Good Fantasy Drama for Kids. Style of the film close to the real life that should connect with all the kids. Ashwanth rocked on his acting both in comedy as well as in emotional scenes. Liked to see the New dimension of Prabhu Deva Sir, where he shined well as Boodham by doing fun and exhibiting emotions. Other artists did their job well. D. Imman Music gave support to the film. 'Master Oh my Master' good dance number.
1st Half - Slow paced with good laughable comedy tracks.
2nd Half - Emotional, Motivational, Message full Cinematography, Sound Effects and Editing are fine. VFX worked out well at some places and disappointed at some places. Film should come even better, if they have written even more interesting scenes and comedy tracks. Claps for entire team.
Good Family Entertainer. Surely, Kids must enjoy the film by watching it in theaters.

The story , the screenplay and visuals are stunning. This was one of the movie that can have some young audience & will thoroughly enjoy. The plot may have some loopholes , however the theme is right on . We need more such movies that have a strong social message along with some fun story.
Ashwanth has done an amazing job at his character, Prabhu deva fits perfect into his role with the dance moves it is a nice combination.
This movie is at the league of 'my dear kuttichatan' and we need more such movies. Karki, kinkiniya & Thiru make the kids cry & laugh. Sometimes we just rely on the TV shows & YouTube for the kids and it's a bad thing.

Well made but with logical mistakes. But really a good entertainer for kids.
Adults should not bother watching this and rating this. It's far better than many other movies. Prabhu deva has done well.
Watchable for kids for sure. Such movies are required rather than other false entertainments in you tube and other sources. This gives a positive impact for sure for the kids to watch and be entertained.

Boy's acting was great,my son started crying at the climax. No spoilers, please stammering is not a physical condition, but a mental condition, basically fear. Do not get cheated if somebody tells, stammering can be cured by surgery. How to people treat a kid with these difficulties. Songs are good. Comedy is also good. Kids will enjoy this. I started with no confidence on the movie, but it turned out really really very good. Computer graphics could be done better. No role for Remya Nambisan. Prabhu deva' s expressions were good. This movie can be watched once. It can be watched with the family. Over all good family movie.
Fantasy movies are stress busters, and with all that glitter, they are a treat for the eyes. When I stumbled upon the poster with the genie at the center, I was in the mood to watch such a movie.
A kid faces a series of problems in life due to his stammering issues, and then lady luck smiles on him. He accidentally finds the king of all genies, Karkimuki, to help with his problems. The bond they create and what the genie wants in return is what the story is all about.
The story is meant for kids but is treated in such a way that even adults would enjoy it. It also touches upon parenting and the role of a teacher in a student's life. This is a good angle to explore in such movies, but it needs to be done subtly. That is where it goes wrong, especially with the teacher angle being too unrealistic and preachy. That's a minor glitch; otherwise, it is a fun movie where the genie does many fun things for kids.
Prabhu Deva as the genie is endearing, and you can't help but fall in love with him. Shakthi Ritvik does a decent job and plays the character with a speech issue to a great extent. However, he could have been replaced with any other child artist who might have done better. Ramya Nambeeshan is fine in her limited role.
The costume and makeup of the genie are done quite well, adding great value to the film. The VFX or CGI is of prime importance in these movies, but maybe due to a stringent budget, the work is highly shabby and can't be ignored. Even a person with limited knowledge can understand that what is shown on screen is fake. The fun song sequence featuring Prabhu Deva and Shakthi is pleasing to watch.
It could have been way better as the climax too is highly indigestible. It looks rushed and unnecessarily adds an emotional angle to the story. It turns out to be a merely average movie, but it would be fine to watch with a kid, as they may enjoy it. #pranureviews #MyDearBootham #MyDearBoothamReview.
