Manmadhan Ambu has a good script without kuthu numbers, no skin show, no item girl, no villain or punch lines. Kamal haasan takes charge of story, screenplay and dialogues while KS Ravikumar does the direction. Although the story is interesting, the film unfolds very slowly and does not gather momentum at any stage. The script sparkles in patches and fails to engage the audience completely. The way in which Kamal narrates his past in a reverse mode is intelligent.Trishas character as movie star Nisha is the pivot role around which the film revolves. Sangeetha overshadows all the other artists in her natural and spontaneous performance. Trisha for the first time in her career speaks for herself and it is a revelation and certainly adds greater strength to her character. Madhavan teams up with Kamal after Anbe Sivam has does his part with ease. In their small roles Oorvasi and Ramesh Aravind bring out the agony of illness.Technically the film is top class.Music is by Devi Sri Prasad, Oyyale song stays in mind and the other numbers are just about satisfactory.
We expected more from KS Ravikumar but nothing is happening in the movie.
Overall verdict- Manmadhan Ambu is not a great movie or a bad movie but a average movie with a good script but not up to the mark (Kamal Style)
