What’s Hot
- It’s been long since we had a gripping horror-thriller in Tamil & it is to be welcome with utmost pleasure that a debutant director, Karthik Subbaraj could break the routine & quite convincingly too!
- The creepy, at times psychic narration, works brilliantly sending the viewer into anxiety and the setup (home & pizza place) with limited characters helps the film stay brisk throughout.
- Performance-wise, the hero Vijay Sethupathi has a nice role and his expressions and dubbing have been realistic. Giving him nice company are his Pizza shop colleagues and lover, played perfectly by Ramya Nambeesan.
- Music by Santhosh is apt and experimental at the same time (western symphony type notes) & songs are good too. Ninaithadhai has the European jazz flavor oft seen in title cards in Woody Allen films. The BGM is brilliant too and the 7.1 surround sound accentuates it.
- A lot of the film happens in dark and indoors. So, the camera work which is easy on the eye deserves a special pat for being so good; Some nice editing makes this crispy too!
What’s Not
- The twist, though not easily predictable, lacks the punch giving a short-film effect; The climax, though, makes up for it!
