Sketch,
starring
Chiyaan
Vikram
in
the
lead
role,
is
making
a
big
release
in
the
theatres
today
(January
12,
2018).
The
film,
directed
by
young
film-maker
Vijay
Chandar
is
high
on
expectations
and
the
film
is
touted
to
be
an
action
entertainer
with
a
strong
storyline.
Plot
The
story
of
Sketch
is
set
against
the
backdrop
of
North
Chennai,
which
is
also
known
as
Vada
Chennai.
Sketch,
whose
real
name
is
Jeeva,
works
under
a
financier
named
Sett.
Sketch's
main
job
is
to
seize
the
vehicles
of
all
those
who
don't
pay
back
the
money
on
time.
One
day,
he
is
assigned
with
a
similar
task,
but
it
leads
to
a
bit
of
troubles.
Let's
see
how
the
cast
&
crew
members
of
Sketch
have
fared
for
the
movie..
Vikram
As
Sketch
Well,
it
has
to
be
said
that
Vikram
is
the
life
of
this
movie.
It
is
a
sheer
pleasure
to
watch
him
pull
off
those
mass
sequences
with
utmost
ease.
The
subtle
variations
that
he
has
brought
in
while
delivering
the
dialogues
is
also
noteworthy.
The
style
quotient
of
the
actor
is
unmatchable
and
the
effort
that
he
is
put
in
for
the
action
sequences
is
quite
evident.
He,
with
his
performance,
assures
that
his
fans
won't
be
left
disappointed.
Tamannaah
As
Amuthavalli
Well,
Tamannaah's
role
isn't
anything
new
as
she
gets
to
play
a
character,
which
is
similar
to
many
other
characters
that
we
have
seen
in
the
past.
Her
screen
space
is
limited
and
her
role
hasn't
been
developed
in
a
proper
manner.
Rest
Of
The
Cast
Baburaj
plays
the
role
of
the
main
antagonist
and
he
has
done
a
good
job
by
presenting
a
villain
with
a
different
style.
Sriman
gets
to
play
a
meaty
role
and
he
pulls
it
off
with
ease.
Hareesh
Peradi
as
Seth
is
impressive.
Similar
is
the
case
of
RK
Suresh.
Soori
does
evoke
a
few
laughters.
Script
&
Direction
-
Vijay
Chandar
Vijay
Chandar
has
done
a
decent
job
in
sketching
out
a
plot,
which
has
all
elements
in
the
right
proportions
for
a
template
action
entertainer,
with
mass
elements.
The
writer
in
him
has
also
added
the
suspense
factor
and
the
progression
of
the
film
is
also
in
a
proper
manner.
Nevertheless,
he
could
have
definitely
left
off
some
cliched
sequences,
especially
in
the
romantic
portions.
The
film-maker
in
him
has
done
a
decent
job
by
packaging
an
entertainer.
He
takes
his
own
time
to
set
up
things
in
the
first
half,
which
have
backfired
a
bit.
But
still,
the
way
in
which
he
has
planted
those
twists
and
mass
sequences,
deserves
due
credits.
At
the
same
time,
one
will
be
left
disappointed
with
the
placements
of
the
songs,
which
affects
the
pace
of
the
movie.
Music
&
BGM
–
S
Thaman
Most
of
the
songs
are
good
to
hear,
even
though
majority
of
them
have
been
misplaced.
The
BGM
by
Thaman
is
one
of
the
high
points
of
the
film.
It
helps
the
film
to
build
the
tempo,
in
many
sequences.
The
cinematography
of
Sketch
is
by
M
Sukumar
and
he
has
done
a
good
job
by
capturing
visuals
that
suit
the
tone
of
the
film.
Ruben
has
done
an
OK
job
in
the
editing
department
of
the
movie.
Overall
View
Well,
Sketch
is
one
such
kind
of
a
film,
which
serves
the
needs
of
a
mass
entertainer.
It
follows
all
the
templates
of
a
usual
mass
entertainers,
which
is
indeed
a
positive
for
the
followers
of
this
genre.
As
mentioned,
the
film
has
a
decent
storyline
and
it
takes
its
own
time
to
get
to
the
main
plot.
The
first
half
of
the
film
is
filled
with
some
well-choreographed
action
sequences
and
mass
moments,
which
are
sure
to
keep
you
entertained.
In
fact,
it
is
in
the
second
half
that
the
film
enters
the
core
plot,
with
a
suspense
element
lingering
out
there,
which
works
out
pretty
well,
right
till
the
end.
At
the
same
time,
the
romantic
portions
of
the
film
fall
flat
and
thus
leaving
the
audiences,
bored
at
portions.
Above
all,
Sketch
rides
high
on
Vikram's
shoulders,
with
the
actor
in
full
form.
His
screen
presence
and
effortless
act
do
take
the
film
to
a
higher
level.
Verdict
Sketch
is
a
usual
mass-action
entertainer
which
has
its
own
share
of
highs
and
lows.
The
film,
which
has
Vikram
in
top
form
is
definitely
a
decent
affair,
which
will
satisfy
all
those
who
would
love
to
have
a
gala
time
in
the
theatres.
