MANJAL VEYIL

My Review : Manjal Veyil



The long delayed "Manjal Veyil " finally gets a release this week .The shows onscreen for this is a movie which may have worked in the mid-nineties when we used to have number of such movies with friendship-love angle thrown in with a tragic climax. But this movie sadly look woefully out of place in 2009 .Movie moves at a very slow pace which may test your patience .

Prasanna & Sandhya have nothing much to do as far as acting in concerned though the whole movie revolves around them.Prasanna looks jaded & disinterested while Sandhya looks plump .Bala , the 3rd hero comes & goes in a role with limited scope & time-space.

M.S.Baskar's comedy misses this time.

R.K. (of "Ellam Avan Seyal ") evoke more laughs than M.S.Baskar (though unintended) as the Villan Rajesh with some very funny wig.

Baradhwaj's music is boring to say the least .

Technically the movie is shoddy & tacky.

Vaseegaran who has written & directed the movie must have been living in totally different era totally detached from the present trend.

On the whole , skip this headache inducing movie for good.

Bottomline: Catch your favorite 90's movie in a DVD instead.

1.5/5
