There is absolutely nothing wrong in comparing "OK OK" to SMS and B-e-B because allof them fall in the same genre. All of them have romance and comedy. All of them havea loser (hero character) going after a rich and to an extent beautiful girl. And the rest ofthe story is that how the hero takes the help of Santhanam (in all 3 movies) to get to hisprize. Although, SMS and B-e-B had kickass comedy, OK OK's comedy is just a littlemore than ordinary.
OK OK has two "trying to act" protagonists trying to make a difference in Kollywood butin vain. Santhanam is the one to watch for and yet the time is no near when the viewer'sreach the saturation for Santhanam. He tries and delivers a little different and the resultis just enough to keep you happy and not cry for the amount you spent on the ticket.
Music by Harris Jayaraj is just normal. The songs including the hit number "Venaammachan.." has so tiring lyrics loops that bores you and you do a facepalm.
Hansika Motwani looks ravishing in places. Her costumes have been chosen well andyou get "value for money".
Inclusion of Udhayanidhi has just allowed the director to shoot easily at important andhappening locations in Chennai. His role is just passable and nothing can be expectedmore from him.
Santhanam is the saviour of "OK OK" in fact he is the one who makes the movie just okok to watch.
There are interesting cameos towards the end and viewers are in for a visual treat for aperson who comes and gives what the heroine hadn't given so far in the movie - A kiss!
I was impressed to see that the director wanted to hide the reflections of the camerafalling on Santhanam's coolers in just one scene. They used special effects just onthe glasses to show normal reflection - but to our eyes it is quite obvious that it wassomething that the director tried. Also was happy not to note any major flaws. (Comeon, you do expect such things)
Comments for the director - Rajesh, you have treated us enough with your previousoutings. With OK OK, you just become a pain. I know you have a thing for "love" andyou are just trying to show how all your life could have been but please try a differentgenre next time or if you don't get that, wait for 1-2 years and make a similar movie.
Please don't ever make the hero pass derogatory comments towards women. They arewhat they are. It is not in their hands that they don't please you with their looks. (And thehero shouldn't have accepted spitting at a woman just for that she doesn't look all thatgorgeous)
As the poster at the start of the review shows - Santhanam is ahead and the one towatch for rather than the pillion.
I'm giving it a 2/5 just for Santhanam and the cameos!
OK OK - Give it a try!
