The love story is the high-light, it begins very well, Vijay S, and his masterclass acting sure takes it to a peak. Accompanied by poor writing, even Vijay S can't keep one hooked for long.If at all, worth trying, but I strongly recommend not enduring it for the full duration.Such movies show how a sleek bar is one's best friend!
... View MoreI feel as a tamil guy great movie as youve seen as a tamil lover . The dialogues given by vijay sethupathi as the best tamil love guy. You will surely do th things he has done for your true love.nice and touchng movie.
... View MoreMovie was promising with the good star cast like Vijay Sethupathi, Nayantara but what you get is nothing from it, because it has half baked screenplay. Yes ! It is true, the only Pros of this movie are Nayanathara's acting & Soothing tunes. Undoubtedly, all Songs are worth listening and remembering(Especially the tracks: Nuvvu Nenu & Nenu Rowdy ne..). Considering low budget & not so high production values it would have been a profitable venture in Kollywood. The movie pretends to be a dark Comedy but hardly it created any laughter. It is not upto the mark in terms of making you laugh. #ChiruReviews
... View MoreAs an Indian boy growing up not knowing any of the languages in India and being exposed to western culture throughout my childhood, watching Indian movies (particularly Tamil 'Kollywood' movies) was a pain in every orifice in my body. (This statement alone would offend half the Indian population, but please, bear with me here.)I hated the poor quality and downright predictable storyline that is predominant in most Tamil movies. It's like every movie NEEDS the following ingredients: 1. Cool Indian dude (you can tell he's a hero if he's fairer than everyone else around him in most cases) 2. Hot Indian chick (you can tell she's the heroine if she's fairer than everyone else around her. In every case.) 3. They meet and fall in love. 4. Family comes in and prevents anything from happening (Usually, the girl's side) 5. Cool Indian dude kicks some ass. 6. Chick sees this. Her family sees it too. 7. A couple of songs shot in Switzerland or England. 8. He kicks more ass, family loves cool Indian dude now. 9. The end.This movie however, is different. It has some of the above ingredients, but with a delightful twist. The storyline is certainly not a common one and the cinematography is excellent. Certain scenes were so absurd, as a viewer I was left wondering whether the movie was being serious. But it was absurd in a very good way. The main protagonist in the movie in many ways build an emotional connection with the viewers, a feat very few Indian movies manage to successfully pull off. Often times you would be rooting for him to succeed in his mission, but you know that it is a pointless one. That kept me hooked. Wondering how on earth is he going to succeed.The heroine in this movie is also an unusual one. I mean sure, she's fair and pretty and tall and all that, but she's also deaf. When most Indian movies portray a perfect heroine or hero, both of them in this movie are not the least bit perfect, which is breaking a serious cinema taboo in India. That for me, was already a good selling point.But the best part of this movie was without a doubt, it's music. Anirudh has outdone himself in his choice of music in this movie. The songs were memorable and it fit the scenes very well (oh and there are no random dance scenes in Switzerland. Yay for logic.)The ONLY complaint about this movie that I can honestly make is Nayanthara's acting. It was poor. She clearly did not take the time to study how lip readers speak, how the behave and how they carry out their daily routines. I have never seen a completely deaf person speak perfectly. I have never heard a person who's gone deaf speak ANY language which as much precision as she did in this movie. So yeah. Maybe they can dub the movie again with an actual deaf person to make it seem more believable, because as it stands, I did not for a second believe that she was deaf in that movie. Not even after she told everyone that she was deaf.Overall though, it's still a good watch. I am glad to see Tamil movies take steps to be different. Final verdict: 8/10
