Humaira Grant It’s not bad or unwatchable but despite the amplitude of the spectacle, the end result is underwhelming.

Arianna Moses Let me be very fair here, this is not the best movie in my opinion. But, this movie is fun, it has purpose and is very enjoyable to watch.

Erica Derrick By the time the dramatic fireworks start popping off, each one feels earned.

Kaydan Christian A terrific literary drama and character piece that shows how the process of creating art can be seen differently by those doing it and those looking at it from the outside.

Karthic S Okay, we travelled some 35 kms to catch a Malayalam movie that too running without subtitles, which starts at midnight (11:50 pm) at Mayajaal and reached our room back in the morning 3:30. We were mad to do this, but we did it. We weren't disappointed, it was really worth it.Premam, second movie from Alphonse Puthren who gave us a bilingual Neram, which really caught my eye and also introduced Nivin Pauly and Nazria to me. Premam is about Nivin's three stages of love. When he was in school, then during his final year of college and he was an adult. It was like Autograph, but this was even more fun.Alphonse Puthren has given his best in his second movie. And, Nivin as usual he was fantastic and it was really a treat to watch him on screen. I thought Oru Vadakkan Selfie is going to be the best of his movie this year, but this one was even better. First love was fun, where almost all the boys in her neighbourhood follows Mary when she leaves her tuition centre. And, she chooses someone else and Nivin ends up helping them in their love. This part was pictured in most beautiful locale. How green is Kerala, fantastic.Second love was the best in the movie. It happens during his final year in college when he fell in love with a Tamil speaking guest lecturer Malar. She looks so lovely and her Kuthu dance was terrific that was literally stunning. If I have seen the title credits correctly, I think she's the one who choreographed the Rockankuthu song. Looking forward to see her in more films. And, there was another lecturer who loves Malar teacher one-sided. He was fun who even ask Nivin himself to help him and he teaches Mava sorry Java. Nivin's rugged look in this part suits him well and maintains that "gethu". And, this love ends in a tragic way.The third and final part's love story comes with an unexpected twist. It may look bit too much, but you still got to love it. The director himself does a cameo in this part.Music was really fantastic. Aluva and Malare songs were too good, especially Malare with Malar teacher. And, Scene Contra was a different love failure song. The interval looked forced as if just because it was mandatory like a strategic timeout in IPL when the team where going good. And, cinematography was rich and the director himself is the editor as well so that part was handled well.All three ladies was beautiful, but we came out in love with Malar teacher. Nivin's two friends also come along with him throughout the movie and provide enough laughs. We got some 70% of the jokes, I wish they had released it in Tamil also like Neram or at least could have added subs, but never mind.Easily the best romantic movie of this year so far. After OKK, this movie puts a smile on your face from the start until it ends and I loved this even more than OKK.The movie's running length was big, but you never feel it. Premam was like a long ride on a rainy day in an empty road with Raja sir songs for company. You just wish the ride goes on and on.My Rating - 5.0/5.0. Not to be missed.

jisha-66982 I am no movie buff and I cannot get into any technical aspects of the movie, but to me, Premam is more than perfect and the spell it has spun has remained with me even after a good one month since I watched it to make me write a review.It was nothing but pure and sheer entertainment and pleasure to watch a honest movie made by Alphonse Putharen. The story, as many know by now, is not complicated; it's about adolescence, of innocent love/infatuation as many like to call it and the heartbreak of a failed proposal, the at-the-tether-end-of-adolescence phase where we do believe in love at first sight and giving a damn about the world, the more mature young man phase where love happens even after past failures.To get dramatic, Alphonse Putharen is an artist who has painted his canvas with all the right mixture of emotions, colors, palettes etc. I can see from his interviews that he is a very passionate filmmaker and his work shows in such a way that you are bowled over by each frame of the movie.Nivin Pauly is at his best in this movie. Believe me, the first movie that I got to watch of his is Neram and I simply can't compare how much he has grown from there to here, his personal best performance so far I believe. Sai Pallavi is like a fresh breath of air, perfect as Malar, you will fall in love with her for a whole lot of reasons, the voice, eyes, the pimples, etc.Shabareesh Varma, Krishna Shankar, Vinay Forrt, Anupama Parameswaran, Madonna Sebastian, Soubin Shahir, Siju Wilson, Sharafudheen, Ananth Nag, Renji Panicker, the peon and so on will leave an indelible impression on your mind.The songs need a special mention. If Alphonse Putharen is the quintessential filmmaker, Rajesh Murugesan is the versatile music composer. This movie has a magical feel to it because of its varied genres of music. The background score suits the mood of the movie to the T. Also, all the song lyrics are penned by Shabareesh Varma, it has made me run around looking for words unheard of before because I am a native Speaker only with no prior knowledge of tough, unpronounceable Malayalam words. The whole feel of the lyrics and composition takes you to another level. These songs are my morning walk partner now.To sum it all up, for me this is a whole new phase of rediscovering Malayalam movies, like the ones where something stirred in your heart when you watched Lalettan, Jayaram, Maamooka, and the likes emote.With this movie, Alphonse has announced to the world "Watch out world, here I come." Thank you Alphonse for making me proud of my roots!!

george-450-936509 If you have some sense in ur brain. kindly don't watch this movie and waste your time and mood. But if u are a frustrated college student. going after every girl you find around. This movie will be a tutorial for you.The movie is just about a few boys who fall after every girl they find, from a neighbor , lecturer and so on.. It was quiet boring.+ The film has a few classic comedy scenes, but not worthy to waste 3 hours to see that 15 minute comedy.The directors tried their level best to win over Santosh pandit. but could not... Pandit's movie had at least a story.
