### 1. SPA — ManoramaMAX (May 28)

**Director:** Abrid Shine | **Cast:** Shruthy Menon, Vineeth Thattil, Radhika Radhakrishnan, Sidharth Bharathan

If you like films that make you think while making you laugh, SPA might be the best pick of the week. Set inside La Paradise, an urban massage therapy centre in the city, the film follows Mathan — a man who simply cannot tell the difference between real love and the romanticised version he has built in his head. Director Abrid Shine (known for his sharp, slice-of-life storytelling) uses the unusual backdrop of a wellness centre to hold up a mirror to modern urban relationships and human behaviour. It’s funny, it’s a little uncomfortable, and it’s probably more relatable than you’d expect. Shruthy Menon leads a confident ensemble cast that brings warmth to the otherwise satirical narrative.

### 2. Faces — SunNXT (May 29)

**Director:** Neelesh EK | **Cast:** Kalesh Ramanand, Hannah Reji, Arjun Gopal, Sarayu Mohan

This one’s for thriller lovers who prefer slow burns over jump scares. Faces is told entirely through Nithya’s eyes — a woman recovering from a devastating fire accident at home. As she heals, something unsettling begins: she starts seeing the face of her missing boyfriend Michael on every man around her. What starts as a trauma response slowly unravels into something far deeper and darker. The film forces Nithya — and the viewer — to confront the truth about what really happened to Michael, while questioning the reliability of memory and grief. [Psychological thrillers](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Psychological_thriller) like this work best when the protagonist’s internal world becomes the real mystery, and Faces seems to understand that well.

### 3. Cousins and Kalyanams — JioHotstar (May 29)

**Director:** Vishnu Chandran | **Cast:** Priya Prakash Varrier, Roshan Abdul Rahoof, Nainita Maria, Manaswini K Ram

This one is the lightest watch of the week — a warm, easygoing story about a group of cousins growing up together in Kerala. The film traces their journey from carefree childhood all the way to adulthood, navigating everything life throws at them along the way — relationships, responsibilities, weddings, and the chaos that comes with a big joint family. Priya Prakash Varrier brings her natural charm to the lead role, and if you’re in the mood for something that doesn’t demand too much but still leaves you smiling, this is your film. Great for a lazy Sunday evening with the family.

### 4. Sukhamano Sukhamann — Prime Video (May 29)

**Director:** Arunlal Ramachandran | **Cast:** Mathew Thomas, Devika Sanjay, Jagadish, Spadikam George

Easily the most emotionally layered film of the four this week. Sukhamano Sukhamann centres on Theo, an ambulance driver who is looked down upon by his entire town. Haunted by the loss he experienced in childhood, Theo begins seeing visions of the deceased people he transports — not as horror, but as emotional substitutes for the human connection he was never given. It’s a fantasy comedy drama on paper, but at its heart, it’s a deeply human story about loneliness, stigma, and the strange ways grief reshapes a person. Mathew Thomas, who has consistently impressed in recent Malayalam films, carries the film with quiet, understated power.
