MUTHIRAI

My Review: Muthirai




At present there seems to be a severe shortage of scripts in Tamil cinema & hence almost all movies that have released this year have met with miserable failure barring a very few. It is a great mystery indeed that no talented writers are there at the moment . “Muthirai” is yet another disappointing fare which is technically very good but content wise very stale & yawn inducing.

Nitin Satya is the only saving grace of the movie who tend to cheer up the sagging morale of the viewers here & there . All the witty one-liners in the movie are reserved for him & he expresses them with wonderful timing .

“Daniel” Balaji though the hero of the movie don’t have much scope for acting .He is stone faced more so in the song sequences .

Laxmi Roy has some scope to showcase her acting talents while Manjari Fadhnis has no scope .

Movie has a slew of television actors as supporting cast along with talented Kishore who all have done a decent job in some very routine roles.

Music by Yuvan Sankar Raja is not that inspiring to stay in the seat during the songs.

Saleem’s cinematography is excellent .Infact script like this does not warrant such hardwork from him but he excels.

Anthony’s editing confuses the viewers with scenes suddenly springing up from no where.

Story , screenplay & “creative direction” (!) is by Anees Tanveer . She has not strained much .She has made a kichadi form many old movies & come up with this one.

Srinath is the director of the movie.

On the whole don’t waste your money .

Nowadays venturing to a tamil movie has become very dangerous since not only money but our health may also get robbed by doing so.

Bottomline : SKIP.

1.5/5
