James Movie Review: A fitting ode to Power Star Puneeth Rajkumar
Director chethan kumar's james starring late actor puneeth rajkumar, sarath kumar and priya anand is a stylish thriller. james is puneeth rajkumar's swan song and a fitting tribute..

Watching a posthumous release is always cathartic. Especially, if it's a film starring an ever-smiling person like Puneeth Rajkumar, you can't help but give in to nostalgia. Puneeth Rajkumar would have been 47 years old today, March 17. While he passed away in October 2021, his fans gathered to celebrate their idol one last time. And, James doesn't disappoint.
James doesn't take time to delve into the story. Director Chethan Kumar jumps into the plot right from the first frame. We are introduced to the main villains, who belong to the drug mafia. In comes Santhosh Kumar AKA James, who runs a security agency called J Wings. He has been hired to rescue a rich businessman's daughter, captured by his rivals. Only Santhosh Kumar is willing to take the risk. And he does the job to perfection.
Soon, Santhosh is hired by the Gayakawad family to provide security. He earns their trust by showing his willingness to sacrifice his life in order to save them. But, Santhosh has a past. And he is here for revenge. Why is Santhosh so stiff? What about his family and why does he take revenge? These questions form the plot of James.
James is an out-and-out star vehicle and it completely belongs to Power Star Puneeth Rajkumar. The director has done a wonderful job with the introduction scene of Puneeth. We don't really get to see him for 10 minutes. Even when he comes on screen, the visuals are blurred. It makes you eager to get a look at the star. And with a stunning car chase sequence, Puneeth Rajkumar comes alive on screen. Hoots and whistles follow.
It is a bittersweet experience to see Puneeth Rajkumar doing what he did best. From enacting emotional sequences to nailing difficult dance steps, he has given his all to James. We get to see cameos from his elder brothers, Shivarajkumar and Raghavendra Rajkumar. There is a sense of melancholy when we look at the entire Rajkumar family coming together for a film. Then, it hits you that this will never happen again.
Puneeth Rajkumar owns the film. James has its fair share of problems. For example, the pace of the first half is slow and only Puneeth saves it with his charm. It is during the intermission, when Puneeth's character undergoes a transformation, that you get invested in the story. The flashback portions and climax are tastefully done.
Sarath Kumar, Srikanth Meka and several other villains in the film did their best. So did Priya Anand, who has a meaty role to play. Music director Charan Raj's work enhanced the overall impact of the film.
There are a few scenes in the film where the makers used computer graphics to bring Puneeth Rajkumar alive on screen. These scenes do give you a reality check that the generous man is no more... That James was his last film as a leading man. Fare thee well, Puneeth Rajkumar!
3 out of 5 stars for James.
James is currently running in theatres.

If the song, Mazhaye mazhaye from the directorial debut of Sujith Vaassudev, James and Alice , got you drenched in that romantic cloudburst along the all-too-familiar lanes of Fort Kochi, rest assured, that's all the kitschy romance you're going to get. What you see later is an afterthought of romance, through the marital disharmony of James (Prithviraj) and Alice (Vedhika).
When the film starts, there's no romance; they are married and coping. Alive, but kicking hard against the wall of denial that seems to have fast risen between them. The routine saga of the interplay between busy schedules and unmanageable lives fill up the first half, where the couple are on the verge of breaking free. Taking a leaf out of the tightrope walk shown off by the power couple in Mani Ratnam's Alaipayudhe , the story seems to be taking a brisk walk down the predictable lane, but stops short at the sly wink of the divine presence standing right on the divider.
Here's where the story takes a leap of faith and goes off the beaten track. The narrative does take you for a spin around ideas of life and death, but over time, there are very few directors who've pulled off ideas like these with panache, be it death of the main protagonist or waking the dead. Sujith Vaassudev, despite an honest attempt, gives up at the end of the journey, where redirecting the viewer who has already seen the movie's end in her mindscape would have been a far better idea.
![james-and-alice-movie-review4 james-and-alice-movie-review4](https://img.onmanorama.com/content/dam/mm/en/entertainment/review/images/2016/May/5/james-and-alice-movie-review4.jpg.image.470.246.jpg)
The story offers a fine twist midway, but slowly starts to drawl and extend its foreseeable ending, which becomes the major setback. For a film that has put all its energy into relationships and transient life, the narrative could have been more nuanced with a fine-tuned body language. It could have broken the monotony and brought in some intrigue with Prithviraj and Vedhicka playing up the subtlety of language to such good effect.
Prithiviraj has kept it simple, and it goes well with the quiet persona of his character. He is especially perceptive when situation demands only a quiet ruffle of emotions. Vedhicka's character is etched out well; she's the one that doesn't make vocal her demands out of life, but is well watchful of how often she has to give in. The strength of the character is again, a dormant self, which she has capably executed. Sai Kumar and Vijayaraghavan bring in the right measure of confidence to the script with their presence. 'Peter' works his charm as well. The friend/confidante/colleague of Prithviraj, Parvathy Nair, could have mouthed at least a few insightful pointers from the advertising point of view, which would have saved her from being just a pretty face.
![james-and-alice-movie-review2 james-and-alice-movie-review2](https://img.onmanorama.com/content/dam/mm/en/entertainment/review/images/2016/May/5/james-and-alice-movie-review2.jpg.image.470.246.jpg)
Beautiful cinematography with a blob of green in every frame, aerial landscapes that blow crunchy fresh air is the high point of the film. Gopi Sundar has picked the emotive elements, and deftly planted a good song here and there.
![james-and-alice-movie-review5 james-and-alice-movie-review5](https://img.onmanorama.com/content/dam/mm/en/entertainment/review/images/2016/May/5/james-and-alice-movie-review5.jpg.image.470.246.jpg)
An exceedingly slow-paced film, with less humour or other remarkable agents, James and Alice isn't everyone's cup of tea. The feather touch of something celestial keeps it engaging, but the magic, sadly wanes.
Rating: 2.5/5

