Shankar is my favorite film maker. His movies have speed, tightly woven script. His movies are frame by frame perfect. He hits at corrupt system hard with varying backdrops.
This one too hits at system. But the treatment is diff from all his other movies. Acting is extremely good. Sharp camera work which is the trademark of Shankar is terrific in this movie too.
I am not in the habit of disclosing story in my reviews. So I would say that story is very different and is not quite common. Movie has some very light resemblance to his own old creation Hindustani(Kamal Hasan) where he uses some old Indian traditional art to tackle corruption. In this movie too he uses some thing which is part of very old Indian culture.
Movie has suspense which keeps audience at the edge of their seats.
Thank you Shankar for these movies. May god give you unlimited energy and age and you keep making terrific movies. Eagerly waiting for Amitabh, Rajnikanth and Kamal Hasan in single movie together.

This is a film that should, sorry will, change the face of Tamil cinema forever. It is amazing, amusing and astounding to watch and her and anyone who says different may need to watch the film again properly and look at the hard work, groundbreaking(for Tamil cinema)visuals, and fantastic songs that is in this film. It is watchable enough for VIKRAM'S performance alone, but Vivek's hilarious comedy and one-liners, Harris Jeyraj's great songs and amazing sets and location make this film a must-see for all Tamil cinema lovers. The highlight of the film is the last 23 minutes, these minutes alone should entice even a cinema goer not a fan of VIKRAM or Shankar to go and see the film at least once more. On the whole ANNIYAN is three words Amazing, Breathtaking and VIKRAM.
Anniyan the big movie of this year is definitely a worth for money.This time "shankar" did a excellent job."Vikram as ambi , remo & anniyan " three characters in which ambi dominates the all.Multiple personality disorder which was the movies base is new to Indian film industry.All credit goes to "vikram" ,he did a noteworthy performance."Satha" as "nandhini" did a fare job."Vivek & Prakashraj" do did a commendable job.Music by "harris jayaraj" is always a pleasant for ears.This time carnatic based songs Ayyangaru veetu azhage in which "hariharan & harini" mesmerize the people by their voice.Shankars message is Indians need more self discipline in to make India a super power.Must see film for all audience. Don't Miss it.
My experiences with Bollywood movies are quite good. Although I only watched the ones that had a higher rating. So it's normal that they are good.
This movie is somewhat different from the other movies I've watched. Those were more comedy's. This movie also his a comedy side. But it's much more than that. It's much more complex than a comedy. The other personality's from Ambi are very interesting. Anniyan and Remo. Anniyan is his dark side and Remo his romantic side. I won't tell you any more. Because if you like to see something different from India watch this.
Good luck with finding it! I'm lucky I had the opportunity to watch this movie.

Yeah it's an excellent movie.Shankar always do a great job.He is ,without no doubt the spiel berg of India. Vikram's best film of all time. one of the best films ever made in world cinema. Complete entertainer. if it was made in Hollywood it would have rcvd at least 4 Oscars 1.best actor 2.best action 3.best direction 4.best screen play
all directors must see this movie to study about how to direct a good entertainer.no flaws at all.3 hours of pure entertainment. the only drawback of this films is the actress i didn't like her. i love shankar movie.none of his films has failed in box office to say clearly they were very huge hits.
