Myths and Mysteries garnished with a drop of fantasy are the all time favorite themes for both film makers and the film goers. And when the director, who is often praised (rather accused) for his smell of taste in this genre and the writer who gets influenced by the holy scriptures right from naming the characters join hands once again, hopes are at the peak for their adorers and in the pit for their abhors. But unfortunately, the duo disappoints once again, trying to develop a fresh theme but remained half baked.
They say, without a striking clincher, the spectacular build up simply isn’t worth much. Shaji Kailas’ Drona talks a lot about what is to take place, and much to our chagrin, not a thing happens.
It has to be accepted that Drona is one of the best attempts by Shaji Kailas in recent times. This is unlikely to work in the film’s favor though, because the last few of his cinematic outings have been anything but comparable. But the director who had flashed those sparks of brilliance some years back, and who had since disappeared into the shadows is out again in Drona. The film accentuates that all is not lost and the man still has got it in him.
What is it then, that works against this film? It is a real slow starter for one, and it’s quite some time before things get gripping. Even then, the kicks that it delivers are not strong enough, and there is always a sense of something seriously lacking throughout. Soon it becomes pretty evident that what is missing is a passion that sometimes makes even the most mediocre of works appear outstanding.
When it comes to the account, there are some grave lapses in continuity that absolutely flusters the viewers. The flashbacks are in abundance and are arranged in a slapdash style, and with the present and past continually intertwining, the logical string that binds them all together eventually gets severed.
The Story : Drona movie is all about Pattazhi Madhavan Namboodiri (Mammootty) alias Drona. He looks like a Sanyasi wears saffron clothes, Rudrakshamala, jet black long hair and Vibhooti on his forehead.Watch online Movie Trailer free Drona Malayalam Mullywoow Film.India Film The film Directed by Shaji Kailas .
