Methagu - my View (not a review)

 Movie Name: Methagu

Language: Tamil

OTT: BS Live

My View:

A very honest and good biopic movie on the early life of  the revolutionary leader Velupillai Prabhakaran. The movie showcases the events focused between 1954 and 1975 in the life of Prabhakaran and eagerly expecting for the second part. 

The makers of the movie have put in a sincere effort with the the given budget and resource and though certain locations didn't bring back the authenticity, credit must be given to their efforts. Kudos to the makes for factually maintaining the event and characters authenticity and and brave enough to make use of the original names and the events which happened during the couple of decades.

In spite of being a low budget movie, credit goes to the direction, music, cinematography and the actors. Overall, a very good movie which takes its own pace in establishing the story and staying true to it. Hoping for a second part of the movie. 

I had a chance to pause and learn more on Google events depicted in the movie, be it the 4th World Tamil Research Conference or the names the Mayors/Politicians/Cops and it was 

I would go with 90/100 as this is a subject that interests me for learning. May be certain locations didn't give the actual feel of the story happening in Sri Lanka, but nevertheless given the budget and wonderful effort by the team, this shouldn't be an issue for the movie lovers who have interest in the subject.
