Naadu

RATED 8/10 Language: Tamil Source: Amazon Prime RECOMMENDED

Initial portions of the movie give serial drama feeling, but once the sentiment/message is passed on to the audience, it become solid drama. The best part is that the director made the engaging social drama with all new faces.

Even though it is sad and simple story, they avoided as much as cliche in the screenplay. Most of the village/Tamil movie rules are broken in this one.

Give a try, you wont regret it. Worth the watch.

Repeating again for 600 char limitation: Give a try, you wont regret it. Worth the watch.

After Karnan (Dhanush starrer Movie) , this too is a strong subject around Rural people's sufferings and impact of out poor govt systems to sustain life amenities to them. Story line, cast, screenplay and cinematography has worked amazing in this venture. People have to watch this to know what goes through in the remote area's of human civilization, still centuries behind due lack of their focus by the changing govts. Direction feels very meticulously executed , not to get influenced by any cinema making gimmicks. Actors too are very well chosen for their roles , giving its natural niche behind the story. This movie deserves a higher rating.

Its a beautiful movie with a fantastic message. Camera work, though simple, has an impact. Location and cast had played a vital role in making the movie stick in your mind. Background score and songs by Sathya is very impactful. Leading cast members have done a fantastic job. The movie has been neglected by Tamil industry, which is sad. Story line keeps you occupied and has no points where one would feel detached from the movie. This should have been a celebrated movie, but for some unknown reason, its not even advertised enough. I felt that this movie could be a real winner among the hearts of many people.

I watched this film with a lot of expectations, however the film fails miserably to impress. A good storyline that was marred by poor acting skills, and narration.

The doctor who arrives in a jaguar car, and looks like a model ready to walk the ramp does not cut much ice and is out of place in what is essentially a remote rural setting. The tiger looks so unreal, that it looks like one of the stuffed dolls that are sold on the roadside. Surely with today's visual effects one could always create a CGI tiger like in the movie, the life of pi.

The actors lack professional acumen, and look like amatuers who need to improve their acting skills.

While technically the film was good, it really failed to impress. What message was the director trying to convey here? Is he trying to convey that the NEET exam is unfair? Although the rest of the country accepts it, or does he convey that the standard of government schools in Tamilnadu is so bad, that a good student who gets excellent scores in her state board is unable to tackle a national eligibility exam.
