aint no way theres people calling this a comfort film already 😭 as if this movie isnt like what if tara and adi didnt work out
kiruthiga wanted ok kanmanis nachos SO BAD she tried reheating them lowkey she kinda did but some parts just didnt land. first of all in a romance movie u have to make me feel some sort of chemistry between the leads and i dont know if its because the leads only meet like an hour into the movie cuz of all the plot about the exes (honestly we couldve just skipped all that with a flashback) and didnt have as much screentime together but damn like i personally felt like it was ravi mohan doing nothing like bro he had more chemistry with the son
u introduce a gay character to introduce the sperm bank plot and he literally disappears until the end? (tho ig u can say it is a casual representation but idk im tired of seeing barely any gay rep in indian cinema and even yogi babu returns before the ending so DPMO!!! 😒) and omg speaking of the gay character i find it sooo funny when the trailer dropped all the misogynists took screenshots of the line where ravi mohan was like stfu with ur feminist bs and were like WE ARE GONNA WATCH THIS MOVIEE YASS just to be homophobic when they saw vinay rais character
its like she didnt know wtf to do with the whole mother ignoring shriya plot line? the woman just comes back crying like okay writing inconsistency speaking of the writing the dialogues were TOO ENGLISH ong i never thought id be complaining about that but like i fear only gvm can pull that off 😭
probably the worst ar rahman music ive ever listened to in recent times. god like the yenai ilukuthu di is the only good song and i especially hated the song when she gets pregnant i literally wanted to skip so bad
also the way shriya was acting about having baby fever? that lady only wanted a baby not a child 🤣 the fucking kid ran away twice and she was so chill about it bro really speaks on how horrendous the writing is, they want us to believe that shes a good mother but they show us otherwise?
ok it seems like ive been complaining the whole time let me listen to some positives
- nithya menon is a gem and we need to hope she continues to act forever
- i thought ravi mohan would never act in a movie like this cuz of his image so good job ig
- DIDNT END IN BOTH OF THEM GETTING MARRIED!!! omg this should have been the first thing i mention in this review cuz all i do is complain about how ok kanmani ended with them getting married so it was really refreshing to see this take on a love story
- THEY DIDNT FIND OUT THAT HE WAS THE FATHER!! most movies try to make that connection and its like okay give me something new???
- vinay rai, lal and vinodhini vaidynathan are wonderful supporting actors and i love seeing them in films
- maybe its cuz ive been watching the hangover series but the guy shriya was with at the start of the movie was giving bradley cooper
- tj bhanus character wasnt giving anything at all at the start in fact i despised it when she was like i can change him after marriage 😇 but when they brought her back and was like im the only one whos seen u in love that was sweet i liked thatreading back i think i was very nitpicky but thats also lowkey im in a terrible mood and sick maybe i'll rewatch it and feel better about it in a year 🙂 but this was a good movie as it discussed sex/relationships b4 marriage and with all the clips the instagram creators are posting u can see how conservative our society is, u may think its very surface level but this type of shit needs to be normalised to them (kinda like when barbie came out and everyone was like well this is not the feminism win you think it is) and maybe the last time we discussed queer people was goa? maybe i dont watch enough tamil movies lol and even in goa it was used as a gag. i was pleasantly surprised to see he wasnt written as a gay caricature. another win for the women written by women crowd 😊
