Film / Documentary - Recently watched & worthy of some discussion

[Mahen]

Kartik Subbaraj's Jigarthanda arrives with a lot of expectations, especially after the iconic Pizza.
In fact, he uses the same technique of story-telling here. A whole build-up and the last 10 min twist.
I actually prefered the second half rather than the first.

The hero and heroine of Jigarthanda are Simha and Sidharth, respectively. Hate-the-sight-of-her LM makes yet another appearance. Thankfully, her part in the whole movie hardly exceeds 15 mins. Simha roars while Sidharth meows. Perhaps Kartik should have taken his own advice and used an appropriate actor for the lead role. Sidharth is so unconvincing, and when he acts "local" its side-splitting.

Vijay Sethupathi does a cameo. And what a brilliant performance! Perhaps Vijay Sethupathi would have been the ideal lead?

Thankfully there is only one song, and two other quarter ... songs. Santhosh's BGM, as always, is good.

I wonder who did the English sub-titling - using swear words is NOT acceptable!

I am confused - is it a good movie or not? Normally, I will judge by how I feel at the end of the movie - if I feel that I want to watch again, its a good movie. If not, it's not. Perhaps I will watch a second time when it plays on TV soon.....

I fail to understand why LM keeps getting offers
