  Here is the complete review:
  
  Vikram’s action hero image is once again established with this total masala entertainer Arul.
  Arul Kumaran (Vikram) belongs to a goldsmith family of 15 members from Coimbatore. He is kind hearted and cannot stand anyone who utters bad words to him. Arul leaves his family profession when his father mistakenly accuses and verbally abuses him of theft from the shop. He joins a mill as a labourer. He is disowned by his father and his brother –in- law Thiruppur Thirupathy (director Ravikumar) is the only solace to him. Gajapathy (Pasupathy) is the local MLA who operates like a dada and acquires almost the whole city with his muscle power. His elder brother Sethupathy, the party leader and a political kingmaker helps him in his entire endeavor. Kanmani with her sister and mother comes to Coimbatore to stay in the opposite house of Arul. She falls for Arul and under an unexpected circumstance Arul marries her.
  Gajapathy enters into a conflict with Arul and in a scuffle Arul batters him to death and surrenders in the local police station. But the hospital dean who was earlier a victim of Gajapathy decides to help Arul and gives a declaration that the MLA died in a natural process. The upright police inspector (Saranraj) of that area also helps Arul in his attempts. In the meantime Arul faces the wrath of Sethupathy and loses his brother and brother-in- law. Arul takes up the job of cleaning up the city with the help of local people and the rest of the story is how Arul becomes the leader of Coimbatore.
  Vikram as Arul does it again. Every time he comes out with the punch dialogue “Anniyayam Pannina Aandavanukku Pudikkadhu, Asingam Pesina Arulukku Pudikkadhu”, one could hear the claps hitting the ceiling in the theatres. Hari has managed to maintain the pace of the film although he interludes family sentiments here and there. Though the story reminds us of Kamal’s Sathya, Hari’s treatment makes it different. Jothika looks cute and does her part neatly. Pasupathy as Gajapathy and Kollam Thulasi, a debutant for Tamil from Malayalam as Sethupathy, Ravi Kumar as Arul’s B-in- law are apt for their roles. Chaya Singh does an 'item number' with Vikram. There is Sujatha, Kuyili, Rekha, Saranya, Vaiyapuri and a host of artistes doing their part well. Harris Jayaraj’s music is average. Two of the songs are shot at foreign locales and eye catchy.

  Ghilli, Peralagan, Aitha Eluthu, Jana, Yethiri, even Kuthu and Semma Ragalai.
  all these movies are better than Arul. Vikram is getting boring. His movies are just the same things over and over again. vey boring.

  Kavitha,
  U have wasted a lot of space writing your stupid review for a stupid film.
  
  U could hear the claps hitting the cieling in the theatre? Guess, U were the only one clapping. And your final comment : Mass entertainer - laughable.
  
  Look up the meaning of the word "entertainer" in the dictionary. By the way, when did U turn into a Vikram fan? U are a simbu fan, right. 2 in 1?

  Once again this ignorant clown jumps up with his "half-baked" assumptions. Hey Dumbo! It's not my own review. I just copied the review from the below link as I mentioned earlier in the thread.

  I pasted this review in order to get the opinion of others whether or not they agree with it. You are the only person in this forum who is calling names of other people in this forum when they air their views or they post a article written in a web site. BTW, when are you going to grow up? Get a life soon.

  I knew that ur little brain and rational will lead to some real 'freak up'. FYKI: That 'Kavitha' is DIFFERENT, moron and read the right of any handle when comparing for pete's sake! Florida and Washington are in two extremes diagonally. What a waste u r, anand!;-))

  Kavitha,
  So U are a "cut & paste" kaviitha. OK. I thought the views were your own. Only now I know. U can't think of your own & U advise me to grow up? Good joke.
  
  By the way, I only referred to your comments as stupid. I did not pass personal comments.

  ukw,
  Why do U get so worked up when I refer to "kavitha"? Something cooking???.
  "Florida and Washington are in two extremes diagonally". Really? How did U find out? Columbus Kotta eh!.
  
  I never advised, U dumbhead. Look up a good dictionary & learn english. I suggest U start from "learning the different between advice & comments".
  
  Atleast from now on, try to give some comments relevant to the topic. U do not do that in any of the forums. Atleast try now. Who knows? U may succeed.
  
  Bye, dumbhead. (By the way, also look up the meaning of the word"comedian" in the dictionary).
  As usual, U have used the word incorrectly.
