Another investigation thriller in the crown of Kollywood

A successful movie can create a new identity to the team involved in making. As Director Arivazhagan is already addressed as director of Eeram, after this movie, he can definitely be addressed as director of Kuttram 23. This credit goes to the protagonist Arun Vijay as well.

Kollywood has established a new benchmark in investigation thriller after the success of movies like Thani Oruvan to recent Dhuruvangal Pathinaaru. Precisely, Kuttram 23 have met those standards with a riveting plot and a befitting social message.

The movie has followed a simple art of story telling with a linear screen-play. But this does not mean that you can sit reclined in your seat.

The action sequences especially are well made and looks realistic. Unlike majority of thriller movies, this movie looks more colorful and grand in visual.

Fortunately, every other factors falls into place for this movie. Please don't search for shortcoming(there isn't any in my opinion), as this kind of movies are meant to be watched by audience of all categories.
