The most awaited movie of the year. I want to make 2 things clear before the review:
1. I am a hardcore Rajini fan for his on screen persona. Not fanatic. So the expectation is to see his style and charm 2. The teaser gave an impression of ageing don coming back to take revenge
The movie starts off with a great tone with Rajini walking out of prison with style immediately following with his punch dialogue and fights. Then who vows to conquer back what he lost. Then the movie also loses this plot and goes in search of his wife and daughter. The new dons ruling Malaysia tries to kill him and he kills them in climax. Of course I am not expecting logical and brilliant screenplay. I in fact don't mind predictability but it should be pursued through style if you have actor like Rajini
Plus 1. Out and out Rajini. He carries the burden of the whole film 2. Initial few scenes giving a different impression of the movie 3. Background score. I am sure that this title music is the best after Annamalai
Negative 1. Movie going into emotional tone losing the plot. Bit dragging 2. Songs - forgettable except Neruppuda 3. Lack of Rajini scenes 4. Failed to capitalise the flash back scenes with Rajini's character
Overall, if you are non Rajini fan, you may like the movie. If you are a Rajni mass lover, you will definitely miss something in the movie
In short, if you want the same impact as that of the teaser of the film, watch the first 15 minutes and last 15 minutes of the movie
