"This movie is about a local gully cricket team preparing for a cricket tournament to defeat their arch rival team and the events in their lives through the year to the tournament." This is wat SPB announces in the frst scene. The team does make it to the end of the tournament, defeating their rivals in a very interesting semi-final match, but the ending has a twist, and you are sure to walk out laughing.
The main catch of the film is that in its cast, almost all are fresh faces to the field, and all act casually, giving the film a realistic feel. The comedy lines are really good: that is the backbone of the film. Especially the guy, who never really catches a throw throughout the film, and comes up with the famous 'enna koduma sir ithu' dialogue wherever applicable, arouses laughter throughout the crowd. And finally he does catch a throw, and thats another comic sequence.
Almost all characters have a significant part in the film, contributing to the laughter atleast in one sequence. The music by Yuvan is another plus point: almost all songs are good. Some sequences use old movie songs to arouse some more rounds of laughter.
The film suffers a few notable glitches: The main motto of the heroes (all the 11 members of the team are the heroes here), next to playing cricket, seems to be drinking and smoking. Heroines (only 2, thank God!!!) live upto the kollywood formula: appear to say 2 words, jst before a song unfolds. And you a have a song that can surely be telecasted in tv in the late hours.
Forget the logic (who has ever heard abt a cricket tournament in a tennis ball), then u have a very entertaining movie to keep ur mind relaxed for over 2.5 hrs.
