Kattiera Nana I think this is a new genre that they're all sort of working their way through it and haven't got all the kinks worked out yet but it's a genre that works for me.

Bardlerx Strictly average movie

Hadrina The movie's neither hopeful in contrived ways, nor hopeless in different contrived ways. Somehow it manages to be wonderful

Cheryl A clunky actioner with a handful of cool moments.

santhosh-10290 The movie was not good. Songs and BGM in the movie was superb. But there is no interesting part in the movie. The movie was very boring. The fight scenes in the movie was good.

stylegamer First of all, as a reviewer , i am from the Minnale generation and everyone knows what a huge hit that movies was back in 2001 which propelled gautham menon to the list of A list directors. Over the years Menon has went on to do multiple stories each with its own distinct plot but driven by his classic crime - love plots after the success of his second film "Khakka Khakka" while introducing new plot driven presentations for each subsequent movie. You find yourself in an action film complete with corrupt cops and cold-blooded killers. The action which is plot driven rather than stunt driven is intense enough, with a series of close call events betrayal and other action genre elements. In some levels the movie reminds one of Menon's "Khakka Khakka" and "Vinnai thandi varuvaya" movies. The female lead Manjima Mohan is surprisingly good for her debut performance with her Reema Sen like acting style and by far the best of all female leads in Menon's movies However the strongest aspect of the movie which is plot driven scenes does not come without flaws. At times logic takes a backseat with obviously glaring plot holes. The villains had always been at the forefront in all Gautham movies , however in this one they seem to lack the finesse of Pandiya character from Khakka Khakka or Amudhan from Vettaiyaadu Vilaiyaadu. However this can be justified as the villain is from north India and exhibits characteristics different from Tamil villains and this is not a full fledged crime themed movie like "Khakka Khakka". Daniel Balaji who played the main villain in Vettaiyaadu Vilaiyaadu plays a minor villain role. It will have been better if he had a full fledged role. The performance of Simbu, as usual the happy go lucky hero persona, at times seem to be inconsistent especially in the second half but the action plot will quickly distract the viewer from any fault finding.Unlike the director's earlier movies , the romance - crime integration flows in a straight plot rather than alternating between flashbacks as in his earlier movies. As usual the finesse of AR Rahman's music can be seen here both int he songs and background tracks and he has taken the gautham - menon combo to a new level while retaining the usual feel of their earlier musical collaboration.Although the film brings nothing new in terms of story other than the usual run of the mill stuff seen in other Tamil movies like "Arima Nambi or Thadayara Thakka , the simple plot driven execution and nuances of romance incorporated into the action scenes is somewhat better done than in other movies and carries the classic Gautham Menon touches. However one cant help having the nostalgic feeling and a story or plot that looks and feels like the early 2000s menon movie. Overall watchable for the thrills , music and plot.

nragul It has been a long wait ever since the release of single song "Thalli pogathey", ironically, the movie release took a long time.But its worth the wait. A typical GVM start to the movie with mature parents, loving sister and a gorgeous heroine to fall in love for - Manjima MohanA special mention for that fabulous bike song - Showkali, most of the guys would have booked a Royal Enfield as soon as they got out of the movie. Such was the presentation and passion expressed. With romance and song filling the first half, the movie turns into a thriller with some strange situations encompassing a common man.A colorful first half followed by a contrasting dark second half.The thrill element was presented beautifully as you will never know what is going to come next. Unlike usual GVM movies, this movie has got some logical setbacks in the name of "commercial" element. This might give out some mixed reactions. Nonetheless, the movie overall will be a good watch.Verdict: Go for it...

binnyraj After a long wait ,I was so excited to watch this film in theater. I was so confident GVM would give a real Bang.But all was shattered. First AR.Rahman...This man is a Life saver for any producer or director. He has saved 70% of the movie. Camera and the complete technicians have done their role perfectly. The only problem was the script and execution which obviously the Director plays.When all the movie lovers hated Nadunisi Naigal ...I enjoyed the movie's execution and so many new experiments which was attempted by GVM. I do not want to pull out the reasons why I felt so bad about the movie because each individual has their own interpretation of what the movie is all about. Please do not confuse between reality and fantasy. For a simple example when Manjima and STR sister say that they are gonna start a Duo Script Writer company...I was really shocked and thrilled to hear that...This one thing could have been the back bone of the story ...but GVM did not build it. Never mind...I was disappointed.
