Mathai Kuzhappakaran Alla Review

Cast: Jayasurya, Mukesh, Lakshmi Gopalaswamy, BhamaDirection: Akku AkbarGenre: ComedyDuration: 2 hours 30 minutes
Synopsis: Mathai (Jayasurya) is a naive idealist who is an auto driver by profession. He takes it upon himself to solve the marital problems of a couple (Mukesh and Lakshmi Gopalaswamy)
Review: It seems Akku Akbar has attempted to explore a handful of very relevant subjects with Mathai Kuzhappakkaran Alla - the disturbing statistics of divorces in our society, legal loopholes as well as men's rights. To his credit, the plight of a harassed husband has hardly ever been explored in Malayalam cinema. However, the attempt falls flat and the entire movie would seem like one-long sermon interposed with film sequences, which is very biased. At times, a viewer might think whether it is attending a marriage counselling class or a film.
Mathai (Jayasurya) is a do-gooder who wishes to help those around him and solve their problems, but he ends up doing more harm than good. One day, Mathai witnesses the friction between a doctor friend (Dr Nandakumar-Mukesh) and his wife (Geetha- Lakshmi Gopalaswamy).
He takes it upon himself to solve their issues with the help of his fiancee (Bhama). The film starts off on a promising note with Jayasurya delivering his usual funny act that is natural and you feel you are about to have some fun. But all too soon,
