"Singam" , this name itself got me excited as my son Vihaan is a LEO and it so happened that his favourite lullaby happened to be "The Lion Sleeps Tonight" from the movie "The Lion King". And after seeing Surya in the movie stills and trailers , being an ardent surya fan.. will i give the movie a miss ? Also i was super excited as this was my kutty singam's first movie .
Now to the review... Singam is a total masala ,family entertainer. It starts with the setting as a backdrop of a village and Surya's diction in tamizh language enhances the role played by him -Durai Singam, the dedicated but also wise police officer .Why i say wise is because he avoids the unnecessary false cases and avoidable battles on petty issues very well. And delivers the heroic punch dialogues very well. You feel some excitement inside you when he gives some physical punches too. Surya has some charisma onscreen for sure else i don't know how he can strike such good chemistry with all his heroines. As for this movie, Anushka
fits in perfectly as the Hero's lady love . Only thing i wish , is to see tamizh cinema change the stereo typing of its heroines from just singing to dancing. Anushka did some daring heroine oriented subjects in telugu and i hope to see that she should get a bit of it in tamizh too .As far as this movie is concerned, she did her part very well .. I was happy at least there was a part where she motivates the hero to not give up but fight against the wrong ones and emerge victorious ..That was appealing !!
How can i forget talking about the bad guy who competes with the hero equally in the acting and also the characterisation . Prakash Raj is excellent, He just gets better with every movie that he does yet has not bored us playing the bad man time and again .He performs like as if this was his first appearance as a villainous guy ...Music score was ok but the background score stole the show .Devishri Prasad had some echoing compositions for the train chase and the police patrols.
Totally the movie is packaged very well and has got everything that a movie needs .. A nice cast of actors , story, screenplay , music and everything that a movie needs.
Worth a watch ..Actually i can even watch it once more..
Totally , Singam was a Super Duper Movie ..Now , get your tickets booked :-))

lol! viji - I watched Singam finnally y'day.
I wish tamil cinema moved away from scenes like one hero fighting with 10 villians, he breaks the rook of this TATA Sumo, throwing 2 villians out...
and I wished Police were as good and sincere as Sury in that movie. If we had such a supporting CM oh boy! our country will never be stated as "developing country".
but over all total TP movie....
