It is not deep, but it is fun to watch. It does have a bit more of an edge to it than other similar films.

If you like to be scared, if you like to laugh, and if you like to learn a thing or two at the movies, this absolutely cannot be missed.

The thing I enjoyed most about the film is the fact that it doesn't shy away from being a super-sized-cliche;

An old-fashioned movie made with new-fashioned finesse.

Story is all about how "A sheep which was used as prey to hunt a wolf finally turns into wolf."Story line may be simple and short but the way its shown is all matters. One more multistarrer movie of this year, Yes., there are three heroes in the film.Maestro:No songs,.Just BGM for complete 2hrs 45mins and there is not even a single frame where you feel bored. Especially the movie first half was completely On-boarded by the great's masterpiece.He is not here to prove anyone, but this film sets an example on how an opportunity can be utilized.A film cannot be successfully just by having Maestro in it. It should the carry the content,sequences.Director has succeeded on satisfying legend's appetite. One doesn't credited as Foreground composer (முன்னணி இசையமைப்பாளர்) until he is Maestro.Cinematographer Balaji V Rangha: There is a saying "A picture is worth a thousand words". In this movie the dialogs are very less because "Each and every frame speaks more than 2 pages".Great job done .Of course you can expect the usual Myskin style camera angles but still he fools us at the end of the scene with a twist.As the story takes place in night Balaji has excelled in places with less light. On the whole brilliance and hard-work has paid off.Sri: Superb, he is using his chances so well which is visible through his performance. His looks and antics have been maintained so well right from the start. Great value addition for the movie. All other supporting cast have helped the director to achieve his product to get the desired height.Everyone are almost new with few are known faces and none looks odd.**Here comes the third hero** Mysskin: Don of the suspense thrillers Reclaims his place with another gutsy product. Undoubtedly his best work with regards to his previous products.Because he cannot be compared to any other directors.Scores on every aspects of the film. *Wow, What a way to begin(please reach theaters on time else u will miss the opening shot) *Fantastic screen play and ultimate narration keeps us engaging till the end.The writing has been so brilliant and effective that comedy is not added but comes within the sequences. *Movie's dialogs are within 15- 20 pages.Still a great amount of intelligence and importance is given, which is proved in first 15 minutes of the movie. *Actor Mysskin has done a splendid performance.During second half watch for a single-shot sequence that will say the rest. *Best part is the end credits, everyone where just standing right in front of the screen.Conclusion: *Cinema is a pure entertainment factor-accepted.This year we've already had great number of Comedy movies released with another bag full is waiting. *But movies like OA is one rare product with subject that many hesitate to take up as it may fail if not executed well. *Nowadays promotion has been mandatory even for a movie with huge star.But Mysskin has made his movie having belief on the moviegoers as there cannot be a better promotion than word-of-mouth. ***Watch this movie only in Theaters. As it's only way we can respect such creators***Effect:For people who hate reading story books or novels, especially suspense thrillers. After watching Mysskin's OA can feel the effect of reading Suspense thriller that too with terrific BG.

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....

This movie is one hell of an unconventional thriller flick that made me watch without flickering. I can't say the reason for this. It could be Mysskin's (Original name: Raja) magic or the sweetness of the Maestro Illayaraja (the other Raja). It is one such movie in which the viewer must not read the plot/storyline for it spoils the thrill. The night shots are such a feast to the eyes and the director's acting was also fine. A special mention to young Sree from Vazhakku enn for he did a fine job too. Apart from these and other few, all the others were new faces. Some actors didn't act that fine which I believe is one flaw in the movie, but the camera guy was intelligent enough to focus at distance (Salute to Mysskin again). The other tiny flaw is few loose dialogs at the start of the movie. The movie features no songs but an excellent BGM that makes you remember Bach's Cello suite or Mozart's serenades. Imo, movies such as these must be the country's official entry to the academy. I'm eagerly waiting for Mysskin's next movie and gonna reserve the movie-ticket first-day first-show.

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.
