Malayalam Movie - The Don

The Don , another manly action movie by shaji kailas. Edited by Master editor DonMax and above all starring the one and only Dileep.

The Don is a movie which brings in front of us the life of a boy whose parents were killed by his uncle. The kid escaped from the killer and found shelter in a nearby tea-shop. The kid had a gun with him which he had collected from his uncle on his courageous escape. The boy started to work as a helper in the shop.
Once when the uncle come to his shop he kills his uncle and the police arrests him and puts him to 'kids jail'. He stays there for long years and comes out as our hero.

There lived a very wealthy , yet very heplful man named Baba. He used to help all the poor people of the place and was the seen lord of the poor. Once Dileep had a chance to protect Baba from few contract killers. This gives dileep a chance to get into the home of Baba and he begins to help Baba in his business affairs.

The film continues as some crooked persons in association with Baba's son( A boy which Baba brought up ) ,plans to kill Baba and by chance that crime falls on Dileep. Dileep was taken to jail. But with the help of some of his friends there, he plans to pay the real killers in hard returns. The film features all his counter-attacks.

The film is a real enterainer. Gopika is the heroine of dileep here. It has got superb visual effects and varied camera angles never seen before. Also fine editing by DonMax add to the visual pleasure of the viewers. Stunt seens are also pictured really well. The background chore keeps the audience thrilled.

The film shows three phases of dileep in between. It is shown as 'target locked' in huge caps.In my personal opinion this could have been avoided. That is something which is not expected in good quality films.

Shaji kailas is a director who really focusus on creating quality action movies which would please international audience. Together with editing from DonMax and healthy manly dialogues his films including 'Chintamani Kolakesu' have kept the malayali audience thrilled for long long hours.

Let us hope that one day the malayalam movies will be as good as the hollywood movies featuring Tom Cruise or Arnold shwas... or so.
