    Another bonanza for Surya !!!!!!!

    k.v Anandh has improved in his part than his previous work! About 1st half: Surya was so cool to see in conjoined twins character.Surya carries his role with ease..His hard work was visible in every frame..the way how they lead day-to-day life even how they get dressed was so detailed..Kajal was so gorgeous ..that Russian spy role was not predictable at-all..Three songs-"Rettai Kathiray","Theeye Theeye","Nani Koni" all are nice..upon my rating : 4.5/5 About 2nd half: after the death of Vimal,the heart transplantation was so realistic..And Akil longing for his brother's death brings out tears..Even though it was crystal clear that their father is the villain,the screenplay was so thrilling and it will tempt us what will happen next..That athletic phenomenon was so shocking.. k.v Anandh has done a lot of research..Handsoff to him..climax is bit lengthy could have been trimmed..Two songs-"Yaro Yaro","Kaal Mulaitha Poovey" both are nice..

    upon my rating :3.5/5 totally :4.5+3.5= 8 + 1(for Surya's performance) = 9/10.......

    worth your money! watch it more than once for Suriya

    Maattrraan ( Brothers ) - I do not know where to start and when to end Because that is the kind of impact it left in me .. The emotions, the contrast characters of the conjoined . their life , their movements and every single thing involving them could not be shown any better by the director KV Anand sir , the director imprints himself in everyone's heart

    the action sequences- There is an action sequence involving both the Surya(s) that u can never forget , I would all the action sequences on the whole but this should definitely be mentioned ..

    the performance capture - It is somewhat obvious at " some places " only if you look very closely , its the first to be used in India , though it is not a full fledged mo cap film..

    The songs - all the songs are " unique " and the songs are so stuck to the screenplay and the content of the movie , you will never get the " off track " feel , should mention rettai kadirae ( growth of the brothers ) , theeyae theeyae and naani koni amazingly taken ..

    performance- every single role is given importance , even those doing very small roles in the film that don't even last for 10 Min's on the whole .. the parents of Surya ( dad - Sachin Khedhekar , MOM - TARA ) have got amazing acting skills , should mention Mrs . Tara no one could've carried out that role that well I feel .. Kajal is so gorgeous, you wouldn't stop gazing at her :D though out the film :) angelic ) as Anjali did complete justice to the role given to her , perfect expressions , very very talented girl :) ...

    Suriya :D :) - man , this guy's definitely gonna be legendary very soon :) such is the kind of skills he has got , If there is one that can perform two different characters with so much ease it would be SURYA AND Only Surya :)

    The story - twists and turns begin right from the first half and continues till the very end . i must say, 1st half of the film goes so fast that you will forget to even blink, second half is crisp , pace and thrilling and the new version is receiving lots of positives, only brainy people will love the 2nd half I loved it obviously , a message is directly untold and indirectly told is hidden in the end ..

    on the whole , according to me , maattrraan is one of Suriya's best film hats off to the hard work, Suriya has taken,Surya touches the heart, he is worth the money he earns , only an immature person would hate the film ..

    RATING - 3.75 / 5 ..

    Verdict----> classic movie, climax cud have been better! can watch more than once for Suriya!

    Maattrraan (U)----------------my Rating : 4/5 VERY GOOD

    Maattrraan (U)----------------my Rating : 4/5 VERY GOOD

    * It is an action thriller which deals with the genetic science....

    * Cast: Surya performance was great as twins and it was different whereas in second half Surya comes back to the single role...Kajal was glamorous and beautiful on the big screen.... * Direction: K.v.anand has taken the film very brilliantly and camera was really good as the visuals were very clear as we are watching an Hollywood movie in both songs and foreign location scenes... * Music and BGM : Harris rocked the songs especially my favorite is "Rendai Thirigae and theeya theya second song" and BGM will vibrate u... * Story : Fantastic thriller ...story starts with a fun package and it gets more disappointment before interval as because the story goes very touching and the second half full of mystery chase... costumes were superb of surya and kajal...

    • NEGATIVE : story is very large runs 2.40mins... - Second half contains more English and thrilling scripts this will leads some not to get understand....As i understood clearly and enjoyed the flick completely....


    If u leave a single scene...u will get completely out of script ...

    Overall It will do great at box office and I enjoyed HOPE U also...

    Maattrraan is an action thriller film portraying conjoined twins. — at Sathyam Cinemas.

    An average movie from K.V Anand.

    Maattrran, released with high expectations could not keep up to the level of K.V Anand or Suriya movies. First half of the movie is engaging and funny with good acting from Surya twins and kajal agarwal. Second half is very lengthy and not interesting as of the first half. Second half fully deals with science and many scenes are not digestible to ordinary men. Fight scenes are just meant for tamil fans and is hard to digest for others.The climax is lengthy and is boring. Climax should have been made better for its long run in theaters. The funny thing in the movie is that Suriya twins are Vijay fans. Performance from Suriya is good and that of Kajal Agarwal is excellent. Other crew had also done well. Overall the movie should have been made better. For me, its the first 'not hit' movie from K.V Anand who had done all his movies brilliantly. Songs are good and matches the situations. The movie is average and its a return for Suriya from the clouds of success back to earth.

    This is new To Tamil Industry

    How and where to begin for this movie, Wel....l this movie is not for the people those who like a masala flick which is having fight sequences and peppy numbers .... this movie is also having all the elements in the first half and not in the second half because of the needed narration for the story....Its very new to Tamil industry the story is fresh , many people may think that this is not possible , but we have to accept such bitter truths that this is much possible in the near future, as well as many people say that this second half of the movie is boring, i don't accept it, because i enjoyed the whole movie for the essence of the story.. sometimes its predictable, some minuses also there but i don't want to point out the minuses because its app laudable effort from the whole team
