Surya in Mass's

[Chikatiloan]

Bingo. That's exactly my point too. VP has tried many things and ended up doing nothing.

And the comparison to Apoorva Sahodharargal is inevitable. The flashback scene reminded me of AS flashback. But that said, the flashback was one portion of the film which was good. Also the 'Piravi' song.

+1..Surya wasting his golden period age between 35-45..
He has perfect looks,physique and producers-distributors who were their relations and hot in tamilnadu right now who can sale his movies in big way..All he need to do is select good scripts and deliver..
For me Masss is as bad as Anjaan..We didnt expect classic movie but clean entertainer,atleast 50%..
One by one the directors are fading out after promising start and delivering few hits..VP is next..

I thought Anjaan was an okay movie and Mass is only slightly better. I liked Sakthi. His dress and mannerism was stylish to watch. Premji still annoys the hell out of me. The movie dragged on for way too long. Needed a better screenplay. Also, Tamil Cinema really needs to up its CGI.

Tamil Cinema really needs to up its CGI.

Agree with the period , suriya needs to be alert and pick up some good scripts, this is the time to score...he has the channel(distributors/producers) on his side

[arulraj]

Masss is not a VPs sixer it is surya's run out.... Pathetic movie.... Anjaan is far better....

[A.ANAND]

Ithila periya comedy..satyraj dialogue solla mathiri 'antha kolanthaye neengathan sir'than nyabagam varuthu..haha

Whenever there is a biggie in town, all eyes would be on its box office performance. Likewise with Massu, the latest Suriya - Venkat Prabhu 'Sixer', fans are very eager to know how the movie has fared around Tamil Nadu.

While from Chennai city, the film is estimated to have grossed around 1.84 crores from 381 packed weekend shows, the gross from around TN is reported to be close to 18 crores. This year, the other big opening weekend performers have been I, Yennai Arindhaal and Kanchana 2, while films like Anegan and Kaaki Sattai have also done very well.

We have to see how Massu sustains in the weekdays. The word of mouth is pretty positive, and we also hear that the team is planning to ramp up on the promotions to bring in more family audiences to theaters.

'Masss' Movie Review Round-up: Critics Give Thumbs up to 'Massu Engira Masilamani'

http://www.ibtimes.co.in/masss-movie...ilamani-634157

Suriya's "Masss" aka "'Massu Engira Masilamani" has opened to positive reviews from audience and critics.

The Tamil movie has won rich laurels for the thrilling elements in "Masss". And, critics have pointed out director Venkat Prabhu's ability to aptly mix all the commercial elements to make it a pure entertainer.

"Masss", which features Nayanthara and Pranitha in the female lead roles, has been appreciated for its technical values too. The story of the movie is about a petty thief, Massu, getting supernatural powers and befriending ghosts. What happens when a spirit called Shakthi, played by Suriya, starts using him forms the crux of the story. Below, we bring you the critics' reviews:

Times of India Reviews: The film lacks the raciness of "Biriyani" or "Mankatha", but there is enough inventivesness and joie de vivre to the scenes to keep us entertained.

The Hindu Reviews: "Massu" could have been a visionary "mass" movie.. You have to watch the scene that references Engeyum Eppodhum. It's a madly inventive bit, and it made me imagine what it would be like if characters from a particular film kept drifting into other films, like ghosts.

IBTIMES Reviews: When you watch the film, one thing obvious throughout the film is the effort taken by the director to make his movie a watchable one for audience of all age groups. It has romance, some spooky elements, comedy, witty one-liners, action, songs and dance. The director has also given a serious attempt to make his characters look real and maintain their identity till the end.

Behindwood Reviews: Suriya carries the movie on his strong shoulders and the kind of energy and youthful charm that he exudes is incredible. Masss is definitely an addition to his list of engaging films as he performs, emotes, dances, fights and romances with the ease of the pro, that he is. Venkat Prabhu seems to have gelled well with Suriya, and it shows on screen. To experience more on what Suriya has done in the film, just head to a theater nearby. We aren't writing anything more about his role!

Indiaglitz Reviews: Suriya's characterization as Masss the hero and as a Srilankan Tamilian is commendable, as with all of VP's movies, he brings out the best out of his heroes. Suriya's dialogue delivery and screen presence catapults the movie forward.

Sify Reviews: "Massu Engira Maasilamani" is a no-holds barred entertainer with all essential ingredients. There are twists and turns galore. Suriya sporting a ponytail as the Sri Lankan Tamil living in Canada, is the highlight of the film. He comes in at the interval point and steals the show. Nayanthara has a brief romantic track with Maasilamani while Pranitha is Sakthi's pair in the flashback.
