Review:

As we all know the movie was in the headlines for almost two and a half years,it had all the hype that it required.It had that much importance since because of the reunion of the deadly combo--M.T-Mammootty-Hariharan 20 years after their blockbuster 'Oru Vadakkan Veeragadha'.

Now coming to the movie,in simple words 'A Visual Xtravaganza'.For sure this film wud come under the ever best films being made in malayalam.It would not be much if anyone compares this movie to Mel Gibson's 'Braveheart'.The 3.15 hrs duration movie rememorises the brave epic of Kerala varma Pazhassi Thampuran and his historic rebellion against the mighty british.

In perfomance wise,There is no need to mention about mammootty.He is that much apt for that role.His lukz nd body language that much suits to the royal emperor.This time he has got a role that would be carved on malayalam film history.Another thrilling perfomance is from Sarathkumar as Edachena Kungan,He just shocked the audience.This would be his best role in his career till now.Manoj.K.Jayan and padmapriya are other names to be specified.The main point that differs Pazhassiraja from vadakkan veeragadha is that in the later it was one man show from mammootty,but this time it is a team effort.Actors who had even come in small roles have made terryfying perfomances.

Another gem of this movie is its art direction.Some shots like the horse running from water and mammooty offering soorya namaskaram was having world class,One of the best shots being picturised in indian cinema.War scenes were awesome,BGM was apt from the maestro,Music was too good especially 'aadiusha sandhya..'

The main name to be mentioned here is of Hariharan for making such a nice movie.Hats off to him.also for the producer for investing 27crores for a malayalam movie.In one word the movie can be described as "The International movie from malayalam"

Rating:Excellent[4.3/5]

Verdict:Sure blockbuster/Record breaking hit

Review:
Robinhood is all about a new age ATM Robbery and its storyline.The film starts with th introduction of th young nd handsome theif played by Prithviraj on his 'Work'.Later on th plot,the movie includes mostly the young team including Narein,Bhavana,Jayasurya,Lena and also has an extended star cast including Biju Menon,Janardhanan,Jafer idukki and so on..
As the film has been in the news as a joshiy film,it has all incredients of an usual joshiy film.The atm robbery tricks were executed in almost a nice way.In perfomance ways all actors hav given their full potentials to th film.
