Amen Movie Review - Experimental and unconventional!
Amen, directed by Lijo Jose Pellisserry and starring Indrajith, Swathi Reddy and Fahadh Fazil among others is an experimental film and one of the most unconventional cinema in recent times. The film, that runs to 2 hours and 45 minutes does test your patience here and there! The script of Amen could have been cut short by at least 20 minutes.
Lijo has very smartly worked on the script and made sure to introduce comic situations every now and then between serious situations. This helps a great deal as the audience would not feel overburdened by the seriousness of the film. The climax especially is extremely well executed. Though Amen has the potential to become a blockbuster, it cannot be predicted as to how the average movie goers will react to an experimental film as this!
