Polytechnic,
with
Kunchacko
Boban
and
Bhavana
in
the
lead
is
a
watchable
entertainer
for
family
audience
even
though
we
have
come
across
the
same
storyline
many
a
times.
Story
The
story
of
Polytechnic
revolves
around
Poly
(Kunchacko
Boban),
who
is
an
active
communist,
and
involves
in
almost
every
functions
and
social
activities
happening
in
his
village.
Pauly
is
in
deep
love
with
his
childhood
friend
Aswathy
(Bhavana),
a
police
officer.
Sukumaran
Nair
(Vijayaraghavan)
,
who
is
the
president
of
Panchayat
and
Aswathy's
father
doesn't
like
their
love
from
the
early
times
itself
and
he
is
the
main
oppose
for
Poly
in
the
village.
Pauly's
life
takes
a
turn
when
his
father
at
Indian
Army
dies
in
a
terrorist
attack.
Pauly's
family
gets
an
amount
as
compensation
and
with
this
Pauly
is
forced
by
his
family
to
start
a
business
on
his
own.
Pauly
decides
to
take
up
the
closed
Dakshayani
Biscuits
factory,
and
run
it
as
an
agricultural
factory.
Rest
of
the
movie
discusses
about
the
struggles
Pauly
does
to
run
the
factory
and
win
his
love,
Aswathy
fighting
against
Sukumaran
Nair.
Performances
Kunchacko
Boban
is
the
pick
among
actors.
Though
the
role
of
Pauly
didn't
leave
him
a
scope
to
perform
something
different,
he
has
done
a
pretty
good
job
to
portray
the
role
of
a
common
man
and
his
struggles
in
life.
Bhavana
as
Aswathy
is
charming
and
lovable.
Vijayaraghavan
as
Sukumaran
Nair
is
good
with
his
character.
Aju
Varghese
as
Backer,
playing
the
close
friend
of
Poly,
entertains
us
with
humour
elements.
Rest
of
the
actors
including
Niyas
Backer,
Suraj
Venjaramood,
Ambika,
Kochupreman,
Devi
Chandana,
Hareesh
Peradi,
Thesni
Khan
have
done
their
characters
well.
Technical
Aspects
Cinematography
by
Pramod
has
its
charm
with
the
rich
frames
of
the
village.
Music
by
Gopi
Sunder
leaves
no
impact
on
the
audience,
be
it
the
songs
or
the
BGM.
Polytechnic
is
the
second
script
on
screen
by
Nishad
Koya.
The
script
is
not
devoid
of
flaws.
The
characters
of
the
movie
resembles
many
of
the
other
characters
we
have
already
come
across
in
movies.
The
script
too
has
many
cliche
moments
and
lags
at
parts.
But
where
the
scriptwriter
has
won
is
the
simplicity
it
carries
through.
There
is
no
twists
and
turns,
or
punch
dialogues.
It
just
moves
in
a
simple
manner
which
can
easily
attract
family
audience.
Humour
elements
in
the
script
has
worked
out
well.
Director,
attempting
a
fun
filled
entertainer
for
the
first
time
in
his
career
has
been
quite
successful
with
the
attempt.
Verdict
On
the
whole,
Polytechnic
is
a
watchable
entertainer.
Watch
it
with
less
seriousness
and
expectations.
