Story: First time giving review for a Malaysian Movie. A thriller story on violence against women. Something new in Malaysian Tamil Movie Industry. The director had placed ample of romance,drama and suspense elements in this movie. The good thing about the movie is that it was customized for local audience in terms of lifestyle. Simple but impactful story.
Cast: Since it was female oriented movie, the main cast was Joy Rasan. She played Swashna, an independent and workaholic a girl. first half she did well in showing how sneaky she is when it comes to handling her boyfriend and messed up big time through petty things. But second half acting as a traumatic girl, she was the "woman of the match" I guess. I don't think any other local actress did as natural as her.Especially when she raged towards the journalist. the speech was clear regardless of boiling emotions. Hats off. Vinash Mitra as Matthew, Swashna's boyfriend. He had this funny accent when he speaks. I'm not sure whether it was intentional by the director or he really does have that accent but some scenes the speech could not be delivered well. But one thing worth appreciating was his emotions. Matthew manage to carry out his anger and disappointment excellently. His dialogues might not be right but his expressions were priceless. Kuben Mahadevan as Maaran the antagonist. Trust me he was epic. never seen that in any local movies. Needs a lot courage to do that type of role. Less dialogues and more actions. He really resembled the hardcore negative character with his gestures. There were a few supporting characters like Pd Sara, Yotesri Shanmugam and Jaya Ganason.
Screenplay: It was very good effort for a first timer. The dialogues were well written. Most mistakes Malaysian film dialogues are they try to imitate Indian Tamil films. But in this movie the dialogues were like usual Malaysian conversational dialogues.And some part were straight forward which suited the scenes. In terms of Cinematography, the shades were relevant with the story. It was dark and manage to boost up the elements of suspense. But there were scenes where angles were well positioned. Couldn't see the characters wholly. Sound engineering was fair. Because the speech and specific sounds were overlapping the surrounding. But the BGM was awesome, really aligned with the scenes. The directors best achievement is to make the key role to act naturally. And Karthik manage to do that. Hats off bro. And the "Peygal Manil" song as time lapse video, was good effort, ice cream melting and Joy was constant while others moving. it was awesome.
Music: Composed by Sameshan Mani Maran, 3 songs and Adaimazhai was sweet and nice.
Plus Point: Screenplay, Cast , BGM, Dialogues and Story
Minus Point:Sound Mixing and Camera Angle. It was a bit draggy
Verdict: Watch this at cinema and have a new experience in local cinema.
