I think its been 20 years since KV Anand won the national award for cinematography... His father brought a small black and white TV so we (his tenants) could watch the award ceremony liveHe's now given up cinematography but the scenes shot in Myanmar ( was it all just Rangoon ?? ) are the highlights of the movie... the shots are composed so well- they look like poetry by themself..
background research on script and story( SuBa ?? ) , attention to details, casting etc... are all perfect as usual..
All the roles were a cakewalk for Dhanush, not much of a challenge for him, but I was so happy to see Karthik on screen again - what a meaty role for hi... have always beenn his fan since before college days ( donno how many times I've seen Varsham 16)... so delighted to see him at his casanova best.. Amyra suits the role - she's done well but lacks something....dont think she will make any impact in kollywood...
Harris shows his limitations... BGM was not that great (pretty awful ) in some places... songs made up for all that... couldnt hear a word of Dangamari at S2 theyagaraja... the guys in front and back rows were just screaming and whistling through out the Mari-Kalyani episode
Good entertainer.... but still lacked something... its not the length or songs or script... and I dont think I will let that bother me
