Wow! The film overall shows how perfect a debut star can manage the action scenes. He makes us say "ouch"s and "ooh"s while watching the movie. forget the illogic scenes, ( Thailand underworld, drug mafias, boxing ring in pubs, replacing Buddha's head etc) it is actually foolishness to find errors in such scenes. I agrees cent percent that the movie is a good entertainer and Tony Ja aka Phanom proved himself with his excellent performance. The direction is also flawless and comes up to the mark especially in the fighting scenes. But i just disagrees somebody who argues that Tony Ja is the good than legendary Bruce Lee and Jackie Chan. Both of them did more daredevil stunts than tony did. Let's say Tony Ja is excellent but not the best ever seen.
I have seen this film many times and every time i am watching i am loving it more and more.This film can be considered as one of the best of Indian films. Mohanlal's jayakrishnan is superb. In this film he play's the role of a villager who shows dual personality. This film was the first malayalam film which focused on "split personality" of the hero and later many films were released with the same theme(Usthaad, Runway etc)but did not come upto the mark. The film was made from padmarajan's(Director) novel "udakappola" with slight differences. If you read this book and then watch it you can see the perfection of the picturisation.The film has no boring or low standard comedy scenes which is one of the plus points. don't miss this excellent movie......
