Quirky, New Age and Mostly Entertaining

Newcomer Deeraj Vaidy shows a lot of promise. The comedy, whenever it works is top notch. A lot of small but extremely innovative and interesting ideas are employed throughout. The self worshipping inspector speaking chaste Tamil is one such. (more)

A Wickedly Entertaining dark comedy

The dark comedy genre is something that several directors in the new millennium have attempted in Tamil cinema, but were only able to dish out films that one can perhaps call twilight comedies. Young Dheeraj Vaidya has done a Guy Ritchie in �Jil Jung Juk� presenting Tamil cinema�s first real dark comedy.(more)

Though more of Jung and a little of Jil, still a praiseworthy attempt!

JJJ is wacky, weird and outlandish. The idiosyncratic nature of the film gets to be the major advantage but it also detaches the viewer from the regular movie watching experience. The factor in the comedy might disturb the viewers, but the director�s spearheading effort with the dialogues deserves major applause.(more)

Not funny at all

Just like any other dark comedies in Tamil cinema (most of them are inspired by Guy Ritchie flicks), here too each and every character has got interesting back stories and to be honest, they initially create good impression but over indulgence and repetitive gags spoils the show.(more)

An Eccentric 'Jung'le-like Ride!

The movie could've been much better had the director Deeraj Vaidy concentrated more on the dialogues. A movie of this genre works only if the dialogues manage to fascinate you right throughout, which is unfortunately not the case here. (more)

A black comedy that does not quite fly

Deeraj Vaidy�s Jil Jung Juck (named after three characters in the film) has a striking resemblance to Hong Kong director Wong Kar-wai�s colour palate, especially his In The Mood For Love, and Quentin Tarantino�s black humour. Only that Vaidy does not turn these dark episodes in his work scary enough to send shivers down one�s spine. Or sadistic like Tarantino. Well, Vaidy perhaps wanted to keep Jil Jung Juck comic.(more)