Kaanekkaane movie review: Riveting cinema with a contentious take on lapses of conscience
The heart and soul of Kaanekkaane is Suraj Venjaramoodu who has had an incredible journey in recent years from character artiste to leading man.
![Kaanekkaane movie review: Riveting cinema with a contentious take on lapses of conscience Kaanekkaane movie review: Riveting cinema with a contentious take on lapses of conscience](https://images.firstpost.com/wp-content/uploads/2021/09/tovino-suraj-640.jpg?im=FitAndFill=(596,336))
Language: Malayalam
Kaanekkaane is not easy to slot. It is at one level a thriller, but an unconventional addition to that genre since the big reveal comes much before the climax. The reason for this narrative structure is evident: the mystery-that-was-not-initially-considered-a-mystery is pivotal to the plot, but at its core, this film is less about the suspense around that element than it is a study of human psychology.
Directed by Manu Ashokan whose debut feature was the excellent Parvathy-starrer Uyare (2019), Kaanekkaane ’s effectiveness hinges on its meticulously measured incremental revelations about its central trio. Manu and writers Bobby and Sanjay (who also wrote Uyare ) are determined not to paint any of them as an all-out villain or angel, which is the entire point of the film, the source of its brilliance but also its Achilles heel since this determination leads to a disputable equivalence being suggested between two characters. This contentious comparison calls for a long discussion, but the film nevertheless remains riveting from start to finish, not just as a whodunwhat but also with the gradual unravelling of the moral questions it raises.
It begins with a lightly gray-haired Paul (Suraj Venjaramoodu) buying chocolates, candles and matches at a roadside store. The latter are for a visit to a cemetery, the chocolates are for his grandson Kuttu (Alok Krishna).
Paul next arrives at a house and the door is opened by a pregnant young woman. She addresses him as Papa but he seems to know little about her and they are clearly uneasy with each other. We gradually learn that she is Sneha (Aishwarya Lekshmi), wife of Allen (Tovino Thomas) who was earlier married to Paul’s late daughter Sherin (Shruti Ramachandran) who died in an accident .
In a quiet and unhurried manner, the narrative travels back and forth between the past and present to establish Paul’s easygoing equation with Sherin, the father-son-like bond between Paul and Allen, Paul’s quest for justice for Sherin, how Allen and Sneha met, the load on the grieving Allen’s mind and the inexplicable force gnawing at their relationship. The direction and Abhilash Balachandran’s fluid editing ensure that there are no obvious heralds of these shifts in time, yet spotting a shift becomes an enjoyable exercise without being a strain.
Each scene adds a new piece to the puzzle, while the music by Ranjin Raj is used to enhance the film’s enigmatic atmosphere and air of intense sadness.
Kaanekkaane is about how lives can be altered forever with a single decision, how guilt or bitterness can consume people, about the pulls, pushes and complexities of relationships, and how in a moment of weakness even an ordinary human being might be capable of shocking, even uncharacteristic, morally repugnant deeds.
This brings us to the one issue with the film. Two persons in Kaanekkaane indulge in briefly terrible conduct at separate instants in time. It is not impossible to believe that real people might behave similarly, but it is troubling that the storytelling implies an equivalence between their actions. The first was criminally heartless, compounded by a pile-up of lies, and the progression towards that final act is inadequate; the second is a momentary, believable and relatable lapse of conscience with a build-up towards it that, while not justifying it, does help us understand how it might have happened.
The forgiveness that comes in the end is dependent on this duo viewing each other as equally culpable. In reality it is likely that they might have arrived at this conclusion, but the problem is that the film itself appears to take the stand that they are.
Bobby and Sanjay are stalwarts of Malayalam cinema, and up to that second where these two individuals are equated by implication, the narrative is flawless. Here though, it feels like convincing characterisation has taken a backseat to the larger point that Kaanekkaane aims to make.
It does not help this turn of events that the writing of Sherin is not as detailed as the others, nor is her relationship with Allen fleshed out as thoroughly as the rest. The sudden revving up of emotions and the pointedly elevated sound design in the last scene also do not match the understated tone of the film until then.
While this debate continues, it must be acknowledged that Kaanekkaane is gripping and beautifully acted every step of the way.
Tovino and Aishwarya are as immersed in their roles as they usually are, making it hard to unequivocally pass judgement against their characters. Although very different films, Kaanekkaane is a worthy follow-up to the electric chemistry they conjured up on screen in Mayaanadhi (2017).
The supporting characters in this film are also well cast and well played.
The heart and soul of Kaanekkaane , however, is Suraj Venjaramoodu who has had an incredible journey in recent years from character artiste to leading man.
If you thought it was not possible for him to outdo his own performances in Android Kunjappan Version 5.25 , Vikruthi and this year’s pan-India rage, The Great Indian Kitchen , you thought wrong. Venjaramoodu seems to be in possession of a secret weighing instrument on which he determines the optimum quantum of emotions to express on screen without the effort showing. His perfectly calibrated acting in this film is epitomised by that conversation in which he tells Allen about the life he had planned for himself if Sherin had been alive. He broke my heart in that scene.
There is a lot to recommend in Kaanekkaane , and right on top of that list are two words: Suraj Venjaramoodu.
Kaanekkaane is streaming on SonyLIV.

