Achcham Yenbadhu Madamaiyada

Movie is fantastic. STR is good actor. STR climax scene gorgeous and awesome. Manjima Mohan act as a heroine it's really Appreciatable. STR is Tamilnadu Allu Arjun. He is doing Style and Dance like Allu Arjun.

Simbu is at his best form in this movie.

I think he can be called Super Star of 21st century in Kollywood.

AR Rahman music was super fantastic.

this film is a true comeback for Simbu.

Gautham Vasudev Menon and Silambarasan reunite in Achcham Enbadhu Madamaiyada after their successful collaboration in Vinnaithaandi Varuvaayaa. Unlike their previous romantic drama, Achcham Enbadhu Madamaiyada is a much more action-oriented film. The film initially starts as a soft romantic drama and later, turns into a full-fledged action thriller with the focus on elevating Silambarasan's mass hero image. As usual, Gautham Menon had well-established the characters and their backstories without much entering into complicated flashbacks. Unfortunately, the story and the screenplay seem to be a little bit messed after the interval because of the confusing twists that happen after it. This is why the twists and turns don't work much in the film. Even the climax is pure let down because it lacks logic. The film is not to the Vinnaithaandi Varuvaaya standards. Gautham Menon seems to have blend in the romantic drama genre and the action thriller genre in the same film which is probably why the film doesn't work much. Even Manjima Mohan's backstory seems to be too stretched in the climax which is one of the reasons for keeping us away from the film. Even with these flaws, Achcham Enbadhu Madamaiyada is watchable for Simbu and Manjima's fresh pairing. They are both performing within their space and it's quite natural too. On the other side, A. R. Rahman had scored a much memorable and loveable album. His background score works much in the film's favor. Overall, this film is definitely not to the usual Gautham Menon standards but it is watchable for its kind.

The movie was not good. Songs and BGM in the movie was superb. But there is no interesting part in the movie. The movie was very boring. The fight scenes in the movie was good.

First of all, as a reviewer , i am from the Minnale generation and everyone knows what a huge hit that movies was back in 2001 which propelled gautham menon to the list of A list directors. Over the years Menon has went on to do multiple stories each with its own distinct plot but driven by his classic crime - love plots after the success of his second film "Khakka Khakka" while introducing new plot driven presentations for each subsequent movie.

You find yourself in an action film complete with corrupt cops and cold-blooded killers. The action which is plot driven rather than stunt driven is intense enough, with a series of close call events betrayal and other action genre elements. In some levels the movie reminds one of Menon's "Khakka Khakka" and "Vinnai thandi varuvaya" movies. The female lead Manjima Mohan is surprisingly good for her debut performance with her Reema Sen like acting style and by far the best of all female leads in Menon's movies

However the strongest aspect of the movie which is plot driven scenes does not come without flaws. At times logic takes a backseat with obviously glaring plot holes. The villains had always been at the forefront in all Gautham movies , however in this one they seem to lack the finesse of Pandiya character from Khakka Khakka or Amudhan from Vettaiyaadu Vilaiyaadu. However this can be justified as the villain is from north India and exhibits characteristics different from Tamil villains and this is not a full fledged crime themed movie like "Khakka Khakka". Daniel Balaji who played the main villain in Vettaiyaadu Vilaiyaadu plays a minor villain role. It will have been better if he had a full fledged role.

The performance of Simbu, as usual the happy go lucky hero persona, at times seem to be inconsistent especially in the second half but the action plot will quickly distract the viewer from any fault finding.Unlike the director's earlier movies , the romance - crime integration flows in a straight plot rather than alternating between flashbacks as in his earlier movies.

As usual the finesse of AR Rahman's music can be seen here both int he songs and background tracks and he has taken the gautham - menon combo to a new level while retaining the usual feel of their earlier musical collaboration.

Although the film brings nothing new in terms of story other than the usual run of the mill stuff seen in other Tamil movies like "Arima Nambi or Thadayara Thakka , the simple plot driven execution and nuances of romance incorporated into the action scenes is somewhat better done than in other movies and carries the classic Gautham Menon touches. However one cant help having the nostalgic feeling and a story or plot that looks and feels like the early 2000s menon movie.

Overall watchable for the thrills , music and plot.
