After
the
critically
acclaimed
Cuckoo,
journalist-turned-director
Raju
Murugan
is
back
with
his
latest
show
Joker,
a
political
satire.
Continue
reading
our
movie
review
to
know
what
this
film
has
to
offer.
Joker
has
Guru
Somasundaram,
Ramya
Pandian
and
Gayathri
krishna
playing
important
roles.
The
film
is
bankrolled
by
SR
Prakashbabu
and
SR
Prabhu
under
the
banner
Dream
Warrior
Pictures.
Joker
Plot:
Guru
Somasundaram
gives
a
tough
time
to
all
government
employees
with
his
bizarre
protests
against
the
lacklustre
system
our
country
has.
Our
political
system
may
have
many
flaws
but
in
the
contemporary,
realistic
world,
can
a
common
man
bring
about
a
change
in
the
society?
Also,
what
makes
Somasundaram
protest
against
corrupt
officials
and
politicians?
The
answer
lies
inside
the
cinema
hall
playing
Joker.
Performances:
Guru
Somasundaram
of
Aaranya
Kaandam
and
Jigarthanda
fame
has
come
up
with
his
best
performance.
Ramya
Pandian
bags
a
meaty
role
and
has
delivered
the
goods.
Gayathri
krishna
and
other
supporting
actors
have
done
what
is
required,
which
makes
the
whole
drama
quite
realistic.
Technicalities:
While
the
first
half
keeps
you
guessing
the
reason
behind
the
protagonist's
weird
antics,
the
second
half
justifies
his
actions.
Dialogues
penned
by
Raju
Murugan
are
razor-sharp
and
makes
you
ponder
over
the
system
that
we
have
set
up
for
ourselves
to
live
in.
Music
by
Sean
Roldan
goes
along
beautifully
with
the
film
and
plays
an
important
part
in
conveying
the
desired
message.
Overall
View:
Joker
is
a
well-written
film
which
conveys
the
importance
of
a
good
political
system
with
a
dash
of
humour.
