Doomtomylo a film so unique, intoxicating and bizarre that it not only demands another viewing, but is also forgivable as a satirical comedy where the jokes eventually take the back seat.
Sameer Callahan It really made me laugh, but for some moments I was tearing up because I could relate so much.
Taha Avalos The best films of this genre always show a path and provide a takeaway for being a better person.
Christopher Annino A very moving film.Very well thought out and was shot very well. They dynamic between both characters were very dynamic. It was a very deep and meaningful film. It had a fine blend of comedic timing while with a good balance of dramatic expression. It has a very surreal and expressionistic approach. A great reflection how sometimes relationships do not work out and in some ways time will heal it has a very philosophical approach that many including myself can relate to in regards to loss. A lot of visual metaphorical meaning through out the film. The story shows how a simple gesture might be hard to express in a relationship. Vijay Sethupathi character has impeccable comedic which transcends throughout the whole cast.
vijay kumar The actors vijay sethupathi, ramesh are good. But there is no in-depth story or dialogues. Such movies are supposed to tell about the characters as the movie goes on, but in here the movie keeps on moving but we cant learn anything important or interesting about the characters.Anbe sivam was a good movie whereas orange mittai is just a boring movie with good visuals.The railway gate scene, leaving the hospital bed scene, are good scenes in this film, but the film misses badly in terms of giving a wholesome experience.
Capt. Jacksparrow Vijay sethupathy is a talented actor, i liked his movies Soodhu kavum, naduvula konjam pakatha kanam and Idarkuthanae asaipattayai Balakumara was a piece of work. That Being said, i have no idea on what basis he does movies like this, maybe they think that audience will watch just for the cast. Recently the standard of Tamil movies have dropped below average and 2015 is a best year to prove that and this movie add yet another feather to hat of "Worst Movies of the year".Orange mittai is a total waste of time, there is nothing in the movie that cannot be made on a 10 min short film. There is literally no plot. The worst thing is the cast of the movie, totally didn't adapt with the movie and there is not much in the screenplay as well. The movies is about a day of short tempered egoistic sick old man trying pass his time. One thing is evident Vijay sethupathy wanted everyone to appreciate him for his performance, which i think is just fair.Verdict: If the message of the movie is "take care of your parents", there are much better short films for that. Or if the movie is all about Vijay sethupathy's performance, it sucks.Hope this guy realizes that the success of his movies are not just because of his performance but they are the result of a right mix of a strong plot and performance.
Bhanu Prakash Actor Vijay Sethupathi has never been afraid to experiment with unconventional roles and offbeat films. In "Orange Mittai" Vijay Sethupathi plays Kailasam, an arrogant, short-tempered 55-year-old, whose only source of entertainment in his boring life is his frequent trips to the hospital.Its bitter sweet story of a son looking for a father figure and a father looking for a son to love. Orange Mittai is directed by acclaimed director Biju Viswanath, whose works include award-winning films like Déjàvu and Marathon. The film appears more like a real-life incident. The most important aspect of this film is that,even though its speaks about estranged father son relationships ,the movie doesn't stoop of melodrama and usual emotional gimmicks in regular Tamil cinema. The film ends on the note that"journey is destination" which sums up the felling that you get while watching the movie. Feel good movie, definitely watchable.
