Sketch

Sketch (played by Vikram) works as a repo-man, and excels at his job. He meets Amuthavalli (played by Tamannaah), a college student, when taking her friend's scooter and eventually falls in love with her. When she sees past the rough exterior to the kind man inside, she begins to care for him, too, despite her parents' objections. Later, to settle an old grievance for his boss, Settu (Hareesh Peradi), Sketch works out a plan to take the classic Fiat of a local gangster, "Royapuram" Kumar (played by Baburaj), an action that sets off a tragic chain of events for Sketch and his friends.

The main story, that of Sketch doing his job, fighting bad guys, and caring for his friends, is entertaining and even occasionally moving. The romance part of the plot is the weak link; there is little chemistry between Tamannaah and Vikram, and though she gives a good performance in general, there is no zing in their scenes together. In the other aspects of the film, however, Vikram is fully convincing as Sketch. The songs and background music are only average, but the cinematography is nicely done and the action scenes are fun. There is a most surprising twist, and the movie is worth watching if only for that.

After the Movie "I" this is the Best Movie for Vikram.

I usually appreciate Vikram movies. He is one of the best actors in Tamil film industry. But I can't include this movie in the list of his best movies. Why? Because it's a typical Tamil action-cum-masala movie. Entry song, that too a Kuthu song, hero bombarding ten rowdies armed with deadly weapons, empty handedly, situation songs, etc. I can't tolerate anymore and I have decided never to watch another Tamil masala film in my life. On one hand, good movies like Mayavan, Vidhi Madhi ultaa emerging in Tamil movie industry, and on the other hand masala movies like this! What a paradox! If mass heros like Vikram, Surya, etc. don't change their acting styles and types of movies they choose, there won't be any place for them in Tamil movie industry. This movie has a twist end and I really don't like the twist. Even though this movie has a message, it will exert a bad influence in the society. Because most of the people tend to grasp the negative points in a movie, forgetting the good central theme. It's better to avoid making movies like this.

This reminded me of an older movie Vikram back in the day, Bheema. It had a similar feel. The movie started off slow, as if there was no direction. But as the movie progressed it got more interesting and the climax was unexpected. The second half of the movie was a little more intriguing than the first half The movie was too violent for my taste. It was over-exaggerated making it feel pointless to the story line. Vikram was very good. It felt like he was given the flexibility to do his role. In contrast, Tamannaah's role was limited. Her character was unique but she barely got any screen time. It was like she was there only for a few words and the songs. The songs were nice but not really memorable. Overall, the movie was interesting but there was just so many scenes packed in that it made the movie feel slow.

Its not vikram type movie and climax not good. Tamanna acting is good.. Vikram gave justice to his character.. But its a normal story.. No special in it.
