Ponmagal Vandhal Movie Review

Ponmagal Vandhal Movie Synopsis: A new kid on the block legal advisor prompts the reviving of a famous 15-year-old instance of a dead psycho executioner, asserted to have hijacked and killed young ladies. 

Ponmagal Vandhal Movie Review: JJ Fredrick's Ponmagal Vandhal has been in the news for its creators' choice to release it legitimately on an OTT stage (the primary prominent Tamil film to do as such), and the debate encompassing it. In any case, it takes just a couple of moments into the film for us to understand that the creators were in effect only reasonable by taking this course as opposed to going for a dramatic discharge. For, both in its composition and making, there is a solid cause for TV to feel about this task. 

Ponmagal Vandhal is an unashamed message film in the pretense of a court show and banks entirely on the crusading energy of its lead star to assist it with getting an ideal decision from the crowds. Since the time her arrival to acting, in 2015's 36 Vayadhinile, Jyotika has to a great extent been leading activities that are driven by a message, in any event, acquiring her the sobriquet Female Samuthirakani. As in the entertainer's case, her movies have begun to be just about the message, relinquishing narrating and make all the while. While this probably won't be excessively tricky in a film like Raatchasi, that isn't the situation in this film, basically as a result of its sort - court show. 

The film starts with a quiet visual of a dim mountainscape. However, soon, the calm is broken by weapon shots. We are informed that Jyothi, a North Indian lady, has killed several youngsters who were attempting to protect a young lady whom she had grabbed. News reports guarantee that she is a psycho executioner who captures and murders young ladies. What's more, we discover that she has been shot dead in police activity. The film at that point slices to 15 years after the fact when Venba (Jyotika), a new kid on the block legal counselor, figures out how to get the court to revive Jyothi's case and contends her side. Who is she and for what reason would she say she is gambling everything, particularly with the open slant firmly against her? 

To the extent court dramatizations go, Ponmagal Vandhal is strongly dull. Rather than searing discoursed and charged contentions between the contradicting legal advisors what we get are passionate proclamations being made look like touchy confirmation. What's more, to top it, Fredrick even gives us shots of individuals in the court clearing off their tears on hearing the lead's genuine discourse. Be that as it may, a few lines do hit their imprint - Udal reedhiya thunburuthapatta palapaer kitta unmaiya thavira endha saatchiyum irukkadhu. Furthermore, Ramji's cinematography makes the slope station background wake up, particularly in the night shots. The film uncovers its cards directly in the first place that pretty much every contort does not shock anyone and there is no strain in the procedures. The treatment feels shallow, all the more so in light of the fact that the film manages a delicate issue — sexual maltreatment of kids. 

There are a lot of supporting characters - Venba's dad Petition Pethuraj (K Bhagyaraj), the adversary attorney Rajarathinam (Parthiban, whose Parthibanisms in the discoursed grind as a result of the film's tone), a rich and incredible specialist Varadharajan (Thiagarajan) and the principled appointed authority (Pratap Pothen) - however none of them are created past their one-note attributes. Concerning Jyotika, who gets the opportunity to assume two jobs, she gives us sincerity, however that isn't sufficient to rescue the unreasonably exaggerated story.
