My Big Father directed by Mahesh P Sreenivasan is all about a father(Pakru) and his son (Jayaram). The director has tried his best to entertain the audiance but his effort has ended in a movie that doesn't have a clear idea what is to be presented.
The film tries a bit too hard to keep us entertained from the start to the finish. The dramatic turn of events that comes midway around, is a pointer to the fact that they have surely run out of ideas. The rest of the film is like a loose hanging appendage that looks all set to drop off any moment.
Most of the jokes in My Big Father are about being small. So we have Pakru being tossed about, shoved into suitcases, pushed into cradles and pampered with feeding bottles. There are also any number of verbal insults being hurled on him, that could be taken as jokes or as sheer tasteless attempts at humor.The film may have intended as a comedy entertainer but actually it seems to be an insult package to the father (Pakru) who is a dwarf.
If it would bring laughter to you, seeing Pakru scampering after Kaniha insisting that he be fed along with her new born baby, then this is the film for you. If you are on the other hand looking for more serious themes as social isolation in here, you are totally in the wrong place watching the wrong film.
Jayaram has done a fair job as Alby , Pakru too has handed his role quite well and so does Kanika. The supporting characters done by Suraj, Innocent, Jagathy were all good. But where the film goes down is the script which lacks naturality and dialogues. Music by Alex Paul were fair.On a whole, the film is not a must watch. But if you doesnt have any other works and have watched all the other movies, you can watch this movie once.
Our Rating : 4.9/10
