About :

Director R T Neason second movie in his career, he tries give a racy and complete family entertainer. The story is good but the way it was presented seems to be very average. There are too many unwanted characters and length almost runs for 3 hrs. Complete logic is missing in many scenes and making us to scrape our heads while watching. All CG scenes were preposterously picturesed. Mohan lal character is perfect fit for the role he has taken. After a very long time, Poornima Bhagyaraj has a very good role and can been seen in many scenes. No doubt Vijay rules throughout the movie.  No work for kajal Agarwal and Soori. Imman BGM adding life and three songs were good especially Kandangi sung by Vijay and Sherya Goshal. For all Vijay fans this movie is a visual treat and throughout they will enjoy. This may not be a great movie, but can watch once because of Vijay and MohanLal Combo Movie !!!

Verdict : May not be a Show stealer for everyone except for Vijay Fans !!!

Rating : 2.5/ 5
