billa is good, but not great

overall its a good entertainer. its racy and never loses pace, stylish and slick. but the dialogues are nowhere close to being sophisticated. they're bad, corny and make you frown. for eg., namita gets up and all of a sudden says, "billa, enaku unna evalo pudichirku theriyuma? unakaga uyiraye kuduppen" eew!! nayan is good, but needs to work on her abs!! action sequences are well-shot and, more importantly, short and crisp. ajith's intro was kinda stupid and should have been better. background score is great. cinematography is excellent. overall, its almost there, but not there just yet. with a couple more attempts, tamil cinema can boast of stylish film making.
