Vishwaroopam is Kamal Haasan's most genuine and sincere attempt till date.

Kamal Haasan's hardwork as actor and director is evident in every scene. Kamal deserves kudos for making a truly Hollywood style thriller set against the backdrop of terrorism. Kamal brings down the house in his role as the effeminate Kathak dancer during the first segment.(more)

A riveting spy thriller

Sanu Varghese's spectacular cinematography becomes as important as the actors in this thriller. The camera takes us into the dangerous alleys of New York and the muddy, rugged terrain of Afghanistan.

The movie wo...(more)

Vishwaroopam is a must watch!

Technically it is one of the best films to emerge out of south. The camera work of Sanu Varghese is terrific, especially the way he has taken New York and Afghanistan replica in some studio in India. Shankar Ehasan Loy's music and back ground score is adequate. The down sides is that film should hav...(more)

Vishwaroopam Review

Vishwa is a kathak teacher whose wife Nirupama wants to divorce him because she's in an extramarital affair. And he's even not Alpha-male. But wait, she discovers her husband is not the simpleton she thinks he is. Saying anything more at this juncture will spoil the plot.(more)
