![]() Anoop Menon, Priyamani, Jagathy, and Narain support well, but this is a Mohanlal movie. Mohanlal plays his age and his physical form, and is completely at ease as he carries the movie. While "Grand Master" doesn't compare to lets say "Bhramaram" (which I think is Mohanlal's role of the decade), there is a sense of calm and ease with which the actor fits into the character of Chandrashekar. When Mohanlal finds a character that resonates with the actor that he is, he delivers sheer onscreen magic. B.Unnikrishnan's "Grand Master" does just that, and is a movie worthy of repeated viewing. Though reception of the movie was lilliputian compared to K.Madhu's "CBI diary kurippu", "Mukham" trumps the Mammootty flick by tactfully meshing the two quintessential parts of a whodunit - the crime, and the mind of the investigating officer. "Mukham" if I remember correctly was a flop, but nuances of the movie keep growing on you on repeated viewing. 3.5/5 - Good Watch! Mohanlal's early 90's whodunit "Mukham' directed by Mohan is one of my favorite movies, so is Mohan's "Pakshe".
