Attention Please is highly political, dark and a situational thriller. There is a shift from conversational drama and humour to this gripping thriller and the stellar performance from vishnu govindan helps the movie stay consistent. He showed the frustrstation, desperation and the transition with ease. I am not sure if the further writing can progress without spoilers, so better to avoid the rest of the para if you haven't seen it yet.. The movie addresses casteism and the importance and the reason why such stories are being told and retold repeatedly. The screen play progresses through the narration of few scripts written by vishnu's character and the sound design for the same is too good and it elevates the experience. These stories has something in common and gives us an idea about the character and what he had gone through or what made him and his stories. The movie as a whole also utilizes this approach and open ended climax add more beauty as it allows us to rethink and revisits through the incidents and make us see through the stories in a different and deeper way. Its dark, thought provoking and ambiguous.
I have seen only work from.jithin issac before and that's the praa.thu.mu segment from freedom fight. Both his movies blends politics naturally and he was successful in conveying his politics without affecting the drama. Looking forward to his future works. This movie utilities its minimal set up to the fullest. It has only single location and 5-6 actors and every single one was convincing and performed well especially Anand and Sreejith. The acceptance they are getting. The movie is also a letter to the screen writers.it discusses their role, their problems, the restrictions they are facing and the acceptance they get for their work and the movie as a whole has this connection as well. Long live the screen writers.
