Story: A neo-noir film with an interesting plot. A very well planned script. It was a multi-dimensional narration centered in two characters indirectly connected in first half towards getting directly connected in second half. Unexpected multiple twists and the movie had an awesome fluctuation of pace. Good drama, comedy, action and thriller. A lot of resemblance of common real life incidents. The turning point of the story was epic. And as usual Karthik Subbaraj is a good player when it comes to climax. So stay tuned.
Cast: Siddharth as Karthik. An ambitious director. Good choice of cast. His expressions and gestures to explore were simply superb. Can't say much or it'll be a spoiler in the movie. Lakshmi Menon as Kayal. She is the lead lady in the movie. Regardless of having very limited presence in the movie, she became main contributor for the turning point. Simha of Soodhu Kavvum fame as Assault Sethu. He is the man of the match of the movie. Excellent performance. A very meaty role which becomes the key to the story. One of the best a rural don character I've ever seen. Karunagaran of Soodhu Kavvum fame as Oorni. A comical character who handles major part of the humour in the movie. And many other supporting characters played by Nassar, Ramachandran Durairaj, Guru Somasundram and many more.
Screenplay: First thing to notice in the film is the cinematography. Excellent. The definition and angles were very good. Slow motions were used at the right place. All the sequences were captured in a very realistic manner. No exaggerations. The intro was amazing, they initiated with a follow camera and starts with a cut and short dialogues with shocking opening. And the second pace was slightly slow pace since it was more on explanation of the subject. Good thing about the movie, the director had a lot of surprises. Just when you start predicting the movie, he will prove you wrong. Simple and superb dialogues. I enjoyed every single scenes involving Simha. regardless of being serious subject, the movie had an awesome comedy and sentimental scenes. And the continuity of the scenes and its transitions were smooth. Editing well done. But the movie was lengthy. yet still worth it. And the good thing about the movie, a little bit of movie making and acting inputs were disclosed. Overall all the scenes in the movie simple and impactful.
Music: The music composed by Santosh Narayanan. The BGM is one of the highlight in the movie. But the songs were a bit different from usual
Plus Point: Story, Screenplay, Cinematography, Cast and BGM
Minus Point: Lengthy
Verdict: A major treat for movie lovers.
