Mamangam movie review and rating: This is what audience say about Mammootty's film

Director M Padmakumar's movie Mamangam, starring Mammootty, Unni Mukundan and Prachi Tehlan, has received positive reviews and ratings by the Malayalam, Telugu, Tamil and Hindi audience.

Mamangam is a period action film and Sajeev Pillai has written story, screenplay and dialogues for the movie. It has been produced by Venu Kunnappilly under the banner Kavya Film Company. The flick has received a U/A certificate from the censor board and its runtime is 2.37 hours.

Mamangam movie story: The film is about the Mamankam festival of the 18th century on the banks of the Bharathappuzha at Tirunavaya, in the Malabar region. It follows the story of Chaaverukal who plots to overthrow the Zamorin rulers.

Analysis: Mamankam has an interesting premise, which has never been explored in Indian cinema and M Padmakumar has created a beautiful screenplay. But the first half is very slow and has a dull narration. Mammootty has little presence in the first half. However, the second half is the key to the film and it is engaging and entertaining, say the audience.

Performances: Mammootty has delivered an electrifying performance and his different makeover, action and dialogue diction are the biggest highlights of Mamangam. Unni Mukundan, Prachi Tehlan and Achuthan have played important roles and they are assets of the film. Siddique, Tarun Arora, Mohan Sharma, Anu Sithara, Kaniha and other artistes have also done justice to their roles, says the audience.

Technical: Mamangam has brilliant production values, which are on par with international standards. M Jayachandran's stunning background score, Manoj Pillai's beautiful picturisation, amazing action choreography, dialogues, costumes, weapon designs and art direction make the movie a visual treat, added the viewers.

#Mamangam - First of its kind in Malayalam. The Makers made good efforts to deliver their best. Second half is made with more actions, with a good climax. But a "Wow" Factor is Missing. Watchable !! #Mammootty & #Unni done their roles good, the little boy and #Manikuttan was a surprise package . Appreciate the hardwork to make a historical movie like this. They have told the story in a simple way.

#Mamangam First Half: Boredom struck at many areas untill second intro of #Mammookka ✌️
Fight scenes in first half are below par Second Half on the way... #Mamangam Detailed Review: If you are here just to reply me based on my DP, then please scroll down for other exaggerated reviews. I've spent ₹150 from my pocket to watch the movie What #Mamangam Trailer offered us was a pakka commercial period movie, at least better than #KayamkulamKochunni. What I received is, a homogenous mixture of a Mega Serial and a typical award padam Main Positives of #Mamangam: * Performance of Achyuthan was fantastic ✌️ * Screen Presence of Mammookka (despite lesser screen space) * Siddique's presence except in the climax * Second Introduction of Mammookka as Kurup ✌️ * BGM Camera works stayed below par in many shots. Main ingredient for Indian serial-like moments. Moving shots and Eagle view shots were less. Most anticipated fight scenes, was captured at a very amateur manner, especially for a heavy budget movie like #Mamangam Storyline was poor and I can't think of a reason why the director used his to make a commercial movie. The entire movie lacked goosebump moments, especially what I actually wished to happen in the climax didn't even actually happened. Surely, I won't watch #Mamangam for a second time. Second week of December continues to disappoint #PazhassiRaja > #KayamkulamKochunni >> #Mamangam Rating - 2/5

#Mamangam Historical entertainer with top notch performance from #Megastar Script wise solid. DOP and BGM, Good 1st half On downside, poor execution, poor VFX shots and poor fight choreography. Over melodramatic at times,ends up as strictly average! 2.5/5 #Mamangamreview

First Day Reports @firstdayreports

#Mamangam: This is the movie from Mollywood which offers you the best theatrical experience. So far good & visually impressive. #Mammootty, the show stealer, He as that female character is stunning. Already created that excitement in 1st half Expecting for a stunning 2nd half.#Mamangam[3.25/5]: A classic, visually beautiful, emotional historic film. Truthful to the historic events, but lacked the goosebumps. Felt incomplete & lag at parts due to the lazy writing & screenplay. Another good attempt & a magnum opus from the team.
