“35-Chinna Katha Kaadu” has potential with its thoughtful exploration of childhood fears, but its slow pacing and predictable storyline limit its effectiveness. Though the performances stand out, the movie struggles to hold the audience’s attention despite its genuine effort.
Verdict :
35-Chinna Katha Kaadu offers a raw and honest portrayal of the challenges children face in school. It successfully captures their anxieties, pressures, and even the cruelty they encounter, making it relatable to anyone familiar with the complexities of childhood. However, the film’s intentionally slow pace, while aiming to enhance realism, sometimes veers into dullness, making it difficult to sustain interest. The dialogue, although natural, can feel a bit lackluster, adding to the overall sense of monotony. Despite these flaws, the film’s dedication to realism and its thoughtful exploration of children’s hidden struggles make it worth watching. It serves as a reminder of the pressures we place on the younger generation and the importance of acknowledging their silent fears.
In several prolonged sequences, the film’s flow is disrupted, which hampers its overall impact.
