Simhamanti Chinnode Vetakochade....
The only reason I picked out this film was because it stars the very talented and very sophisticated Mr. Simha. I think all of us would have been satisfied watching just one of him, but we in this convoluted excuse for a movie, we lose count as to how many of him there are. The worst of it is they are all playing the same character. That's right. Vasantha Mullai - a title which has nothing to do with the plot - is a tedious mix of bad horror and bad sci fi, all sold as a psychological thriller.
Psychiatric treatment more like it. Not only does Bobby Simha's character get it in the movie- the director needs it in real life. The entire frightening experience repeats itself twice, perhaps even a third time, each time with another lead couple.
While Mr. Simha's acting is certainly challenged, it is the ridiculous plot and all the more ridiculous ending that leaves us loopy.
