Saamy Square

I expect more.. Vikram and bobi simha's acting is good Songs are waste

Full Of Headache Songs Was Not Good Villain Over Action Too Over

What's wrong with Vikram these days? His choices of films since the smash blockbuster ANNIYAN have all sank without a trace or failed to make impressions. We know he's a fantastic performer, but why he is one of the verstaile few who continues to make misfires than strike gold?

The latest being this atrocious sequel, SAAMY SQUARE. Directed by Hari no less. The man who churned out more SINGAM series of films cranked up with 10 times the decibels at high speed, you'd think the original director, who paved way to one of the Masala greats of 2003, would do the same for the sequel.

Nope. Cracks are visible. First the recap of SAAMY, Trisha, who was signed on to reprise her role, eventually called it quits and backed out of the sequel (first smart move she did.) Result? Cast that Aishwarya Rajesh and digitally insert her in the key scenes from SAAMY, resulting in RETCONNING the film. Course, you can't fool the TN audience (Bollywood audience maybe.)

Next up, Bobby Simha as Perumal Pitchai's son (Kota Srinivasa Rao in the memorable original.) Result? More gruff, constipated expressions and higher decibels and less take on performance.

Ok so leaving that, how about the foot-tapping numbers by HARRIS JAYARAJ? Earlier he too was signed on for the sequel, but come launch time, DEVI SRI PRASAD replaced him. Result? Not even a single good song.

The story? What story? Oh you mean the story where Aarusaamy gets killed in the first half, then his next of kin (also played by Vikram) who works as an IAS officer in Delhi, when barraged into an injured policewala becomes "posessed" by Aarusaamy's ghost of rage's past and begins his "Jaisa Baap, waisa Beta" rampage? Yeah that's the story more or less. Oh and Keerthy Suresh and Soori are in this one too but they're more nuisances and add zero value.

Vikram continues his misfires in film selection while stalwarts like Kamal Haasan, who's shown his life/breath of Cinema deserve more applauise and acclaim that they should. Instead the TN audience continues to be fooled and give these stupid masalas a run for their money.

It's an OK movie, but not as good as the first. Nothing memorable. Story is somewhat similar to the first - police hunting down gang leader. Good enough as a pastime.

Heroine, no match to Trisha. Comedian, no match to Vivek.

Vikram is a bit out of shape, but it's impossible for a 52 year old man to look like a 28 year old. Passable as someone in late 30s but definitely not 28.

Introduction was not good enough for vikaram, flash back of father vikaram's story was not touching at all.

Love scenes were boring, no scenes were attractive to watch, songs are not good at all.

Action scenes was very nice, as usual vikaram's action scenes are one of the best.

Climax was expected and no twist and turn in the movie at all. Just action and firing at each other.

Combination of scene of Vikaram and Bobby could have been much more better.
