CAPTAIN MOVIE REVIEW

The film capitalises on the average Malayali's love for football. The kind of love that makes Sathyan tell his wife, 'I will divorce you if you come against my first lover football' on his first night after wedding. Jayasurya does justice both as the loving husband and as the passionate footballer. He also captures well his final days when he succumbs to depression due to his leg injury. (more)

Jayasurya Not Acts, But Lives As VP Sathyan In This Moving Biopic!

Captain ably sheds proper light on the 'Unsung Hero' of Kerala without taking the usual commercialized approaches of biopics. With some fine performances from the lead actors and a sincere narration, Captain is a film that you would root for, despite the minor shortcomings.(more)

Jayasurya's invested performance is the saving grace of this plodding sports biopic

Captain's achievement is that it made me hope for a better-made film on Sathyan.(more)
