Criticism of Kodathi Samaksham Balan Vakeel by the Times of India

History : Balakrishnan is a troubled lawyer with little career because of his stuttering and guilt-ridden past. But his sober and sober life is about to change with an affair in which he plays the role of pawn in a plot larger than anything for which he was prepared.

Revue : Written and Directed by B Unnkrishnan, Kodathi Samaksham Balan Vakeel is the first time the screenwriter-director joins Dileep. The choice of the actor is not surprising, as it is Balakrishnan's narrative about the redemption of being an outsider riddled with guilt in his own self-confidence. It is the redeeming narrative of a fallen hero that the film asks us to love.

Balakrishnan's guilt over his past made him a stutter and this also affected his career. But soon, he finds himself in a bigger conspiracy than anything he's ever wanted to be part of. Kodathi Samaksham Balan Vakeel is Balan's account of the redemption of guilt.

Siddique is at his best as Somashekharan Pillai, Balakrishnan's father. Apart from a few crbadist chauvinist dialogues, his comic timing and his refreshing interpretation of the father of a protagonist raises the film on his point of support. Aju Varghese is a character created to look like a cliché. But his performance is what saves the character gracefully. Since he's playing the nasty cop in Mayaanadhi, Harish Uthaman is settling into his character and proving that he's built to go to certain places. Artists like Priya Anand and Sajid Yahiya come, do a good job and go away. Akhil George, who directs the camera for Kodathi Samaksham Balan Vakeel, offers us crisp and beautiful frames, with substantial and quite obvious help from the arts department. The seemingly faded song, aside from the songs in the movie, is average.

The choice to cast Dileep is evident from the character's story, as this character is quite in his place. However, as Balakrishnan, Dileep seems slightly controlled and articulated in his performance. Suraj Venjarammood is back to play the selfish team mate who gets in trouble and draws everyone around him. This is the kind of character that he has long outgrown by his own virtue. However, history has its own pitfalls in that it tries too hard to sell a plot of conspiracy. From a Sherlock / Robert Landgon perspective, Balan is led to deduce a number of things based on neuro-linguistic programming (NLP), eye movements, body language and a photographic memory. You remember the movie 'The Tiger', where the kind of clues' vappachiyude legacy & # 39; continues to appear at the right time in the right place? It's something like this. And the rest is the kind of thrill and action needed to sell a story with a plot that the protagonists need to go out.

Kodathi Samaksham Balan Vakeel is a bbad thriller designed to please and please you. be impressed by the hero. It's asking you to love and root yourself for him, sometimes for sympathy and other times for his intelligence. It's a story that revolves entirely around this need to make you appreciate it and appreciate its Sherlockian intelligence.
