Movie Review-;
The film uses the time loop concept where Gautham gets stuck in the same day again and again. He knows that he is stuck in October 2 and every day he wakes up he is still wondering why it’s not October 3. Everyone around him thinks that it’s October 2 and it is the first time they are entering the day. So, there is a major mismatch bet ween what he knows and what others are doing around him. Strong performers, a captivating storyline, and the fundamental emotions must all be present in a picture with no fancy concept. A high-concept film like Jango re quires all of the elements to be intriguing to watch, yet the unexplored time loop perspective helps us engage us here and there, but not completely! Gautham (Satheesh Kumar) is a top neurosurgeon in the city, but his pers onal life is a mess, as he tries to win back the love of his estranged wife Nisha (Mrinalini Ravi), a media profess ional. Meanwhile, gautham becomes trapped in a time loop, reliving the same day over and over, and discovers that someone is attempting to murder his wife.
Is gautham going to find out who the culprit is? Is it possible for him to break free from the time loop? Will he re concile with his wife, above all? As previously stated, Jango’s main selling point is the sci-fi element, which draws us in, but director Mano Kartikeyan has not gotten the most out of his cast. Satheesh Kumar, who is making his acting debut, is merely okay and has a long way to go! Mrinalini ravi and Hareesh Peradi are good, but karun aka ran is outstanding.Initially, I thought the time-loop concept would be used to focus on the relationship between Gautham and Nisha because they are on a rift and this would be a way for Gautham to introduce a new facet of his love to Nisha and win her back. However, the director suddenly changes his mind. The film takes an investi gative thriller turn and someone is out to kill Nisha. Girls are going missing all over the place and someone is cr eating artificial hearts, which would not be a bad idea to give to the audience in case your natural heart is not pumping with adrenaline.
I agree that wasn’t the best of jokes but it is still better than the first few lines of this movie, I guarantee you that. While newbie director Mano Kartikeyan has nailed the subject, he fails to convey the emotions properly. We we re unable to empathise with the separated couple because there was no definite explanation for their separatio n. The picture would have been more effective if the filmmaker had focused more on the acting and intriguing wr iting, similar to producer CV Kumar’s previous sci-fi film Indru Netru Naalai, which dealt with time travel. And then there’s the artificial hearts and alien spaceships! Ghibran’s songs and background score stand out and hig hlight numerous scenes in the film. The cinematography of karthik K Thillai and the editing of San lokesh are bo th excellent for a time loop film. Like in most Tamil sci-fi films, except the rare Netru Indru Naalai, I wish the wr iting had been so much better. For example, there seems to be this alien spaceship hovering around Chennai. When it is attacked, I don’t know if there are any aliens inside.
It just stands there like somebody painted a graphic on it and there is absolutely no resistance. What is the point of an advanced civilization coming to earth, it is fired at and nothing happens! Post the interval, the decision to become an investigative thriller actually becomes a bit of a blessing as the pace of the film increases tremendo usly. It is interesting to see how Gautham is using his knowledge of the same day, same thing happening over and over again to put together clues in order to solve the mystery around who is out there to kill Nisha. The film be comes, not good, but at least not bad, because there is at least something we are invested in.My favourite bit of unintended humour involves the villain whose name I can’t give away. Until a certain point he takes out his gun and he keeps shooting people mercilessly. He kills Gautham and Nisha but nothing happens because tomorrow is going to be October 2 again, they are all going to wake up alive.
At least towards the end of the movie, it is expected that the time loop will end. That would mean, Gautham and Nisha will die at some point. For some reason, at that time, the villain abandons his gun and starts using his fists only for the hero to wake up and beat him up.This is something that I love from the James Bond movies. The villa in has to tie James Bond to a table in an extremely elaborate fashion and say – “I want you dead, Mr. Bond, but I will use this slow-moving laser that will slowly-slowly inch it’s way past the wood that the table is built on and slowly cut you into pieces.” I mean, if you want somebody dead, just shoot the guy!
