Miruthan

The concept of Zombies is not new for Hollywood where there are enormous number of movies based on Zombies in fact we can find thriller, horror, Sci-fi and even comedy based on the same concept. Strictly in an Indian context I suppose we don't even have the direct translation of the word Zombie in Hindi or Tamil. So I wouldn't say this is first of its kind movie in India because few years back we had a movie named Go Goa gone starring Saif Ali khan based on zombies' attack. With that note I don't have to say further Miruthan is undoubtedly a zombie flick. So kudos to the director Shakthi Soudar rajan for experimenting this genre which is entirely new for Tamil audience. Long story short the hero tries to save a group of doctors who will find the antidote for a virus spread among the town which makes people go violent and crazy blood thirsty animals. Jayam Ravi who had a wonderful 2015 with four releases out of which three hits opens his account for this year with this different movie. He is the protagonist who plays a Traffic sergeant has done a pretty decent justice to the role. Lakshmi Menon as the Doctor and love interest of the hero. Her characterisation suffers credibility and reality. We see her dumb at times and unrealistic as well. Supported by ensemble TV artists. Technically the movie has got above average graphics and cinematography. But the BGM lets down on a bigger note turning the serious scenes to a comic note. Overall the movie lacks clarity on whether the director had tried it as a horror- comedy or stand-alone comedy or horror thriller flick. We come out confused. It can be a definite once watch for the new concept and experimentation on a Zombie genre. Despite the logic flaws for making it an entertainer my rating would be 6.5/10. -Sivakumar Balachandran

Those who haven't watched a zombie movie yet, this one is for you.

Miruthan may be just another zombie movie for those who watched many zombie blockbusters like World War Z, Zombieland and I am Legend but this one has to be appreciated for making such a brave attempt.

This one is not a technically sound movie. But Tamizh cinema grows because of movies like this one.

Thanks to Shakthi Soundar Rajan for introducing the zombie genre in South Indian Cinema Industry.

Don't see much logic in this movie and just enjoy the thriller killer movie!

Good and decent but the action should be more good.
