Not many tamil movies have as IMDb movie page.Only a few has user reviews also.One such commented/reviewed movie is Anbe Sivam.And Iyarkai definitely deserves to be one of the few tamil movies to be reviewed in IMDb.com.Surprising such a good movie has been shunned by the majority audience.But its good to find that there are people(IMDb reviewers) who still laud such good work.
The movie is adapted from novel "white nights" and it has been excellently indianised to suit our culture.Locales are wonderful too.So all the credits go to director and the story writer.Another version of "white nights" is Hindi movie Saawariya which is not as good as the tamil one.Saawariya's screenplay is not good and lacks the pace.While iyarkai has shown the good harbours in south tamil nadu,Saawariya is shot in man made sets.The plot line is great and the treatment to the characters is also good.Arun kumar's role is short but pivotal.Shyam is lovable and you want the girl to love him.Kutty Radhika takes the right decision in the climax.The dilemma kutty radhika faces is heartbreaking
