THE CAST
Surya - an example of hard work. He keeps on improving in his every movies. Maatraan becomes the first movie in Tamil cinema to use performance capture technology which acquires double hard work by Surya who respectfully accepted the challenges and brilliantly convey his performances without a doubt never fail to entertain his fans and never let his team down. He portraits both dual characters remarkably. Its like seeing two different characters for real. He proves he can accept any characters well.
Kajal Agarwal - She plays an important character in the movie. As part of being a Russian translator for Akilan, she conveys her roles well and being a medium to change the story flows.
Sachin Khedekar - Plays the important role equally to the main role. He brings his character as a dedicated father who willing to do anything to succeed his career. A genetic engineer who starts to think himself as God.
Thara - Plays the the role of both Vimalan and Akilan's mother who performs her character well as a mother and as a wife.
Cast Rating : 4.5 / 5
THE DIRECTOR
After back to back hit from Ayan and KO, it is very highly expected movie form director K V Anand. His dedications and efforts were limitless to make this amazing script to include the concept of genetic engineering and baby designing from multiple donor ideology to the Tamil screen. Not to forget the brilliant mind to encourage himself to bring performance capture technology to be input together with the conjoined twins concept. But this time he fails to bring the excitement at the 2nd half of the movie. A fun adventurous entertainment in 1st half of the movie totally vanished in the 2nd part of the film. Too many draggy and unnecessary scenes which totally boost down the 2nd period of the movie. Totally lowering down the expectations from the viewers.
Director Rating : 4 / 5
CINEMATOGRAPHY
A visual treats for the audiences. S Soundar Rajan's cinematography brings the flow of the movie perfectly brilliant. His eye-catching visionary especially in songs such as Nani Koni wonderfully screened to the viewers. A very highly ventured cinematographic excels the storyline.
Cinematography Rating : 4 / 5
MUSIC
Surya - Harris Jayaraj combination never fails to bring the musical treats to the fans. Songs such Rettai Kathire, Nani Kodi and Kaal Mulhaite Poove placed deeply to viewers heart. Video visual for the songs anticipated the songs to be heard again n again. At the same time, Harris Jayaraj scrolled down his effort by producing epic BGM's which notify the viewers that the BGM's has been adopted form other source. This totally dropped down his music.

STUNT
Definitely need to give a big applause to Peter Hain to bring out extreme stunt especially the fights scene at the roller coaster park. Totally a mind-blowing stunts conveyed by Peter Hain to bring the conjoined twins to the actions. The scenes where Vimalan and Akilan stretched out during the fights and the part Vimalan's head was directly hit been totally nailed deeply the heart. Probably the best action stunts been witness.
Stunt : 4 / 5
MAATRAAN - Highly anticipated K V Anand story which not only about conjoined twins but related to genetic engineering. A big bow to the VFX team to portrait the performing capture technology. Kudos to Peter Hain brilliant effort to feature the conjoined twins to the actions at the roller coaster ride. A fun packed entertainer which totally scrolled down by the lengthy and draggy storyline in the second half. This could have been trimmed and reduced to be a mass entertainment.
MOVIE RATING : 3 / 5
