Waste of time

Most undeservingly overhyped movie of all time??

This is a must-see and one of the best documentaries - and films - of this year.

It’s fine. It's literally the definition of a fine movie. You’ve seen it before, you know every beat and outcome before the characters even do. Only question is how much escapism you’re looking for.

Ajith.. One of the many actors I have never really connected too. Does this movie change that fact? No!! Probably not!! But is the movie good? Hell yes. Terrorism, politics, romance, subtle comedy and an amazing story line to top it off, Aarambam is a must watch.Starring Ajith, Arya and Nayanthara the film keeps the audience trapped cause let's face it, the three actors did an astounding job.Arya - The whimsical paranoid yet good hearted super genius.Nayanthara - The 'm sexy and I know it.. So not afraid to show it' badass girl who takes the foreground and is into the action sequences (probably even more than Arya) fighting with guns and weaponry. Being a woman, it was exhilarating to see a heroine get down and dirty in a Kollywood movie instead of just standing in the side lines and looking pretty.Ajith - Even though he sometimes looks slightly unfit, he makes up for it double time through his kickass super scary villain-for-a-cause role. Ajith impresses and delivers with superb lines and some brilliant acting skills. Bottomline - Go watch this movie that is sure to blow the box office apart. Kick back, have some fun, eat some popcorn, enjoy a night at the theatre and just Keep It Simple!!

I am a die hard fan of Ajith Since 15 years old.Every movie I saw only for Ajith. Being a die hard fan I can not admire fakely all the crap movies. If you feel this movie is good, am sure after few years you will feel what a utterly movie this is. This all I can write about this movie.My request for all Ajith fans. Don't encourage this kind of movies. Then thala will restrict himself movies like this. some point to say about this movie is: No nuances scenes, no goosebumps scenes,no gripping screenplay.Vishnuwardhan made the movie very simple without any mental effort. My verdict: Don't's keep acting this kind of movie Ajith sir.

Right from the moment the film takes off, it becomes clear that this film is a ride for the star that is Ajith. With his trademark sunglasses- adorned walk that is shown enough times that a wannabe model can take coaching classes from it, this film makes its mission to showcase Ajith. And it does succeed but only in that department while failing miserably in the rest of the departments.AK (Ajith) and Maya (Nayantara) extort Arjun (Arya) to be the computer hacker that every terrorist organization naturally needs. Why he do this and how he does this forms the story.The film opens predictably with a hero intro song and the opening act is intriguing enough. Arya's back story is refreshing but the story is dampened by the over the board and frankly irritating antics of Taapsee who plays his love interest. The film goes on nicely till the interval with a few surprises but nothing extraordinary. Ajith's back story on corruption should have been focused more but all the evidence is found all too conveniently. All this builds up to a flat climax that overstays its welcome.Of the cast, Ajith still oozes charm and style.He delivers his punch- dialogues well. His costume designer definitely deserves praise. Post interval, he gets to show his acting chops which he does well. Arya gets to deliver some very good cheeky one liners and he is content playing second fiddle. Actresses are often short changed in such films and this is no different. Nayantara is just asked to look good (which she does incredibly well) whereas Taapsee is there just so that Arya does not feel left alone. Rana makes an not-so-interesting cameo and the bad guys (Mahesh Manjrekar and Atul Kulkarni) do not make much of an impression. Akshara Gowd and Suman Ranganthan themselves probably don't know why they were part of the film.Production values are very high. style has been Vishnuvardhan's hallmark and he makes sure that this film is shot and edited nicely. The Holi song deserves special praise for its camera-work. Background music and songs are a big letdown with rerecording making lyrics songs difficult to make out.I rate this move 3.0/10. Watch it if you are a die hard fan of Thala but otherwise give it a miss.

Aarambam- A Classy Entertainer with a Racy Script. With a star studded cast and top technicians the expectations were sky high. Firstly, Ajith' terrific screen presence and powerful dialogue delivery, A huge plus.Vishnuvardhan and his writers have worked out a decent screenplay which keeps the audiences hooked,mostly. On the flip-side, Yuvan's BGM a major disappointment. Once the story gets into Revenge Mode, it becomes very PREDICTABLE (this one reason why thumbs down from me) and the viewers get a Tad edgy..The Sequence which happens in Dubai are the Best part of the movie.Personally, this flick would not disappoint an average movie go-er, but if you are a FAN of a Star (Ajith),you might feel a bit disappointed. Nevertheless watch it with family and friends( A Clean movie). Aarambam- King of Opening is Back. But will he sustain?? Only Time will tell.