Antony review: Joju George and Joshiy deliver an action-packed entertainer with a predictable story
Joju George is the star performer in 'Antony'. His swag, dialogue delivery, and action scenes are brilliant. Kalyani Priyadarshan impresses as Ann Mary.

Joju George is the show-stealer!

- Music: Jakes Bejoy
- Runtime: 2 hours 27 minutes

Malayalam actor Joju George and director Joshiy are back after their successful movie Porinju Mariyam Jose (2019).
Joshiy, yet again, makes a movie with his old crew of Porinju Mariyam Jose . But this time, “action” takes a front seat.
Antony has a normal story and deals with the emotional connection between Antony and Ann Mary (Kalyani Priyadarshan).
The movie has an interesting plot. But as the story progresses, it becomes a normal affair. Let’s see why:
![james malayalam movie review Joshiy directorial Antony](https://thesouthfirst.com/wp-content/uploads/2023/12/Joshiy-directotial-Antony-205x300.jpg)
Joshiy’s directorial ‘Antony’. (Supplied)
The film starts with Antony (Joju George) killing a local goon named Xavier (Tiny Tom).
Ann Mary is Xavier’s daughter and Asha Sharath appears as Ann Mary’s mother Jessy. Ann Mary loses her mother in an accident. She becomes an orphan and Antony becomes her local guardian.
Father Paul Kattakayam (Chemban Vinod Jose) takes the initiative to protect Ann Mary.
Antony is the friend of Father Paul who is a priest in Avaran City — a fictional village in South Kerala.
Antony is the person who solves every issue in the village. His camaraderie with the priest is one of the highlights of the movie.
There are many characters in the film. Avaran City gets its name from Avaran (Vijayaraghavan) who was once the don and a resident. He is now old and is looked after by Maya (Nyla Usha), a home nurse.
Avaran was a saviour for Antony when the latter lost his parents and siblings.
Avaran City is now taken care of by Antony as he is the local don.
A boxer and a college-going girl, Ann Mary creates problems in her college. She initially doesn’t like Antony, but has a change of heart over the period and stays in his house. She also considers him her father figure.
As in any movie, Antony has a plot that has negative characters who plan to kill Antony.
How he overcomes these obstacles to live happily with Ann Mary forms the crux of the story.

