Arrambam (2013)

Simply Perfect

best movie i've ever seen.

Although I seem to have had higher expectations than I thought, the movie is super entertaining.

Actress is magnificent and exudes a hypnotic screen presence in this affecting drama.

A masala thriller flick especially meant for Ajith Kumar fans.Story is about Ashok Kumar played by Ajith, a bomb expert who for reasons unclear explodes public places, works against the law and ropes in a techie to assist him with is criminal activities under threat to the latter's girlfriend's life. The second half of the film though takes a surprising turn of events.Film is just masalas - Dialogue, action, music...don't look for logic as there is deficiency of that in many places. Many things are unexplained-what happens to Ajith's sidekick 'Mango'?How does the protagonist survive after being thrown of a cliff by the villains? How does the protagonist manage to go all the way to Dubai with a guy and girl, kill people, loot a bank and return to India overnight? How do some terrorists kidnap a minster's daughter in Dubai and bring her overnight? How does the protagonist get away in the end after openly revealing who he is? None of these are answered, but that does not make it a bad film. It is quite thrilling, with hardcore dialogues, emotions well expressed by actors, cool stunts and action sequences, and music that is alright.

First half of the movie is the introduction of the characters played by Ajit, Nayan Tara, Arya and Tapsi. The second half reveals the story which is like that of a Shankar movie and there are instances where Ajit speaks like "captain Vijayakant".In the first half of the movie, there is a love story between Arya and Tapsi. It feels completely fake. The stunts by Ajit are very realistic. The action sequences are exiting.Overall, it's a decent one time watch, especially if you are an Ajit fan. Although the music was alright, the first song was completely pointless except for the fact that it makes the Ajit fans in the theater go nuts.

The movie comes with the repeated dialogue of "make it simple" and guess what? That's exactly what the movie is not... nothing is made simple. Everything is exaggerated. I find this movie a total waste of time and money on my part as a movie goer and total waste of great talents such as Ajith, Arya and Nayan. Sad but the true fact is most movies with big talent such as Ajith are solely built around their star power rather than a good story-line. The focus is on making them look more stylish instead of bringing out their potential. I have seen this kind of movies many a times and if you are looking for a truthful verdict, this isn't the movie you would want to spend your money on. The first half of the movie wasn't as intriguing as what the director tried to portray and the 2nd half was so predictable. The so called lovable conversations between Arya and Tapsee does not really seem to be lovable. Nayan was totally wasted in this movie and as much as I acknowledge her talent in acting I would even consider to say this movie as the worst of her career so far. Ajith, what can I say? I just hope that he would make better choices in the future rather than sticking to the same macho-man-wearing-glasses- carrying-gun-in-slow-motion stories.

After Mankatha ajith has come back up with a blockbuster... Ist half is too speed and racy,second half quite quite lags compared to first half but over all the movie is too good. It can be enjoyed by all the audience, I don't know why few social websites are writing their reviews against the move. Yuvan could have done better BGM. Ajith's screen is excellent and dialogue delivery is excellent.Arya,Nayantara have done their bestThe movie is released 500 screens across the TN but getting ticket is too difficultI loved the movie for the fast screenplay and ajith's screen presenceThala Diwali
