I agree that it has lot of style and is lot of style from beginning to end, But it is a great movie where Mohanlal showed his skills very well and has no reason to be rated less!! I have watched it more than 40 times and still love to watch it when I feel like getting some courage and power. The confidence in the dialogue's and cinematography are excellent features of this movie. Even after watching the movie several times, every single time i get goosebumps when I watch the confidence of the Character Sagar Alias Jacky. The scenes where Mohanlal lets know Shobana that her child need not worry about any revenge when he grows up and such scenes where he speaks with the style of a Don or Leader is really mind blowing.
