Masss Engira Masilamani by Venkat Prabhu (Review)

                                       


*******Spoiler Alert*******

Story: A horror comedy story with elements of commercialism. A mixture of Ghost whisperer and Kanchana. Lack of originality and some cliched narration. Yet loved the way how it relates to humanity, family and revolution. Especially how ghost haunting and exorcism shown from a con-man perspective.

Cast: Suriya as Mass and Shakti. Very well played. One reason why you should watch this movie is Suriya. Excellent performance. Awesome dialogue deliverance especially as eelam tamilan. Expression priceless. Nayanthara as Manini, Hero's lady love. Touch and go character. But her presence was pleasant. Pranitha as second lead lady. Also minor role but strong one. Turning point of the movie. Premji as Jet Li. Well he is the same venkat prabhu product. This movie can be said a multistarrer too. Parthipan made a great cameo role. And Samuthirakanni as never seen before role named RK. And of course all the ghost characters which should not be revealed due to spoiler effect. Everyone had an important role in the movie.

Screenplay: The thing about Venkat Prabhu is he would not have strong story but definitely a great screenplay. The presence of ghost was shown in different dimension. The twists in his movies were great except one which is the main one was cliched. Loved the scenes on family value and humanity portrayed in the movie. Comedy as usual VP's cup of tea. He did awesome. The first half was rushing and couldnt see much of it but during second half, it gets better and more engaging. Well camera work was inconsistent but not that obvious. Of course you cant expect that much of a logic in horror comedy movies. Song sequence were great but first 3 songs were near to each other. Some action sequence was great and some were overdone. A great masala treat it is.

Music: Composed by Yuvan Shankar Raja. Superb music and BGM

Plus Point: 
Screenplay, Cast, Suriya's acting, Comedy

Minus Point: Lack of originality in story, draggy at one point.

Verdict: An enjoyable masala movie.
