Story
Das (Vijay Sethupati) and his three
friends Sekhar (Ramesh), Pagalvan (Simhaa) and Kesavan (Ashok Selvan)
are jobless jacks. One day Das and his friends plan to get a huge amount
by kidnapping local politician’s (CJ Bhaskaran) son Prakasham. After
kidnapping Arumai Prakasham they will face many problems in the form of
terrific police. Handling and overcoming all the hurdles in this
expedition form the core part of the movie.
Performances
Vijay Sethupati
performs a stunning performance as Das. He plays the key role and most
promising performance by him is always watchable. We can expect even
more from him in future.
Sanchitha Shetty is just glamour doll in this film. She plays a decent imaginary friend of Das.
Simhaa performed well
as innocent guy and Ramesh and Karuna karan delivers more than adequate
performances. CJ.Bhaskaran, Radha Ravi and Ranjith are appropriate.
Technical Analysis
Santosh Narayan’s has delivered great
music for Soodhu Kavvum. All the songs were well received and background
score for Soodhu Kavvum is pleasing. Cinematography by Dinesh Krishnan
is visually rich except for pre climax scene. Nalan Kumarasamy impresses
with his directorial debut film. Screenplay is engaging and gripping,
dialogues are effective, Editing is crisp.
Analysis
Nalan Kumarasamy should get credits for
mold such a simple plot into an astonishing entertainer. Director has
done a great job in dealing story with a great ease. Though the story is
straightforward and effective screenplay makes the movie plot
unpredictable. Simhaa, RJ Ramesh and Karuna Karan steals the show along
with most promising actor of recent times Vijay Sethupati. Soodhu Kavvum
deals with effects of being honest with the political people. The only
problem with Soodhu Kavvum is that it may send some off beam signs for
some category of people.
Final Verdict
Soodhu Kavvum is another gripping entertainer from Pizza makers.
