"Achamundu Achamundu " is not a regular movie that we come across in Tamil Cinema Industry . Yes it is the first one to be shot on Red One Digital camera ,shot wholly in U.S. ,it has an hollywood actor playing a important role . But what makes it unique is the subject matter - very bold , topical & relevant yet presented in a pleasant manner without any voyeuristic indulgence . Technically the movie is top notch with stunning cinematography & world class background score .All the actors have put in some natural , subtle acting .
Prasanna's is a neat portrayal of an young American-indian professional ,a loving husband & a caring father.Emotions come effortlessly for him whether it is love , anger or anguish . But one do get felling that he is getting type cast ("Anjathey " being an exception.)
Sneha is another natural performer & lives up to the expectations .
John Shea sends shivers down the spine with his cold blooded smile & by his characterisation.
Karthick Raja's musical score is world class. It is one of the best background score in recent times .It is a great shame that so much talented as he is , he is yet to fulfill his potential in the Tamil Cinema Industry.
Chris Frielich is the cinematographer & he is yet another reason why this movie is of international quality . The digital film making at it's best probably for the first time in Tamil cinema without any aberrations .
Arun Vaidyanathan is the brain behind this movie . He has taken a complex subject & presented it in a very simple manner . The screenplay is very lucid & direction adequate though there is some scope for improvement as there are couple of instances amateurishness here & there . Dialogues are natural without any scope for melodrama or theatrics .The very slow pace of the movie may offset some.
Bottomline : A good attempt .
3.5 / 5
