Review of Anjaan

Anjaan (2014)
5/10
Raju Bhai fails to live up to the expectation
18 August 2014
Anjaan - a much awaited Don story of this year with a great crew in it, Surya, Vidyut, Samantha, Yuvan, Santhosh Sivan & Linguswamy. But the movie doesn't go well as expected...

Strength :

Surya's daring look :

Surya looks is daring in this movie. Seems to be the best ever look for Surya. Everyone is waiting to see his stylish look in the movie. The way he took the toothpick from his mouth in most of the scenes was awesome.

Yuvan's music:

Its bang bang all over the world. Rocking intro song by Yuvan made the movie to rock. Kadhal Aasai with Yuvan style with superb visuals its a treat to audience.

Santhosh Sivan:

Santhosh Sivan cinematography was the great plus point in this movie. His visuals of Mumbai was awesome.

Weakness:

Story and Screenplay:

As a much awaited Don story it doesn't have any daring scenes. Billa 2 was not a huge hit, but its having many mass scenes which is missing in this movie. Movie goes very slow and its too boring in some scenes.

Length of the movie:

Length of the movie is almost 2 hrs 50 min which is another minus point. There are many unnecessary scenes such as Surya, Vidyut and Samantha dances for Hindi songs and Ek Tho Theen song (which cant be removed as it is sung by Surya).

Twists and turns:

There are too many twists and turns in the movie which are easily predictable by audience. Whatever Lingu thought its gonna be a great twist was guessed by most of the audience easily.

Vidyut Role:

After Billa2 and Thuppaki Vidyut is doing his 3rd film in Tamil. In 1st two movies Vidyut role was awe somatic, there were many fan followers even though he was a villain. But in Anjaan he doesn't have a good role. Only one fight with Main villain was good. There is not much expected chemistry for Surya and Vidyut.

Facebook comments :

There are some Facebook comments to be noted

"Viswa Bhai is better than Raju Bhai"

"Both Vishwa and Raju Bhai failed to impress the audience"

"Before release Anjaan will be like Baatcha for Rajini, Billa for Ajith, Thuppaaki for Vijay. After release Anjaan is like Baaba for Rajini, Alwar for Ajith, Sura for Vijay.
