The greatest movie ever made..!

Perfect cast and a good story

Fun premise, good actors, bad writing. This film seemed to have potential at the beginning but it quickly devolves into a trite action film. Ultimately it's very boring.

Story: It's very simple but honestly that is fine.

The movies' description upfront is a bit misleading. Although the crux is that the hero(Saketram's) wife getting raped and killed after which he has been misled that the backbone of these clashes was Gandhiji.. the essential CRUX was that it Describes " how the STANCE OF SAKET RAM(KAMAL HASSAN) changes when he meets the Person called GANDHI and this being evident to the Hindu extreme group send out Godse TO KILL GANDHI FOR WHICH KAMAL WAS SENT INITIALLY" we can say they used his depression to their advantage.. on the whole it Actually MAGNIFIES the image of Gandhi and not diminishes (As claimed by many during its release) we have missed celebrating a really great movie from a CONNOISSEUR of acting. IF possible please change the description at least now so that people are guided well.

Best movie and requires intelligent audiences!! Hard hitting storyline!! Great script, screenplay, direction and cast!! Of course the legend himself has performed very well. Mind blowing music by the maestro illaiyaraja!! Truly depicts the condition of the country just before and after independence!! Certain dialogues are very sensible and heart touching in many situations!! Over all it is one of the best movies from kamal and kollywood!! He is the only hero who is multi talented and can carry himself very well!! i started watching the movie at 9p.m and i was struck in my seat till the movie ends!! It is a must watch movie!!

I would of given this film a zero out of ten, but i will give it a two. Reason One is that Shah Rukh Khan appears in the film, which is not really a reason. Last Point is that Rani Appears in this film and does a smooch with Kamal. I Love Rani very much and have a respect that she is a great actress. Which is why i didn't enjoy her in this movie kissing Kamal, but its no big deal. Anyway enough of the bedroom scenes that made this film noticeable, lets actually talk about this film. Is it good or bad, I think its a completely rubbish movie that made me yawn. Me being a Fantastic critic, you can see my other 250+ review's by clicking on my name, I have great taste. The movie is not entertaining is one thing and if this is suppose to be hard hitting cinema, why is there no morale in this movie. Its a biased movie thats not a true story and it stinks. Watching Kamal kissing these actresses makes me sick, Man cant kiss properly anyway.

An excellent work by Padmasree KamalHasan! No:1 performance by Kamal proves once again , he is the best actor in the whole globe! The movie is a tribute to the society. Very well pictured.The movie is moving with slow pace through out. Though at times we get the feeling that its gonna pace up, but it still moves in slow pace which might have disappointed some viewers and hence the movie couldn't do well in box office!I think the background music ram .. ram.. hey hey ram ram.. should have been played through out the movie which would have made this more thrilling!Anyways this is a masterpiece! Kamal,RaniMukherji, Shahrukh all done a good job!Cijo Thomas
