Kumki

Do not expect much of attention to detail in this film. For instance, the lead actress is portrayed as a tribe, But her language includes some English words too.

Music is excellent. vikram Prabu needs to improvise on his acting skills especially performing emotional scenes. The location chosen is also very good, But again the details are missing, We expect a tattoo or a different style of speaking Tamil form tribes.

I think the movie was over hyped with the presence of Rajni, Kamal and others for the audio release and we expected a lot from the movie which hasn't been met. I would blame the director for dragging the story-line and making every next scene predictable.

Overall, the movie is not worth watching with a high priced ticket. I would say, WAIT UNTIL IT COMES ON IT AND I AM SURE THAT THIS WILL HAPPEN SOONER.

First of all i would like to congratulate the entire film crew for taking up a beautiful script and done it perfectly!

Cast: Vikram Prabhu: what else can he expect more than this from his debut movie! he has chosen his story carefully and has performed with brilliance. he just looks like mahout and has lived the character he played. wonderful film for him for his debut. hope he gets best debut actor award for playing his role naturally.

Lakshmi Menon: she has done a pretty fantastic job. her makeup and acting is so natural and she looks pretty. she looks exactly like a tribal girl.

Tambi Ramaiah and Asvin Raja: they have been there throughout the movie to make is engaged and laughing. good acting by them.

Direction and Screenplay: Prabhu Solomon has done his script carefully and taken it so beautifully so that even if it drags a bit, it keeps the people engaged to the movie. not even a single boring scene in the movie. he has used the special effects smartly in darkness so that it looks perfect

Music: Music by Imman is refreshing and became a huge hit among the audience. excellent reception for songs at theaters where they whistle and sing along the song! Imman has come up with another huge winner. There are tasteful melodies spread across the album while one nice foot tapping number is there as well.

Verdict: The film is a perfect family entertainer and also gives a strong message at the climax.It just shows the reality of current situation among youths. anyway the climax could have ended much more happier. nevertheless , the message conveyed gets into the mind of everyone:)

Go for the movie with your family and friends and i am sure you wont be disappointed. a good meaningful movie which must not be missed.

Kumki was both disappointing and amazing. But If I have to talk about the overall experience, I must say the disappointment over whelms the amazement.

If you are going for this movie expecting that it's a story about a kumki elephant (a trained elephant that's used to scare away even herds of wild, savage, forest elephants) you are going to be disappointed. There was this 5 minute scene where an experienced rider coaches the main character about the bond between the rider and the elephant. About how the will power of the rider fuels the will of the elephant. About how the courage of the rider gives courage to the elephant (sounds avatar-ish, but true). I was so waiting for this throughout the movie. But disappointingly, the whole movie is more about the bond between the main character and his tribal love interest whom he keeps oogling at from a distance while she merrily frolics in the paddy fields.

What's amazing about this move is the cinematography. Many shots in the movie especially those in the songs "ayyayyayyo aanandame", "sollitaale ava kaadale", "soi soi" are breath taking. Gave me goose bumps.

So if want to walkthrough an art gallery of some stunning landscape shots, I mean really stunning shots, go watch the movie, you will be impressed.

Kumki has fast become one of the many memorable movies of contemporary Tamil cinema.

Vikram Prabhu has done justice to the role. His 'Bomman' is portrayed with an integrity that remains concrete through the movie. Lakshmi Menon as 'Alli' does not have a huge role to play and is not as impressive as veteran actresses but is acceptable all the same. The comedy track with Thambi Ramaiah does get predictable and grates towards the end of the movie. Manickam does not disappoint!

That said and done the script is handled with surprising brilliance, apart from the comedy actually. The direction, music and special effects are beautiful. The location the film is shot in is very well incorporated into the film and brings to the movie a sense of realism that very few movies can capture.

A definite must watch for connoisseurs of good and worthwhile Cinema. Definitely a feather in our cap!

Great direction, superb re recording and awesome acrting by everyone. Great cinematography.. This is a must watch.. Hardly get to see such kind of quality movies when all stupid movies are grossing 500 plus crores with no content. Even the comedy in the movies awesome and very different.
