The story is not new or unique. It's the centuries old Robinhood story, retold in the eighties. I'm wondering about the motive of the director for showing this movie to happen in 1987. Perhaps the backlash he would have to face from politicians of the ruling parties. There are a lot of loop holes and inconsistencies in this movie. But we can't expect logic in the movie of a mass hero like Suriya. So forget about the loop holes. Suriya has acted perfectly well. This story doesn't require a heroine. So a heroine for heroine's sake. I've given 7 stars because this movie is an entertainer. If you want to pass 2 and odd hours without worrying about logic, plot, etc., this is your movie. This will definitely entertain you. One time watchable masala movie.
