But that does not affect the movie in anyway and can be easily overlooked. A Small negative would be that the premise about the Hero could have been shortened a bit, maybe less 15 minutes, his love interest for his wife was totally unwarranted, looks like Kamal's personal choice than anything else. How a Mother would handle would be different from what a Mother with power would handle a situation. At the end when Kamal explains what would happen if the tables were turned, it is a right explanation. What happened was a accident, but in a perfect world you could come out with the truth and people will look at 2 sides of a coin and take the right judgment, but we are not in a perfect world. Frame by frame the movie passes with wonderful continuity and even when it ends, it just does not snap, it is a thorough and clear closure, which says a lot about the director It's easy for movies such as this to be absurdly stupid and leave many plot holes for the audience to explore but the director covers all plot syncs and when you backtrack what went on, you can easily connect the dots and agree to the fact though the hero is selfish, you have to be selfish at some times to survive in this world. Even though ethically what they are doing are wrong, you understand what will happen if only you were truthful at all times, and you totally buy that. That's a exceptional win-win for the actors in the movie. In a intriguing movie like this, you have to feel for the characters and you really do. The plot twists were great and just when you thought you know everything the movie creeps with something new, i really loved that. The screenplay was perfect, the actors were placed in the right place at right time. Although i know the movie was long, i never felt bored at any point, a feel that i get from a Tarantino movie.
Everyone has been given a fair share of the screen space and they have given a scintillating act every time.
Having said that, it would be easy for the director to be tempted to keep Kamal in all frames and make the movie a success, but not to be. Needless to say anything about Kamal Hassan, he makes everything looks so easy and so realistic, he has always been best in any role that he plays and even here he just steals the show. Though a simple concept of saving the family, the actors have brought their A-game, fantastic performances from everyone. Leave aside all those controversies, from the premise till the end, this is one movie that paces really well. Kadhalaku Mariydhai, Nanban are prime example. Yes people might say it is hit only because of a remake, but i would strongly disagree, it is a delight to watch because the remake is done just right. But now that you have a frame of reference, doing a remake of a successful movie is very difficult as you have cater to the demographic who know what the movie is about. For all the people who say the original movie was better, of course you would believe that as this concept and movie did not exist before the original script so you will like it more. In fact i believe making a remake is a difficult job. Yes it is remake, but that doesn't mean it's any lesser.
