Kuruthi Aattam

As a ward boy in a government hospital, Shakti gets involved in a blood game and stumbles between violence, friendship and love.

Although it is a story line that has already appeared many times in Tamil cinema, the story and screenplay are not strong in any way.

This film depicts the violent environment in madurai. This film claims that madurai means violence. Violence and mercenaries are not only in Madurai, it is spread all over the world. But tamil cinema shows that these are happening in only southern regions of Tamil Nadu and this film is not an expection to that.

Maybe it's because, we hear lot of news from those areas.

Though this a weak story, atleast the screenplay might have helped this film from becoming non boring but here it's not the case. Only the characters are designed well in the screenplay.

The artists who were acted in this film gave their full performances which depicts on screen wonderful. Especially the artists who performed in the characters Muthu, his short tempered friend, the ex-convict, his wife and a little girl gave top notch performances.

These characters stays in mind for long after watched this film. They should be definitely appreciated for their roles.

Coming to the technical aspects of this film, editing was so much impressive. Cinematography and music was good.

So many impressive frames are there in this film. Sri Ganesh, the director proves that he is one of a well trained and knowledgeable assistant from the director Mysskin in that aspect. Some shots and scenes that are designed in the film reminds of the director Mysskin's flavour. Especially the climax reminds me of Myskkin's Anjathe.

Definitely we should not compare a filmmaker by his previous works. But Director Sri Ganesh gave a soulful film in his debut film. But this film made his audience disappointed. Many audience applauds when the director name showed off at the opening credit and they were murmured by named him 'hey this is Ettu thottakkal film director' with so much curiosity. But in the end they were so much disappointed including me.

Should have been so much better but feel sorry to say that it is so much boring.
