Komban by M.Muthaiah (Review)



Story: A rural subject in lines with Paruthi Veeran, Kizhakku Chemaiyile and Pasumpon. A story centered on the protagonist, a typical village brave-heart. A lot of family value instilled. But too many cliche.Felt like watching 90's Napoleon movie. Full of village violence, romance, family drama and comedy here and there. An outskirt fight for injustice with a very good message on family value and respect.

Cast: Karthi played Kombaiyapandian@Komban. A very rough and tough village character similar to his Paruthi Veeran character. But the difference was this character is more concern on village justice. Well played since it is not something new for him. He carried out the character very well. Lakshmi Menon played Pazhani, Karthi's lady love. Her presence was pleasant. A sweet village girl and lovely daughter. Had an important role for the flow of the movie. Rajkiran as Muthaiya, he was the man of the match. His performance was superb. He manage to carry out a lot of scene with impact. He played a caring father as well as bad ass man. A lot of supporting characters played by Kovai Sarala, Thambi Ramaiyah, Karunas and others.

Screenplay: The movie had good intro and flow for first half, but it starts getting draggy in second half. It's just that the subject was kind of old school relating to many of 90's village based movies like Seevalaperi Pandi. The scenes involving Rajkiran and Karthi was soothing to watch, but the climax spoiled it. Loved the dialogues. The analogies and accents in the movie was realistic. Fight scenes were average and exaggerated at many scenes. But too many unnecessary fight scenes.

Music: Composed by G.V. Prakaash, was just average. Not his best work

Plus Point: The acting, moral message and dialogues

Minus Point: Draggy first half, lack of originality and unnecessary fight scenes

Verdict: Can be watched once
