Although
Prabhu Solomon’s earnest
attempt at making a spooky thriller
is evident, the predictable
plot and screenplay prove to
be a let down. And club with
it some uninspiring dialogues
and a girl, whose sole purpose
of existence in the movie is
to flaunt her assets, the movie
gets nowhere. Really!
Laadam is the story of a young
man who accidentally stumbles
upon a gang war and finds himself
in a life-threatening situation
between the two gangs that are

against
each other and the poor guy’s life.
The movie revolves around his attempts to
save his life from the burly gangsters.
The whole movie is, thus, a hide-and-seek
affair, only parts of it really hold on
to your attention. The pre-interval session
of the movie lets your expectations mount,
but the predictable fare lets it fizzle
out the same way in the post-interval session.
And the rest of it is largely passé
that puts your power of endurance to test.
Aravindan plays the guy who entangles himself
in the web of criminals accidentally. And
that’s pretty much that could be said
about him. The lovely looking Charmee establishes
that she could be quite annoying at times.
She meddles with the movie’s flow
most of the times with her mono-acting.
And since her character is not properly
developed, her whole existence in the movie
seems like an excuse for skin show. That
said, no characters in the movie seems to
have been developed the way it should have
been for a thriller.
The thriller feel of the movie is, however,
retained, thanks to the blue tint frames.
Tharan’s music fails to impress either.
A word for Prabhu Solomon: Television audiences
are a world apart from the cinema-goers.
Verdict: Give it a miss!
