Miss You Movie Review
December 13, 2024
Miss You is a 2024 Tamil language romantic comedy film written and directed by N.Rajasekar. The film is dubbed into Telugu and has the same title. It has Siddharth & Ashika Ranganath playing the lead roles while Karunakaran, Balasaravanan, Maaran, Sastika Rajendran, Sarath Lohithaswa, Jeyaprakash, Anupama, Ponvannan, Naren, & others are seen in important supporting roles. The music is composed by Ghibran while the film is produced by Samuel Mathew under 7 Miles Per Second banner.
Story:
Vasu (Siddharth) is an aspiring film director. But after a fatal accident, he loses memory of the final two years of his life. After getting back on his feet, he befriends Bobby (Karunakaran) at the train station and comes to Bangalore. There he encounters a strong and opinionated Subbalakshmi (Ashika Ranganath) and falls in love with her. Vasu immediately tells her his feelings but he is turned down. Later he gets to know that he had a past with Subbalakshmi before his accident. What is his past? How will he win her love? It needs to be seen in the film.
What about on-screen performances?
Siddharth exudes charm and delivers a composed performance. He fits aptly into the shoes of an aspiring filmmaker named Vasu and these kinds of roles are a cakewalk for him.
Ashika Ranganath impresses with her screen presence and carries her role with grace and adequate expressions. She gets to do two contrasting shades in the film and she passes with flying colours.
Karunakaran is good in parts as the friend who crosses parts with the hero at the railway station.
Lollu Sabha star Maaran is fine with his one-liners at a few places but the rest of the friend’s gang including Balasaravanan & Sastika Rajendran are just about fine.
Sharath Lohithaswa is wasted in the typical role of an influential politician who issues constant threats to the hero. Jeyaprakash, Anupama, Ponvannan, Naren, & others are okay in their limited portions.
What about off-screen talents?
The story by N.Rajasekar lacks novelty and is not so interesting. The movie follows a formulaic plot which we have seen in a few films in the past like the recent Nani starrer ‘Hi Nanna’ where the lead character loses memory and gets to meet the same person in the past again. The screenplay by N.Rajasekar & R.Ashok is lethargic and is filled with cliched scenes.
The way the hero befriends a stranger in a railway station and the whole track with the friends’ gang are good examples of this. The biggest minus of the film is the lack of a strong conflict point. The tussle between the two lead characters is not properly portrayed and told through the scenes.
We are told that the lead character’s ambition is to become a filmmaker, but this aspect is hardly explored in the movie. Adding to this, the film has a number of badly choreographed songs that detract from the overall atmosphere. If one or two of these songs—which don’t further the plot—had been cut, the movie may have been better.
Also, the fight scenes do not offer an adrenaline rush and come across as a forced addition to satisfy the commercial requirements. Director N.Rajasekar does a below-par job with his craft as his presentation and narrative style look completely outdated.
He could not maintain a basic emotional connect with the characters through his narration and with the writing. More focus on the screenplay, character designs and emotions could’ve made this a decent rom-com.
The Telugu dialogues are fine and the Telugu dubbing is done well for the lead roles but it is pretty underwhelming for the other supporting artists.
The songs by Ghibran in Telugu especially are too bad. The tunes and the lyrics never worked well as the dubbing work was not up to the mark.
His background score is good in parts. The camera work by K.G.Venkatesh is neat while the edit by Dinesh Ponraj is very ordinary. The production values of 7 Miles Per Second are adequate.
The production values of 7 Miles Per Second are adequate.
What’s Hot?
* Siddharth’s Performance
* Ashika Ranganath’s Performance
* Bus Scene & After Marriage Portions
* Cinematography & Production Values
What’s Not?
* Uninteresting Plot & Dull Screenplay
* Outdated Presentation & Weak Conflict Points
* Terrible Songs In Telugu
* Poor Dance Choreography
* Weak Emotional Connect Between Lead Pair
* Too Many Cliched & Filler Scenes
* Unnecesary & Routine Fight Scenes
* Hero Friend’s Characterizations
Verdict:
On the whole, Miss You is an outdated romantic comedy that never has the freshness that was needed for this genre. Apart from a few light-hearted scenes here & there, the film fails to keep us entertained in the theatres and the lack of basic promotion makes it even worse for people to go to the cinema halls.
