Plot
The
core
plot
of
Madhura
Raja
is
set
in
a
different
terrain
and
this
time
Raja
has
a
different
mission
to
be
accomplished.
When
Raja's
dear
ones
faces
an
issue
with
liquor
baron
in
Paamban
Thuruthu,
Raja
comes
to
the
island
to
deal
it
in
his
own
style.
Script
&
Direction
To
make
an
entertainer,
what
is
required
is
a
decent
script
that
has
the
backing
of
a
good
storyline.
Madhura
Raja
scores
in
that
part
as
it
has
a
decent
storyline
even
though
it
isn't
anything
new
or
novel.
There
are
some
cliched
elements
as
well
in
the
script.
However,
the
platform
for
the
return
of
Raja
has
been
laid
in
a
firm
way
and
Uday
Krishna,
the
writer
of
the
film
has
done
his
job
by
adding
the
necessary
elements
to
make
the
journey
entertaining.
The
comedy
numbers
and
the
mass
sequences
have
worked
out
extremely
well.
This
time,
the
emotional
angle
too
gets
more
importance.
Vysakh,
the
captain
of
the
ship,
deserves
a
huge
round
of
applause.
He
is
one
among
those
film-makers
who
rightly
knows
to
elevate
even
the
ordinary
scenes.
The
build
up
that
he
gives
to
some
of
the
sequences
are
immaculate.
The
packaging
and
pacing
are
completely
under
control
and
his
brilliant
command
over
the
various
technical
aspects
of
film-making
helps
him
a
lot.
Even
the
placement
of
the
songs
are
so
well
that
they
don't
look
out
of
context.
Both
the
halves
are
equally
well-paced
even
though
there
are
some
sluggish
moments
in
the
initial
parts
of
the
second
half.
He
places
those
mass
moments
at
the
right
spots,
which
only
a
film-maker
who
knows
the
pulse
of
the
audiences
could
do.
Performances
Mammootty's
ability
to
bring
back
the
characters
from
the
past
is
unmatchable.
He
portrays
Raja
in
a
scintillating
way,
bringing
back
the
peculiar
mannerisms
of
the
character
with
utmost
precision.
His
energy
and
screen
presence
are
simply
amazing.
It
is
pure
delight
to
see
him
in
such
massy
roles.
Nothing
much
has
to
be
said
about
his
performance
in
the
emotional
sequences
as
he
scores
heavily
like
ever.
Jagapathi
Babu,
who
plays
the
main
villain,
puts
up
a
convincing
performance.
Jai
plays
a
crucial
role
and
he
does
his
part
pretty
well.
Anusree,
Mahima
Nambiar,
Anna
Reshma
Rajan
and
Poorna
play
pivotal
roles.
Salim
Kumar
scores
in
many
of
the
sequences.
Siddique
has
also
played
an
important
role.
Nedumudi
Venu,
Vijayaraghavan,
Aju
Varghese,
Ramesh
Pisharody,
Narein,
Kalabhavan
Shajohn,
RK
Suresh,
Balachandran
Chullikkad,
Noby
etc.,
are
also
a
part
of
the
star
cast.
Other
Aspects
The
fight
sequences
are
splendid
and
convincing.
Especially,
the
climax
fight
sequences
designed
by
Peter
Hein
are
the
major
highlights
of
the
film.
It
does
offer
an
edge
of
the
seat
experiences
to
the
audiences.
Gopi
Sunder
has
done
a
fabulous
work
with
the
BGM
by
placing
it
in
the
appropriate
portions.
The
songs
are
also
good,
especially
Moha
Munthiri
Chaaru
is
sure
to
become
a
chartbuster.
Editing
needs
to
be
appreciated
as
the
film
doesn't
have
any
lethargic
portions.
Verdict
Madhura
Raja
is
a
complete
entertainment
package
and
it
delivers
what
it
had
assured.
Definitely,
a
film
that
gives
'Triple
Strong
Entertainment'.
