Classic Hit
vishnuv-5421127 August 2019
The film was a contribution to the standard of Classic filming. Thanks to the Actor's & Crews for a fabulous contribution. The story was a simple one with complex characters but easily decode them with a little bit concentration on the story. Each and every characters the director imagined was in the screen by meeting his expectations. Anyway the film is recomendable to Current Generation and Old Generation due to an attractive mass story ...

Excellent Entertainer.
ShijoDxb2 September 2019
The story is unique and well taken by joshiy. From the beginning till end the movie was continuously engaging and entertaining. The lead actors showed true justice to the characters.

Joshiy does it again - (6.5)
sujith789_reviews1 February 2020
  • Watched the movie in Amazon Prime
  • Joju and Chemban acted very well.
  • Story is simple and presented very good. Felt like climax and second half could be better.
  • Rahul Madhav was good as villain.
  • Overall a good entertainer.

Did meet expectations but, disappointed in some aspects at the same time
sreeharivenat9 June 2022
Porinju Mariam Jose is one of the finest Action-drama entertainers I've ever watched. The screen presence of Joju is just lit 👌🏻 But the thing is, that is the only plus point of the movie. The story arc doesn't have any unique traits and there seemed like too many unnecessary emotional scenes. The climax didn't seem bogus but wasn't satisfactory either. To be frank, I didn't feel that Joshy touch. Although I think it deserves 7 because Joju George is probably the finest actors of this generation.

An excellent movie by Joshi
stvbiju24 August 2019
An extraordinary film by Joshi and team. Especially the casting was perfectly done. Each and everyone in the movie contributed very well. Joju and Jose performed exceptionally well. We really enjoyed watching this movie. Hats off to the entire team.

An entertainer with old formulas.
Azanspy3 September 2019
Joshiy is a familiar name to Malayalees. He has marked his name in Mollywood forever with a bunch blockbuster action movies and flops too. His recent release Porinju Mariam Jose is an action entertainer as all his movies are. Joshiy made the movie with old style which bore todays audiences. But I think he has done a good job as he maintained the same boring style and gave us a decent entertainer worth watching a time. Chemban Vinod and Joju George has done a very good job as the two titular characters but Nyla Usha disappoints as someone else would have rocked as Mariam. The main problem of the movie was it lacked good villains. The villains acted badly and their characters had no depth. The combination scenes between Porinju and Jose could also have been better as they lacked intensity. There are a few comedies and nostalgia to old Malayalam movies. Overall, PMJ is a one time watchable movie and one should not expect anything new.

One-Line Review: Porinju Mariam Jose / Loud and Tasty Yet Ordinary Action-Crime Drama / 6 Stars
nairtejas30 April 2020
There is nothing extraordinary in how Porinju Mariam Jose (given Malayali Christian-origin names) is made and what it tries to convey but I can't deny that I did not enjoy director Joshiy's trademark high-octane action sequences, loud and pregnant embodiment of crime, the overall raw vibe that he manages to bring out in his actors who speak impeccable Thrissur slang. TN.

Senseless plot and direction by joshy
sunilpillaistg22 February 2020
Everything looked fine until interval. However, the plot was unnecessarily dragged thereafter. All departments like camera and acting of all characters were awesome. However, the story writer wasn't able to create a ploy that can make people feel value for their money and time. Poor direction, unnecessary violence, pathetically dragged plot, crappy climax

Good entertainer
MichaelMKR28 May 2020
Chemban vinod steals the show.

Nyla jose is beautiful and acted well.

Joju has good screen presence and is a good actor, need to reduce his weight:)

Very good action scenes and cinematography is awesome.

Disappointing climax, except climax everything else is good.

Nice movie with high potential but extreme disappointing climax
josebeam8 October 2019
A beautiful movie with a lot of potential ruined with too long extreme violence towards the end which would give a complete discomfort to average audience and a disappointing climax. First half is remarkable with excellent set up of 1960s and 1985s reminding the english Movie " back to the future. " and malayalam movie "Amen " .So many typical kerala charactors, dressing, market scenes etc.. deserves high praise with extra ordinary high tech camera .However most of the audience would likely start feeling discomfort due to the extreme violence after the interval and at the end all good guys lose their lives by bad guys . Joshey should have use little more sense to make this amazing movie concept to a better conclution rather than giving the average audience extreme disappointment.

Classic movie with some new gen tadka
akhilsb-6212727 March 2023
This is a good movie. In term of plot there is not much about. The movie keeps you in the seat. The acting by all the characters are very natural. The main characters chemban and joji steal the show, their chemistry is very good. The action and brutally in the movie is awesome and you can feel it happening rather than any slow mo, they stick to being real.

The chemistry between actress and actor is likable. She also did a very good justification to her character.

There are some humour element also, to make it more watchable.

The dialogue delivery is awesome.

The climax can be made into a happier node.

Old wine in a new bottle
arjun-tkalathil9 October 2019
Just wasted my money and time.Another predictable joshiey movie without offering anything new.The first half was good and coming to the second half it became predictable and a small twist in its end. Not recommended!!!

Joju,chemban and nyla form the crust of this movie
sidhu-m11 November 2019
A simple village tale with the supreme talent of lead actors turn it into a memorable watch, jose,porinju and maria will remain in the audience mind as they make us feel like they are one among them,joju is a late found gem in malayalam film industry,another feather to his cap

Not as good as Joshi's classics
PimpinAinttEasy5 October 2019
Joju George is a bit of a star now. Chemban was always a popular actor. Nyla Usha was unremarkable despite having a strong female role. The film is basically old wine in a new bottle. The same old lovable village goons fighting with the village bigwigs in the backdrop of church festivals. Parts of it were interesting. But it was mostly over the top and unremarkable. I did not enjoy it.
