Mammooty is back as action hero in Phantom Pailey.No two ways about it, debutant Biju Varkey has come out with a decent entertainer. The camera work of the other debutant Biju Viswanathan is eye catching especially the way he has captured the lush green Munnar valley.

Phantom Pailey - Mammotty, Innocent
The story is set in a hill town where landslips and earthquakes are quiet common. The villagers are used to these natural calamities and following their complaint, to prevent such frequent earthquakes Government puts a court order that quarry work should be stopped immediately. The contractor who mints money out of the quarry, Annachi (Manivannan) and his people are at loggerheads with the local people who are led by Gandhi Pillai (Nedumudi Venu) and the Church priest (Innocent). Josekutty (Nishant Sagar) is a budding artiste and he is in love with Pillai’s niece Hema. When Jose goes to Hyderabad for a competition, his elder brother Pailey (Mammootty) comes to the town from Mumbai to get him married to Hema. Pailey, is a stunt or a dupe for Bollywood actors and due to his daredevil fights, he is known as Phantom (!). In no time he wins over the villagers and cross swords with the baddies! Soon Annachi brings a corrupt Police officer Sebastin (Manoj.K.Jayan), who is a sadist and a lawbreaker who is a constant nuisance for the villagers and Pailey is his main target. With the help of Annachi, Sebastin murders Josekutty and then it is pay back time for Phantom Pailey.

Mammootty is a sort of Arnold Schwarzenegger- One Man Army, who cleans up a village. Surprisingly he has done a decent job and even his comedy scenes are enjoyable. Innocent as the priest, Cochin Haneefa, Bindu Panickkar and Lalu Alex are great in comedy scenes.The heroine, Malavika has very little to do with hardly three scenes. Manoj K.Jayan as the clean-shaven villain police officer is a revelation. Songs tuned by Deva are a big let down. On the whole, till interval the film is fast paced but the second half is a bit dragging and has a contrived climax, which lessens the tempo.

                             RAKSHASA RAJAVU (2001)                         Top

Directed by Vinayan
Produced by Sargam Kabeer
Music by Mohan Sithara
Lyrics by S Rameshan Nair, Vinayan
Songs sung by Yesudas, MG Sreekumar, Chithra, Sriram, Smitha, Ashwathi Vijayan, Aneesha
Starring: Mammotty, Dileep, Harisree Ashokan, Indrans, Rajan P. Dev, Kalabhavan Mani, Sai Kumar, Janardanan, Cochin Hanifa, Capt. Raju, Saddique, Spadikam George, Machan Vargeese, Meena, Kavya Madhavan, Manya, Sukumari

Rakshasa Rajavu-it is yet another Vinayan magic. Vinayan has proved his in born talent to read the minds of the audience once again.

The central character an IPS officer played by Mammootty is a two-in -one person who is noble like Raman in his official capacity and strict and harsh like a Rakshasa to the opponents. Ramanathan is presented as a police officer, who accepts bribe to save culprits and the bribe money is for the funds of the orphanage chain that he owns.


Rakshasa Rajavu

Mammootty, as usual, has performed his role excellently, giving cent percent justice to his character, proving there's nobody else to do police roles this much effectively. Mammootty surely had managed to deliver the pulse raising dialogues with punch, which is his trademark. In the meantime he looked uncomfortable in certain scenes-especially in action scenes and some reacting scenes and this uneasiness is so striking at certain moments of the film.


Dileep plays Mammootty's close associate. Vinayan missed the popularity that might've got for this picture by not using the skills of Dileep effectively. Is it done purposely for increasing the image of Mammooty?

As constable Pathrose Harishree Ashokan scores loads of applause. Kalabhavan Mani hams on throughout the movie and is at times nerve wrecking. Rajan P Dev's character has nothing new for him as he has been doing such roles right from the beginning of his career.

Also, there was not much for any one of the three heroines - Meena, Manya or Kavya to do. Kavya plays opposite Dileep.

The songs composed by Mohan Sithara have already become hit among the audience.

The theme of the film is good, but only up to a certain point. After that, Rakshasa Rajavu turns out to be just another masala movie. Of course, there is neither a meaning nor a logic in the story. But Vinayan could erase all those drawbacks with his unique style. More than Mammootty's star value, it's Vinayan's dynamic style of presentation of the story that helped this 'story-less' movie a popular one.