Women get priority.
![james malayalam movie review Kalyani Priyadarshan and Joju George in Antony](https://thesouthfirst.com/wp-content/uploads/2023/12/Kalyani-Priyadarshan-and-Joju-George-in-Antony-240x300.jpg)
Kalyani Priyadarshan and Joju George in ‘Antony’. (Supplied)
Female characters get good screen space in Antony . Kalyani Priyadarshan plays a meaty role as Ann Mary who is a boxer.
The director gives utmost importance to her character. The actor does some good action sequences. She looks energetic in both action and emotional scenes.
Nyla Usha as Maya, the home nurse, is decent. Her scenes with Avaran have come out well.
Asha Sharath is a smart choice for the role of Ann Mary’s mother Jessy. She takes advantage of a crucial situation in her life after her husband’s death.
The background music by Jake Bejoy and the action scenes are some of the takeaways. However, the script doesn’t give depth to some characters.
Antony has the appeal of a mass hero movie, which is aimed at enthraling a normal cinema-going audience.
Director Joshiy, a master craftsman, delivers a decent product with a predictable story.

Joju george blows you away.
![james malayalam movie review Kalyani Priyadarshan in Antony](https://thesouthfirst.com/wp-content/uploads/2023/12/Kalyani-Priyadarshan-in-Antony-300x139.jpg)
Kalyani Priyadarshan in ‘Antony’. (X)
Joju George is the star performer in Antony . His swag, dialogue delivery, and action scenes are brilliant.
Kalyani Priyadarshan impresses as Ann Mary. It’s good to see the young actor play meaty roles like that in her previous movie Sesham Mike-il Fathima (2023) where she appeared as a football commentator.
Nyla Usha as Maya once again reunites with Joshiy after Porinju Mariyam Jose . Her looks and chemistry with Joju George have come out well. She plays a pivotal role in the climax scene.
Vijayaraghavan adds another feather to his cap. The veteran actor is pretty effortless as Avaran.
Chemban Vinod Jose as the priest is decent.
Jinu Joseph, as Lawrence, is good.
Sarath Appani, as Keecheri Simon, does his best.
However, all the negative characters are overshadowed by Antony’s character.

Antony is an action entertainer that engages the audience throughout.

Malayalam music's massive growth: What's driving this phenomenal rise?
Spotify playlist Hip Hop Malayalam grows by over 300 per cent over the last one year
![james malayalam movie review Nirmal Jovial](https://img.theweek.in/etc.clientlibs/theweek/global-clientlibs/clientlibs-general/resources/images/placeholder-img.png)
In the 2012 Malayalam blockbuster Thattatthin Marayathu , the protagonist is a hopeless romantic who makes desperate efforts to woo a girl. At one point, he and his sidekick encounter a slender youth in dark glasses who delivers the bad news that they have competition―a stud named Imthias is also trying to woo her. “He is gonna screw you guys,” the youth warns them.
The youth was played by Sushin Shyam, who is now a rockstar music director in the Malayalam film industry. Two years after Thattatthin Marayathu , he began churning out hits―from soulful melodies to straight-up headbangers―that have been heralding excellent news for the Malayalam music industry.
Sushin is a former member of the thrash metal band The Down Troddence, popularly known as TDT. As music director, he has come to be an important bridge between two streams of Malayalam music―film-driven work and indies. Songs composed by him have helped obscure artistes achieve mainstream recognition. They have also been attracting millions of listeners across the globe every month on platforms like Spotify.
Sushin is a standard-bearer of the Malayalam music industry’s remarkable rise in recent times. Recently, on the fifth anniversary of its launch, the streaming giant Spotify unveiled some intriguing statistics about how Malayalam music has been performing well despite its financial limitations. “Since the launch, the consumption of music from India on Spotify has grown significantly globally, with 85 per cent year-on-year growth in 2023 alone,” Dhruvank Vaidya, Spotify India’s head of music and podcast, told THE WEEK. “The growth in consumption spans several local languages, with Malayalam being the fastest-growing [Indian language] for music consumption worldwide, growing more than 5,300 per cent since launch, followed by Telugu, Tamil, Punjabi and Hindi.”

Vaidya says Spotify’s flagship Malayalam language playlist, ‘Hot Hits Malayalam’, has grown by more than 200 per cent in the past one year. The playlist ‘Trending Now Malayalam’ is apparently the most listened-to playlist among south Indian languages.

