'Uthama Villain' is a kind of experimental comedy emotional flick, which has been intended to satisfy Kamal's thirst of his passion, but not intended for the normal audience.
The film is about Manoranjan (Kamal Haasan), leading Tamil actor who is about to have his last breath. So finally he wanted to end his career by working in a comedy film with director Margadarsi (K.B. Balachander).
The positives of the film are its lead cast. The entire cast involving Kamal, K.B. Balachander, Urvasi, Nasser, M.S. Bhaskar have delivered realistic acting throughout the film. Apart from that, some excellent visuals and sets are the major assets of the film. Late director K.B. Balachander could not have a perfect ending tribute than this.
The most negative part of the film is its slow paced screenplay. Obviously the final moments of the film will leave the audience emotional, but audience have to patiently tolerate many boring moments in the film. The entire 'Uthaman Part' (which resembles 1960s comedy dramas), hardly tickles the audience' laugh bones and finally became a disastrous part among the audience. It is normal to wonder why the makers have opted to add outdated 1960s comedy style in this flick.
Normally Kamal is known for slow paced classical films like Nayagan, Kuruthipunal and Anbe Sivam. But, unfortunately 'Uthama Villain' does not belong to that category. The makers could have chopped many unwanted scenes in the film and make the film more engaging towards the audience.
Overall, the film is totally intended to satisfy Kamal's thirst of his passion, but the makers have left the audience' thoughts behind. Hold your patience and watch out the film.
