Superb black comedy movie & I love the colour scale of the film

As one of Siddharth's fans, I was waiting for this film for a long time(Near 7 months).Fortunately, this film didn't let me down. Positive Points:

1.Music: this is definitely one of the most highlight points.Music is fresh just like the film is. Vishal Chandrashekar has a bright future.

2.Acting: Seeing Radha Ravi in a different role and seeing Sannath and Avinash together again (after demonte colony) was nice.All actors did a good job with their unusual roles.

3.Colors:I love colors!That blue hair and pink car...I wish I could watch it on big screen.

4.Cinematography: Among all technical works, maybe this is the best. The shooting scenes and slow motions were done perfectly.

5.New Attempt for not just Tamil cinema: I know there were some movies with this genre before like jigarthanda and soodhu kavvum, but we have to admit there was nothing like this in kollywood!

6.The Story: The story is simple but interesting

7.Comedy: There are some adult jokes but I don't complain!Interval is one of the best intervals I've ever seen in kollywood

Negative Points:

1. The Screenplay: Though the story is fine, but the director couldn't write it on paper properly.

2.The climax: It was not good! A big let down for the film

3. It's definitely entertaining but it's also irritating a few times

Overall: This is more than just a film. It's the gate of a new world for Tamil cinema. Unfortunately I think critics didn't appreciate this film enough. It'll be a cult film one day. You know it's just like Boys! (2003 Tamil film) Mixed reviews from critics,average box office and now it's known as a cult film

*Thoughts (No review) from Quentin Tarantino fan who loves this genre films* Jil Jung Jukis an 'Hopefull' film and here is why: Firstly I saw the trimmed version of the film and I loved it. With adult rated talks to long jibber-jabberr's (Yes, At the start you wonder why but at the course of the film you will get to know why those long conversations were inserted into the film), quickie humour to unexpected twists the film is fully inspired from Quentin Tarantino films and other internet sensation jokes inspired from Guy Riitchie films.

As a Quentin Tarantino fan I would rather give a pat at Dheeraj Vaidy's back and say 'well tried and done'. This film and this genre will become a cult in years to come.

Vishal Chandrasekhar's BGM is one of the highlights of the film and I felt that the starting title card number 'casanova' sung by Andrea is under-rated.

Actor Siddharth as a producer has done a great job and I hope he continues his good work by supporting young talented directors.

OFF TOPIC: Currently with this new gen directors it looks like an star actor reference (Mostly VIjay, Ajith) has become a must. Seriously? Having an unwanted 1 minutes actor reference will never bring those actors fans to theater but a good film surely does. Hopefully this shitty trend comes to an end.

The story revolves around a well designed pink car(sarcasm intended). The script is good, humor is the lifeline of such a movie.

This isn't everyone's cup of tea. JJJ is really witty and has excellent cinematography and soundtracks. The climax could've been better. That clock thing in the climax was bad. Until then the movie kept me entertained. It's an ambitious movie. Just the writing wasn't good enough. It lacked consistency. Director Deeraj Vaidy is a promising talent. Too bad he didn't get much projects after this. I hope to get to see more movies like this but with better writing and zero cliches.
