June 4, 2010 (Sampurn Wire): Tamil action film Singam is to be released in an unprecedented scale across the US. Big Cinemas will be releasing the film in more than 30 screens across 24cities in the US on June 28. These include the ten screens owned by Big Cinemas. A contest, which began on Monday 23rd May will go on till June 7. It is called “Surya searches for his biggest fan in US’ and has been organized by the distributors. Surya will select the winner himself. Singam is Surya’s 25th film and first Tamil film to release on such a grand scale abroad.
Singam, starring Surya and Anushka Shetty, directed by Hari, produced by Studio Green and distributed by Sun Pictures, was released on 28th May in India. According to the reviews Singam manages to stand apart from Surya’s previous films like “Saamy’ and “Khakha Khakha’, where Surya stumped movie goers with mind blowing cop presence. The second half of the movie is far more racier than the first one. An inevitable climax is what the second half is all about.
As with every film directed by Hari, the viewers walk into the theatre expecting it to be entertaining to the hilt. But with most of Sun’s previous movies turning out to be mediocre, the expectations weren’t actually as much. However, the people’s expectations were fulfilled and Singam turned out to be entertaining indeed! Kudos to Hari for his outstanding screenplay. Starting from the very first scene it managed to keep the audience asking for more. Surya wins accolades as a commercial hero as well. Anushka had a lot of scope too unlike her other films.
The music of Devi Prasad is fantastic and the song “Kadhal Vandhale’ wins applause. Cinematography of the film is good in parts and the perfect editing adds more to the narration. But the stunts were definitely unbelievable. Especially when Surya breaks stones and poles apart with his fists! It is an ideal family entertainer, and definitely worth your money!
