Kamal scores a centum in portraying the social activist Poovaragam, he (Kamal) has mastered the lingo and succeeds in producing the desired effect.
The Special Officer Balram Naidu steals the show with his body language and slang, has the audience in splits of laughter ( he doesn’t help to the cause of the story, is a different issue!!). He effortlessly dons the roles with panache. Kamal as an actor, as usual, romps home in style. Special note : The censor bureau has been careful enough to silence the lines about PERIYAR (an atheist, reformer) but the comparison of toilet to the temple, quite carelessly is left untouched !! ok lets not dwell deep into politics !!!?!! From now on when ever Kamal slips, falls or Jumps, don’t get excited there is invariably a dump truck or a pile of sand to save his ass, and our hero would happily walk off unscratched every time whether he falls from a moving train or a two story building, its immaterial!! (Hey Woolverine and Spidy ! watch out !!) Is the CBI, the special task force, the RAW, the army jolly well holidaying in Hawaii ? The chagrin part awaits you, as an utterly lackadaisical Bush (Mr.President of US) resorts to dumb witted slap stick, when an international terrorist with a weapon of mass destruction is on the run !! The director also makes a fool out of ‘THE’ FBI agents.? He badly needs to be taught about the functioning of the agency.!! It is apparent that he is not clear whether to handle the subject on the lines of humor or to treat it solemnly.Ĭoincidences are one too many, much to the dislike of the viewers. At this point you wonder whether the director is demented.Įven the the most insane of Governments wouldn’t let a jester of an officer, (who closely resembles your Shikari Shambhu and looks more like a tinsel cousin of Chacha Chowdry(remember your days of TINKLE !!), in the way he handles the situation. Even bigger profanation is the way in which, an international terrorist is being tracked down. you can do nothing but pity the story teller for his ignorance,when the world’s most deadliest Bio weapon is nonchalantly fidgeted around. You expect something much better from the Kamalahasan stables. Probably the director has comfortably assumed that with a lightening paced screen play the blunders would go unnoticed Unfortunately it doesn’t. With just 10 minutes to interval it wouldn’t take much for a grade 7 to tell that it’s bull-shitting of the highest order. The single largest let down of the film is plausibly the feckless handling of scientific concepts. But it is here where the storyline miserably faulters before it mitigates to comedy of errors.
#DASAVATHARAM REVIEW MOVIE#
Before you recover from the impact of the first shot, the movie scurries into the 21 st century of advanced bio-weaponry.
#DASAVATHARAM REVIEW PLUS#
The music is an added plus as it leaves you enchanted to believe that you have got your moneys worth, The first hour or so is probably the best part of the movie. The film begins on an imposing note, as the flourish of Ravi verman’s camera and Thotta Tharanis art ‘mesmerizing-ly’ brings the 12 th century alive and captures one’s imagination. For those who still have the robes of Hey Ram or the regimentals of Kurudhi Punal on, a word of caution DASAVATHARAM is int the place to be. At a time when we are at peace with the belief that he would only back films with a credible storyline, Kamal resorts to sacrilege of sorts.
Hello people, those who have grown up watching Kamal as the perfectionist, you need some reorientation. With due respect to KAMALHASAN – THE artiste, THE actor, THE Universal Hero !!
