AYAN MOVIE REVIEW - SKIP IT, this is just another MASALA affair

Fortunately Krish King Nishanth did not have a lot of hopes on the KV ANAND film starring SURYA - AYAN. ( Thanks to three reasons. One - The distribution house. Two - The trailers and. Three - the fact that the director openly declared pre-release that this is a "commercial entertainer" (typical of all other dishonest film makers who make cinema for some arbit imaginary crowd)). So I wasn't really sad when the film got over. I was only slightly disappointed that we, the fans of good honest cinema have lost a POSTER BOY.

Now, since AYAN is a true to form Commercial "ENTERTAINER" (LOL) ,and sticks to all the cliches that exist in tamil film making, lets analyse it element by element

Element ONE :- The pre hero intro scenes and the hero Intro song

Here AYAN is thankfully refreshing. There is a sequence of semi intelligent scenes that establish that the hero is a learned con man and then there is a song that is a good dance number but is not about message to fans. Rather it takes the plot and the intro forward.

Element TWO :- The self obsessed villain, The hero villain meeting scene and the hero villain 'interaction' scenes

One is shocked to watch the man who scripted and depicted one of tamil cinema's most unique villain roles in kana kanden , fall for the cliche in only his second attempt at movie making. Yes, this is the most often repeated and completly stupidly characterised villain that we are watching and it is totally irritating to know that such characters are still written in tamil cinema. The interaction scenes of surya and this fellow are even more predictable and the ONE ON ONE CLIMAX fight is pathetic to say the least.

Element THREE :- The completely and obviously Unnecessary LOU (LOVE) TRACK

Shit. Crap. Puke. WHAT THE FISH? Why the heck is every Indian film maker obsessed with love . Lust rather. Yes, we wrote kamasutra but the writers of kamasutra never asked us to unnecessarily add a lust-track to every film we make. Regardless of whether it has anything to do with the plot or not.

Element FOUR :- The SQUEEZED in songs. (CONVERTING all action, comedy, thriller,horror,psychedelic and arbit movies into MUSICALS)

ishallreview and KRISH KING NISHANTH are completely okay with Such sudden, nothing to do with the story, MUSIC VIDEOS, in movies, PROVIDED they have some really listen-able music and stunning or unique or stunningly unique visuals. But its harris over here - The man who is miserably out of form in just his 28th off film.

Element FIVE - The separate track for the famous comedian.
THANKFULLY, there is nothing like that in this movie. Otherwise we would have had vadivel and padmashree vivek cracking insane un-laughable jokes in the name of humour.

Element SIX - The action scenes and the PUNCH.

This is probably the only area where AYAN stands out. ACTION scenes are brilliantly choreographed and there are no punches and double meaning. But just this doesn't make the movie. Does it??


OVERALL, We lost our POSTER BOY to them. But even in this complete masala film , Our Man has come out with a very NEAT performance. But it is not great enough to demand an entire 100 rupees and 180 minutes to be spent on the movie.


SKIP IT.
