Amen (2013) - 165 min

Amen is a Malayalam-language film directed by Lijo Jose Pellissery.
Starring Fahadh Faasil, Indrajith Sukumaran, Natasha Sahgal & Swathi Reddy.
Solomon is a nervous guy while playing clarinet in front of others and Sosanna, his lover is the only person actually motivates him. His dream is to achieve a place in St. George's church band and with the arrival of Father Vattoly, Solomon's life starts to change.
This is a surprise pack from Lijo Jose Pellissery and Like a fairy tale story, it's a journey through the village Kumarankari. Lijo Pellissery makes sure that there is something new to encounter each time we look into the characters. The comic situations lie mostly in dialogues and he even tries to introduce comic characters like Vikraman and Muttu into the big screen. Both Fahadh and Indrajith delivers a stellar performance in the movie with a lot of support from the supporting characters. Swathi as Shoshanna shines every moment she appears. The outstanding cinematography from Abhinandan captures every single detail of Kumarankari. Overall, It's a fantasy version of the Romeo and Juliet story which took place in a village.
Verdict: Good
