Vadakkupatti Ramasamy

It's disheartening to observe the prevalence of online reviews seemingly influenced by paid endorsements, resulting in an abundance of ratings lacking substantive comments. Despite this trend, I feel compelled to share my authentic perspective as a genuine viewer from America. The movie, in question, stands out as a comedic gem that not only entertained me but also surpassed my expectations.

In my sincere opinion, the comedic elements within this film outshine even notable productions such as 'DD Return.' Moreover, I'm bold enough to assert that it surpasses the comedic aspects of the Leo movie, which, in comparison, pales in its humor quotient. It's refreshing to witness a comedy that truly resonates, and I believe it deserves recognition beyond the sea of potentially biased reviews. My intent is to contribute a genuine and thoughtful assessment, countering the prevailing noise with an earnest portrayal of the movie's comedic brilliance.

Vadakkupatti Ramasamy

A review by Rajesh Puvvada

If you want to forget the real world stress and laugh until your stomach ache, this movie is a treat from the Lollu Sabha gang!!

I used to really adore the Lollu Sabha gang and await their spoofs in Vijay TV every week. Now I watch those select episodes on YouTube. I used to wonder what happened to Seshu, Maaran , Swaminathan et all. You get some wholesome entertainment from these guys once again. I would say it's a Lollusabha reunion.

The first half of the movie is a drag but it sets the stage for a fantastic second half. Imagine what happens when Motta Rajendran and M S Bhaskar and some funny faces join the lollusabha gang it will leave you with loud laughter if handled well.

The screen play and comedy has been carefully handled and comedy content is fully packed across the movie. The additional comedy cushion offered with Nizhalgal Ravi came out funny, fit and proper.

The film picks up the "Period Film" format with a village setting and the plot fits well within the format!!

Good News is there is a story in this movie, and the story speaks. Further roles for heroines in movies these days are light plot wise and they are typically brought in as a compulsive embellishment. But in this movie the role of the heroine is solid within the plot.

We were long awaiting for a family entertainer and finally it has come by. So go with your family and laugh out loud.

Going with a 4/5. The movie can also be watched on OTT when it shows up but how about going out with family together!!

My expectations for Santhanam movies are always the lowest it could ever be. Last year alone I watched three of his movies in theaters and ended up hating them all. In fact, "Kick" is still by a large margin the worst movie of 2023 in my opinion. So the fact that "Vadakkupatti Ramasamy" wasn't really horrible came as somewhat of a surprise.

Here is the movie's biggest win - it had a rather grounded and coherent plot; something that's always missing in Santhanam's movies. The comedy was definitely hit-or-miss, but it wasn't unforgivably annoying; as again, has been the trend in all of his movies. "Vadakkupatti Ramasamy" tells the story of an atheist from an extremely superstitious village and how he decides to profit off the gullibility of the villagers by constructing a temple and monetizing everything around it. The plot and ensuring conflicts are decent enough and doesn't really try to be anything more than it is, and that works out extremely well in its favor.

Sometimes silly and sometimes satire, "Vadakkupatti Ramasamy" ends up being a Santhanam movie you could actually sit through without a fuss; which coming from me, is as high a praise for his movies as I could ever give these days.

If i am being honest i went into the movie with little to no expectations as Santhanam's movies have been either a big hit or a huge miss. But this film pleasently surprised me Storywise there is not much but the screenplay and the comedic acting(everyone including Santhanam have done a splendid job). Almost every joke in this film connects with the audience with many memorable comedy scenes to reflect on later. Had an absolutely fun time in the theatres with family. It would be better to watch this in theater because the experience is amazing. The negative or mixed reviews are very surprising to say the least. The best way to view the film is to go with an open mind and Laugh your hearts out.

Cheers!!.

If you are really someone who like to laugh at silly comedies and dialogues this movies is for you

The whole theatre was laughing out loud during entire first half and the second half was also maintained the pace .

After DDreturns this is one of the best comedy movies of Santhanam I would say

The recent movies such as Leo was nothing when compared to the amount of heart felt emotion se got for this movie

The entire theatre enjoyed it and it was very well worked

Best thing about Santhanam is that he is still keeping up the same old gang he was from without forgetting or leaving them behind we can see this gang every film with him .
