Laabam

RATED 6/10 Language: Tamil Source: Netflix

It was not that much bad as reviews... at the same time it is not OK type also... if you like earlier Jananathan movies like Purambokku, you may find this is OK. It has too many serial type dialogs and trying to put message in each and every scene.... If they put bit more attention to the dialogs, this would have been bit better and watchable... After Bhoomi and other corporate farming movies, this one is so repetitive and melodramatic... Strictly for Jananathan fans only.

Almost 100 movies came with this same story line.

Highly disappointed.

The Movie Was Going Good Untill Sruthi Hasan's entry, First Half is Somewhat Ok With Some Little Information, And Second Half, God Please we Such Story Makers Still Exist Overall: Mokka Padam.

My take on Laabam : Such a let down by director SP Jananathan & team The movie wants to deliver so much in the likes of economy, agricultural crops pricing mafia, depletion of natural resource, labor exploitation etc. But the whole idea goes for a toss when the screenplay is super lousy and marred by disaster editing. Character sketching was very weak. Summing all these negatives it becomes un bearable in so many stages and we get some amateur vibes in terms of execution. In terms of casting wasn't impressed by VJS, I have no idea why would Shruthi Hassan or Sai Dhanshika would even accept roles which have literally zero impact.

Verdict: Total disaster VJS star power couldn't save this sinking ship.

When I started watching the movie, I did so for Vijay and his charisma. However, the message of socialism and Marxism ideals of the maker of this movie shone through every scene in the movie. The movie lacks in production value and script could be better polished, but as a medium for spreading the message of socialism, it was really good. Only thing is that socialism doesn't come so easy as it did in this movie.. so that might be a little misleading. However, the movie itself didn't disappoint on any front and entertained and educated in good measure. I heartily recommend this movie to all Vijay fans, but even other comrades might watch this movie to enjoy it.
