Naalu Peruku Nalladhuna Edhuvum ThappilaReview - A small film that warrants some attention

Bharath Vijayakumar

Plot:

When a golden goose falls in  the hands of four small-time fraudsters.

The film gets off to a very promising start with quite a rush. No time is wasted and we are directly into the plot.

The actors are new and quite raw at times. But this hardly matters as there is not much place for emotions and the director has a definite hold on the narrative.Even the few scenes that connect on an emotional level are downplayed. The message too is not shoved down your throat. The twists are neatly done and blend seamlessly.

The only real time the film struggles is in the second half when it attempts comedy by impersonating a psychologically disturbed person for someone else. This portion does not click, simply sticks out and to make matters worse, it is quite long. But the climax works and the film does redeem itself quite well. For a small film, NPNET is competently made with absolutely no compromise. It has no romance.Hold on! It actually has no female character!!!

Bottomline:

An interesting small budget film that overcomes the financial limitations with a tight narrative. 

Rating: 3/5
