ReviewThis is the story of a despicable old man and a cursed son, livened up by some remarkable performances.CrisIf he lovingly called his father Appa, the way central Kerala Malayalis do, the older man would shout back, enthaada naari, Njoonju says. How could he then love his father, his Appan, he asks. Sunny Wayne looks like a lost man playing Njoonju, living a cursed life as the son of the most notorious man in that neighbourhood, Itty. With every single spat and outburst, Alencier Ley Lopez becomes the despicable Appan, formidable even when he is in bed, paralysed beneath the waist. Nearly everyone in the village wants him dead, and as the movie rolls, you can see why. Maju, director of the film, has given life to a breathtakingly original script, co-written with R Jayakumar. This has to be one of the best performances of both Alencier and Sunny,...
