Well after a long wait , finally Ayarathil Oruvan(AO) lands. The landing is not smooth though. AO is different in all aspects. If at all yu ppl are craving for somethin new in Tamil cinema , AO provides you.
This movie has shades of lots of other Hollywood movies but it is wise to keep all your logical thinking aside before yu step into this fantasy adventure.
First half keeps u glued to the screen with KARTHI being the show stealer. We get to see some not so bad graphic sequences along with comedy. The sets erected in the first half are mindblowing and ppl watchin AO for the first time wil certainly love it. Still , many illogical scenes but yet yu all will stay glued to the first half.
First Half - VERY GOOD
Second half is more RAW with lots of GORY scenes. Yu need a strong heart to sit through. With guys of this era, I dont think that must be a problem. PARTHIBAN and REEMA do their part very well. The Chozhan language was a bit difficult to understand. The sets , costumes and the BGM are noteworthy. Towards the end, it is a bit too much to see those Rape scenes and Chozhans being killed.
SECOND HALF - FAIR - Could have been crisp
CLAPS - Selva's script and direction, Karthi , parthiban and reema, Sets , CostumesBOOS - Worst planning and never releasing his movies on time.
VERDICT : Flawful Victory 3/5 .
