Review: Snakes & Ladders (Tamil Web Series)

Snakes & Ladders is a moderately engaging cops-and-criminals thriller set in a fictional hill town, filled with family drama and teenage misadventures. While it effectively explores themes of friendship, family, and the consequences of impulsive actions, the series lacks consistent energy and intrigue. The performances of the boys and subplots about their relationships with their fathers are noteworthy, but the overall pace feels sluggish. The scenic backdrop of Kodaikanal adds a unique touch, though the show needed more excitement to fully captivate.

⭐ Rating: 4/5.

Its interesting plot. Kid accidentally cause thief death & then story start unfolding.

Dont want to give entire plot, do want people to see this. I can watch this with my 14 years old kid & there are very few series available on ott for such audience.

There are more than few flaws. Till 7th episode, nobody seems to care when school kids not in house till midnight or even after that. Someone visit police station, access room in which police keeping criminal, talk to criminal & no police personnel notice it. A 5/6 year kid using / throwing weapon like thing & no-one really care.

Its really good plot, wish more efforts could put on screenplay.

I felt it's a good story to be read or to be told, but not so good to bring it on screen with so much effort. It is very far from real-world situations. The story is centered around children who are exceptionally brave, which cannot be imagined in real life at all. No twelve-year-old will have the courage to hold a gun! And firing, attempting murders, or stabbing someone is impossible even to be heard of in stories. But I love such thrillers, and definitely one can enjoy the series. There are nine episodes, narrating the story beautifully without creating any confusion. There are no vulgar scenes or extreme rubbish language. Appreciable direction and cinematography, and all the actors have done a great job, especially the young actors, who are too good.

As a huge fan of director Steven Spielberg's child centric films I was immediately intrigued when I watched the promotional material of Amazon's Snakes and Ladders.

The story starts off with an interesting premise and the writing ensures that the tension prevails through all the episodes and finishes off with a bang in the final episodes.

The element of dark comedy adds the much needed relief throughout the series.

The performances by the kids are really good. Actors Naveen and Manoj have given good performances as well.

The music enhances the mood of the story and the shot compositions looked interesting especially in the final few episodes.

Overall a very engaging series that can be binge watched entirely in a single day.
