Mr Fraud, the latest B
Unnikrishnan flick with Mohanlal
has a mysterious and suspense
packed heist plot that does not
raise its level to offer anything
thrilling nor exciting. We have
seen many conmen movies and
this is yet another conmen movie,
the only difference being the
Kovilakam backdrop taken to
narrate the plot. The saving grace
here is the screen presence of
Mohanlal in an otherwise pretty
ordinary and average flick.
The plot revolves around an
ancient Kovilakam where the
ownership of wealth or the
treasure of the Kovilakam is in
dispute and a group is trying to
rob the huge wealth stored in the
cellar of the Kovilakam.
The first half was entertaining and
kept up the suspense hidden with
mystery surrounding the various
characters especially the one
Mohanlal was enacting but the
second half that was a half baked
one along with the climax didn't
offer anything exciting nor did it
gave the film a perfect ending or
rather a thrilling ride we normally
expect from such films. For the
fans, its a masala fare with
Lalettan offering enough and
some of his dialogues with
reference to his previous hit films
went well the audience.
On the direction side, B
Unnikrishnan has adopted a
normal way but going too much hi
tech to tell the story reflected in
the script that became a complex
one to digest as it progressed.
Mohanlal without a name and
with many faces with his screen
presence was a treat to watch but
in terms of acting, there was
nothing that could test his acting
range here. The various make
overs were good except two; the
rock star one and the appearance
right at the fag end.

was Siddhique who impressed the
most along with Miya and
Saikumar. Vijay Babu as
Mohanlal's accomplice was just a
watcher here with nothing to do.
Sreeraman, Dev Gill, Devan,
Sathar and Ashvin Mathew also
formed part of the acting team
along with Gopi Sundar and
Balabaskar appearing in a cameo.
Music was ok and among them my
favourite is the Sada palaya
number. Background score was
not bad but at times it was too
heavy while cinematography was
on the positive side.
Overall, the film is an average one
for me that is ok for a one time
watch with the least of
expectations and 2.75
