This is a coming of age storyline that you've seen in one form or another for decades. It takes a truly unique voice to make yet another one worth watching.
The acting in this movie is really good.
Although I seem to have had higher expectations than I thought, the movie is super entertaining.
Like the great film, it's made with a great deal of visible affection both in front of and behind the camera.
once i was studying 10th standard, this movie was released when my half yearly exam was going on in a full swing. it was the movie posters and title itched me to watch this movie. when the posters revealed that this movie is set in 90's i waited for its release. i had my exam in the afternoon but i watched this movie in the morning and went for the exam in the evening. everyone thought its another commercial tamil movie set in the backdrops of madurai city. but for everyone's surprise it made a huge impact in tamil movie industry. i would say its a must watchable tamil movie. subramaniapuram, the name, by itself shows its not an ordinary tamil masala movie. five uneducated men enjoying their life by doing odd jobs in 1980. the director brought the backdrops of 90's to his perfection. it was sasikumar's debut film but if you have watched the movie , you won't say its by a debutant. then i have to tell u about the music director james vasanthan. he, normally not approached by any director to do a movie but he is the music teacher of director sasikumar in his school days and so the director roped him in this movie. he gave the movie a great strength by giving songs that suits the 90's. moreover i wrote this to say that its one of the movie that you must watch if you are a movie lover like me.
