The Greatest of All Time

Snapchat and insta filters was used in the first scene and most of the vfx work. VFX cringe was at peak. It was a ok movie not at all a greatest of all time. Nowadays high Background music and slow-mo walk became mass scene for the audience.

Greatest of all time, GOAT, is a story of an Anti Terrorist Squad agent Gandhi. Story is a big word here as there is none. What we get is a 3 hour long drag fest of well knitted scenes backed by raucous music, flower pot female character and a generous sparkling of supporting characters.

Vijay as Gandhi and Jeevan was excellent and the de-aging technology worked well. Other than these two aspects, GOAT offers nothing else. The story, if any, is as predictable as sunrise. The needless call backs to Vijay's past movies were done to please the masses. They were abrupt .

The story never settles until the second half of Act 2 and suddenly we get a barrage twists, if which, you would've guessed most of them by that time.

Bottom line, this is not GOAT. This turned out to be a sheep.

The same issue like previous Vijay movies since Mersal, promises so much, only to flatter to deceive

And it's usual Thalapathy show all the way, he tried as hard as he can to save the day, by donning the Ilayathalapathy character as well, but the script offered him only so much, after a point, it's exhausting.

Rest of the cast have got absolutely nothing character or story wise, but the most laughable character is Meenakshi's, even GK character was better than this.

Technically, it doesn't feel we are watching a big budget movie, shaky cinematography, movie needs serious trimming of 20-25 minutes, action was fine in bits and pieces, Yuvan's work is outright disaster, neither the songs worked nor BGM, horrible. De-ageing looked decent, but the VFX and production values are average.

Coming to Venkat Prabhu, on paper, this looks a good idea, 1st half was decently engaging, but second half was below par. Few meta references, cameos worked, but this needed MANKATHA Level direction.

Bottomline: Watch it if you wanna see the sinister side of Vijay.

Mix of all Tamil movies. Worthy scenes but it doesn't rhyme with the story. Too many loopholes

Movie starts with a bang. However the cascading scenes make us tired and creates a fatigue to watch further. Unnecessary casting. If you remove all the songs in the movie too, you can watch it without missing the story. Movie is running only for fanbase.

Violence scenes are to gore and horrific, even it is shown for few seconds on screen. I don't whose idea is to child violence in the movies. Pathetic.

The protagonist travels from one place to other but we don't understand purpose/logic behind the travels or for the useless missions.

The movie feels like it was made primarily for the fans, with little attention given to crafting a compelling storyline. Unfortunately, the plot is quite weak, failing to engage the audience effectively. The background music (BGM) doesn't add much value and lacks the impact that could have elevated key moments.

Visually, the movie also falls short, with subpar makeup and VFX that don't meet expectations, leaving certain scenes underwhelming. There are some cameo appearances, but they do little to lift the overall experience.

In conclusion, the movie is an average offering that serves as a one-time watch. It's clear that fans might appreciate it more, but for the general audience, it doesn't deliver anything exceptional.
