I do not know what I may appear to the world; but to myself I seem to have been only like a boy playing on the seashore, and diverting myself in now and then finding a smoother pebble or a prettier shell than ordinary, whilst the great ocean of truth lay all undiscovered before me. -Sir Issac Newton

Manmadhan Ambu

At the moment not having much patience to write a full review, yet wanted to blog-out something after a long time. Jotted down few thought abt the movie...

-  At the juncture where Ambu comes to know of the accident caused by her from Major Mannar itself , the movie reaches the zenith.Till then movie was peppered with mild humour and built up a commendable storyline.The last 1/2 hr was an outright  "dialogue comedies" which did not do full justice to the first half of the movie. The balance gets shifted to humour and gets upperhand over the story.
- Unable to get why Madhanagopal doesn't ask for camera pictures from his spy after he declares that Trisha is moving along with a "secret lover"?

- That Ambu never knew of the accident caused by her is unbelievable ...

- Kamal as usual excelled in acting (especially the poignant scenes where he narrates his past to Trisha and when he feels for his hospitalised friend)

- Movies like "Avvai shanmugi" or "Michael madhana Kama Raj" are definitely movies which take strong support from "dialogue humour", yet suitable fast paced scenes accompany them to evoke laughter. But if one watches the last  minutes of  "Manmadhan Ambu", some 6-7 guys accuse (perhaps with mild humour)  each other standing in the same place leaving much work to the auditory faculty of the audience. (Needless to say , audience are generally not as comfortable with 'hearing' as much as 'watching')

- wondering what for Singer Usha uthup and 'Bajji' Oviya were chosen ...

- The inclusion of Mr and Mrs.Kurup was irksome.

- The song " Neela vaanam.." was heart-rendering .Its back-tracking sequence was a different feel...
