Too much of everything
Sick Product of a Sick System
It is a whirlwind of delight --- attractive actors, stunning couture, spectacular sets and outrageous parties.
Each character in this movie — down to the smallest one — is an individual rather than a type, prone to spontaneous changes of mood and sometimes amusing outbursts of pettiness or ill humor.
the wolf and the lamb or 'OA'.....what a movie...Mysskin is not only a wonderful director but also a good actor..this film has 4 heroes actually..mysskin, isaignani raja sir ,sri and cinematographer br...the entire film plot happens during one night..and the night visuals of chennai are delightful..raja sir's background score will haunt u for many days, especially the bits of violin. .actor sri excelled in the role of a final year med student n carried the film exceptionally well along with myskinn ..this film breaks all stereotypes, has limited but strong characters,no heavy dialogues, no songs, intense background score which conveys the emotions and even the use of silence at some scenes is sheer intelligence...finally this film will b remembered as a path breaking film in tamil cinema..a huge respect for mysskin sir .............DONT MISS THIS GEM !!
One of the amazing movies I have ever seen... The movie makes you to sit and think about what's next and why the wolf is doing all these activities... After watching the movie i was able to realize that we also have the great directors and the great movies in Tamil... I feel bad that this kind of movies are not making much profit and a normal movie with a hero's intro songs and action seq making its profit in box office.... It would have been great if the casting was given a little more care... But no worries the acting done by the main roles expect the CBI officers are really great and no more words to tell this is simply amazing....
Onaiyum Aatukuttiyum -(A Wolf and A Lamb) - A tense,dark,nail biting thriller with a riveting screenplay containing no songs or comedy tracks and in typical Myshkin style. A simple script but shot well entirely without any drags. Sree's acting was simply perfect. The cinematography was stunning, considering the fact that almost the entire movie was shot at night. Above all,the soundtrack by Sir Ilayaraja was great (except for the final sword fight). Watch out for few amazing scenes like the one where Myshkin narrates his story in a single long take. Just don't miss this classic!I wish they make more such movies in Tamil,to compete strongly in World Cinema, instead of doing the same commercial stuff over and over. I again wish that big actors have guts to act in movies like this. Hope audience turn out to watch such films.
When you are shown a city that is glowing even during the nights, artists who perform extra ordinarily well, Illayaraja's symphony, a story that is just like a fairy tale, one must say 'Cant ask for better'. This is what Mysskin's Onaayum Aattukuttiyum is all about.The Story is about a man who is a killer by profession trying to seek a redemption over a night. Simple.Screenplay is so good that it sticks to story and only to the story. Every characters in the movie are given proper detail (even the one that is out of focus). Being a thriller genre, the screenplay moves like a train that goes very fast and also not forgetting to stop by the right stations.Entire film has been shot in Chennai during the nights. The cinematographer must surely given the credit to have visualized the city extremely well.The direction skills of Mysskin is well known from his previous films,he has done a great job as well. The casts including Mysskin and Shri have all lived up to the characters. Interestingly all the characters were given animal-like shades (fox,lamb,tiger,bear etc).Finally you have Illayaraja's soundtracks throughout the entire movie. One thing for sure, Illayaraja is the only person in India who can communicate intense emotions without words.The movie has got no comedy but lots of humor. There is no romance in the movie, but it has got lots of love.At the end of day you will have a feel of experiencing,what is supposed to be world class cinema.Go watch it for Mysskin and Maestro. Highly recommended.
