HONEST REVIEW
I hyped too much . In my view this film actually was a good practice to make this feels like 96 and yeah they won up to a certain limit in expressing nostalgia , I didn't feel something exciting so I can't say the merit. The negatives includes over duration (3hr ) , the plot is great but the story is lagged , the director failed to make a clear pictured outline of the 1st half , and also he failed to express the intensity of the situations in the story , he failed to express the intense sentiments , romance , college fights etc. in its peak . The performance of pranav, kalyani, darshana and a random guy who speaks hindi was good(good only) . The actor who played the character Antony thadikaran was not up to the mark he also failed in expressing sentiments and the audience can feel it as a drama . I feel the film like an over rated one as I'm also an engineering student who passed all the situations mentioned in it . moving to the end of the film , I didn't feel anything interesting and as an audient I wanted to quit the film before its ending time . The director failed to relate the main character to all the other characters , hence romance , sentiments and college bunks feels like sleepy. YOU CAN'T FIND ANY EXTRA ORDINARY PERFOMANCE FROM THE ACTOR PRANAV AS ALL THE RUMOUR SAYS , HE NOT EVEN HAVE MUCH DIALOGUES NOR EXPRESSIONS. if some other actor like shain nigam played the main role, the character could be able to make some performance.
I could able to relate some sequence to the movie to 'sillinu oru kaadhal' , if you never watched the film 'sillinu oru kadhal' , I highly recommend to watch it .
my rating is 6.3/10 (and its only worth 30% of all the hype)
And kindly respect my review , this might be the honest one you find on the web .
