Then you will find your passport. And I can't do anything. My passport is fake. Not real. I go to jail. I am afraid manager. I know you can't believe but my life is not easy. Believing in refugee settlement with thousands of people. No ration. We had to buy everything. Food. Water. Everything. It was difficult to get a job. We still roam around. Tried to make some money. Money to feed our family. But it was never enough. Lucky to go to better countries. Play football and make some money. So I thought he was happy. My grandma, my sisters. Everything was going to change. I was a refugee. I had no passport. It was a fake passport. Expensive. I had to make more money. I will do one thing. I will get a number. I will think about him. He is an advocate for Rohingya and Sri Lankan issues. I will do something. Then I won't make any more stories. We got a big trap from the UN Central in Delhi. They don't have a job, travel or stay at home. There are so many problems. They don't have the right to do a job. So it is a situation where it will be difficult. Rohingya, in the next situation, because you don't have a passport, you are allowed to go to jail. What is the situation? We are in crime branch. We are here to bring the Nigerian sister. We have to make a person. He is an unwell child. Where is he? He is not here. He has a passport. He will be back in the morning. We can't do anything now. If we don't move further, we can go to SPOP. Okay? Mr. Samuel, come with us. Hello. Police. What is the problem? What is the problem? First, take it. First, take it. First, take it. Sir, what is the problem? I am coming. Sir, we are not here. It is only at 10. Walk. Peace be upon you. What were your thoughts there, Rick? What were your thoughts? I am surprised at some point that you didn't stop it. I enjoyed it. You enjoyed that? Yes, I did. What did you enjoy about it? It was a film about humanity and people. There were flaws in it for sure. You liked it because it is a film about humanity and people. I liked it because it was a good film about humanity and people. What are the good things about the film? The performances. I don't think obviously. The guy who played the Nigerian was the best. He hired footballers to be actors more than anything. Nisubin, I really enjoyed his performance. I think a lot of it was more nuanced because it was a lot of broken English of certain people trying to understand English. There was a lot of that, but I enjoyed it. I think the overall story was a nice story about people helping each other and overcoming differences. Just being there for other people. You didn't like any of it? No. Why? I didn't find anything to be particularly engaging or interesting. I found a majority of the content to be about as thought-provoking and attention-grabbing as if I was sitting in the DMV watching people interact at the DMV. I didn't see anything of any kind of consequence taking place. There wasn't anything that stood out in cinematography. There wasn't anything that stood out to me with performances. You're being kind in saying that the guy who played the Nigerian soccer player wasn't the best. He's definitely not the worst foreigner we've ever seen. That's for damn sure. No. He definitely can't cry, obviously. Even things that are supposed to be a big payoff. I could think of several, but one that kind of encapsulates the payoffs not working. She said at the beginning of the film, I can't remember the last time he called me mother. And he calls her mother at the end and she just acts as if it's just another day. At the end there? I don't think she did. Yeah, he said, mother, I'd like something to eat. And she just looked at the dad and they all walked into the house. Oh, I didn't. I think she actually was, because it was a big moment for her there at the end of one, him calling mother, but also coming to terms with the stepfather there. Well, coming to terms with the stepfather there obviously was a big deal for her. But when he called her mother, there was nothing in her performance or in the edit or anything cinematography-wise that it just kind of went right on by. I am utterly astonished that you like this movie. I'm actually kind of astonished that you just hated this movie. Yeah, I found it just tremendously boring. I thought it was definitely a slow film, but I enjoyed it because I enjoy Subin. I enjoyed his performance. I appreciated the difference in what they were doing with this story of telling somebody who's a foreigner and how everybody came in and how normal people would act from a different country and somebody from another country, especially in India obviously. But I mean, similar to probably how when you went to Papua New Guinea, people treated you obviously there because you were just so different obviously. And so there was those differences there and how they kind of all got together. It was symbolic of, I was thinking of that Vir Das stand up one time when he was talking about they were going up to this African-American, not African-American, African and you could call them Blacky and he was talking about how that's not racist because there's no malice in it as hard. I remember that one. So it was kind of like symbolism of that kind of thing in the film. It was no judgment about this. They were just excited that this person was there. And also obviously with India being, you know, the guest is God and all that kind of stuff. And so it was a lot. I think it was definitely