Vel Vel Vetrivel....

I know there have been a million reviews on this. But since my topic starved blog needed something to give it life, and I could not find anything to write upon, I thought why not this??

So anyways, Vel is one proper entertainer. It has a proper smart looking hero, and a very cute n gorgeous heroine..(:P) plus a regular item- The mostly dumb and hopeless Villain, who finally seeks his own death. there is nothing really special about the movie, but it can keep you glued to the screen and that in itself is its crown. Surya has got all the 'geth' factor he could possibly have. Asin plays her charming self. I do wonder if she is really like that in nature, because i've noticed that most of her characters have similar characteristics. Ok before this becomes a platform for Asin mania, lemme say she is one of those few actors who can really carry off a role decently without too much skin show. She may not be the best actor, but she surely does not put the role into the gutters like several other barbie dolls who can't emote at all.

The case of the lost twin has been the subject of way too many flicks. What does seem confusing or should I say what a coincidence is that in all the movies the twins find their long lost siblings. How on earth is it possible that out of a population of several millions, the twins always find eacch other???! Am sure the Police could take some useful tips from these people. Atleast we might have less missing people in India.

one redeeming factor is that the twins here don't have any birthmarks or family songs to identify each other with. Phew!! One guy just walks up to the other guys family and causes havoc, finally making them agree that the other guy was adopted and not their own!!

Wait. i think i better stop here. Tamil Cinema never works on logic. I should not be looking at logic here. But I can say that this movie has been more logical that most other commercial films. The movie is worth a watch with good dialogue, good action, nice songs, a regular dose of comedy and of course the usual fun n frolic. All in all a movie to watch with the family, and you won't have any regrets.
