Malayalees came en masse to the comment box of popular Tamil reviewer Blue Sattai Maran after the latter ridiculed the movie 'Marco' starring Unni Mukundan. Blue Sattai Maran minced no words and remarked the movie a paper tiger worth nothing for the hype it received. Maran also made jibes at the cavalcade of foreign cars and the recurring gunfight scenes used in the movie.
However, the review sparked an influx of Malayalee audience to his comment box. Comments demeaning and critiquing the reviewer spiked which many said was a taste of Maran's own medicine. Most comments followed the same pattern and ridiculed Maran as ‘Uncle’.
Comments:
Not much support came Maran’s way as the whole conundrum in the comment box favoured 'Marco'. At the same time, some jumped into action apologizing for the lame comments on behalf of all Malayalees.
Maran:
“The movie comes with many foreign cars and gun-firing scenes. There is no dearth to it. It lacks a twist or any substance. For all the hype it produced, the movie is a cheap version of Korean movies. The makers tried to emulate Korean thrillers but ended up doing a mediocre job.”
The review is gaining traction and is talked about in Tamil Nadu. Unni Mukundan starrer ‘Marco’ has been a rave in Kerala upon its release and is slowly gaining response in Tamil Nadu too.
