‘Doctor’ movie review: An enjoyable comedy-caper that has Sivakarthikeyan playing down his strengths
The HinduOctober 09, 2021 02:28 pm | Updated 02:33 pm IST Let me make a confession first: I had great fun watching the BTS videos that the team of Doctor put up. Doctor Cast: Sivakarthikeyan, Vinay, Priyanka Arul Mohan, Yogi Babu Director: Nelson Storyline: A doctor urges a family who has lost a loved one to take things in their own hands The biggest USP of the film is that it isn’t about Doctor himself; Sivakarthikeyan, in this case. However, much like the Professor from popular series Money Heist, Sivakarthikeyan stays in the background while trying to galvanise a family to do something that is normally the police department’s job. Also refreshing is watching Unnale Unnale Vinay play a character with shades of grey; it isn’t much to write home about, but boy, Vinay does still look fit and fine. Anirudh’s music and background score are major highlights of Doctor ; the use of a Carnatic melodic phrase to a slow-motion fight sequence surprisingly fits, as does the foot-tapping ‘Chellamma’ song.
