Onaayum Aattukkuttiyum

Onaiyum Aatukuttiyum -(A Wolf and A Lamb) - A tense,dark,nail biting thriller with a riveting screenplay containing no songs or comedy tracks and in typical Myshkin style. A simple script but shot well entirely without any drags. Sree's acting was simply perfect. The cinematography was stunning, considering the fact that almost the entire movie was shot at night. Above all,the soundtrack by Sir Ilayaraja was great (except for the final sword fight). Watch out for few amazing scenes like the one where Myshkin narrates his story in a single long take. Just don't miss this classic!

I wish they make more such movies in Tamil,to compete strongly in World Cinema, instead of doing the same commercial stuff over and over. I again wish that big actors have guts to act in movies like this. Hope audience turn out to watch such films.

I really expect this movie for various award categories like Direction, Story, Music, Acting, Stunt, Screenplay, Cinematography, Costume, Plot, etc... My God this movie is simply brilliant... After a long time had a very good satisfaction watching this movie. Highly recommended awesome movie, extraordinary music score and fabulous acting by all the artists. Shri is very energetic throughout the movie and had performed very well, Mysskin is very good and especially brilliant performance and dialogue delivery by the CBI officer Shaji(Lal), he just suits extremely well for that character. Hats off to Mysskin and Raja Sir for giving out a masterpiece... A must watch

I'm writing this review with shear anger and disappointment! A movie if it was made in Hollywood, would be preserved and the script would be under the scrutiny of the best minds in prestigious universities! But the movie (The Masterpiece) is not getting the Reward And the award it deserves, not even from the natives! Getting to the story, it is not a story that could be translated into such a masterpiece by every Tom, Dick & Harry, Not only the story but the narration is path breaking to say the least! It is about how far one will go to suppress the animal instinct in him and how far a "Refurbished" human would go to remain human! this is the simple one liner and the rest you have to see to believe it! Out of the top 10 clichés (AB)used in Indian cinema flashback sequences takes the cake but in this masterpiece The Director MYSSKIN has given a fresh treatment to the flashback sequence making it effective and impact full! No words to describe the BGM of Ilayaraja and this soundtrack proves why he is the RAJA! A movie for all and a movie (masterpiece) that should be appreciated as well as endorsed by every sensible movie buff!

Onayum Attukuttiyum breaks the modus operandi of Indian Cinema that follows a regular diagram we are all aware and definitely bored of. I would like to recall one of Mysskin's interviews with a film web portal, where he reiterated that this movie does not have a hero.

"My movie does not have a hero. But there will be characters that perform heroic deeds" He said

Mysskin is back with a simple story line pictured in brilliant way. He proves that his perfection in his every shot. Every character in this movie is scripted well and delivered at their best. A must watch movie for this who enjoy movie making. Way to go Mysskin! Please continue your perfection!

I was actually reluctant to watch Myskin movie due to the previous and movie, stereo typed of movie making like showing the legs running. i'm not the great fan Myskin's style of movie making and this is based on a Dutch movie. But Sir Illayaraja's music review made me to watch this.

I must admit the movie was a cult classic though. The director trusted the script and characters, and made no compromise like gana songs. First half was okay his usual style which i'm bit bored. The movie soars up in second with greater magnitude which eventually leave with a great sense of feeling about the movie. No one in the world can compose BGM like this. He showcased how BGM lifts the movie. Myskin as an actor, lived in the movie. No boring flashbacks, the story telling was at different level altogether. Story briefing was ultimate to the movie. As usual in Myskin's, everybody lived as character except few clitches in Police dialogues.

The movie might not be a super hit, but it was easily better than many movies released in last two years.

Keep up the good work.
