Why it’s a Weeknight Watch
With a box office flop, it's a mixed bag. Fine if it's on; don't plan your night around it.
Based on critics, audiences, awards, box office and buzz. Details below.Is it for you?
- Who'll love it
- Aimed squarely at anyone drawn to the darker side of the street and people who like their stories with a little heart-flutter. Plenty of moral grey areas to chew on. Fans of A Place in the Sun or The Wild One should feel right at home.
- The mood
- Dark and gritty, warm and romantic.
- The pace
- A big, patient story, at 2 hr 33 min.
- What might put you off
- No age rating on record, so check it first for young kids.
- It's long: 2 hr 33 min.
- It's in Tamil, so expect subtitles (or a dub).
- Skip it if you like your heroes clean-cut.
Three men try to overcome the problems in their lives not realising the impact their efforts are having on the women in their lives.
