Sthanarthi Sreekuttan

Director Vinesh Viswanath makes a delightful debut with *Sthanarthi Sreekuttan*, tackling one of the toughest challenges in filmmaking: crafting a movie *about* kids and *with* kids, while treating them with the depth and respect usually reserved for adults. Here, the children are not "cute-ified" or simplified. Instead, Vinesh assembles a remarkable cast of young talents, each of whom delivers nuanced and captivating performances under his direction.

Set against the backdrop of a classroom election in a government school, the film embraces the essence of a "mass movie." Vinesh's vision shines through not only in his storytelling but also in his technical finesse. His shot division-combined with the way he and his editor have reimagined the screenplay-features slightly exaggerated cutaways and impeccably timed reaction shots, adding layers of humor and drama. The result is a vibrant and engaging cinematic experience that is both playful and impactful.

Excellent movie. The actors performance were remarkable. The film is a heartwarming journey that bridges generations. Though crafted for children, it speaks to the child within all of us, evoking a delightful sense of nostalgia. The film beautifully blends humor, innocence, and subtle lessons, making it a treat for audiences of all ages.

Watching it through the eyes of my 6-year-old daughter was pure joy. She was completely engrossed, giggling at the lighthearted moments and curious about the story's twists. It's rare to find a film that entertains children while taking adults back to their carefree days, but Sthanarthi Sreekuttan manages it effortlessly.

A must-watch for families looking to laugh, reminisce, and bond over a truly delightful cinematic experience!

*A Wonderful Movie: Sthanarthi Sreekuttan*

I just watched Sthanarthi Sreekuttan, and it's an amazing film! The director, Vinesh Viswanath, did a fantastic job of bringing the story to life.

The kid actors in the movie were incredible. They acted so naturally and made the story feel real. The director must have worked really hard to get such great performances from them.

The movie looks great too. The pictures are clear, the editing is smooth, and the sound is perfect. Editor Kailash S Bhavan has done some mesmerizing work with his edit tools. Its amazing how well the director and his team did with a limited budget.

In short, Sthanarthi Sreekuttan's film is a masterclass in storytelling, direction, and performances. It's a testament to the power of good storytelling, regardless of budget constraints. If you haven't seen the film yet, do yourself a favor and experience it on the big screen.

*Recommendation:* A must-watch for everyone!

This is a good movie, particularly for children who are academically inclined or generally perform well in school. At first, I was a bit skeptical about watching it, but after seeing the film, I was pleasantly surprised. I didn't feel any lag or dull moments throughout the movie. As a parent of a child in the same age group as the characters in the film, I found myself relating to many of the situations and emotions portrayed.

I would definitely recommend this movie to all parents - it's a great choice for a family outing, and I encourage everyone to take their kids to watch it.

The screen editing and screenplay are both impressive, and I never once felt that the relatively new faces in the industry did not fit their roles. They performed remarkably well. Aju Varghese and Sreekutty's performances were particularly noteworthy, adding depth and charm to the film. Overall, it's an enjoyable, well-made movie that is both entertaining and relatable for kids and their families.

Again recommended to watch before getting removed from theatre.

The film was well made and a must watch for students and teachers. Mostly importantly, the film carries a very strong message in terms of the change that has to happen in schools, which could bring in equality among students. Aju Varghese, who was always seen in comical roles, played a negative character and was to perfection. This defnitely would be a change of guard for him, in terms of the roles he would get to play in the future.

All the kids who had acted in the film, were brilliant. Kudos to the director and casting director. Music was lovely and apt to the situations. Do watch the film.
