Tamil hero Vishal, is one actor who is doing films back to back. He is now ready with his latest film ‘Kathakali’ which has released today. Let’s see how it is.

Story:

Kamal(Vishal) is a US based software engineer who heads back to his native village to marry his sweetheart Malleswari(Catherine Tresa). During the same time, one of the famous persons in his village, Samba(Madhusudhana Rao) gets murdered all of a sudden.

The cops suspect Kamal as both his and Samaba’s families have some age old rivalry. Situation gets worse and Kamal ends up into all sorts of problems. Who killed Samba ? What is his rivalry with Kamal’s family ? and how does Kamal solve all his problems ? That forms the rest of the story.

Plus Points:

Mystery element

Thrilling Sequences

Minus Points:

Romantic episode

Comedy

Technical Aspects:

As said earlier, screenplay is a huge asset as the proceedings are showcased in a simple manner. Background score composed by Hip Hop Thamiza is quite good and elevates the film to another level. Production values by Vishal and his company are pretty good when compared to his previous films. Coming to the director Pandiaraj, he has done a okay job with the film and does not deviate from the point much.

Verdict:

On the whole, Kathakali is a passable murder mystery interlinked with good family emotions. The simple suspense element and single point agenda of the film makes things watchable. If you ignore the lack luster love story and keep your expectations in check, you can give this film a shot if you have nothing else to do.
