  Well, i had seen the movie, and personally, i feel the movie is above average, well directed apart from scrap movies like Gilli...
  Surya and Madhavan had done extremely well in this movie. Was surprised with Meera's and Trisha's performance....

  The two lead heroes Maddy & Surya have acted extremely well.
  
  1. Maddy has convincingly portrayed the character of a henchman for a corrupt politician (Bharatiraja).
  
  2. Surya has acted well as rebellious college student.
  
  3. The movie begins of promisingly with the flash back of the three heroes but after intermission the movie gets a little contrived which takes away the sheen of the opening narrative.
  
  4. Rehamn's back-round score captures the mood of the film, cinematography is first rate and Maniratnam's touch in screen-play is mising after second half...
  
  MY FINAL OPINION: Can be seen once on theatre or DVD just for the performance from Maddy n Surya.

  I think that site is kind of wierd because how can they rate aitha eluthu as average?? When they have mainly masalas like Ghilli, Arul, Jana, which mainly have basically the same story over and over again, going right now, how can they rate AE as just average? AE is a good movie, with a good message.
  
  Watch it, its a very good movie.

  Well said surya...
  I wonder if movies like Nayagan or Thalapathy if released now, whether would have been a hit..
  AE is a diff, standard, realistic and a natural pic..

  Flawless movie.
  Great direction and stellar performances by all the actors/actresses.
  Surya, madhavan and bharathiraja's performances steal the lime light.
  Esha deol looks excellent.
  We should encourage movies of this quality rather than praise movies like ghilli, arul, saamy etc
