Raw and Rusty epic that will be a cult classic
There has been several movies about fishermen community, the slum area and the people whose lives dwell within them, the ganster and the associated politics. But what makes this movie so special is the writing - the grey shades of each and every character is highlighted at the right moment, their low and high points, intertwining plots which affects each other's lives, especially the lead character - Anbu. This qualifies the basic requirement to be an epic.VadaChennai is no less than an epic in making. While each and every person played their part well, it is quiet hard to single out one. But, to have a conclusion, the script is the king, the queen, the everything. No one outplayed their role and this gave the other characters the much needed space, in order to let their character root well into the plot.
The screenplay make you feel like a salad stuffed inside a sandwich, but has enough spices that makes the outcome urging us to get one more.
Santhosh Narayanan's background score, kept the mood of the film throughout the runtime. The long take shots, aerial view glide and the flight sequences were choreographed well and was captured excellently by Velraj.
This epic will surely turn out to be a cult classic, just like Pudupettai and Thevar Magan. Vetrimaaran - Black pearl of Thamizh Cinema!
score 9/10
