Thanks
to
the
team's
bold
attempt
and
unique
promotion
strategies,
Siddharth's
Jil
Jung
Juk
had
aroused
the
curiosity
of
movie
lovers
prior
to
its
release.
Now
that
the
film
has
swooped
its
way
into
cinema
halls,
check
out
what
the
flick
has
to
offer
by
reading
our
movie
review.
Jil
Jung
Juk
Plot:
Set
in
2020,
Jil
Jung
Juk
is
about
three
characters
who
are
assigned
the
task
of
delivering
a
truckload
of
cocaine
to
a
Chinese
gang
by
the
most
dreaded
mafioso,
played
by
Amarendran.
The
rest
of
the
film
revolves
around
their
journey
and
the
trouble
they
get
into
while
engaged
in
their
mission.
How
do
they
free
themselves
from
all
the
difficult
situations
this
journey
throws
at
them
and
what
happens
to
their
assignment
forms
the
crux
of
Jil
Jung
Juk.
Performances:
Siddharth's
decision
of
taking
up
this
experimental
flick
is
commendable.
His
expressions
and
body
language
is
sure
to
make
you
laugh.
Avinash
Raghudevan,
who
had
impressed
one
and
all
in
Demonte
Colony,
comes
up
with
yet
another
praiseworthy
performance.
Of
the
three
lead
actors,
Sananth
Reddy's
performance
comes
across
as
a
downer
at
places,
especially
when
his
buffoonery
like
expressions,
after
a
certain
point
of
time,
begin
to
irritate
the
audience
instead
of
evoking
laughter.
Actors
like
Radharavi
and
Amarendran
have
portrayed
their
respective
roles
effectively.
Nassar,
RJ
Balaji
and
Bhagavathi
Perumal
manage
to
impress
through
their
short
lived
characters.
Technicalities:
The
biggest
strength
of
this
movie
is
its
background
score.
Having
impressed
music
lovers
with
his
'Shoot
the
Kuruvi'
and
'Domer-U
Lord-U'
music
director
Vishal
Chandrashekhar
comes
up
with
a
delightful
BGM.
Though
the
cuts
in
Jil
Jung
Juk
were
sharp,
editor
Kurtz
Schneider
could've
sliced
off
the
length
of
the
film,
for
it
appears
stretched
at
places,
hindering
the
overall
pace.
Cinematographer
Shreyaas
Krishna
has
done
a
brilliant
job
by
staying
true
to
the
uniqueness
of
the
film.
Thanks
to
the
usage
of
eccentric
colours,
Jil
Jung
Juk
looks
wacky,
which
works
in
favour
of
the
movie.
The
movie
could've
been
much
better
had
the
director
Deeraj
Vaidy
concentrated
more
on
the
dialogues.
A
movie
of
this
genre
works
only
if
the
dialogues
manage
to
fascinate
you
right
throughout,
which
is
unfortunately
not
the
case
here.
Overall
Views:
Jil
Jung
Juk
provides
a
new
experience
for
Tamil
moviegoers,
which
makes
the
flick
watchable.
However,
it
could've
been
much
better
with
better
dialogues
and
a
compressed
run
time.
