MOVIE REVIEW
The
movie, with the media industry as its backdrop, tells the unending race between
the television channels, for gaining better rating points and creating their
exclusive scoop. Mohanlal
appears as a high profile cameraman, Venu, who is regular on the panels of
international giants like Reuters. He is currently back to his homeland,
after some skirmishes with his dear ones, which made him leave the state almost
a five years ago. Then it was his fiancee Renuka (Amala Paul), a budding
journalist, who embittered Venu for a costly sting story. That story also
languishes the political aspirations of Bharathan Pillai (Sai Kumar) and
industrialist Rajan Kartha (Siddique). And when Venu come back to Kochi,
they are also back with a vengeance. At Kochi, Venu teams up again with Renuka,
whom he hates the most. And as they are into another sting activity to expose a
real time assassination of a politician, they unknowingly lands up into a heap
of troubles, which rip-off their credibility as journalist and how they manage
to clear the confusion, forms the rest of a story.
There are
many situations that may appear unrealistic. There are things that seem to be
handled in a rather silly manner, like for example Venu’s behaviour with Renu
after they part and later come face to face. We begin to doubt if it was really
a break-up or just a pretension. He seems to behave rather funny and childish.
Well, that doesn’t affect the flow of the whole thing.
The film,
on the whole, is not bad. It has nothing new or extraordinary to offer, but the
plot that is at hand has been deftly executed. Most of the twists are
predictable, but still we’d like seeing it. I just felt that if characters like
those played by Biju Menon, Shammi Thilakan, Vijayaraghavan etc were a bit more
worked on, the film could have been better.
'Run baby
Run' is definitely your movie and you may love to see it, more than once.
Forget the little glitches and watch the wonderful performance of Mohanlal.
Verdict- Predictable but watchable thriller, typical
Joshiy film
Rating = 3/5
