Cocktail (2010)
brilliantly made...trend setter.
It's another ordinary day in the life of Ravi Abraham (Anoop Menon), successful architect and his wife Parvathy (Samvrutha), until their daughter is kidnapped and a stranger Venkatesh (Jayasurya) threatens to topple everything that they hold dear to. In the course of the next several hours, the couple is assigned a series of daunting tasks which would ruin their very existence.
Arun Kumar's directorial debut Cocktail is a malayalam movie which is a scene-by-scene adaptation of Butterfly on a Wheel; a Canadian thriller directed by Mike Barker in 2007. The makers of Cocktail have obviously been a bit too stirred by the Pierce Brosnan starer, and hence do not attempt to make too many diversions from the chill points that the original screenplay had.
Overall this movie is a spine chilling experience, the shots are well taken,good back ground score, nice editing, superb dialogs and excellent acting by each actors irrespective of the length of their roles.The best part is that this film is creating a revelation in the malayalam film history , hats off to this real trend setter.
