Shiva need not make big effort to bring in comedy in any of his dialog,It comes out very naturally.Every dialogue of him is simple and elegant,but it could be appreciated very well as these words are all very common in our conversations.His Coimbatore slang is damn good.He delivers serious matter in a funny/casual way that makes us laugh.
Greeny shades ,eye-catching paintings in streets combined with superb BGM makes us not to miss a scene.All 4 four situation songs are interesting.
This movie explores all means by which one can go in search for alcohol in a dry day.Finally he gets in the climax.
Club scene where Shiva dances in village style ,in return John Vijay dance in funny disco style
Lekha speaking in childish way is nice.SPB Charan is mix of responsible,silly and at end becomes a hero of past.
Va quarter cutting Good time-pass movie or a refresher for any number of time

WOW! AWESOME,UNIQUE,COOLEST FILM!
I have seen Oram Po, the director duo's first flick and was pretty impressed with their innovative story telling on a local subculture.
This film, takes it a notch above from bringing on the most unique story and characters alive on screen. Right from the title sequence with 2D animation and resounding rock guitars, the style quotient hits a high and sustains it throughout the film. In an industry where films have loud, on your face jokes, this one comes as a surprise with subtle, smart and intelligent comedy. Even the goddess loosing an eye ( wow, who would ever think of its repercussions in the story?!) is so cool and unassuming! And the opening sequence which flows as a seamless single shot, introducing the different characters, who bump in through the film: definitely this film way out of league for any Tamil, rather Indian film! These guys are the future and messiah for a contrived, stuck up film industry. Good job guys! keep up the good work! oh, and its so funny! COMPLETE LAUGH RIOT! and the colors, the art direction, camera work, music!!!I can go on and on... Its a Wonderful, DELIGHTFUL, FILM!

if you get back home from a rough day, wanna just kick back your shoes and chill with a beer, then this film will just be your best buddy and cheer you up! It has a cool, happy existential feel to it and the theme itself proves that only the small, obsessive joys in life make it worthwhile! Its so different from the regular fare in Tamil, it's such a relief! Guess, one reason, some people didn't get it! Its way out there, in a totally different world, from our regular love, friendship, family masala! Its definitely a path breaking film! GUYS, CHECK IT OUT WHEN ITS A BOYS NIGHT OUT WITH SOME BEERS! From Hangover, this will become the new film we can trip on at house parties!
I have watched this film more than 50 times. Best screenplay,
Siva sir screen presence are ultimate
Its a simple tale of 2guys, Suraa and Maarthandan in search of a drink on a dry night in the city of Chennai. But, the way the film has been structured, starting from the different characters involved in different activities in different parts of the city at the same time(6.30pm) and how these fascinating quirky characters come into play through the film is very complex and well structured. It has the style of international movies with picture perfect production design and camera work. Its really delightful to just see each and every frame of the film. The relationship between Suraa and Maarthandan is very tender and comes through a full arch with some sweet performances from the lead cast. Again casting wise, each and every character from Saro, as the dumb school girl to the father son duo played by the same character to the dogs which chase the protagonists are very unique and interesting. Even the Amman cutout, which finally saves the day plays a character! Its rather unfortunate that a lot of people don't seem to get the coolness and intelligence behind such an effort! Hope it doesn't end up as one of those highly underrated, fantastic films!
The makers have the finesse and the film looks like its a love child of Jean-Pierre Jeunet, Guy Ritchie and Tarantino! Wow! It's that awesome!
This trend is healthy and hope to see more such cutting edge, avant garde films in namma Madras!
