Christopher
is
a
film
in
which
Mammootty,
who
is
considered
one
of
the
Malayalam
superstars,
plays
the
hero
in
the
role
of
a
policeman.
Not
only
Mammootty,
the
film
also
stars
Amala
Paul,
Sneha,
Vinay,
Sarath
Kumar
and
a
lot
more
known
actors.
Malayalam
fans
and
Tamil
fans
who
love
Malayalam
films
have
been
waiting
for
this
film
for
a
long
time.
Christopher
(Mammooty)
is
an
honest
police
officer
working
in
Ernakulam,
Kerala.
He
is
popularly
known
as
an
'Encounter
Specialist'.
But
among
the
police
officers,
he
gets
the
name
of
'angry
cop
who
takes
the
law
into
his
own
hands'.
Christopher
shoots
5
men
for
raping
a
woman.
Due
to
this,
the
case
is
being
investigated
against
him.
Amala
Paul
comes
as
the
investigating
officer.
Sitaram
Thirumurthy
(Vinay),
a
big
business
man,
is
killing
his
wife
for
working
against
him.
Mammootty's
adopted
daughter
Amina
(Aishwarya
Lekshmi)
is
involved
in
this
case,
and
Thirumurthy
kills
her
as
well.
Did
Christopher
managed
to
take
revenge
against
Thirumurthy?
Was
Ameena's
death
justified?
Climax
is
the
answer
to
such
questions.
Although
the
first
half
of
the
film
moves
at
a
fast
pace,
in
the
second
half
you
can
hear
the
yawning
sounds
of
the
moviegoers.
With
a
predictable
screenplay
and
three
quarters
of
the
story
with
no
twists,
the
fans
start
chanting
"when
will
the
climax
come?".
Mammootty,
who
is
known
for
his
good
acting,
didn't
even
try
to
act
in
it.
Mammootty
appears
in
all
the
scenes
as
if
he
had
sprinkled
water
on
the
face
of
a
person
who
woke
up
from
sleep.
Despite
the
loss
of
his
adopted
daughter,
he
did
not
show
any
emotion
on
his
face.
Mammootty
is
cheating
the
fans
by
trying
to
move
his
arms
and
legs
in
the
fight
scenes.
Aishwarya
Lekshmi
as
Ameena
-
Aishwarya,
who
is
a
different
woman
in
all
the
films,
comes
as
a
lawyer
who
fights
injustices
in
this
film.
Aishwarya
makes
us
feel
emotional
in
the
scene
where
she
is
on
the
verge
of
dying.
Sarathkumar
does
an
important
cameo
role.
He
comes
as
a
police
officer
named
Vetri
Vel.
Actress
Vasanthi,
who
appeared
in
the
role
of
'Agent
Teena'
in
the
film
Agent
Vikram,
surprised
the
fans
by
appearing
in
the
character
of
Vadivukarasi
in
Christopher.
She
could
have
been
given
a
little
more
work
in
the
film.
Vinay
as
Villain
-
Vinay,
who
made
his
debut
as
a
villain
in
Doctor,
tries
to
show
the
same
villainy
in
Christopher.
He
shows
his
cruel
face
in
the
scenes
where
he
silently
approaches
his
wife
and
threatens
her.
Actresses
who
have
done
the
job
perfectly
-
Mammootty's
ex-wife
and
Home
Minister
Sneha
looks
good
despite
her
age.
Amala
Paul
comes
across
as
an
honest
police
officer
and
a
sexually
victimized
woman.
Overall,
Christopher
stands
out
as
a
two-and-a-half-hour
decent
action
thriller
and
a
film
that
speaks
out
against
violence
against
women.
But
just
like
a
well-made
cake
is
spoiled
by
pouring
poor
cream
at
the
last
moment,
Christopher
movie
is
spoiled
by
a
poor
screenplay.
With
a
little
more
twists
and
suspense
sprinkled
in,
Christopher
would
have
been
talked
about
even
more.
