Paranthu Po / Fly Away

Director and the actors/actresses need to be complimented for a very good, family entertainment movie with a message for parents. Director RAM has come up with a simple, powerful story and has done a very good job extracting the best out of even child actors Mithul and Jess. The pain of middle-class life is expressed very well by the lead actors - Shiva and Grace. Young Mithul must be a very good dancer. Simple story but with an important message of the need for parents to spend time with their children. Compliments to the whole team for a good family entertainment which seems to be rare nowadays.

Overall you will enjoy the movie.. but too much unrealistic scene which made me rate this low..

How will you remember your childhood crush?

, will the parents allow the kid to roam as per his wish ? Really ? In this world .. could have had some other ways of doing.

Which family allows a stranger and his son in the bunglow and ask them to dance..

Many open ending scene.

There were lots of light moments, good message in the movie.

Staying with the 'Slice of Life' genre in Kollywood, Paranthu Po has received a lot of good reviews and is finally on streaming.

The film urges you to take a break from 'life' every now and then, to not only look after what your children want, but also after what the child within wants, no matter how old you are. As a story - Good. It's not your traditional "setup, problem, resolution" storytelling but more of a "go with the flow" type of type. You'll be disappointed if you expect a 3-act structure. The story story simply starts and ends like a regular day.

The acting, messaging, music - All good. As a film - Good for the most part. Siva and Grace were good. So glad the kid in the movie wasn't portrayed as a 'smartass know-it-all' kid for comedic purposes. Some negatives - I don't know if the whole nostalgia baiting "crush" segment was necessary, felt forced. You may feel it's slow, even that it drags along, in the 2nd half.

The film says "Happiness is right there, waiting to be found, if you know where to look" - easier said than done, especially in this economy. While it wasn't the feel good movie I thought it would be, it's still a good one-time watch that leaves you with several things to reflect on - your parents, your kids - if you have any, and the amount of work one has to put in, to simply exist in this day-and-age.

Sound plays a major role in this film's emotional impact. Arul Murugan's sound design and M. R. Rajakrishnan's audiography create a world that feels immediate and immersive. From the ambient noises to the intentional silences, everything works to serve the emotional rhythm.

Rajashekaran's color grading, Karthik Kambettan's VFX, Jaikumar Vairavan's stills, and the team behind the film's publicity and creative campaigns - Twenty. One. G (Pravin P. K) and On The House - all contribute to a consistent, aesthetic and emotional identity. The teaser edit by Pradeep E Ragav deserves a mention for setting the tone right from the start.

Credit also goes to producers Ram, V Gunasekaran, V Karupuchaamy, and V Shankar for backing a film that prioritizes artistic integrity over commercial calculation.

I watched this movie recently and to be honest I created my IMDb account just to review this movie it's one of the best Tamil movies that I have recently seen,the cast is really good and I genuinely wish that they make a sequel (unlikely though) to talk more about the cast it's perfectly chosen and the characters that are encountered genuinely seem like people that we might see in our day to day lives I don't see what's so "unrealistic" about this movie as literally any movie has fictional or unrealistic aspects to it I can't think of a part where I was bored I highly recommend watching it if you haven't this don't waste your time watching 500 crore budget movies instead watch something that reignites something in your heart like this movie.
