A bunch of my friends dragged me to this film as I'm really skeptic about Tamil films in general, filled with melodrama and clichés... Surprise! this film was just awesome!Can be compared to the best french comedies, like Andrew Weber's, who I'm a big fan of. What's more, its set in Madras, which gives it a unique flavor and captures the spirit and people there, which no film has ever managed to in Tamil. Another cool thing, is the irreverence with which the directors have handled the characters, as opposed to most films which pack in a pseudo message! All the characters, even the minor ones have a little story/anecdote to say, which gives these characters a unique flavor and depth. The performances and casting is excellent with a whole bunch of newcomers. Some of the lines are so funny and endearing, it brings tears to your eyes while laughing. And, the locations: where did they manage to find so many lovely, colonial structures?! It's not just a comedy, which usually don't have any technical finesse. This film is a visual treat which also sounds great! The entire team should be applauded for making this unique, fantastic film! Am really looking forward to the next film from the team! And guess, I'll start watching more Tamil films, letting go off my snobbish attitude that only European and some American films are worth a watch.

Its a simple tale of 2guys, Suraa and Maarthandan in search of a drink on a dry night in the city of Chennai. But, the way the film has been structured, starting from the different characters involved in different activities in different parts of the city at the same time(6.30pm) and how these fascinating quirky characters come into play through the film is very complex and well structured. It has the style of international movies with picture perfect production design and camera work. Its really delightful to just see each and every frame of the film. The relationship between Suraa and Maarthandan is very tender and comes through a full arch with some sweet performances from the lead cast. Again casting wise, each and every character from Saro, as the dumb school girl to the father son duo played by the same character to the dogs which chase the protagonists are very unique and interesting. Even the Amman cutout, which finally saves the day plays a character! Its rather unfortunate that a lot of people don't seem to get the coolness and intelligence behind such an effort! Hope it doesn't end up as one of those highly underrated, fantastic films! The makers have the finesse and the film looks like its a love child of Jean-Pierre Jeunet, Guy Ritchie and Tarantino! Wow! It's that awesome! This trend is healthy and hope to see more such cutting edge, avant garde films in namma Madras!

WOW! AWESOME,UNIQUE,COOLEST FILM!I have seen Oram Po, the director duo's first flick and was pretty impressed with their innovative story telling on a local subculture.This film, takes it a notch above from bringing on the most unique story and characters alive on screen. Right from the title sequence with 2D animation and resounding rock guitars, the style quotient hits a high and sustains it throughout the film. In an industry where films have loud, on your face jokes, this one comes as a surprise with subtle, smart and intelligent comedy. Even the goddess loosing an eye ( wow, who would ever think of its repercussions in the story?!) is so cool and unassuming! And the opening sequence which flows as a seamless single shot, introducing the different characters, who bump in through the film: definitely this film way out of league for any Tamil, rather Indian film! These guys are the future and messiah for a contrived, stuck up film industry. Good job guys! keep up the good work! oh, and its so funny! COMPLETE LAUGH RIOT! and the colors, the art direction, camera work, music!!!I can go on and on... Its a Wonderful, DELIGHTFUL, FILM!

As Sura walks past the departure gates, he sees a pair of Arabs and sarcastically utters "I'm on my way to your country." An erstwhile attempt is made to invent black comedy and Va – Quarter Cutting succeeds with zeal. But, the zeal is lost in its interstate highway-like screenplay. Writing-directing duo, Pushkar and Gayathri intertwine many story lines and keep the characters in sketch while a few get left away. The characters in the film have a thirst to quench. Sura (Shiva) needs a drink, Marthandam (Charan) needs a clean slate to impress Sura's sister, whom he claims to marry, and Saro (Lekha) needs an answer from the occupants of heaven on why she has consistently failed her exams. This eventually forms the resolution after an action-packed climax.Pushkar and Gayathri infuse characters ranging from a hitchhiker en route to Chennai, to Anglo-Indian Bikers. They quench their thirst by adding scenes that are meant to evoke humor. While some of them succeed, most of them don't. On learning that the bar is closed in a five-star hotel, why didn't Sura and Marthandam go looking for another five-star hotel? Questions arise as you notice numerous flaws.G.V. Prakash's BGM is a Guy Ritchie rip-off. But, he manages to hide it by reworking on them, whether it's the 80s disco song or Hans Zimmer's Academy Award nominated tunes from Sherlock Holmes or the closing song of Snatch or RocknRolla's opening track. There's not much in Va that amuses us. The predictable screenplay makes hay at nighttime.
