Sagar Alias Jacy Reloaded is a Malayalam action thriller released in 2009. The film is directed y Amal Neerad who made hits like Big B. Sagar Alias Jacky is a sequel to Mohanlal's superhit film 'Irupatham Noottandu' released in 1987.
The movie as the previous one revolves round the underworld don and good Samaritan Sagar alias Jacky. Mohanlal is slick and cool as in the earlier version and the direction is wonderful.The cinematography is the highlight of the movie(other than of course Mohanlal),the camera work by the director Amal Neerad himself is awesome.The editing is also perfect.The only thing missing is a story.
The film looks as a Bollywood film made in Malayalam. Amal himself is the camera man and the film is shot in Super 35 mm camera.
Resorts, boats, planes all were used which gave a plush luxury feel for the film. Amal tried to give this film a mafiaso look but only succeeded in some scenes with his Spanish guitar tunes. Any way he gave due respect for Mario Puzo and Godfather.