Sushin has become, arguably, the chart-topping Malayalam artiste. His nine-track album for Aavesham , the Fahadh Faasil mobster-comedy that recently became a blockbuster, was third in Spotify’s global list of biggest album debuts in the April 19 weekend, just below Taylor Swift’s The Tortured Poets Department and Pearl Jam’s Dark Matter . For the album, Sushin collaborated with many indie artists, including Dabzee, MC Couper and HanuMankind. In Sushin’s words, “the audience of Malayalam music has evolved”. “The new generation is into hip hop,” he said.
![156-Vedan 156-Vedan](https://img.theweek.in/content/dam/week/week/magazine/theweek/leisure/images/2024/5/18/156-Vedan.jpg)
Spotify numbers show this shift. “Our playlist Hip Hop Malayalam has grown by over 300 per cent in the last year alone,” said Vaidya.
Streaming platforms like Spotify, JioSaavn, Gaana, Wynk Music, Amazon Prime Music and YouTube, as well as social media platforms, have been transforming music consumption in India, democratising music distribution and making independent music from various languages more accessible. The surge in Malayalam hip hop is linked to this shift, and to the increased reach that Malayalam films have now outside Kerala.

Malayalam had its first taste of hip hop in 2004, when singer-composer Jassie Gift mixed reggae and rap for his chart-busting album for the film 4 The People . In 2009, artistes Rajeev M. and Haris Saleem founded the alternative hip-hop collective Street Academics, which fostered the fledgling Malayalam rap scene. In 2019, the mainstreaming of Malayalam hip hop gained momentum with the success of songs such as ‘Pani Paali’ by actor-singer Neeraj Madhav, ‘Voice of the Voiceless’ by Vedan, and ‘Malayali Da’ by Thirumali. Spotify commenced its India operations the same year.

The pandemic was a golden opportunity for indie artistes, especially hip-hoppers. With the film industry ceasing to churn out music, these free-spirited artistes could showcase their work. Shambhu Ajith, aka MC Couper, a hip-hopper from Thiruvananthapuram who is a law graduate and former sports journalist, said he and other artistes could break into the scene during this period. “I had been writing verses in hip-hop style since my college days, but it wasn’t until I quit my job in 2019 and returned to my hometown that things started to change,” said Couper. “Collaborating with my music-producer friend Parimal Shais on a track (‘Nerchappaattu’) gave me confidence to take music seriously. As I delved into music in 2019, I realised the power of social media and YouTube. When Covid struck, more people turned to social media for entertainment, including discovering new music.”
Only a few such as rapper Fejo could establish themselves in the mainstream before the pandemic. But the lockdown-related surge in online activity led to an influx of new artistes. “The indie scene exploded, with its ripple effect becoming evident in both films and music festivals after the pandemic,” said Couper.
Filmmakers began weaving indie works into their films. The 2022 blockbuster Thallumala , for instance, had the hit track ‘Manavalan Thug’ by Dabzee and SA, which blended hip hop with elements of the Mappila Muslim culture in Malabar. Hip hop even became a narrative tool, as seen in director Krishand’s police procedural Purusha Pretham (2023), which has a rap battle unfolding along with the conflict between the protagonist and the antagonist. The battle features tracks composed by Ajmal Hazbulla and sung by MC Couper, Fejo and J’mymah. “The fact that our audience has embraced hip hop marks a significant change,” said Sushin.
The scene is evolving fast. Within Malayalam hip hop, Malabari hip hop has become a sub-genre with the success of tracks such as ‘Malabari Banger’ by the collective Manushyar, and ‘Kaayi’ by Baby Jean. “Ultimately, hip hop is about embracing one’s identity,” said Couper. “Audiences crave authenticity and originality. These artists have embraced their unique style, doubling down on it and presenting it in a refreshing manner. Just as hip hop evolves globally into various subgenres, we are witnessing its evolution in the Malayalam hip hop scene as well.”
James Thakara, frontman and lead singer of the band Thakara, which blends folk, funk, pop and progressive and alternative rock, told THE WEEK that Kerala is witnessing the “golden age of indie musicians”. He could well be right: Early this year, the Malayalam film industry had its biggest pan-India hit ever, Manjummel Boys , which had an album imbued with indies.
Sushin, who composed music for Manjummel Boys , told THE WEEK that he treated the whole project “like an indie album”. The four-track album had him collaborating with rapper Vedan, lyricist Anwar Ali and singers Pradeep Kumar and Urmila Krishnan.
“These are not cinematic songs,” says Sushin, “and people are embracing this change.”
