What’s a day in a cop’s life like? Is it merely bashing up criminals with pent up anger — as plenty of films appear to suggest?
Malayalam director Abrid Shine’s cop tale also shows that a police officer can be trusted with your woes.
Biju Paulose (Nivin Pauly), a double postgraduate, quit his teaching job to become a sub-inspector. He loves his job. If Biju is not chasing criminals, he is resolving cases at his police station.
Be it the young woman who lodges a complaint against her former employer for not paying her dues or the father who wants his daughter back after his wife eloped with his friend, Biju Paulose ensures justice.
When it comes to dealing with criminals, Biju has a unique style. He picks up a coconut, wraps it in a towel and then thrashes them. It has earned him quite a reputation.
There is nothing larger-than-life in Biju’s role and that’s what makes this honest cop believable.
Shine, who bowled viewers over with his debut film, 1983, wins hearts with a clean family entertainer. Shine has co-written the story with Md Shafeeq. There is enough situational humour to bring in the chuckles. Look out for the scene where a human rights activist visits the station and confronts Biju.
There are a host of characters and each one has been well-fleshed out carrying a distinct identity. Several new faces show promise. Suresh Thampanoor — who wrote the lyrics, composed tunes and sung the song Muthe Ponne Pinangale — was carrying loads on his head for a living until his music skills were spotted by Shine. Thampanoor plays a drunkard arrested by Biju.
Suraj Venjaramoodu, a noted comedian, does a brilliant job as a wronged husband. His scene with his onscreen daughter leaves a lump in the throat. Rohini’s subtle performance is commendable. Anu Emmanuel as Benitta, Biju’s fiancee, appears in few scenes, yet leaves a mark with her freshness.
Although Pauly carries the film on his shoulders, every other actor is remarkable. This is Pauly’s first venture into production.
Shorn of cinematic frills, Action Hero Biju is a grounded cop tale that packs quite a punch.
