Mammootty starrer Turbo trailer:
The film Turbo, which stars Mammootty in the title character, tells the tale of Turbo Jose, a jeep driver from Idukki. This mama’s boy, who is well-known for acting impulsively and erratically, finds himself unintentionally in Chennai. But when Jose gets into a fight with the notorious kingpin Vetrivel Shanmugha Sundaram, things start to go south. Will Jose succeed in defeating them and putting an end to their problems?
Turbo is a mass action commercial film that primarily capitalises on Megastar Mammootty’s popularity. The film’s creators have been able to take use of the actor’s celebrity image from the outset, even going so far as to include a prominent “Megastar” sign in the background.
Apart from the presence of the legendary actor, the movie heavily depends on Raj B Shetty’s menacing and wicked Kannada portrayal. The actor does a fantastic job portraying a strong antagonist, which keeps the plot fascinating and captivating. The movie’s second half and climax are elevated to an exciting level of action by these gifted performers working together.

Other than them, actress Bindu Panicker truly stole the show by playing Jose’s mother, who is the only person the protagonist fears in the entirety of the film. The bond between the two actors as mother and son was the most outstanding emotional connection depicted in the movie. Additionally, Anjana Jayaprakash, Shabareesh Varma, and Sunil, among other actors, also delivered noteworthy performances, establishing both emotional connections and comedic moments.
Coming to the technical brilliance of the film, the movie’s backbone was the blaring and energetic background scores composed by Christo Xavier. Be it the Turbo Jose theme or Burnout The Engine, both tracks stood out making it a thrilling experience for the viewers. The craftsmanship executed by Xavier should be praised equally to his contemporaries in Malayalam cinema like Sushin Shyam and Rex Vijayan.
The direction by Vysakh in his third collaboration with Mammootty truly made it clear why he is well-known for executing commercial movies. Even though the movie is packed with action movie cliches, it also makes an effort to play around with meta narration, occasionally poking fun at its own cliches.
The cinematography deserves special praise for its creative shots and subtle lighting that enhances the scenes. The film maintains a similar aesthetic to Vysakh’s recent works, which are executed effectively in this instance.
Furthermore, the biggest boon for Turbo is the stunts that were included in the entire movie. Especially in the second half of the Mammootty starrer, the actions were solid and gave a sort of euphoric high with the gravity-defying punches by the Megastar.
