Two reasons which dragged me to the theatre to watch “Vinnaithandi Varuvaaya” on the First Day was A R Rahman and Gowtham Menon. After watching this movie I found 88 other reasons not to watch this movie.
VTV starts at a church in Kerala which shows Karthik(Simbu) attending Jessy’s(Trisha) marriage..He starts narrating his lovestory between Karthik&Jessy..Flashback shows this Mechanical Engineer cum Aspiring Filmmaker trying to woo jessy and the Interval block takes us back to the first scene at church. Jessy say no to marriage and goes out of the church.
I started this review keeping in mind that I can narrate the whole story that you can understand how much confusing it is ! But I am sorry guys, It’s a lackluster movie and I am a confused soul ever since i watched this movie.
Gowtham Menon has let us down terribly with this movie.There are two scenes in this movie when Karthi talks about their chemistry and Love.But as a viewer I never found any chemistry or love between the lead pair.Its an absolute miscast ! Both of them sleepwalks through their character and I bet you never can find any positive energy in their performance.
The person who acts as karthiks friend makes the first half interesting.The supporting cast is Ok but all is letdown by the shoddy screenplay and characterisation
There are certain combinations which can create magic. One among them is Gowtham-harris jeyraj.We missed Harris Jeyraj in this movie. The music by AR Rahman can termed only as good and the Background score outstanding.
Goutham Menon has been brilliantly supported by his technical department but the director himself is the Culprit for the creation of One of the most boring and confusing movie I have ever seen.
To sum it up Vinnaithandi Varuvaaya(VTV) is a Disaster !
I goes with 1 out of 5 for Gowtham Menons Vinnaithandi Varuvaya !
Verdict: Stay away !
Hi Tnz.....I have been following ur reviews since few weeks, and am happy with ur reviews, but are u sure this movie lets us down.....I was terribly expecting for something gud from Goutham:(.....Am in a dilemma now whether to go n watch this movie or not:(....
ReplyDeleteWow!! Great review and a bold one. This movie is a disaster. Goutham Menon has focussed too much on style and failed miserable in the basic execution. The movie moves pointless for a long time. He keeps showing Trisha and Simbu with closeup shots in just 2 locations. The songs eventhough picturised well resemble his previous movie songs. Background misic is average. There is not chemistry between the pair.
