Finally managed to finish the movie, almost one month after I started watching. There has been so many reviews and research around the movie content. Ithaan un takka nu laam kekkapadaathu. It was a 3 hour long movie and first 40 minutes one sittingla got over. Adutha 2 plus hours paakrathukulla porumaiye poidchi. Evlo thaan forward pananlum kathai nagaravay illa. Ellarum ulaga padam Oscar range ambassador car range nu pugaznthu thallings about the movie. Honestly, I guess, even the double positive of the movie would’ve been negative. Avlo dark. Neo noire, chaaya kadai nair nu laam solitu kodi pudichitu vantha uruttu kattaiyaal adi kudukkapadum. Some reviews had mentioned it as dark comedy!!! Idhelaam comedyaada dei. Unga humour sensela theeya vaikka.
Naalu kadhai. Short stories may be. Adha onna oru andaaala kotti, kindi, kadhaiyaaka try panirukanga. Each one dealing with several of the seven deadly sins and how acceptable they are or they’ve become in our society. Adultery panra wife, whose lover dies during intercourse – porn star of a middle class lady, who is found out by her own son, while watching the movie on 3D along with his friends – godman, who feels specially blessed for he is the only survivor of a tsunami, missing guy who comes back as a trans woman to meet his family, each of them would’ve had a run time of half hour max. Adha mix panni 3 hour movie aakirukanga. They’ve no link till the end where couple of scenes are forced to make an overlap. To top it all, aliens vera. Yes!! You read it right. Alienslaam varuthu. Epdida intha mathirilaam kadhai thonuthu ungaluku nu extra-terrestrial beings laam aachaaryama ila adicha sarakkoda effectla kannu mannu theriyama shoot panirukangalanu therila. Either way, pity those who watched it on theater. Idhula, symbolism, directorial touchu, pinnitaan pedal adichitaaanu aayirathettu comment. Adaigala…padam puriyalaina ipdilam solli escape aaida vendiyathu. Idhula Samantha super acting. Ramya Krishnan life time performance. Vijay sethupathi chanceless nu side comments vera. Kola paniduven rascals. But his portion involving that kid, eagerly awaiting his dad is a lovely heart breaking story of its own. More so because of the kid and his performance but less as a story.
Gils verdict – intha padam edachum channella thappi thavira telecast aana, tv off pannitu, go out and have some fresh air. Adhuvay unmaiyana ragasiyam of life.

Normally Gilsu is very polite and finds something to say even about an awful movie. But this one has been panned mercilessly?? Wow !
