Youth Movie X Reviews
Directed by and starring Ken Karunas in the lead role of Praveen, the romantic comedy follows the story of a 15-year-old schoolboy who wishes to find true love before he finishes school.
The film performed exceptionally well at the box office as it collected more than Rs 82 crore in terms of worldwide gross collection. With the digital debut of Youth, the internet is back at what it does best: discussing.
Here are a few X user reviews for the Tamil film Youth.
A user gives a proper breakdown of the film as they wrote, "#Youth Is A Tamil Feel-Good Romantic Drama. That Explores Young Love, Relationships And Life Choices. The Film Keeps A Simple And Relatable Narrative. #KenKarunaas Makes A Decent Debut As A Lead. He Delivers A Natural And Honest Performance. Especially In Emotional Moments."
"Watched Ken Karunas's Youth! The foolishness of youth and the beauty of realizing what's important and growing from it are spot-on. Ken is the actor who played the role of Mutt in Dhanush's Vaathi. In that work too, he was an actor who left an incredibly strong impression, but his talent is amazing," wrote another user.
Another user gave a positive take and said, "Watched YOUTH movie @netflix. Superb fun movie Es specially comedy and college scenes are excellent. Watch it and Enjoy. Available in Telugu also."
"I'm feeling so much regret that I couldn't watch the movie #Youth in the theater with my friends... just now watched the movie on Netflix. It's superb, man! Those college days, the love stories, the canteen fights, and those days where we had those cute moments at home along with getting scolded by parents—it's very well made, sir @KenKarunaas," shared a user on X.
Another user commented, "#Youth streaming on NETFLIX A good entertaining watch mainly it connect with youths A @KenKarunaas vibe."
A user gave the film 3 stars and wrote, " A laughing riot. My cheeks are still hurting 2nd half was decent but 1st half was just outstanding. Crazy interval bang Writing, casting, performances & editing. Everything was perfect till it abruptly shifted the genre from comedy to emotional drama in the pre-climax."
