Guns, Girls and Gadgets are synonymous with James Bond. The film 1977 can be considered a desi version of James Bond film. Unlike bond films this film lacks technical brilliance.

Sarath Kumar plays a scientist named Vetrivel. 1977 is about a Vetrivel who strives hard to rewrite the history of his father, which had been recorded falsely due to vested interests. The story is an investigation thriller, and has got family sentiments and revenge. The story takes us from India to Malaysia over two eras.

Songs pops up unexpectedly when we watch the movie, and there ends all the surprise this film has to offer. Every film viewer knows who is the villain from the very beginning in this suspense film.

It has been shot partly in Malaysia and Langkawi and has Sarath doing double roles as well as six makeovers.

As in many successful Sarath Kumar films like Suryavamsam, Nattamai and Natpukkaga which featured him in dual roles and went on to be huge grossers, he is doing dual roles as father and son in this film.

Jayasudha is pairing up with Senior Sarath while Farzana and Namitha are staring opposite Junior Sarath.

Vivek is doing comedy part which is rather bleak.

1977 includes a song that was shot on set that was erected at a cost of Rs. 40 lakhs.

Vidyasagar, the melody maker has composed 5 songs for this action packed film.

Action, song, sentiments, action, song, sentiments this is the way the script is formatted. 1977 is a big-budget extravaganza with stunt and dance sequences.

In Tamil film industry big budget films are flopping like anything, while small budget films with new faces are creating history in box office.

Debutant director Dinesh Kumar proved to have nothing special. His incompetence can be seen in clichéd scenes and sequences.

Namitha hits the box office the third time in a month. Viewers are getting an overdose of her these days.

There are lots of extra artists in the film, and each one of them acting soo immaturely.

The film includes the introduction song shot with more than 500 junior artistes and dancers. Petronas twin towers are also featured in a scene.

The movie is a bilingual with a simultaneous Telugu release.

The film will be dubbed in Chinese and Malay.

Produced under the Sarath Kumar banner this film is going to satisfy viewers who are interested in glamour and action. The masala content featured in this film has the caliber to make it a hit.
