Whats the best cocktail movie you can ever imagine? well its all happening here – right in TamilNadu. Presenting KURUVI, “Ilaya comedypathi Vijay’s” latest flick. Just for a prologue, the movie contains parts from Fast&Furious, Mask of Zorro (including a base script), Gladiator, Kungfu-Hustle , Shaolin Soccer and some stunts usually performed by david blaine.
For a change – My verdict first . This movie is such a super masala that its a must watch in my list. One of the sequences like jumping from a roof top to a bridge and then catching a train running at 90kmph , is something you can’t miss, right ? Not to forget scenes where Vijay kicks a full grown (atleast 100Kg) thug like a soccer ball.
Like mask of zorro (MOZ hereafter) , the basic theme of the movie is a villain trying to dig out diamonds (gold in MOZ) , without governments knowledge. As usual our hero takes things into his own hand and there is a happy ending for the story. Even the late entry of police (nowadays special investigation team) is also as per books. Same with the villian-trying-to-kill-hero in a most complicated , round about, crooked, hard to escape way where hero always escapes. ( Rather , the villian can actually wait for hero’s mother/wife/lover/children to die of natural causes. Usualy this will inturn invariably start a series of hear attacks and deaths. The probability of Son dying or going mad is so high in these cases than putting the hero in a closed lift and throwing him down the gutter and assuming that he will be dead. )
Anyways this time I am not going to go into the details of the movie, but here are some of the snippets which you ought not miss while watching the movie.
My top 5 scenes/sequence which you are not supposed to miss are :
1. The jumping onto the running train stunt.
2. Racing car sequence where our Vijay’s accelerator cable breaks and he just bends down and scoops the broken cable only to be later kept between his teeth and drive again. Also the car somehow finally flew in the air to complete the race. Quite intriguing, …infact confusing.
3. Vijay’s intro scene is quite innovative.
4. I am still cluless as to why Vijay wears a bullet proof vest for a song sequence , that too shot on a helipad. Still the songs are decent, Choreo is excellent and Costumes are negligible (esp. for Thrisha).
5. Fight sequences – They are too hilarious, especially if you like movies like KungFu Hustle.
Make sure you take your own kids, your relative’s kids and your neigbours kids to the movie. This is your one big chance to get some brownie points for yourself 
coz I don’t see next harry potter releasing anytime soon. Also there are some jokes by Vivek but Vijay overshadows Vivek’s subtle comedies even with his normal dialogue delivery..
Vijay is definitely a good competitor for superhero’s of TN (Rajni ofcourse). The villian’s in this movie are as good as mojo jojo. Even “lollu sabha” cannot make another spoof for this already highly spoofed movie. In total the movie is a cool entertainer , for a real hot chennai.
