Cast: Michael Thangadurai, Reshmi Menon, Sampath, Karthik Sabesh, Atul KulkarniDirection: DharanidharanGenre: ThrillerDuration: 1 hour 39 minutes
Synopsis: In the world of car seizing, Guna is the go-to guy but his star is on the wane with the entry of Burma, a newbie carjacker. When Bothra Seth, a loan shark-cum-gangster, goes to Burma to help him seize 27 cars, Guna plans to beat the upstart at his own game.
Movie Review: Right from its opening frame, Burma oozes style and debutant Dharanidharan establishes straightaway that he is not after just another crime thriller. The frames are uber-cool (Yuva is the cinematographer) and the trendy music (by Sudharshan M Kumar) only adds to the film's overall attitude and atmosphere.
The noir-ish plot involves various strands of stories. There is Burma, a young carjacker, who is threatening Guna, the guy who thinks he is at the top of the trade. Burma gets an 'assignment' to steal 27 cars from Bothra Seth and the smarting Guna decides that it is a chance for him to teach a lesson to the upstart. Meanwhile, a gang is plotting to steal five crores from a high-security van. Then, there is a beautician who has gotten hold of a priceless Faberge egg. All these characters crisscross each other leading to chaos that result in Burma facing a situation where he has to race against time to save his lover Kalpana.
