Cinematography

“Vasco Da Gama” is a fantasy comedy Tamil movie directed and written by RG Krishnan. Produced by DATO' B. Subaskaran under the production banner of 5656 Production, it features Nakkhul, K. S. Ravikumar, Vamsi Krishna, and Arthana Binu as main actors and Anandaraj, and Munishkanth playing minor roles.

The film takes place in a world with reversed morality, good is rewarded with punishment, and crime gets a reward. “Vasudevan”, a simple good man, tries to cope in this peculiar world. Vasu is rejected for housing and minimum rights due to his good nature after the untimely death of his brother at the hands of an unjust hospital. He has no other option left and finds himself in “Vasco Da Gama”, a jail that operates more like a pampered paradise for offenders.

Within the prison walls, Vasu is reunited with his love interest and meets a cast of zany inmates. Navigating this topsy-turvy world, he has to contend with absurd challenges, calling into question the very notion of morality in an environment where deception is paramount. As he tries to adapt, Vasu realizes that he must then combat the absurdity that surrounds him.

“Vasco Da Gama” has a good concept, but its execution is lacking. The film relies too much on slapstick comedy and extraneous scenes, which do not work together. Nakkhul performs sincerely, but the rest of the cast is underutilized. The comedy is often off-key, with cringe-worthy gags and jarring background score overwhelming the plot. The over-the-top approach of the film turns its intriguing premise into a confusing mess rather than an intriguing satire. Lastly, “Vasco Da Gama” fails to capitalize on its intriguing idea and leaves audiences disappointed.
