Urumbukal Urangarilla
has come to the theatres silently, without creating much hype. And, sometimes such films work at the box office. The film maker would surely have had this in mind but falters at places.
This film is the progeny of Jiju Ashokan. The title conveys that thieves generally are awake in the night and they steal the valuables from others during this time.
Plot: Kelu Ashan is a thief who had retired and Benny is his student. There is the entry of another person and what happens next is a twist of suspense.
The flick, which is totally infused with humour, has really come out well. Chemban Vinod provides the right flavor of comedy and you can’t control your laugh at some scenes. His performance is virtually a backbone to the film. Vinay Fort,
Sudheer Karamana
, Champan Vinod, Ananya and Janaki also perform their parts well.
The director has cashed in on actors who earlier used to enact supporting roles in big budget films. He has extracted good performances from comparatively lesser known faces of Mollywood.
Jiju Ashokan and
Hari Narayanan
have penned the dialogues, and the characters are animated through their dialogues. Though the movie is full of humor it doesn’t fail to thrill us.
The background scoring and music of
Gopi Sundar
are ok and
Vishnu Narayan
has captured the night scenes well.
The film which runs in a good pace however faces a drag later. All the same it manages to brace up in the climax.
People who are occasional movie watchers find it hard to digest certain sequences. The movie is also dragging at some places. Music is below average and makes less impact. There is also double meaning in the dialogues, but pitiably this has become part and parcel of humorous films nowadays. The writing has some drawbacks.
Verdict: You can watch the film when you are in a lighter disposition.
