Like Father, Like Son

About This Movie

So, 'Like Father, Like Son' is a bit of a mixed bag, honestly. It's a drama that dives into the complexities of friendship and betrayal against a backdrop of wealth and power. Mangalram, the protagonist, is faced with this moral dilemma when he witnesses his childhood buddy, Bhujangroa, committing murder. The pacing can feel a little uneven at times, but it does a decent job of capturing the tension between the two families as Bhujangroa's kin seeks revenge. The performances carry a weight that really drives home the themes of loyalty and revenge. There’s a rawness to the atmosphere that kind of lingers, especially in the way it portrays the emotional fallout of a single choice. It's one of those films that sticks with you for a while, for better or worse.
