Arrambam

I enjoyed this movie with my husband whose an awesome die hard fan of Ajith, which dragged my interest to watch this movie and i would say it has been a pleasure watching it. Ajith's charismatic look and his stylish screen presence has been simply gripping.

For the much hype created by media it really lives up to the expectations and is a satisfying thrill ride. Arya is a charm, as the happy-go-lucky guy and hilarious effort in college with Nayan is a rocker. Om Prakash has canned every frame with passion.

Music didn't go satisfying for a bump, could have been better.

Simple, elegant and class -- Ajith show all the way

I am ready for the next one.

Stylish over the top revenge romp. Ajith show from the first frame to the last. He has terrific screen presence.

The story is set in Tamil cinema's current favourite milieu, Mumbai. AK alias Ashok (Ajith) a former bomb disposal specialist and a Dirty Harry type who shoots-the-scums of earth is on a revenge romp. Along with his lady love Maya (Nayanthara), he forcibly ropes in a computer hacker Arjun (Arya) and his lover Anita (Taapsee) into his nefarious plans

Perfect star cast & technically chic. The revenge motive is well established. Arya & Ajith bickering and bonding, scenes Arya being trapped by Ajith & Nayan in the 1st half a scream.

Minus Points – The Yuvan- Vishnu combo fails for the first time, not even one hummable song

Loved Mahesh Manjrekar & his villainy, climax with Thala & Kishore good.Overall it is a perfect shoot-revenge

Arrambam is a perfect entertainment

First Half was very racy but the second half was dragging.. A stylish Movie from the team.. Though movie is not like the previous Billa and Mangatha.. #Arrambam has all the necessary elements to succeed in the Diwali race

On the Whole #Arrambam is a watchable movie for neutrals and a treat of Ajith Fans..

When a series of blasts rocks Mumbai, the police go on a witch hunt to capture the accused but little do they who is against them or what his plans are. AK (Ajith) lays a web trapping Maya (nayanthara), Arjun (Arya) and Anita (Taapsee) in the due process. But what he has planned for them forms the rest of the story.

Ajith kumar as AK shines through out with his slow motion walking, careful planning and of course goes guns blazing when weeds pop out. Arya has played a faithful sidekick to Ajith's plan and occasionally tickles the funny bone. Nayanthara's oomph factor has been meticulously blended with the movie's overall glam. Taapsee seems totally out of place and lacks character depth. The rest of cast except for Kishore fail to catch the eye.

The screenplay starts well except for Arya's "winged" flashback which is a total drag to an otherwise brilliant first half. Second half spells calamity to both AK and the screenplay. Before the credits roll AK kills more than Uma thurman in "Kill Bill". But there are some references to real life places like "Nariman house" though the team claims that this is a work of fiction. Well, we believe you.

Cinematography blends well with the pace and the cameraman has done a good job surviving between the many bullets. Songs are a let down (Ajith fans in my screening felt otherwise, but it's understandable) and play havoc to the screenplay's pace. Action choreography should have made more, for a lack of a better word, realistic.

The second half of the second half lets you down and you will want the movie to end as soon as possible. For reasons, read the preceding paragraph.

PS: Steady start, shaky finish.

One of the biggest movie events of the year was unveiled for the public's viewing pleasure today morning. Arrambam, directed by Vishnuvardhan, has a lot going for it and has it satiated the appetite of countless Ajith fanatics? Right from frame one, it is clear that Ashok Kumar (Ajith) is a man on a mission and one who is hell bent on exposing the people behind an ugly scam and bringing them to book. He has his comrades who will go to any lengths for him and help him in his operation.

Director Vishnuvardhan, writer duo Subha and editor Sreekar Prasad have to be commended for managing to keep the audiences hooked to their seats for a majority of the movie with very few drag moments. With a running time of more than two and a half hours, the screenplay is taut and crisp enough to keep the crowd arrested.

The large mass of Ajith fans have plenty of moments to scream and whistle in delight. Ajith's screen presence is mighty as ever, and his classy salt and pepper looks and V neck T shirts suit his character's mean streak. The star's prowess at stunts and his knack of taking risks for the stunt scenes is all too well-known and when he dives out of a van onto an approaching car and zooms around in a Ducati, the entire crowd rises in unison to clap. Even some of Ajith's subtle gestures, his gait and his typical shades delight his fans. #behimdwoods.
