I watched "Theeppori Benny," a Malayalam film with a political satire theme, focusing on a father and son with contrasting political views. The movie starts promisingly by exploring generational political differences, but it soon falls into predictability with an unsatisfying climax. Although it attempts to highlight the ideological gap between different generations, its satire predominantly targets Left parties, a common aspect in Malayalam cinema. Despite some witty dialogues that provided humor, the film overall failed to make a lasting impact. It lacked distinctive or memorable elements to warrant a rewatch. In essence, while "Theeppori Benny" presented an engaging concept and had entertaining moments, it ultimately fell short as a notable entry in the political satire genre.
