Philips and the Monkey Pen (2013). 2h 20m

“Another superb Malayalam movie and as usual is truly apart from the regular Indian Cinema. Fantabulous direction of Shanil Muhammed, Rojin Thomas u0026amp; Rojin Philip which is absolutely flawless and distinctive creativity with a combination of great cinematography by Neil Du0026#39;Cunha and beautiful locales from our very own Godu0026#39;s own Countryu0026#39;s Cochin. All the kids have acted extremely well especially Sanoop Santhosh who acted as Ryan Philip. Ryan and the other kids are the best child actors in the country. There is no Indian movie or TV shows in 2013 which can match these kids acting. The other characters like Ryanu0026#39;s parents, Grandpa, the school teacher, Principal, God etc. are all placed well and have been enacted well too. Kudos to Shanil Muhammed and Rojin Thomas for having written such a wonderful story on child innocence and actual life and how to counter the same with a smile is not only appealing to kids and adults alike but also with such good morales for the growing kids to learn and use in their day to day life like respecting and loving the Teachers and simple deeds which can have immense impact. u003cbr/u003eu003cbr/u003eThe music by Rahul Subrahmaniam is also excellent with some good songs apt for the movie which can compel the audience into tears. u003cbr/u003eu003cbr/u003ePrejish Prakash edited the movie very well keeping it to the point with each moment of the movie absolutely captivating.”
