Vysakh’s ultra-generic ‘Turbo’ is basically Mammootty saying he needs to chill after ‘Bramayugam’

The film also stars Raj B Shetty, Anjana Jayaprakash. It is yet another mass movie that thinks a star’s swag is enough.

Towards the end of Turbo, the villain – played by Raj B Shetty – utters these words: “I hate these bloody old  cliches.” He needn’t have waited so long. The bloody old cliches are present from the very beginning. We are in the house of a young woman with a little boy. The doorbell rings, and she sees three men who say they have brought a gift for her husband. Heck, Mammootty’s granddaughter could tell you that this is a lie and these are bad guys, but director Vysakh and writer Midhun Manuel Thomas choose to pretend that this scenario is being presented for the very first time in cinema history. I won’t tell you what happens next, but then, I don’t have to because you will already know what happens next. Turbo is the kind of movie where the audience is always ten steps ahead.
