Kaaka Muttai by M.Manikandan (Review)



Story: A photo-realistic movie with slum backdrop . Very engaging narration. The story had different spectrum of characters and perception of life each with their own life goal. The pattern of the plot was smooth, not complicated and very sweet to watch. Good family value, humour, and messages. Child-centric story in-line with pasanga and thanga meengal. A true masterpiece.

Cast: Ramesh and Vignesh played the lead role. Super adorable and soothing. well performed. Very realistic and they deserve the national award. Iyshwarya Rajesh as their mother. The typical slum mother image but very convincing with speech and dialogue deliverance. Very well performed young mother character. Babu Anthony played grey role, an almost antagonist. Not much of scope to perform yet he did well for his character. Supporting characters played by Ramesh Thilak, Yogi Babu and many others. Not many casts in this film since it was centralized on main few characters.

Screenplay: It's not easy to bring out the right emotion from a child artist. But the director succeeded. The scenes had good continuity and no exaggeration. Dialogues were raw, how it should be for a slum community. The good things about the movie, the director were more engaged in bringing out the performance of the actors rather than masala factors. He justifies the relevance of the scene for each transitions. Not lengthy just nice. A movie to be watched with family.

Music: Composed by G.V.Prakaash. Nice and soothing. But didn't play that much of a role in the movie

Plus Point: Story, Screenplay, Cast and Acting

Minus Point: Very minimal cliche

Verdict: Tip top family entertainer.
