Small movies, benefit from experimentation.They also bring the joy of film making to the fore.
In defining four central characters in less than thirty seconds, the debutant director underlines, great things that can be expected from him.
In recreating a particular sequence, with the essence of 'Birdman' intact, the music theme(the calibrated drum beat), the camera moving around like a paint brush, with gay abandon and the editor freaking out, the discerning viewer is in for a lot of fun!!!!
But one man who steals the show, with his extraordinary acting performance is Bharathiraja. There is this three minute, possible, single take, where he is in complete control, regaling you with a story that is bound to send you into tears.
Bharathiraja Sir, in the last forty years, you have probably acted in half a dozen films. I think it is an unpardonable crime. You have denied, the Tamil Audiences, the pleasure of seeing you in many more roles.
Then there has to be a mention about Kumaravel, who breezes through with his menace. I guess with the range of Kumaravel's(Remember Ravi Shastri in 'Abiyum Nanum') capabilities, one wonders how we do not see more of Kumaravel.
It is exactly a year ago, that I saw Kutttrame Thandanai. I am happy to see Vidharth persevere with good films like ' Oru Kidavin Karunai manu' and now KB. Good Luck, Vidharth!. For a man who exploded with Mynaa, luck may not be on your side, but perseverance will take you places. Your charm and screen presence is in tact.
The mandatory love track and two misplaced song sequences effectively bring down, what could have been a superlative experience.
