STORY:
When KOLLYWOOD is try's to give a Action movie it
always ends up in a Mess. Especially when 
Family Directors
like Sundar. C try's to do something like this. The movie starts
in a big way like any big hero's showing Sarath Kumars Arms like
the one in RAMBO or ROCKY IV where they show SILVERSTONE
STALLONE's Arms. After seeing the Arms and the back
ground music they gave for that arm show I decided that this
movie is going to be a Pain for another 2 1/2 Hours. I got my AMURTHANJAN,
TYLENOL right next to me to take that Pain.
Super Hero Sarath Kumar comes in Double action. One
is a Professional Thief who works for another Arnold "Arun
Pandian". He is called as Rishi. The Second Sarath Kumar is
a kind of Funky guy. He works for a Seyd (Madhan Babu). His
primary job is to get back PAWN goods if the payment are not made
at the correct time. I think this is the only movie where Double
action has been handled in such a bad way. The person with a Tooth
Pick is called as RISHI and the person without Tooth
Pick is called as VELU, Its kind of Crazy where the director has
left us to guess who is RISHI and who is Velu.
Ok coming to the story Rishi happens to see a Murder committed by
the local Politician Devan. He gets the computer Floppy
(1.44 MB) from the girl who was killed and he escapes
from the place. From that point Devan wants to kill Sarath Kumar
and he send Adiyal's All over to kill him. Meanwhile the Villans
eyes falls on the Other Sarath Kumar who is a Poor guy. MEENA
gets introduced as a dream girl who works in a shop. She
always dreams about a Guy and when she meets SARATH she thinks
that Sarath is that Dream guy. When ever Sarath Kumar is the hero
always Heroines Dream about him right. We are seeing this from
MGR period. Only heroines dream about Hero's. As usual in any
Sarah's movie dream song must be in Switzerland or Singapore. So
Meena and Sarath sings in Switzerland downtown, Snow filled
Mountains with foreign Chicks etc etc. I don't know who the hell
wants to see a Dance in Switzerland downtown and make it as
irritating as possible. I think it would had been nice if they
took the Dance in SAIDAPET DOWNTOWN rather than
in Switzerland. One more thing the was very much irritating was MEENA's
THOPAI. P.S. (We will discuss about MEENA's Thopai after a while)
Meanwhile the other Sarath (RISHI) falls in Love with
SANGAVI who is a Dancer/ Singer. Basically 
she is like
Jennifer Lopez or Madonna. The Kodumai is she sings for a song
and Dances too in a Disco. Then the Villans find Sarath there and
they shoots him. In this process SANGAVI looses her eyes. Sarath
takes the responsibility and falls in Love with her. This story
goes like this and the other story goes as Sarath loves MEENA. So
there are Two stories going side by side and no one can identify
who is FIRST SARATH and who is SECOND SARATH. Meanwhile Prakash
Raj gets introduced as a Police Officer. RISHI who worked for
ARUN PANDIAN resigns his Job like we consultants resign from
ANDERSON Consulting. So ARUN PANDIAYAN gets pissed off and aims
to Kill him. This Story starts as a separate track. That is ARUN
PANDIYAN sets his own ADIYALS to kill SARATH.
The director Mixes all the FOUR Stories together to finish the
story. Its a difficult task right. TWO similar Hero's,
TWO heroines, Four Villains and a Police officer, Forgot
to say there is one comedian too. In the process of uniting all
these Piece of Story one more character gets introduced in the
picture. He is SSR who is the Chief Minister. We all know what
will happen now. Everyone takes GUN in their hands like RAMBO
movie climax. Everyone Shoots and everyone. The last 15 minutes
of movie is full of Gun Sounds and Bomb Sounds. Sarath Kumar with
Touch pick looses his Tooth Pick and there is a confusion who is
which SARATH and at last the movie ends as the Villains are
killed and the Chief minister is saved and as usual out hero goes
to Switzerland to sing duets with Heroine's.
SARATH
KUMAR:
I don't know what to say. After "MAYEE" which was a
village based one here comes "RISHI" which is Gun Based
movie. Normally he comes in Double action so that there will be
two heroines in the movie. In his previous double action movies
one will be an old Guy who will be the NATAMMAI of that village
who will have a weird hairstyle like WENDYS CHILLY
CHICKEN BURGER. The other guy will be his 
foster son or
something like that who will be a Sad guy and who will be normal.
So we can easily identify the difference between both of them.
But in this movie the only difference is tooth Pick. The one with
Tooth pick is Big Sarath and the Other without Tooth Pick is
Small Sarath. How can one take this. This is something like that "ENGA
VITTU PILLAI" MGR where the "CITY MGR" eats in the
hotel and the "VILLAGE MGR" pays the bill. Ha Ha Ha Ha
Ha Ha Ha Ha Ha Ha Ha Ha. Other than that the same old
Irritating action like showing BODY, Doing Exercise,
Dream Song in Switzerland which no creature in the world Cares
for.
"MADIPAZAGI"
MEENA & SANGAVI:
The only improvement in MEENA is her MADIPU has become
big ( EXTRA EXTRA EXTRA LARGER). Obviously that is her
Specialty and which will make the Tamil Mass to follow her. But
fortunately her THOPAI has become very very very Big.
It was obvious in the Dance sequence in Switzerland. MEENA who is
known for her homely looks and who looks very good in her saree
comes in Modern Dress which never suited her. Already she came in
Modern dress in "NAAM IRUVAR NAMAKU IRUVAR" and
everyone hated her in that movie. Then she became Homely
figure and people started to like her. Since she came in Saree
her TOPAI was not visible for a long time. I don't know who
designed Costume for her. They made sure that at least 4 Inches
are visible throughout the movie which looked really odd. Meena
take care of your thopai. But a GOOD THOPAI SHOW!!!!
SANGAVI is getting better these days. Don't know how.

COMMENTS:
I think KOLLYWOOD must stop taking action movies and they have to
rather concentrate on taking NATAMMAI movies and Love stories.
Projecting a KOLLYWOOD hero like ARNOLD SHIVAJINAGAR is
too much. These days even Hollywood is trying to do something
different as people are fed up with Action. My best advice to
directors will be let them try to take a Ski-FY movie like
TERMINATOR or JURASSIC PARK etc etc. That will be a major fun for
us. But what will happen to heroines like MEENA in SKI FY movies.
They cannot come and dance like Dinosaur. I think Kousalya will
be the right fit for those movies as she can come like Dinosaur
and do a Jurassic Park Dance. All together the movie is a Thrash.
No story line, No good songs nothing is special except forMEENA's
THOPAI and TIRE. If you want to watch her TOPAI and TIRE then its
a good movie to watch. Other than that nothing special and it
gets only 25/100

From : Shyam, New York City, NY
Guys,
Looks like the main drawback in this movie is that people would
have got confused between the two saraths and the film did not
have much fun. But if Director Sundar C looked on the lines of
differentiating two Saraths- as on with and one without Meesai(mustache)
as in SuperStar's Thillimulli it would havebeen really
fun for us to review great! What do u think? Then the
SaidapetArnold Sarath wud have become Saidapet Vaiyaapuri or
Ussssssssss VicePresident SarathKumar..(as no one can compete
Abbas in the Presidency EVER)
