It has been a long time since I watched a movie so went to watch Komban over the weekend.
Cast includes Karthi, Lakshmi Menon, Rajkiran, Kovai Sarala, Super Subburayan and some unknown villain characters.
Movie is set in the background of 3 villages - No effort was spent on establishing what the issues are between the people of the villages. Karthi falls for Lakshmi menon and marries her. Not really sure what bad things villains do. Karthi claims that he doesn't like what they do - But no one tells what that is. Just because they are called as villains and the hero beats them up we have to accept that they are villains.
Some stupid cliches like Lakshmi Menon saying she has to accept her husband whatever he does - not sure if even village girls say such things now. But this is after she leaves him and goes with her father - no logic.
Suddenly Karthi in one scene beats up Rajkiran and next scene goes to their house and apologizes and in the end says that father-in-law is like his father. Not sure how such transformation happens.
Rajkiran in the climax shouts like a cat and dog - not sure if that is the custom or what. Seeing it for the first time in a movie.
In the end Karthi beats up the villains and the movie ends. After Madras you expected Karthi to continue to act in good movies - not to be. There is no story or screenplay in this lousy movie.
Most important reason why I went for this movie to understand what was the fuss about - I think I found out. PT leader doesn't like people having such moustaches and if the hero of the movie sports such a moustache he will create trouble - happened with Virumandi and with this also. I found nothing derogatory and offensive in the movie.
Overall a very lousy movie to watch. Please avoid.

"Not really sure what bad things villains do. Karthi claims that he doesn't like what they do - But no one tells what that is." - I was thinking about this too.
ReplyDeleteHope you came across a movie "Sandiyar" (all new casting) few months ago without any issues. Arasiyal :)
That time he wouldn't have got any mileage because it was not a big star movie..
ReplyDeleteWasted money on Watching 'Nanbenda..!'.
ReplyDeleteFrom your review could see that at least Komban has few lines of story to debate/oppose.
What about Viswaroopam which faced issues with out moustaches..!
Viswa - when did you start going to theatre to watch movie? That had religion issues.. now even Uttama Villain is being opposed.. Poor guy
