It is a normal Arjun in khaaki. Someone whom we had seen for a few years. He's good as usual in stunt sequences. The actor is youthful and bubbly. The heroines Hema and Archana don't have any part to play on this macho-man story. All of the villains speak from their belly and seem like caricatures.
Boopathy has done the camera and the chase and stunts are captuired well. Saleem’s editing is okay, while Dhina has get a hold of songs that sounds familiar to us. Anal Arasu’s stunts sequences holds our attention.
It is a beaten - to-bush storyline. A ll is predictable on this cop story. But Arjun’s screen presence makes the adaptation. Kitcha’s passion for khakhi continues
Verdict: A MOVIE on Arjun’s Shoulders
