Kaakkaa Muttai

Kaaka Muttai - the pizza 'dream'

simple realistic but brilliantly shot movie! Simply excellent!

GV Prakash gave one of the best BGMs in recent times, lifting the whole essence of the movie. The lead characters - played by two boys, did excellent in showing realism! Everyone acted to the script and nothing went haywire.

Very great to see the whole theater went into applause after the climax Good to see the appreciation this has received.

Easily the Best of 2015!!

Note: Simbu on screen after a long long time!!

Go and watch in theaters don't miss this gem!

What a movie,no words to praise.Simple movie yet a lot of emotions and funny sequences.That two kiddos brilliantly acted.I liked the climax scene.I didn't expect such a climax scene.Both the kids 'Ramesh' and 'Vignesh' are outstanding and have won the National Award for their performance in the movie. 'IshwaryaRajesh' who acted as the mother of the brothers is a revelation and she reminds us those dark-talented heroines of 'BaluMahendra' films. The supporting cast of RameshThilak, 'Yogi', 'BabuAntony' are aptly cast and grab our attention. Only drawback I have noticed is the bgm's.The film lacks a catchy background music.

A very well made movie.

Loved the soft theme of the film. Very different from the usual "formula" movies made in Tamil. All the actors and technical aspects of the film are very impressive and top notch. The story keeps picking up pace as the movie progresses and keeps the viewer on edge.

The lead kids have acted naturally. The other actors have performed their roles very well too.

The background score is very mature and lively. Songs have been inter-weaved in to the movie without the usual "escapistic"songs of an Indian film

Cinematography in this film is one of its very strong points. The angles and smoothness of the frames is amazing.

A very good movie... Some might find it slow.

A simple movie with a simple thought with simple direction with simple little kids' wondrous performances..

The story revolves around two little boys living in the slum and their desire to taste Pizza. Vignesh and Ramesh who portrayed Periya Kakkamuttai and Chinna Kakkamuttai delivered excellent performances throughout the movie. Ishwarya Rajesh did a good job acting as their mother (i think she in her mid 20s). Babu Antony fared well, Yogi Babu & Ramesh Thilak did their comic role in a good way..

Thanks for Simbu (after a long time in a feature film) participating in this Dhanush's small venture.

Director M. Manikandan did an exciting job with his pen as well as his actions.. His direction was top notch. The camera which captured the reality (dirty slums) but was featured in a much attractive way (We cant even see this in normal movies at all). GVP delivered a good refreshing songs and were much more apt. The background score were also too good. The making was excellent.

overall a real fresh movie sparked with Scintillating performances.

Not to be missed..

To the average viewer this might just be another really good movie. But others who catch the absolutely brilliant subtext throughout the movie will thoroughly enjoy it while at the same time introspect how we never stop to contemplate the miserable inequality in the country in our busy lives(even if we are aware of it and find it woeful, visuals always remind us how bad it really is). It will definitely change the outlook of a lot of people on equality, privilege and related things.

The movie follows the life of two slum kids as they aspire to eat from the new pizza shop opened next to their home(if you can call it one). The movie captures their journey as they try to make the money needed for the pizza and the eventual turn of events. The movie beautifully captures the glaring social inequality without you having to cry through it. The movie addresses a lot of issues too in the most subtle manner. There is no dearth for humor either which makes this movie a complete package though it is a bit saddening that we need to look for humor in this movie. And all the actors have done a brilliant job. Kudos to Iyshwarya Rajesh who has gone out of her comfort zone to give a brilliant performance. As for the title you'll figure it out yourself. This is a must watch movie.
