Manmadhan Ambu(2010) **
Sincerely some thing is very much wrong with Ulaganayagan.I think he carries a very strong head of not knowing what is needed to make a good entertainer or a commercial hit.I presume he has been flaunted about his skills and realization, now he pulls the directors name to add in his cards just for the sake.Where is Ravikumar in the whole movie.What is his role? . Accepted this is not a bad movie but where are the standards which were conveyed to us.
Mannar,Madhan,Ambu the three make the Manmathan Ambu.Interestingly titled and we get the excitement of the movie in the first fifteen minutes when Ambu ( Trisha ) is suspected by his fiancé Madhan ( Madhavan) who is a businessman.Madhan appoints Mannar ( Kamal ) to spy on Ambu when she leaves for a holiday with her friend Deepa ( Sangeetha ) to let him know about the secret affairs.How this complexity unfolds to a different relationships is Manmathan Ambu.The movie fades away when we get in to the cruise.
Kamal has written screenplay and story.Why is he hesitating to add his name on Direction.Is he too worried about including or is he in the safer bet .Sincerely apart from Madhavan and Sangeetha I didn’t find any thing interesting about the whole movie.Too much of sophisticated stuff which were inserted for no reason.People may praise the song which was pasteurized in reverse imagery but to me it was a painful watch .May be I am biased on this, but frankly speaking complexity in a weak screenplay adds pain.
Madhavan has been a revelation off late.Soi Pollathey and his drunken oneliners are some of scenes which just puts this actor ahead of entire cast of this movie.Madhavan and Sangeetha are at their best in this movie for all the good reasons.Kamal and Trisha ,I couldn’t understand the sympathy turning out to love through a poem.But still do you really have to say any thing about Kamal’s acting.Some how the characters look serious but they pretend to be funny which is annoying except for Madhavan and Sangeetha.All I wanted to ask his ,how did he go for shooting with this screenplay.
Oneliners,Spoof,backmasking humour are all Kamal’s trademark from the beginning.But there was a huge support from the directors like Singitham or KSR ,but I feel in this movie KSR has been holidaying when Kamal was acting.I have totally lost the interest with Kamal being in a movie other than his acting.It would work wonders if Kamal surrenders himself to directors than dictating or poking his interest on the screen.Let the wonders work through his acting not through his scripts.I am tired and so are many of your fans.
