My review: Muniyandi, Vilangiyal 3am aandu
THIRUMURUGAN: After a sensible debut , he follows it up with a senseless routine masala action fare which is not his forte. Nothing wrong in trying out an action movie but it should keep the audience interested . Here unwarranted sentiments , female bashing scenes , dialogues & songs, item number .......mars the proceedings.
PLOT: Age old revenge tale in the backdrop of college politics and caste fued.
BHARATH : Reliable as ever . He can do this type of roles even if woke up at mid night.He tries to imitate his "mentor"in the opening song , comedy scenes & some romantic scenes.
POORNA: A credible debut who is good at both histrionics & dance but her hard work seem to be let down by a bizarre characterization which reminds us of the Shobana-Vijaykanth movies of yesteryears (Pattuku oru thalaivan , enkitta modhadey....)
Ponvannan has a dignified role which he underplays with elan. But it is painful to see a National Award winner like Thara reduced to run of the mill mother roles. Villians compete one another in the ham-fest .
VADIVELU : Out of 6 scenes , 2 evoke laughter esp. that scene in which he kills the old lady &escapes .
VIDHYASAGAR: Credits say he is the MD. Is it so Vidhya?? One of the worst BGM score in recent times.
Cinematographer takes us to the lush green coconut fields of Pollachi but the action scenes are painful to the eyes.
He seems to carry the "Metti Oli" sentiment baggage on his shoulders yet trying an action flick . AND he is left stranded in the middle .
BOTTOMLINE : It is like savoring a chicken briyani prepared by the chefs of Saravana Bhavan . Not spicy & tasty.
Go for it if you like experimenting with your money & time
3/5
