That Karthik
Subbaraj is a discerning filmmaker capable of churning out plots that are not
only thought provoking but also message-bearing is only too well known! This time
he has come up with a silent thriller set against a perfect backdrop of a
couple of youngsters all of whom are mute! Prabhu Deva’s cameo, appearing only
in the latter half of the movie springs up a surprise indeed, needless to
mention, he has come up with possibly his career’s best performance so far!
A bunch of youngsters
are busy partying celebrating the anniversary of the shutting down of a
corporal giant, Corporate Earth that was instrumental is gambling with the
lives of the people in the village nearby through mercury!
The youngsters
take a drive out through the dark of the night, eventually causing an accident
of which they are oblivious of!
Soon, the
get a glimpse of an injured man whom they presume to be dead! With a view to
save their skin, they try to dispose the ‘body’ but then, there is a twist to
the tale at this point and they are all forced to flee for their lives as the ‘dead
man’ starts walking!
The film’s
pace appears a bit slow in the initial portions but not before long, it gains
momentum that never gets reduced!
Kunal Rajan’s
sound design, Santhosh Narayanan’s background score and the breathtaking
photography of S.Thiru as well as the slick editing of Vivek Harshan add pep to
the proceedings!
The young
filmmaker deserves a pat on his back for taking up such a contemporary theme
and executing it in an effective manner!
