A world class performance by Vikram. But the 27 crore question is: will it double-click? Shankar's (yet another) extravaganza has all the vibrant technical brilliance that can make movie goers awestruck. The movie plot of Multiple Personality Disorder, though, taken from either Flora Rheta Schreiber's "Sybil" or more from Sidney Sheldon's "Tell me your dreams" may not click with the masses. When Chandramukhi combines science with black magic to gross more than 67 crores can Anniyan's sheer science 'repeat' that is a thing to wait and watch.
Shankar could have concentrated a little on the nitty witties like 1) when tracing Anniyan's phone number, the Police investigator says to Prakash Raj that all the five complaints have been made and read from the same telephone number; while, we are shown (before the murder of railways meals contractor) that Ambi logs in his complaint from a Internet browsing center in a Railway station 2) the buffalo chasing scene - supposed to be happening at (mid)night has the shadows running with the characters.
Credible performance from all in the cast and special mention to Prakash Raj for his face expression when Ambi please to sentence him in front of the judge. Vivek proves that a leopard cannot change its spots and makes fun of Carnatic music (and himself) which does not gel well. Sabu Cyril's art work is eye-popping. Harris jeyaraj is average here. But Shankar's technicality and (Engineer's mind) makes the songs a feast to watch. Peter Hein's stunts are macho stuff and particularly the Vaido fight is complete magic. All in all an Entertainer. Watch it in Cinemas for the breathtaking camera work and Vikram's performance.
