunity she has got she acquaints herself well. Aarthi has a nice cameo.

Movie is technically brilliant. Neil D'Cunha's shots are glossy. On the whole, "Money Ratnam" is a one time watch, two hours of sublime entertainment, worth the money. 

Bottomline: Fahad is having fun, we too. 

3/5
