Kutram 23 movie review 🎥
The movie is promoted as a medical thriller so the audience clearly knows they are going to watch what type of movie. Further the director clarifies the audience what type of medical thriller by running a artificial insemination video in the back drop of the title card. The first frame of the movie starts with a daughter in law insulted by a mother in law for not bearing the child for 6 years. So the audience are very clear to watch what the movie is about.
Story plot : Medical investigative thriller with a series of suicide by pregnant women who is behind it forms the plot of the movie.
Plus : Arun Vijay perfect for the role of asst commissioner with his macho body.
Good BGM and soothing melodies.
Stylish making of the film.
Excellent cinematography and crisp editing.
Light hearted comedy by Thampi ramaiyya
Minus :
100% predictable screenplay with 0% thrill
Cinematic liberty and pretty ordinary climax.
The motive of the villain is unclear whether money or child.
My personal opinion is now a days all the fertility clinics are doing artificial insemination with 100% transparency and ethical way. But the fertility doctors are shown as white collar criminals.
The medical representative and medical attendants are shown as villains. I am not able to digest this concept being a true pharmacy professional and having knowledge about medical fraternity.
The movie also preaches wrong MSG to the society that any lady can give birth to a child with characteristics which they like rather than belonging to the characteristics of the father, which is against Indian culture.
Only thing the audience has to decode from the thriller is the no 23 in the title. If you have basic /medical knowledge it is easy to decode
The movie ends up with a positive note supporting child adoption.
Though the movie is getting positive reviews around the corner as medical professional I am seeing only the false Msgs.
Director Arivazhagan totally lost its gripping track in the way he presented the movie Eeram.
Rating 2/5
Final verdict : Predictable thriller stylish in it's making.
