Sweetheart 2025 Movie Review
The story centers on Vasu’s struggle with his past—marked by parental neglect—and his fear of fatherhood, contrasted with Manu’s desire to keep the child. It touches on modern relationship dynamics and sensitive topics like premarital pregnancy, attempting a progressive stance. However, the narrative often feels cliched, leaning on overused tropes like childhood trauma to explain Vasu’s hesitancy.
Rio Raj delivers a mixed bag—effective in emotional scenes but less convincing in comedic moments. Gopika Ramesh shines with warmth, despite her character’s inconsistent motivations. Supporting actors like Renji Panicker add some depth, but others, like Redin Kingsley, feel underutilized or out of place with forced humor.
Sukumar’s debut shows ambition but lacks polish. The nonlinear storytelling, with frequent flashbacks, feels unnecessary and drags the pacing. Comedy often falls flat, with gags like repetitive phone bits or a bizarre child spy subplot clashing with the drama. The film’s 144-minute runtime feels bloated, with redundant scenes that dilute its emotional core.
