But the director used the 'fetal alcoholic syndrome' for namesake and doesn't dig much into it. The characterization of the protagonist and his medical condition have the potential to make this a refreshing film from the stereotypes. The producer has spent a lot to make it visually appealing. Cinematographer has put in his efforts to make the film look colorful in every frame. Music by Anup Rubens is loud and unappealing. His direction is stuck in the nineties and his poor writing skills have been exposed big time. There is a lot of desperation to create comedy that backfired most of the times. Sekhar Reddy Yerra picked up an interesting point like 'FAS', but has written a formulaic screenplay for it. Roll Rida tests your patience with his expressionless face and overacting. Ravi Kishan also had to act like a clown. Rao Ramesh looks cartoonish in a role that doesn't do justice to his talent. He is trying to woo mass audience with the so-called punch dialogues. Kartikeya has improved his dancing skills, but still has a long way to go in acting department. Devadas couldn't hide his weakness, which eventually results in a breakup. He falls in love with Suvasana (Neha) who comes from a teetotaler family. He needs to have alcohol in specified doses everyday or else he will die. He played the role of an authorized drinker in his latest film 90ML that talks about 'fetal alcoholic syndrome'.ĭevadas (Kartikeya) is born with a condition called 'fetal alcoholic syndrome'. He couldn't find another success post that film. While the trailer showcased 90 ML as an adult-only film, the director has tried to convey a lot of issues like alcoholism and drug culture that exists in today’s society.Kartikeya has been struggling to find stories that appeal to youth like his RX 100 did. The crisp runtime of 124 minutes is another advantage of the film. Aravind Krishna’s camera has beautifully captured the nightlife of Chennai in style and songs have been presented on par with western stylish music videos. Especially, the ‘Marana Matta’ and ‘ Friendi da’ tracks. STR’s music is the film is a big plus, as the songs and background score are noteworthy. While the first half of the film is watchable, the second half tests our patience with the screenplay and endless stretches. What works for Oviya is that her character stays true to her off-screen image which was established through Bigg Boss show.
The other two girls Monisha Ram and Masoon Shankar are just adequate. In fact, Bommu Lakshmi and Shree Gopika has overshadowed Oviya in many scenes. Interestingly, all five girls have performed well. But now despite handling a relevant topic, it’s hard to connect with these girls or empathize with their condition when the director seems to be putting all her effort to distract you with their antics in the name of feminism! After a point, we forget the personal problems of all the five characters and starts seeing them as a bunch of addicts who shows the victim card to be in the fun zone. The film would have been an excellent feel-good drama if director Anita Udeep had addressed the issues of her female characters without glorifying drugs and alcohol. We also have Sukanya (Monisha Ram) who falls in love with another girl but the society and parents are against their wedding. For the middle-aged Kajal (Masoom Shankar), her husband has an extra-marital affair after the couple cannot spend much time in bed due to their daughter(!!) Then there is Paaru (Shree Gopika ) whose husband cannot forget his past love and hence, they find it hard to start a family. For Thamarai, (Bommu Lakshmi) her rogue husband and his dangerous henchman job is a big headache. The film is all about how Rita changes the lives of five women who have their own challenges in life. Rita (Oviya) enjoys her life to the fullest, she has a live-in partner and moves on to a new apartment.

90ml movie plot crack#
The young girls in the film also crack double meaning jokes which are partly funny, mostly crass. But the director often gets muddled, as she confuses feminism by glorifying boozing and smoking. Director Anita Udeep's 90 ML talks about feminism, liberation, and sexual issues of modern women.
Tamil cinema seldom makes films about unapologetically amoral characters.
