Critics Review

2.50

Worth a watch.

The cleverly structured script and the smart screenplay has the viewer captivated throughout, except when the lead couple engages in some sweet talk. Though there is nothing new about the plot, it has been backed by remarkable performances from the entire cast, especially from Prabhu and Nadiya. Yuvan Shankar Raja's music adds to the feel of the countryside. Art director Kadhir's contribution deserves mention. The stunts by Rocky Rajesh is a USP of the movie. (more)

In the grip of the sickle throughout (the gun makes its appearance only in the finale)!

Hari has a few interesting twists and suspenseful sequences in the narration. The story is not new but it is gripping. Sprightly and cheerful or serious and emotional, Vishal's acting skills are surely improving. A picture of dignity throughout, Prabhu sparkles. Banu has an expressive face and shines in the heavy scenes. Nadiya comes back looking trim, prim and proper, and her versatility glows. Yuvan Shankar Raja disappoints. Both camera (Priyan) and art (Kadhir) deserve special mention, so does V.T.Vijayan's editing. (more)

Thamirabarani - Typical blend.

Hari has mixed all the ingredients so well in a smart storyline, so much so that you get a new flavor. Vishal is full of virility and his action sequences are bravado stuff. Newcomer Banu does what is required of her. Veterans Prabhu and Nadhiya offer splendid backing to the script. Nasser, Vijayakumar and others do their job diligently. Yuvan, though not in prime form, shows glimpses of his talent. The camera and other technical works are okay. (more)
