Psycho

Good music, Good lighting, Good sets, Good performance by all characters.

Worst screenplay and untolerable and inappropriate untimely dialogues. Script writer has done the maximum damage.

Unwanted or avoidable semi naked scenes which has no relevance to the movie script.

Overall you may watch the movie only if you have enough time to waste.

Movie follows mugamudi and thuparivaaln. He has lost his touch. Worst among the worst. Creator says this is good cinema, and people are forced to accept it. Mysskin. Concentrate on acting. Your acting is better than your direction.

Mysskin is a director I respect and i personally believe his best movie was Anjaathey. Psycho when compared to gutter trash like Ratsasan is an achievement but Mysskin can definitely do better.This movie will be remembered for its exceptional soundtrack by Maestro Isaignani Ilaiyaraaja and visuals by debutante Tanvir Mir.Great production values and set pieces also adds to the positives of the film.Story wise theres' nothing new, a serial killer with the cliched abusive past murders and beheads his victims and gets away 15 times or more in this era of cctvs and well lit streets( everything happens in and around a bustling city in Tamilnadu).A blind but well off Udayanidhi goes after the killer when his fiancee gets abducted.He later joins forces with a paraplegic ex cop, Nithya Menen.Those who watched Eli Roths' Hostel or Jee Woon Kims classic 'I saw the Devil' will feel at home whenever the killers' lair and his apron is shown on screen. Mysskin manages to arrange the proceedings somehow convincingly though the killer is not menacing enough. Aditi Rao Hydri in the final moments lip syncs to some stupid preaching in the voice of a 12 year old and manages to kill all seriousness of the mayhem that happened thus far.And Raaja walks away with the crown playing Thaayin Madiyil.

Psycho, in many ways transcends the limits that Tamil cinema has imposed on many of their 'crime thrillers'. And for that, a moment of appreciation is more than deserving for Mysskin. But for where it should've excelled, it falls flat on its face. When you take a genre of film that is notoriously saturated, at least make sure that your work stands out story wise. Psycho borrows inspiration heavily from many, many western films. And in many ways, Mysskin has created a clone of those crime thrillers that you so love in Hollywood.

All the acting was meh. Nobody's acting particularly stood out. Nithya Menon was the best among the bunch, along with Rajkumar Pitchumani (the psycho), who delivered what was expected of a role like this. Udhayanidhi Stalin was pretty okay, not really dwelling deep into his character.

With the onslaught of crime thrillers in recent times, i really expected this to stand out.

Nothing makes some sense in this movie. A dumb mistake at the start when the female lead says hello to a Ghost, no one was there if you think it's the guy inside the counter she would at least make a Eye contact for a continously made long shot. Bunch of Korean and Hollywood movies with the dexter Mask. The director should make something with all that money invested. What a waste, that girl in wheelchair is the worst thing that movie has. There's nothing remarkable about this movie and the story. I'd say worst Tamil movie I've seen lately. Too bad
