Review of Aneethi

Aneethi (2023)
5/10
Good Lead Performance, But A Mess Nonetheless!!
24 July 2023
There is no use or a great deal put by director Vasan Balan to understand the philosophy around mental health. The theme is explored in a mediocre or cliche driven ways by the filmmaker. I somehow managed to like the first half and it felt like it didn't matter which ephemeral side of 'good' or 'bad' but a grey line - the only method, only conclusion for Thiru (Arjun Das) here is depicted as a weapon of "justice' is explored and keeps things somehow going. But the 2nd half was so bad with usual templates, forced characters, stupid dialogues, run-around-the-mill flashback and disappointing climax. The film starts like a flashback and it comes in full circle in the ending.

Don't fall for my previous note, it was so funny that each characters leads to a series that provides moments of buffoonery viewing pleasure. The twist of the rich lady transferring the property to the maid was so disjointed and the rich vs poor issue lacked depth and so many things felt forced in the narrative. Only the lead Arjun Das is the saving grace and he owns this broken up mess of a film in the entire runtime.

I see he movie is rated 9 star ratings currently and there is no way the ratings are genuine. Please don't fall for the fake reviews regardless of the director previous outings.
