KULIR 100'

My Review : KULIR 100'



In Tamil Cinema so far teen movies have dealt only with adolescent infatuations often presented in a voyeuristic manner but here comes a teen movie which is clean & deals with a different subject altogether .For this Anitha Udeep the creater of the movie deserves applause . She has a good eye for visual presentation as well not that bad at direction also . If only she had a good script to back up with she would have hit the bulls eye.

"Kulir 100'" what begins as a school campus story , turns into to one up-manship game between the hero & his seniors , friendship , romance ,murder & revenge thriller.....it ends up tiring the viewers . As a result the movie which raises our expectations in the first few reels lets us down half way through.

Sanjeev as the hero Surya is OK as far as acting goes .He dances well & looks smart (infact smarter than what his role of a student from low class background demands).Has Simbhu dubbed for him???

Riya is a cigarette smoking , punch dialog mouthing , Villan Bashing ,loud mouthed heroine .She looks matured than a 11th student though.

The actor who plays Babloo do succeeds in evoking a few laughs while the ones who play the villainous trio impress.

L.K.Vijay is the real hero of the movie .His cinematography is excellent & captured the natural splendour of Yarcaud in all its glory. Another worthy addition to Tamil Cinema.

B.Lenin must have chiseled the second half better since it seem to go on & on.


Bobo Sasi's songs rock to the core . Each of the songs are fresh & foot tapping with "Manasellam" topping the list. However his BGM is nothing new rather mundane.

It is a good try from Anitha Udeep but armed with a better script she would have done wonders. One can't help the feeling of being alienated from the happenings & settings in the movie.Also there is a shred of artificiality through out the movie.

On the whole the movie is interesting only in parts.

Bottomline : script plays the spoilsport .

2.5/5
