Irudhi Suttru Tamil Movie Review

Despite the sports backdrop, the film basically deals with the feelings and emotions of a young girl who falls for her much-older mentor.Director Sudha Kongara’s Irudhi Suttru may not be perfect. But, at just under two hours, its refreshing characters, enjoyable plot, great music and visuals keeps you hooked.

Sivakumar Vijayan and Satish Suriya have taken care of cinematography and editing departments in a manner which work well with the story. Narrated crisply under two hours, Sudha’s Irudhi Suttru has all the emotional elements in it to strike a chord with the audiences and the lady renders a match winning performance.

Every sportsman has a driving force that takes him to victory and for the reluctant Mathee it is her love for the older man which is convincingly told. The second half lags a bit which is easily forgiven when it leads to the riveting climax when we are enlightened about the feats of Indian Women Boxers. Verdict : A must watch for lovers of good cinema which engages and entertains through out.

Though the second half might make you feel as though the screenplay is rushed somewhat, the first half is an absolute delight. Climax provides the icing on the cake, which makes the blemish in the second half ignorable. Irudhi Suttru is fun and emotional (sans over the top scenes). It is riveting and also manages to take a dig at women’s boxing in India.
