I forgot to mention Uma Riaz. Romba nalla naduchurukkaanga, experience na ennaanu appo thaan purinjudhu. Actually the whole cast has done a very good job, even small ones like that Ghilli Aadhivasi, the college guy etc.

A very well-thought and made movie.

Better known as Dhanus' friend in Aadukalam Casting is very very good, except may be Arulnidhi. Something is wrong with the way he speaks. Guy has a long way to go. Aana sincere-a panni irundhaapla.

Btw, did you feel cheated/disappointed the way things panned out in climax?

YOsichu pAtha athu oru realistic ending thaan. Aana namaloda tamizh cinema mentality atha Ethukka virumbala. That's the truth. As I already mentioned if only it had been a little more dramatic or hard-hitting whatever the ending is we wouldn't feel this way.

And did you guys see the Raam (possible spoiler) connection to the movie or is it just me. [Spoiler]When arulnidhi 1st goes to the father, the father's son comes to deliver something to him, appove I noticed him but dint think much to predict that guy was the thief which actually doesn't do much to the story. But I felt that to be a very Hitchcock-ian way of writing.[Spoiler] If you analyze the script in a linear way it is a very simply thought one, but to create that flow which never makes us notice the randomness is the thing I find very clever.

OFF TOPIC:

Is there a spoiler option here?

[Spoiler]I agree it's kinda realistic. Police wouldn't want to tarnish their name in a case like this. I felt cheated because it's easy for the director to use Karunakaran's mental instability thing to save him. He could have treated the climax in a different way

But I felt that to be a very Hitchcock-ian way of writing.[Spoiler] I got it too. In both cases, I think the directors followed the basic screenplay rule i.e Show all the concerned characters in the first act itself. Also I knew that guy with permanent smirk in his face, is just a red herring. Not sure if that's how Hitchcock did it too, haven't seen any of his films.

If you analyze the script in a linear way it is a very simply thought one, but to create that flow which never makes us notice the randomness is the thing I find very clever. The director did very well in connecting the parallel threads seamlessly. It's a well written script and the execution was perfect.

OFF TOPIC:

Is there a spoiler option here? I've been thinking of suggesting this to RR. Will check with him.

havent seen the movie - but on reading the review on rediff - one thing made me say.. hmmm.
Uma Riyazz the police officer who is pregnant - this character trait is an inspiration from the character of Frances McDormand from that awesome movie Fargo by Coen Brothers -appdinnu therivichikka kadamaipatturukken...

[Fegasderty]

Liked it a lot! one of the better movies of 2011

Dhanush/simbu madhiri yaaravadhu nadichu irundha.. i guess samaya hit aagi irukum.. But seriously arulnidi for selecting and producing this kind of a movie.

Dhanush would have knocked it out of the park. Simbu kooda Osthi-kku badhila idhula nadichirukkalam. Anyway it's too much to expect anything from him

That's a minor twist actually. Wouldn't spoil the film even if you know it.

[PhillipHer]

Happy to see the positive reviews,, indha weekend-la pAkkaradhukku oru padam irukku..

[Big A]

I am thinking of watching it in theater.. trailer was impressive.

[Slonopotam845]

Though that's true butI actually regret putting that spoiler comment now. Personally I hate it when people spoil something for me, Naaney adha pannitten. Sorry boss. From now on ill control this cheap urge.

No worries Kubrick (eppdi koopdurathu ).
