Oru Jaathi Jaathakam

Well it's marketed as a romantic comedy, but it leans more towards dark humor, making it a unique experience. The film is packed with laugh-out-loud moments, seamlessly blending comedy into even the most serious scenes. It takes a bold and uncensored approach to satirizing LGBTQ+ topics, openly mocking societal perceptions while highlighting how, despite claims of progressiveness, these issues are still treated as taboos. The movie also offers a sharp critique of male chauvinism.

Vineeth Sreenivasan delivers an outstanding performance, effortlessly carrying the film with his impeccable comic timing. Scene after scene is laced with humor, making it an engaging watch. The supporting cast complements the narrative well, adding depth and energy to the film. The music is fair not something memorable, but it serves its purpose.

However, the film doesn't hold back, and its unapologetic dark humor might make some viewers feel uncomfortable or offended. It avoids political correctness entirely, which could be seen as refreshing or problematic, depending on one's perspective. Ultimately, "Oru Jaathi Jathakam" is a film that thrives on satire and dark comedy, leaving its interpretation to the audience's personal views. If you enjoy bold, no-holds-barred humor, this one's worth a watch !!

Rating - 3/5

A fun laughter satire drama conveyed through slapstick humour moments.

The story revolves around a man in his late 30's struggling to find a perfect alliance for him matching the conditions set by him & his family.

Rakesh Mantodi has blended many humorous moments through the story portraying many misconceptions and expectations about married life. M Mohanan who is known for his feel good happy ending movies has moved out of his comfort zone and delivered an out and out family laughter entertainer with some sensible and thought provoking messages about relationships.

Impressive performance by Vineeth Sreenivasan as the eccentric character. Good performances by PP Kunjikrishnan,lady who played Vineeth's mother character,Thaha Thug,Renji Kankol,Pooja Mohanraj & Mridul.

Good Background score by Guna Subramaniam bringing quirkiness and excitement to the story.

A watchable flick with family as a fun relaxed weekend entertainer.

It's a storyline with a lot of projections of confused understanding, and an attempt to find comedy through it. Seeing the film made me really miss the ability of certain individuals who were able to make everyone laugh a decade and half ago, it was simply fun and often had a clean finish. Nowadays, not many have that skill. Another thing I noticed is Vineeth is perfect now to portrait a Kollam-based character, his energy-level gives off that vibe. I don't know if the curse word used through-out the film is something commonly used around that area or not, and not including other regional expressions made me feel like they were lazy on that end. The ideology of embracing uncertainty or ambiguity is expressed through out the film, and felt like it is the statement that the film was making. Anyhow, not that good and not that bad, but bearable than some recent ones.

This movie is for you if you want to just forget everything else and start laughing uncontrollably.

This movie deserves better ratings and reviews and i saw that its reviews were not in the zone of 7 and above that i decided to review this.

Vineeth Sreenivasan as an actor has shown great maturity and improvement. The situational comedies in the movie also make satirical mocking of patriarchy, gender norms and homophobia.

I think the film is an example of new age comedy movies where many situations are relatable to the new gen lads. But nevertheless it gives a satiating experience for all. Thank you.
