Wow wow wow are the three words striking my mind after coming out of theater. you are well guaranteed with entertainment, patriotism and bits of romance. Satyan performed well . Jayaram as cameo done his part well
Kajal did well .
The positive notch in this film is camera by the great Santhosh Sivan . His angles and positioning were awesome. Especially an action block before interval .
The main reason for this movie is obviously AR MURUGADOSS. He again proved he is a good script writer . His pen worked hard in the simple story with many twists .
Vijay carries the story in his shoulders throughout the movie .He performed well . A new hair style and mannerisms worked well .
Positives:
Vijay Script and screenplay Camera Google Google Vidhyut
Negtaives:
Background score Wasting Jayaram
