JIGARTHANDA MOVIE REVIEW



It's been almost a year since I did my reviews and Mr Karthik Subbaraj, you've made me to write this up because your Jigarthanda was freakin delicious!

Whistle and clap points :

  • Cast that fitted their roles perfectly
  • Flawless performance from Simha, Karuna and Siddharth
  • Background music from S.Narayanan was magical
  • First-class editing, cinematography and camera work and probably one of the best in Tamil industry till date
  • Vijay Sethupathi's cameo appearance was well done
  • Storyline that grips you for an almost three hour film. The heart-stopping intermission block and a couple of twist and turns henceforth made the film special and worthwhile.
The so-so points :
  • Lakshmi Menon did justice to her role and despite the three hour runtime, she had just a limited screen time but my god she did made an impact during emotional scenes.

 Mokke points:
  • None

While the first half of the film gives enough thrills, the second will just simply turn you around from what you expected it to be. The hardwork thrown into it is clearly seen and my sincere wishes that the film will be a super-hit!

Conclusion : Fresh, gripping and refreshing. Jigarthanda sets up the benchmark in Tamil cinema. Mass and class served well!
