    One Word about the Movie is "CLASS"

    Usual Cop story, but different transformation from Thala in the movie was good. All four getup's are fit to thala. Beard look in police style and narrating voice shows why GVM chooses thala for the script.

    Missing Thala's Screen Presence and Mass punch, but all covered by Class Cinematography by Dan and Edits by Anthony. Trisha is gorgeous ever scene in any other movie.

    Arun Vijay gave his best level performance in this movie and others like Anuska, vivek did their roles wonderfully.

    BGM Harris sir not met the expectation, but managed in the songs. Malai Varpoghuthe - Song Repeated in my playlist ( Karthik Voice awesome) Unnakena venum sollu - show the love between father and daughter.

    Fans will definitely like this movie.

    Over clichéd story line

    Yennai arindhal (YA) was one of the awaited films of the year as it has got Thala Ajith kumar and Gautam Vasudev menon (GVM) together which automatically raised the audience expectations. I went to the movie honestly without any high hopes or dis likeness. We all know from the posters and trailers that this is a story about a cop dealing gangsters. Not a quite new storyline to Tamil cinema even this is third movie in the same storyline for GVM.

    The film was totally lifted by Ajith's performance as a cop, as a father, as a lover. He was ultimate in fitting the character.

    The huge let down was GVM's story, direction, screenplay and even dialogues. None of these four pillars were taken care properly. Story age old one, the screenplay was slow and ultimately predictable. Even I felt the dialogues were unnecessarily lengthy. Direction I didn't that GVM did something new here. He literally did cut copy paste from his previous ventures Vetaiyadu and Kakha Kakha. The characterisation of Ajith was the same as Raghavan and Anbuchelvan with their designations essayed by Kamal and Suriya respectively in GVM's previous scripts.

    Trisha and Anushka play the female leads in the movie. Both of their characterisation had resemblance of JO's character in VV and KK. Even the way Trisha was portrayed and they way she uttered dialogues was exactly similar to Jo in VV. Trisha was ultimately fitting and ravishingly beautiful on the role of Hemanika. Anushka as Thenmozhi she did fairly well except some fault with her hair do looked somewhat elderly. But both the lead ladies had very limited screen space.

    Arun Vijay as the villain again imitated the villains of KK and VV. Nothing new in his characterization as well. But he did justice to the role. Vivek as the assistant to the hero had limited scope to comedy but where ever he had chance he tried well to make jokes.

    Harris it real time for you to work hard and bring in fresh tunes in songs and BGM.

    When we see particular scenes repeat from some movies we call it cliché but YA was one over clichéd attempt making us restless sometimes but one time watch for our Thala. My rating would be 2.5/5 for the whole movie considering Ajith it would be 3/5. -Reviewed by Balachandran Sivakumar

    Awesome movie, MUST SEE if this is your first GVM Movie.

    To be really honest, I'm a big fan of Ajith, so according to me, however the film is: I'm going to enjoy with Thala Nadu.

    This is my first GVM movie, I'm watching in a theater. As you can see, the plot is very easy to understand with some of the twists here and there - but no big twists.

    This is one of the best films of Ajith, in which he has acted up to his potential as he does in most of his movies.

    After seeing the movie at 6 AM, I felt like I had to see it again, so I did so! Only the second time, I could hear the dialogues clearly and we all loved it!

    GVM has done an awesome job with his movie. I believe the movie is worth for Ajith and Ajith alone. However, the role of Arun Vijay, Trisha and the little girl was really awesome.

    The only thing I'd like to conclude as a con for the movie is that, I'm seeing the same type of cop stories from GVM again and again. I'd love him to take a movie that doesn't involve the protagonist in a cop role.

    But Yennai Arindhaal? You MUST see it, at least once :)

    Yennai Arindhaal - A Treat for Action Movie Lovers

    The film is simply about Sathyadev - his ambitions, love and his take over gangsters.

    The major loophole of the film is its pre-interval portions. The pre-interval portions of the film are narrated too slow with a sluggish screenplay. But the film takes over in the post-interval portions at a good pace.

    The film has a strong cast, where Ajith Kumar & Arun Vijay had a good scope to perform in the film and they are perfect in their roles. The scenes involving Ajith & Arun Vijay are a treat for the audience. Action scenes are well choreographed by Stunt Silva.

    Overall this is the movie which is a treat for action movie lovers. The film definitely worth your money.

    WEAKNESSES :- * First Half * Few Scenes recalls Gautam's previous ventures. * Many unwanted scenes drags the movie to 189 mins....

    FINAL VERDICT :- * Overall, movie is a good family entertainer, Ajith does his job well. It is just a simple movie. The links between the characters in the movie was very good. This movie will not disappoint Thala fans....
