Isaignani Ilaiyaraja avargal, after this movie: Naan sivanenu dhaanepoiki'irundhen.... yaar vambu thumbkkaachu ponaena? Gouravam gouravam nu yen gouravathiye narradichteengle da! Daaai! Nee yendha JILLA'vla irundhalum seri. On usuru yen kaila dhaan-di'yei! Yen kaila dhaan. About the movie: Screenplay Masterclass. I have NOT seen anything written like this in Tamil cinema before. Any details about the plot may potentially reveal spoilers so I'll refrain from doing so. Vijay Sethupathi and Anurag Kashyap were GREAT (minus the lip-sync) along with the secondary characters. Any actor could have played these roles, from the Nassers to the SJ Suryas; but the screen presence that these two have elevates the scenes and the brand of the movie that will make people buy the tickets; and rightfully so - because a film like this deserves to be seen by many. But to put the actors ABOVE the script and the screenplay would be blasphemous. VJS will likely get over-credited for this movie and that's fine as long the writing gets the most props for this film. It would be an injustice otherwise. Is everything a 100% perfect? No. But the brilliance that the writing has demonstrated overshadows that things that didn't work for me along with a couple of the casting choices didn't have any impact on the plot. Could have been anybody, and folks who were chosen didn't add to the screen presence either. However this is not the movie to nitpick on. Go in blank, sit back and watch things unfold. You have not seen anything like this before. If you're a cinema lover you're in for a special treat with the screenplay.

What a screenplay.Keeps you wondering and guessing and then the gut punch in the end. VJS is just a class act. Reminded me of his breakthrough year. Extremely violent in parts....
