    Masss (U/A) TAMIL ----------- my Rating: ★★★ PREMJI ROCKS

    STRENGTHS:- * Biggest star cast * Comedy scenes were really great * Twists were really good especially

    WEAKNESSES:- * Venkat Prabhu disappoints.... * Story is not much special....

    FINAL VERDICT:- * Overall... movie gets faster in second half...Nayantara needs more screen space... Few disappointing loops.... Premji was good..... Not a family entertainer... Motta Rajendran was not well used..... Fully Copied scenes and story....

    Watchable Family Entertainer

    Plot Line : Things get wrong for a conman when he gets deceived by a ghost.

    Shortly, "Masss" is totally a one man show performance delivered by Suriya. He is simply electrifying throughout the film. It is Suriya who engages the audience till the climax even though the script is half baked.

    But director Venkat Prabhu deserves a applause for trying out a different dimension in Tamil Cinema. Overall, the director could have concentrated more on the screenplay part.

    There are equal number of pros and cons in this film. Suriya's performance, Visuals, Twists and Background score are the major positives of the film. The negative part of the film is illogical scenes and old run of the mill concept which was followed in the second half of the film.

    The content of the film is mainly intended for kids and family audience. Overall, forget the logics and take your family out to theaters. It could be a watchable entertainer for you.

    Not up to level but worth to watch

    Suriya 's acting was good but script was little weak. It could have been better.

    But it doesn't fails to entertain

    A conman and his ghost team!

    I truly don't know what is the original title. 'Mass' or 'Masss' or 'Massu' or 'Massu Engira Masalimani'. Since 'Mangatha' I haven't seen any Venkat Prabhu's films. He has lost his midas touch. His films are used to be youthful and fun, but not anymore. This was a different than his usual theme, but did not deliver. Particularly, I hated the graphics. Those CGI characters ruined the film in the initial part, I thought it was a very cheap thing I ever seen in a big production film. The action sequences were so stupid as well. The comedies were okay, but still it had lots of references of old films. So you can't enjoy them if you are not familiar with the original.

    Surya is a very dedicated actor that you would find in Kollywood today, but the filmmakers are not using that properly. Compared to any other actors, he does many varieties of films. I watched it only for him and nothing else. I appreciate the experimental theme, but they did not get a better screenplay. The storyline looked decent, especially the flashback, but did not develop well. Like what the title hints, it was too much mass which suits better for Tollywood fans. Might be Surya fans or Venkat's would like it, sadly I'm not one. Surely you will have some laughs, other than that this is not good. So skipping it is not a bad option.

    Venkat prabhu tried a family entertainer and found success to some extent.

    Genre: suspense/horror/action

    Story: A conman(suriya) finds that he can see spirits after so close to death in an accident.He uses this power to get money .Finally there comes a plot twist and it makes as revenge drama.why and how is to be watched on big screen.

    Performances: Suriya steals the show.. Tried and succeeded at mannerism for a suspense role and dialogue delivery is near perfect.Rest of the cast has nothing much to do. Premji didn't annoy with his dialogues this time and does a decent comedy liners.Parthiban had some witty comic one liners as well.

    Technicalities: First thing to praise is background score BGM was awesome and yuvan have done it yet again after anjaan.RD Rajasekar has worked some magic to portray suriya as stylish and done wonders in visuals.Editing was near perfect as well. making was decent enough and songs were adequate enough and nothing extra ordinary.

    Verdict: hit or miss?

    Former suits best for the film.
