Grandmaster (Malayalam; 2012)
At one look, everything looks disjointed. Random occurrences happening at casual intervals with seemingly no single loose association. Only when we find a singular thread that holds each of it together, can we make sense of it.
This happens more often than we think it does. These casual links may give closure to the apparently unexplainable things around us. That too carries with it an oversimplification. The urge to provide a simple explanation to everything can be labelled 'conspiracy theory'.
To navigate life, to steer through the choppy waters, it sometimes helps to be overanalytical. Like a chess grandmaster, it is useful to look at the trend, look for the pattern and anticipate far in advance what the next assault by the opponent be. Let us be checkmated right under our noses.
This Malayalam film had its story based on Agatha Christie's 'ABC Murders'. Keeping to the demands of the local flavour, the tale has been geared towards family bonds, husband-wife relationships and divorce (and subsequent union, of course).
Chandrashekar, a disillusioned senior police officer, a pencil pusher, disenchanted with police work is intrigued with a random letter that came to the department. The writer signed Z, challenged him to prevent a murder in a town that starts with the letter 'A' -Adithyapuram. Like that the killings on till the mystery finally unfolds.
An interesting watch if you do not mind seeing an oversized 50-year-old man (Mohanlal)swerving around to give that killer kicks to the baddies.
