Selva's experiment has a flawless start - quirky camera angles, razor-sharp dialogues, flawless editing, the ironic 'tv-serial-esque' lighting - nearly everything to warrant the label of a 'masterpiece'. But every single attribute is reversed in the second half, with Yuvan's background music being the only saving aspect. The experimental nature of the writing in the first half slowly devolves into a generic horror/thriller in the second, indulging in the usual kollywood tropes of 'pei-padam'. On the other hand, I can't think of anybody who could have played Ramsay as well as SJ Suryah has done. Man has really outdone himself with that raw performance.
Would have given it a 4/10 if not for the first 30 minutes of pure, unadulterated Selva.
score 6/10
