Maan Karate

If I could only give minus stars.

Absolute mockery of boxing. A man with those legs, with that build will be dead meat before the first round. I know it is supposed to be a brain dead movie, I mean so-called comedy movie, but still ending with the hero winning the tournament is just too much.

Except for 1 or 2 places where you get a bit of laughs there is not much rib tickling comedy either.

Siva Karthikeyan's antics don't bring out any laughs at all, at least not for me.

You will only love\like this if you are a school kid, a deadbeat Siva fan or a grown up numb nut

Siva the hero Peter doesn't know boxing is a 'sport' and has no interest in sports or boxing even after reaching finals but he still wins championship without even practicing because he is in Love. I don't want to say anything else.

Maan Karate can be a humour film but its such a disrespect to boxing. Being a sportsman the film is more irritating than entertaining to me. How could it possibly happen? A Person who doesn't know what boxing is to reach finals? He goes to the finalist opponent and begs him to lose to him so that he will love Hansika! WORST SCENE EVER!!!! SO Stupid! How much love one would have had to win a championship? Just because the hero peter wants to screw hansika he wants the real Boxer to lose to him, the guy who doesn't know boxing! Please do not try to blow things by keeping LOVE as a medium my dear Kollywood directors. It's true that you want to show hero to be a funny guy, and to be a funny guy he should not be talented, but still why win Championship? THUMBS DOWN for maan karate even though i like Siva!

i don't think it is a boxing or sports promotional film. peter and his funny movements in boxing was so funny. he shows mann karate ( run for save life) to all of them. i watched some portions of the film again and again. it's worth of watching. haters , f*** you!!!! . but it is not fare because in this film Peter learns karate in last night before the game!!! that was F****** unbelievable. and the climax is similar to M kumaran Son of Mahalakshmi !!!. it's songs are good and the performance of Anirudh was good in the song "open the tasmac". overall it is a good entertainer to watch and worh of money.

Storyline Four IT professionals who are on an outdoor trip meet a hermit inside a jungle, who predicts the future by giving them a leading Tamil newspaper which is going to be printed four months later. Going by the news in the daily, they track down Peter (Siva Karthikeyan) a normal middle-class guy who is supposed to win Rs 20 million in the Tamilnadu boxing championship after four months and sign an agreement. Peter who doesn't know anything about boxing is sponsored by these people who train him for the match. Meanwhile, Peter meets Yazhini (Hansika) in a mall and it is instant love for him and in lighting speed she reciprocates. Finally, Peter has to defeat the menacing Killer Peter(Vamsi) in the finals.

First the movie started with the fun and it was good till the twist for interval. After interval the director had taken the match without logics and finally Peter had won the final because of his love Positives- Due to SK the movie was so entertaining and fun Negatives- rather than SK everything was such a holy crap This movie cannot be seen by the boxing lovers but due to SK it was somehow watchable For SK:8/10 For the crap storyline :5/10 Totally 6/10

Maan Karate is one of the worst movies that i have seen in recent times. Thanks for the DVD, otherwise i would have died in the theater.

Maan Karate is a story of care free guy who doesn't know about Boxing (what a pity, he didn't even heard of boxing) becomes a boxer to get his lover.

This movie is around 3 hours of hell. The acting, story, screenplay everything is dud in the movie. I still didn't understand that how it stormed the box office.

Siva Karthikeyan as usual do his style of carefree guy who roams in town. He has to change this kind of selection (if he seriously thinks about the acting), otherwise in a couple of years he will be out of the industry. He did somewhat justice to the role, but in some scenes he was too irritating.

Hansika Motwani: She once again proved that acting is not her field. She is irritating from the introduction scene to the end.. She was really testing my patience. I don't know why she is getting so many movies despite of her poor acting skills and extremely poor dancing skills..

Anirudh's songs were enjoyable but was actually speed breakers. I think the director used the songs to complete the 150 mins duration. Anirudh's background score was the major highlight of the movie. Songs picturization of the movie was also good in the movie.

This is thirukumaran's failed attempt as a director.

I would rate 1 on 5.

Verdict: Poor show
