A confused script with an oddly old vigilante subject and truckloads of money Kalaipuli Thanu managed to spend on this production.Stay away from this painfully long 3 hours and thirty minutes of stylishlishly shot collection of garb.
I missed the following when I watched this film..
- Susi Ganesan's wonderful narrating skills seen in his debut vehicle Virumbugiren
- Vikram's wide range of histrionics. He is seen wearing a cocky outfit in a vigilante role.
- Shriya's dancing skills given her ballet background
The story is about Kandasamy (Vikram) a CBI officer and his friends who start a crusade for bringing all the black money stashed in foreign countries (stale isn't it?). The motive is damn weak and the unnecessary cat fight betweek vikram and Shreya (daughter of the clicked villain) is atrocious.
Shreya has been done injustice in this film by making her dance to some really bad dance steps and the "Meow Meow" song was laughable. Songs didn't impress me even with visuals. But I have to confess that I loved the final song with some beautiful dance movements by Mumaith Khan who looks steaming hot delicious :-)
Dont even ask me about breaking the suspense of the story. Its got none. Ya..I forgot to tell you that Vikram appears in 2 more get ups. One as a lady (for comedy) and the other as an old man (dont even ask me why). I have to mention that technicaly film is top notch. Especially cinematography, the edits and the overall look of the film. It looks like the film travels to exotic locations such as Mexico just for this reason.
On the whole this film might earn loads of money within few weeks of release. This is due to the no. of shows being (100 in Chennai alone) screened and the prints made (900 copies i
suppose) like so many popular films lately. But if given a chance I would like to erase this one from the filmography of Vikram and Susi Ganesan. My 200 bucks went to drain :-(
