Maareesan

The first half of the film has been done with a slow pace of screenplay but which is actually needed to the second half writing. Eager begins with the pre interval scene and there film starts to run with many curiosities. Even though the first half was bit slow, but the visuals and there screen presence makes us never bore. Vadivelu and faasil perfectly done their screen presence. An experience of thriller movie you never had before.

Rating - 4/5

A light hearted feel good road travel movie promising a dopamine rush with a robust screenplay and unparalleled performances.

The plot of the story takes us through the road journey of two individuals where one is on a illicit purpose of looting the old man but their coincidental meeting had a purpose that unfolds through the movie.

Sensational writing by Sudheesh Sankar blending relationships, emotions and subtle humour through the movie giving a surprise interval block awaiting some major developments in the story revealing the true shades of the characters. The brilliance of the screenplay is evident from the opening scene metaphorising the journey of the character played by Fahadh. When two epic performers join hands for a movie, it gives an assurance to the audience that the movie will not disappoint if supported by a solid story which has life.

Versatile performances by Vadivelu & Fahadh moving through the shades of their characters in ease and the hit combo is again with a banger. The timing, the gestures and how effortlessly they move into the characters left the audience in awe. Impressive performances by Sithara, Kovai Sarala & Vivek Prasanna.

Good framing by Sivaji perfectly sliced into a feel good entertainer by Sreejith Sarang. Good music and BGM's by Yuvan variating it's dynamics once the movie shifts to top gear in the final half. Big hugs to the director for giving a refreshing cinematic experience.

A truly memorable movie experience giving some beautiful life messages and some positive insights on strange relationships.

A well written and executed movie. Vadivel & Fahad carry the movie. All the other characters couldn't come close to their performance, and Kovai Sarala's casting here doesn't feel right. An otherwise amazing film was marred by a few dragging scenes and the commercial elements in the final 10 minutes.

Maareesan is a well made drama-thriller that follows thaya(a thief who's has been just released from a case)and an old man named pillai(an Alzheimer patient who's struggling with his life)performed by two exceptional actors Fahad fasil and Vadivelu,the two powerful pillars of the film. This isn't a story that is all new but the way they presented it with the screenplay is something that glued me to the screen in the later half unfolding multiple twists. It takes time to build the characters in the first half which might seem slow for some but people should normalise watching slow paced thrillers to get more unique works which gives a good experience overall. Of course it has some flaws and has some odd scenes but that doesn't make this film any weak. Do Watch it in theaters for the experience.
