What’s Hot
- Balajee Tharaneetharan is a welcome addition to the list of new-age unorthodox directors who prove their substance in their first outing! It must have been mighty difficult to convert the one-line into a 150 minute script which he has done quite stunningly!
- His choice of actors and crewmen has been impeccable – Most of them are newbies, but that doesn’t show up! The friends in particular have rocked!
- Vijay Sethupathy’s portrayal here, is probably among the most difficult as he has to give lifeless expressions when there is a riotous ruckus going on around him, because of him. He pulls it off quite easily!
- The background score adds life, so do the witty explosive dialogues and the camera work in the pivotal scene at the start was especially good.
- Some sequences remain memorable: The ones at ‘Hairport’ saloon & the Hospital for example!
What’s Not
- The film drags towards the end especially in the reception sequence where there is good scope for trimming.
Possibly the cleanest film (devoid of double entendres and alcohol/smoking sequences) to come out in a very long time …
