Analysis :
Surya shows distinct differences between
both the characters in looks, dressing and behavior. And he excels in
acting under as visioned by the director. Especially Surya's make over
as Akhilan with traits of Vimalan creeping up post his death, are
absorbing. Kajol tags on well. Vivek is good in his comedy. Isha
Sherwani cameo provided the necessary twist in the film which moved at a
rapid pace, only after her entry. This film will be a milestone for the
entire crew.
Technical values in the special facial scanning led by VFX Supervisor
V. Srinivas Mohan is awesome and path breaking to the Indian Panorama.
Harris Jayaraj grooved well into the slot of the film by rendering
different genre songs for the moods of both the characters. 'Yaaro
Yaaro' by Thamarai sung by Karthik & Priya Himesh is one that is
sure ring in your heart once out of the ambiance.Performance :
Surya is the most dependable star who
could be banked on to carry on the mission till the last frame. He once
again vouches the fact. Surya vs Surya is well enacted aided by
technology and wonderful cinematography. The plot is thick packed with
powerful narration. Songs are well placed and pleasant. Action takes
charge after the first 45 mts of the film. Prior to that, it is just
introduction and development of the love triangle, that takes center
stage. Surya as Akhilan excels when confronted with the death of his
body double. And the ways he tries to lure Kajol amidst the thick of
happenings is also quite interesting. French star Reda Oumouzone has
done his best as a suave hulk in the negative role.
Surya as conjoined twins portrays the best and he can expect to hog limelight at the awards at all levels. Fans are sure to repeatedly visit this film which is a double delight. Maattrraan shall be a landmark to Surya and falls in the not-to-miss genre.

The
story is a thin thread and so is the narration that lacks pace. But the
team make up for the mishaps as the screen play is well set to be
hilarious. The cycle angle will not go well with logic thinkers but it
is pure fun that needs to be thought about. The voice of the cycle was
another disadvantage to this family entertainer. Janani had a party time
on the screen with exquisite modern wear and stylish hair styles.
Srikanth
and Janani do a neat job while Soori and Pandi tickle your bone well.
Janani looked different in her new avatar and she will impress the youth
much with her makeshift image. Kovai Sarala was as usual loud, making one miss out on the melody of comedy. A Venkatesh was his usual self for a brief moment and adds to the fun. The scenes in the climax
when the two friends read out the pages of the heroin's diary to the
hero are truly hilarious. A film worth watching with family, rare in
these days.
As
said earlier, it's old wine in the new bottle. But, the new bottle
formula fortunately worked for Mysskin, who already labelled himself as a
critically acclaimed director. With a perfect mix of commercial
elements, Mugamoodi managed to enthrall scores of audience. Although the
movie shooting was completed in just 105 days, the movie came well. The
music of the Mugamoodi, scored by K, already became a super hit and
they appeared good on the screen too. Sathya's cinematography too worked
wonders for the movie. Hats off to costume designer Gabriella who
worked about six months to bring out the mask, suit and belt for Bruce
Lee.
Jiiva undoubtedly gave his best. Since he was already mastered in Kungfu,
he was perfect as Bruce Lee. Special mention is about debutant actress
Pooja Hegde, who was no way in comparison with contemporary actresses.
She looked gorgeous and performed well. Narain as Dragon gave
outstanding performance. Other actors such as Nassar, Girish Karnad and
Anupama Kumar gave their best.
