The film was still a fun one that will make you laugh and have you leaving the theater feeling like you just stole something valuable and got away with it.

what a terribly boring film. I'm sorry but this is absolutely not deserving of best picture and will be forgotten quickly. Entertaining and engaging cinema? No. Nothing performances with flat faces and mistaking silence for subtlety.

Jayasurya has delivered a decent performance and so did some of the supporting artists.The movie lacked a better script and could have made the climax a bit more interesting.The first half was well presented but the second half was full of yawns. If you think that the movie talks about the blind adventures of the hero, you're wrong.We can see an array of different lives which is unfortunately desperate and boring.Anyway it is worth a watch without keeping too much expectations. The one and only plus point of the film is that, it makes us aware about Blind Cricketing in India. WATCH WHEN YOU HAVE EXCESS TIME AND THERE IS NOTHING ELSE TO DO !!

Okay, so now I know there exists a blind cricket team in India and elsewhere. Period.Other than this general knowledge, the whole film looked like a gimmicky documentary under the disguise of generic cinema. Happy Journey basically talks about a man's ambition to play cricket for his country. An accident makes him blind and his ambition strengthens, as a result. All this is good fieldwork for a potential script. But what follows is a ridiculous plot which bludgeons the whole film.A team is formed from around the nation by a so-called coach (Lal) who is also a delivery boy for a fast food chain (impersonator; NFC a la KFC). There is high degree of melodrama & politics as these points are shown. And if you have watched the hit Hindi film Chak De! India, then you know how the rest of the film advances to an even ludicrous climax.Aparna Gopinath is hideous as the climax is irrelevant. I wonder how much she was paid for the blink-and-you-miss role. A hundred? Or a thousand? Towards the end, things are shown which either do not need mention or are totally unnecessary. Talk about creating character depth. Jayasurya might have worked hard but even he shows poor stances. Supporting cast overact. The screenplay is very poor and so is the direction. Cinematography is fine, but that doesn't matter. And, the way the story is unfolded with no coherence between shots is another reason to skip this hackneyed piece of ambitious tomfoolery.BOTTOM LINE: I might have chuckled a few times and that was strictly in the first 30 minutes or so. Not recommended! Do not let the previews, interviews & reviews fool you.
