The basic plot of Easan is simple, predictable and even clichéd but it is that presentation and performances of all characters big and small that makes the film watchable. The film is about a rich spoiled son of a corrupt minister who virtually rules chennai city(night life).The film works to a large extent as Sasikumar has taken a leaf from the pages of daily crimes related to Chennai night life and its nexus with politicians and the stinking rich.All the lead characters are basically newcomers, which is the major plus of the film.AL Alagappan is astonishingly agile in a very life-like performance of a corrupt politician.Ultimately it is Samuthirakani who steals the show with a restrained performance as a cop.
On the downside, the film is too long nearly three hours,with tedious flashback,and a bloody climax.James Vasanthans songs are total waste of time and slacken the pace of the film.
Final verdict-Although Easan is certainly not in the league of Sasikumars sensational debut film Subramaniapuram,but worth a watch.
