When Kamal's making a film there are more than just normal expectations.Dasavatharam was no exception,with the hype reaching unprecedented heights.I am a fan of When Kamal Hassan's making a new film,the expectations are bound to be high and DasavatharamKamal thanks to the impressive storyline the genius comes up with.But Dasavatharam was nevertheless disappointing with a very feeble story based on the concept of a bio weapon that goes into the wrong hands and a lesser-touched upon Chaos theory.Kamal,as usual,will impress you with his acting skills.
The film starts off in 12 A.D,with a scenario portraying the conflict that existed between Shivites and Vaishnavites.Kamal as Ramanujam Iyengar impresses along with Napolean(as Kulothonga Chozhan).The story then moves to the year 2004 from where the other 9 'avatars' of Kamal are introduced.Kamal as a scientist plays the lead character(with Asin as his lady love)I was impressed with the CIA agent(the villain) and Poovaragahan;the other roles seemed as if they were in the script so that the film could be named "Dasavatharam".Asin has done justice to her role as a Iyengar girl but nevertheless won't linger in your mind.Mallika Sharawath has done her part expected from here;glamour.
'Nuff said,Dasavatharam qualifies as a one-time-see and that too for Kamal's acting finesse;it definitely isn't one of his best films,in my opinion.
And oh,I thought I'd mention the names of the ten characters done by Kamal in Dasavatharam:
Rangaraja Nambi - 12th century priest
Balaram Naidu - CBI officer from Andhra Pradesh
Govind Ramasamy - The scientist
Avatar Singh - The singh who sings
Krishnaveni Paati - The 90 year old Grandmother
Christian Fletzer - The villain Kamal
Shinghen Narahasi -The Chinese Kung fu expert
George Bush - George Bush himself
Vincent Poovaragan - The Dalit
Kalifullah Khan - The tall muslim

Well said.
I like Bhoova, the paatima, the Punjabi singer and the Telegu Police Officer.
Kamal was concentrating in his roles and neglected the story.
Not even 1 love song (unlike Hey Ram) and Asin was on the verge of downright irritating.
The white-man make-up were quite bad in the sense Kamal lost much on facial expression. The faces were a bit too stiff

Kamal did justice to all the roles,but as you said,much of the facial expression(which is one of Kamal's trademarks) were lost due to the heavy makeup.I noticed this in the avatars of the CIA agent and the tall Muslim.
