24

This review note was written on May 16, 2016 · 

There are movies which have such an impact that you can't forget them for ages. Eg. Mahanadi. There are movies which make you laugh even after years of watching them. Eg. MMKR, Panchathanthiram. There are movies which make you keep reliving the moments again and again, for a week at least, after you have watched, making you go through the plot in your mind. Eg. Pizza, Thupakki. Unfortunately for hardcore Tamil movie goers like me a sci-fi like this one doesn't seem to fit in any of the above. That's where 24 fails.

The plot, story line, cinematography, direction everything is good. If you make a sci-fi, make a sci-fi. Why bring the Tamil masala ingredients into it? That's where 24 fails.

Surya ^ 3 is brilliant. His emotions and actions and body language are fantastic. Saranya is one of the best onscreen mothers. Surya and Saranya interactions are good especially the scene where she explains her story is so beautifully done by both of them. Why a heroine in Samantha? That's where 24 fails.

No scene to recall even as you step out of the theatre. Sorry 24!
