Just An Brilliant Movie Best Movie In Thriller Jayam Ravi Awesome Arvind Swamy Was Mind Blowing.... Just Watch It Guys !
Few years back, Tamil movies were junk. But now, the time has gone and they had grown up. At once I can say this movie is a Excellent & worth watching. Jeyam Ravi is doing the finest job over here as the hero while Arvind Swamy doing a magnificent role over the villain. Nayanthara is bit small character in here as Mithran's girlfriend & the director should focus to take much more from her. And a word about the director, M. Raja has proved that he can do many things more than re-making old movies. And the musics were very good & synchronized with the movement of the movie. and the finally, I would say that this movie is worth watching. You have to spent 2hours and 37 minutes. but it deserve it.
This would be my first ever reviews/ comments in IMDb, though am a regular user I found this time for this movie I should give some reviews here.
Totally fantastic picturization and a very strong script. Enjoyed the flow how the director taken us from the beginning till the end. A huge break for all the cast and crew of this movie. Mohan Raja proved the best of his talent and Music/ BGM by Hiphop Tamilzha Aadhi is awesome too.
Best movie scene... - When child Sidharth Abhimanyu speaking of the deal for his father to take the blame from Naser. - When Sidharth Abhimanyu got shot by his lover and lying on lap of Jayam Ravi with the last dialog was simply superb.
Worth of every penny!

I was Dumbstruck when I saw this movie at theater. M.Raja has indeed grown a long way from being a 'remake' director to his 'own make' director. The base script is usual one - good vs bad. But the way it has been scripted especially the bad part, deserves standing ovation!
PROS:
Aravind Samy - dashing stylish villain is everyones favorite and he doesn't disappoint you ! This villain is very unique! He didn't lay his hand on the protagonist at all! not even for a single shot. He carried the bad role in a subtle but powerful manner! You will surely fall in love with this character!
Thambi Ramayyah - humour is different from comedy and he is the trump card in this movie who keeps on giving us some enjoyable part with his innocence.
Jayam Ravi - He worked very hard for this movie! It is evident from the word go itself. This is a tailor made role for him and he did exceed the expectations.
Atlast, Raja - scripting a detailed cop thriller with pacey screenplay is very difficult and he succeeds very much here!
Very good movie after Thuppaki which should be watched in theaters purely for its excellence in story telling!
This is a smartly made movie though not a genius film!
Kudos to the whole team! Very happy to watch a very good thriller.

Excellent movie. Enjoyed the thriller and saw a very good tamil film after a long time...Great acting by Arvind and Ravi...Credit should be given to director Raja..Good concept and well narrated with no deviation..Raja should continue to do straight films, even if it takes a year.
Talking of music, just loved "kaadhal cricket" song and the awesome voice of the singer. The last song was also good and peppy. Hope this will change the attitude of most of the tamil directors, as long as the story is good and well narrated, it will be a big hit. This also proves, a movie with unrealistic scenes and characters can be successful and in fact hugely successful movie. Big kudos to the entire Thani Oruvan team. All the best..