a slow, I'm not going to say it was not a slow film. It was definitely a slow film, a slow burn. But I enjoyed the songs. I enjoyed Subin's performance because I thought it was different because I think it was probably challenging because of how much one he had to, I don't know how fluent he is in English. Like if he can talk normal or not normal, but like if he can speak fluently in English or if he kind of talks more similar to this character, but I'd never seen him do the style of character. There's definitely flaws in terms of obviously some of the Nigerian performance. He definitely wasn't the strongest for sure. You could definitely tell he couldn't cry. And so they were being kind to him and letting him cover his face and all that kind of stuff. And obviously the dubbing issues. But overall I thought it was a really nice story about humanity and people. And yeah, there's a way that you're shocked that I liked it. I'm kind of shocked that you, I mean I could tell that you didn't like it while watching it. But I'm shocked that you didn't like it because it's not one of the films that you normally, like when a film's starting and watching and I'm watching, I can normally tell like you're not going to like this at all. I know your style obviously. This is not one of those films. So I'm guessing it was just boring to you more than anything than as opposed to the overall style. But like I said, I enjoyed the songs and the performances and the overall film. I think it was definitely a thousand percent a small budget film. Like I can't tell what the budgets are in crores or whatever they are. So I don't, I have no reference point of what budget means to. But I didn't consider that a reason for it not being a good movie. I think it was very Malayalam in terms of a slow burn. A lot of the films have that style of, I mean not the ones we watched this year, from last year because all those had comedy and all that kind of stuff. So very different films. Like Jai Jai Jai, The Associates. What was the other one we just watched? Oh, the Case one and then the Battle of Braz. So those are all obviously very, very different style of films. I think, and I haven't seen his review of this if they've watched it all, but I know Jimmy and Buddy Meister have coined a phrase called Malayalam Chill or something like that. About Malayalam films that's just really slow kind of goes at its own pace and that's what I would consider this. Nothing good about it? Nothing? No? Wow, Rick. Yeah, no, it's my, if I'm, this is just, I was, I just found it to be tremendously boring with average performances and some extremely subpar performances with no particular sense of, I mean they took care of him while he was ailing. I didn't see anything that was anywhere approximating a profound sense of acceptance or kindness. I don't know how finding an illegal passport gave him the scot-free. I thought that's why he was in legal trouble was not just for not having one, but the fact that it was. No, nobody knew he didn't have a, nobody knew that he didn't, that he had a fake passport was that he didn't have a passport so they thought he was a refugee. That's why he was in trouble because he didn't have the, that's why he was in trouble. I just, I didn't see anybody have much growth transformation. They were nice to the guy. I don't know if it's particularly growth. I think it's, like I said, I think it's a film just about humanity in terms of people helping other people. I don't think it's like they were racist. Now they're not. I don't think it's that kind of film. Yeah, but in helping him, that's what I mean. It was like watching somebody at the DMV help someone fill out a form. I don't, I didn't see anything in it that was put. There is no payoff at the end in terms of, I promise you, when you reach a film that is supposed to be a slow thing and it's relational and people being kind and humanity, there should be some semblance of an emotional evocation that comes in the finale when they reach the place where he's leaving and they're exchanging shirts. They even did a cut away for reaction because there is potential emotion that's going to be transpiring there. There was zero emotional care. It's like, okay, he's going back to Africa for his family. That's wonderful. I didn't believe there was anything of consequence taking place. Well, I got that emotion at the end though. I didn't get emotional. I don't do that, but I got that emotion. It was the feels forward at the end. Obviously the nice soccer gesture there at the end, obviously of exchanging shirts and stuff like that. I definitely felt the relationship between Subin's mom and the Nigerian, her care for him obviously. She treats him like she does her kids and stuff like that. I think she kind of almost cared for him like she wanted to care for obviously Subin and stuff like that. I'm sorry you didn't connect to it. Me too. That's always a bummer. Me too. I never liked that kind of stuff obviously. But you guys can let us know what you thought about the film. If you enjoyed it, if you didn't like it and stuff of that nature. Let us know what the next Malayalam film, Subin or otherwise, that we should watch is, if you'd like to see the full uncut version of our reaction, the Patreon, I'll put the link in the description below in the pinned comment and I need to do that. I need that on to the next episode. Oh yeah, you do. No wait, that's the, that'll work. That'll work.
