The one Friday B and I took off, I said I have been hearing so much about this movie, I should check it out.

At least Prakash Raj got some emotional scenes - but Jayaram's talents have not been utilized. I thought the mixing of his comedy in a serious situation was good once or twice, but should not have been repeated over and over. The comedy guy (Premji) was funny - but his character goes overboard with the 'craziness' of his character. But the screenplay failed to sustain the momentum and interest which was established in the first half of the movie. The actors who played the role of 4 friends were good - very natural in their job. The climax was artificial - a fabricated twist of an unexpected villain. The darkness bothered me throughout - in a effort to make it realistic, it somehow hinders the viewers and obstructs them from consuming the story/movie.

When it did happen, the rest of the movie failed to me keep the momentum. One could guess right from the beginning that the kidnapped girl is in the same place where the 4 guys land - and the two threads of the story would come together very soon. But very soon, I found myself lost - trying to understand what is happening and who is who - coz all the time the screen was dark and it was too hard for me to understand what is going on. Before I realized I was hooked completely - especially till the part where the 4 guys find themselves completely lost in the middle of nowhere on their way to Hyderabad and struggle to save their lives from the villain and team. Started off refreshing and progressed with a fast pace.
