Enai Noki Paayum Thota

Very lengthy and hero continuously narrating the story.

To be honest the movie has GVM standard script all over it, but i find that too much songs in the first half of the movie taking the momentum away. Second half is much better but then you can see that due to the movies shooting dates issue the movie was ended in a rush. This is average at best. Acting from Megha Akash doesnt seem good and also Sasikumar's presence is wasted with very little time on it. A one time watch .

Don't know how Menon ditected this movie..slow screen play, tried in Hollywood style. Not upto director previous movies.

The problem is with the lack of proper pattern throughout. We know Gautham Menon has that potential to engage the audience to an outer perspective context but now he just slipped off and brought a dimension-less output. Went for the songs actually but here it did not goes off the mark. Poor visualization of songs and incorrect usage of non-linear pattern are the basic faults that i can feel throughout the movie. Gautham's significant portrayal is the addition of romance in his movie but here he never went up to that expectations. That's why I am done this rating to the movie.

3.5 years since the date of its announcement, this movie finally got to see the light of day. Overcoming various struggles in making and release, the team had managed to sustain the expectation levels high throughout this phase. Whether the movie lives up to it is a big question mark.

Raghu (Dhanush) is an Engineering student at Chennai who falls in love at first sight with actress Lekha (Megha Akash) who comes to his college for a shooting. Surprisingly, Lekha also falls for him since the beginning and they get along. Lekha's guardian Guberan has other plans of making a fortune out of her acting career and is not ready to let her go. When Lekha decides to settle with Raghu, Guberan threatens Raghu's family and she has no other option but to give up her love interest. After 4 years, Lekha calls Raghu and informs him that she and Raghu's estranged brother Thiru (Sasikumar) are in trouble and she needs him to come to Mumbai. What happens at Mumbai and how Raghu manages to solve the crisis is the plot.

For 2.5 hrs, the audience get a claustrophobic attack of getting stuck in Dhanush's mind-voice.While Gautam Vasudev Menon's movies are known for the narration through the protagonist's mind-voice, this one has done it to death! While the first half was bearable because of the songs and the excitement of audience, the second half goes all over the place, lacking content and direction. The director has literally mocked the audience by showing how Dhanush escapes the gun shots because of his belt buckle and a key (?)! This is just one of the too many irking sequences in the movie. Sasikumar as a cop trying to deliver dialogues in English didn't gel too well. Darbuka Siva is the only saving face with his fresh rendering of music and BGM.

The hero keeps saying that he needs to shift from Auto Pilot mode to Beast mode to Death Wish mode. But the audience had been granted with Death Wish, by default!
