Climax action scenes is kind of inspired from Kantara . It was a production disaster. Music directors was fired mid way. AA was very unhappy . Sukumar allegedly was so sick that he was in hospital for few days. But AAs stardom pulled this through. This is a movie for mazdoors. They made it a cult hit. I will not watch it as I am not the target audience. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I started working out and watching while doing it. Then i did some chores while TV was running. I only had this reloaded edition which runs for 3 hours 44 minutes. I say That is 3 hours 14 minutes more than it needs. Poor character development. It is almost like they kept changing story as they went along. Cringeworthy romance scenes.

Impressed with photography, locales and first half in metro to an pro-naxal story. Although technically the film is superb, the later half is thoroughly naxal-sympathizing and showing police brutality. People in tribal areas get harassed more by naxals than the police. They rule the areas more brutally. This shows kind of one-sided. will not bother with part 2. Although my fav actor Vijay Sethupathi has more role in part 2. These politically loaded films bring in national awards and high praise from left leaning jholawallah critics. Nevertheless, Vetrimaaran has good grasp on craft. Asuran is a great movie. But, i guess, he has taken the positive feedback/praise from "intellectual circles" for granted. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Vetrimaaran does a lot of research on what he does. Also his movies are based on some novels. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It may at times feel stretched, but in totality the story will help us remember the non existent childhood that we grew up with. Those summer holidays, playing around with cousins, fighting for small cheap candies. Arvind Swamy as always a formidable actor, Kaarthi at times frankly sounded irritating, but I guess that the issue with dubbing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Malayalam movie kind of thriller set in politcal/protest background. Must watch @Mariyam your irani relatives/friends might have asked you to watch it ps:- wifey asked me to give good review in bookmyshow and pvr cinemas My Iranian relatives are totally westernized. My brother married a woman of Iranian ethnicity but she is an American through and through. In her speech, mannerisms and even temperament. Her only un-American feature is her intelligence. She is quite sharp and witty. Apart from her questionable choice of a spouse, she has done quite well for herself. She does not like Iranian cinema. Has never spoken to me about it. She doesn't like Indian cinema much either. That means me and her don't have any common grounds for conversation apart from cribbing about my brother. Her parents are migrants from Iran and they watch *|Bollywood* movies. Especially the 60s/70s/80s stuff. They love it. velu, zen, Gollum and 1 other 3 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He has not only cut through the insane Green card queue for Indian passport holders but also married a successful woman. 2 birds, 1 stone.
