Poi Solla Porom: Situational comedy with a message

Youngsters rule the roost in this movie and it’s such a refreshing change to feel the freshness and earnest desire of the crew to bring out a quality product to the theatres.

Positives:
ü Novel title introduction, Tight screenplay, Intelligent direction, Seamless
editing, excellent scenario building and rib tickling second half

ü A sort of comeback for yesteryear actor Mouli..What an amazing sense of
comic timing this legend has got.. ..Where was he all these days?? The
Mouli – Nazar combo strikes gold for Poi Solla Porom

ü Finally a plum role for Karthik Kumar.... Something that was long due for
this deserving actor..nice transformation of the character from a nonchalant
son to finally taking up the onus and responsibility to turn the tables on
Nasser. The “poi” game really starts here, with a host of other characters,
just post the interval and takes off on jet speed.

ü Wonderful, apt, able and excellent supporting cast, the movie allows us to
discover a new set of talent for tamil cinema, actress Piya looks cute as
Karthik’s love interest though she can improve upon her lip sync going
forward, Omar as Karthik’s brother and Big FM Balaji as Mouli’s secretary
deserve a special mention..They are the ones we need to support and keep a
watch on

ü Message that gets driven down: Beware of real estate sharks and land grabbers

ü Good background score, situational songs, no item numbers or dream sequences


Negatives:

1. The first half can be pruned by about 10 minutes to maintain the tempo of
the movie

2. How much ever I tried to wear the hat of a critic, I couldn’t find anything
more than Point 1 above… You just can’t find fault with this movie guys…
just let your hair down and have fun.:):)


This movie is sure to bring a smile on your face while u leave the cinema hall.
When we audience can ensure the success of distasteful movies like “kuruvi”, “vaathu”. “Kozhi” etc etc at the box office, why not support and root for clean, good, light hearted cinema.

Go watch PSP with your family and don’t forget to pass on the word:)
