Acham Enbadhu Madamaiyada review: Simbu is in top form in this Gautham Menon film http://www.ibtimes.co.in/acham-enba...simbu-top-form-this-gautham-menon-film-703531
ACHCHAM YENBADHU MADAMAIYADA MOVIE REVIEW AYM is about two people in love and the resulting events with a road trip as the backdrop in the first half. And also about how that fun, romantic ride turns into a serious situation for both. Are they ready for it and how they overcome the crisis or do they? The promos made you aware that you are not going to a get another VTV from the magical trio (GVM/ARR/STR) as it looked a little action packed. But even VTV fans will have something to cherish as the first half of the film gives you a windy romance. The best part of AYM is that it has been packed with moments for both the performer and the mass image of Simbu. He sweeps you off your feet with his performance. AYM is another addition to his repertoire. We are told that most scenes that Simbu is involved were shot in a single take but it looks so meticulously shot. That’s where you realize how seasoned actor Simbu is. We hope he gives us more such endearing performances in the future. Manjima has a well-written character and she fits the bill. Her chemistry with Simbu is good and you see their intimacy level growing in due course of their bike trip which is beautifully portrayed. GVM has the option to cut down on the emotions and make the product more edgy, but prefers just to make the whole story a little more real in the middle of all the gun firing (You get to see a lot of them). Dialogues are one of the strong points in the film. Songs which are already chartbusters have been pictured well and are a feast for the eyes and the ears. All the 5 songs are placed in the first half in a span of 1 hour. But you don’t get bored as Dan’s visuals arrest your eyes. Thalli Pogathey looks force fitted but the latter half of the song explains why it is placed at that point. Some of the scenes shown in Idhu Naal look to have been shot long back and Simbu looks totally different and slim. This is a spoilsport in the continuity and also in Thalli Pogathey Simbu looks more beefed up as it was shot late. There is another surprise element in Showkali as the theatrical version has Simbu’s voice instead of ADK. Verdict: AYM is GVM's attempt to give a well-balanced love action drama but it gets commercialized towards pre-climax. Had that also been dealt in GVM style, we might have had an even better product BEHINDWOODS REVIEW BOARD RATING ( 2.75 / 5.0 ) PUBLIC REVIEW BOARD RATING ( 3.5 / 5.0 )
Achcham Yenbathu Madamaiyada-Highly recommended! STR as always is a delight to watch and he holds the film through his intense performance along with Rahman's breezy songs and exemplary original background score. To be precise, the VTV team is back with a bang! The first half of AYM is filled with light, soothing, feel-good romantic moments while towards intermission, the film takes an U-turn and becomes an edge-of-the-seat action thriller. The key to an engaging film is the lead actor. Kudos to Gautham Menon, for bringing back the STR we loved in VTV and he delivers a performance that doesn't miss a beat It’s an excellent return to form for Simbu. Though the actor's physical changes (due to the delayed production) looks odd, he compensates all the flaws with his powerful screen performance and likeability factor. He shares a comfortable chemistry with Manjima that make this film an easy watch. Baba Sehgal is perfect casting. But the film is not without problems. The last 20 minutes of the film was a bit too hard to believe with no logic. We guess that the director wanted to play to the gallery and bring more commercial elements into the narrative to satisfy STR fans. Without a doubt, Achcham Yenbathu Madamaiyada is AR Rahman's best in recent times. The magical musician mesmerizes with his lovely songs while the background score lifts the film to a different level in the second half. Rajeevan's art and Uthara Menon who is the costume designer and stylist deserves special mention. Another interesting aspect of the film are the realistic gun fights and combat action sequences within closed space. The minor hiccups notwithstanding, Achcham Yenbathu Madamaiyada is a charming film with fun and warmth at its heart. Don’t miss it.
