MOVIE BOX_LOHAM

LOHAM..... MASS OR CLASS ?????

Well the movie is a key opener with all intentions to showcase the inner world of the gold smuggling to the audience,but the cheesy things took place by the story-line which went too simple and highly predictable one except for the interval punch. Loham fails to be the Onam Winner,it neither gives anything special about the new plot nor explores the commercial flavors which we expect in a Ranjith movie that has the typical mass appeal.

As I siad,the gold smuggling oriented flick was quite a news in  a few months back and it is still believed we hear stories of some elements even today.When one deals with one such operation where a group of people are conducting the secret operation to smuggle gold with the help of some people in the authorities for many political and non-political purposes.But some other gang gets into the business which causes total destruction to the whole plan.How it causes problems and what closing factor takes place under the gold chase is what Ranjith's Loham talks about.

The sort of Mohanlal in his simplistic act keeps things moving in the first halfbut the second half of movie turned predictable & some portions dull..With all respect and love towards the living legend,I feel like saying that this movie doesn't give that much space to the Complete Actor to explore his mass avatar as he has given many movies with all goosebumps in the typical mass avatars..Even after the epic mustache twirling look also,the sort of fun one can expect in such kind of movie doesn't hit the bull's eye.
Loham in its tagline ,the Yellow Metal is by no means a rank disappointment but it wasn't taken to the expectation level with the colossal and it might prove its stand in the box office ringers .Loham is not among the best works of Ranjith,it will be a comfortable one time watch for those who say 'Watching Mohanlal is enough for me'
