Film Review : 2018

-

 The Malayalam film 2018, based on the 2018 floods in Kerala, hit the screens in its Tamil version, today, on May 26th.

The story revolves around the tagline, 'everyone is a hero', when one of the worst floods in Kerala brought life to a standstill.


How ordinary citizens, especially the fishing community, rose to the occasion and helped evacuate people in distress, some even losing their lives , is what the film highlights.

There are a plethora of actors ( see list below) who strung together, bring alive wonderful tales of bravery, selflessness and kindness in the face of danger.

The film is an inspiration and a tribute to unsung heroes. The narrative is engaginf, events gripping and the screenplay fast- paced. There is emotion and humor, love and caring, family values and patriotism. 

A sure shot must watch.
