One thing I totally appreciated in this movie was its honest portrayal of a very local theme. It revolves around a man's ethical dilemma - his role as a caretaker of an adopted family versus his role as a daring lover. It's very refreshing to see directors take up ethical concepts and treat them in a slightly formal, lyrical way, with plenty of opportunity for personal judgment and criticism.The movie begins with a very short and almost careless introduction to the love story. Prasanna goes to Kutralam in search of the girl of his dreams, with no idea that she is indeed the sister of one of his best friends. While waiting for her to return from her school-trip, there is an interesting turn of events that puts a lot of emotional pressure on his original intentions.The comedy track (Vadivelu), however, left a lot to be desired. It was completely disjointed from the movie, and was very ordinary. Music was quite ordinary too, and I think the movie could have done better without the songs or the comedy. But sometimes I forget the movie was made in India.It was a pleasure to see Kutralam and the lush green settings of rural India for a change. Thumbs up for honest movie making, and thanks to the passer-by at the local video store here in California for suggesting "Kannum Kannum".
