Leo

It's a pure action entertainer with a perfect first half, followed by a decent second half. Except for the car chase sequence and the final action sequence, it was lit. I'm not saying those were bad, but they pushed the limits of physics and logic to the extreme. Other than some minor issues in the screenplay, I thought it was a pretty good movie. Personally, I loved watching the movie in a houseful theater. I don't know if it will be the same when it comes out on digital platforms, so go watch it in theaters. Not having high expectations will also help you enjoy the movie better. Can't wait to see the next installments in the LCU🔥🔥

Short Review: Good - Music, Stunts, Cinematography, Acting

Bad - Weak story, Weak villain

The whole movie was a character Intro forcefully extended into a film. Absolutely unnecessary.

Long Review: The Intro and biting into the movie was good. Fight stunts were really good (Vijay did his part well). But chase scene in the mid of movie was awful to watch with over the top physics and Many of the fight scenes were really exaggerated like 1 vs 1000 people, really stupid.

VFX on some scenes were really exceptional but in some other scenes (mid chase) were really awful to watch, looks like they rushed the post production here.

Cinematography in overall movie was done really great(Loki Trademark) even though the VFX failed in certain portions.

Story & Character building were absent in this movie which was the biggest disappointment that basically bored and killed the enthusiasm of the audience.

There was only one thing to which the Movie was hanging on to until the end i.e. If Leo is in LCU( Lokesh Cinematic Universe) or not. That's pretty much it.

This is Loki's worst movie in his career so far. One time watchable for the fans and nothing more.

Leo is not up to expectations, several trailers were merged into a single movie. Every 15 minutes a main character is introduced with hype which added some energy to movie so spectators can get some enjoyment. Villains in 2nd half is big let down, Sanjay Dutt and Arjun Sarja roles were not written properly. Only one of them is also sufficient for the movie. They don't have any strong reason to go against main character. Sister sentiment was not well established. First half is better than 2nd half. Vijay, Trisha and Gautam Vasudev Menon did excellent job, others even though big names dont have much to add to the movie.

I would like to say this is a must watch theatre experience movie. We can see the best Vijay Film comparing to previous movies. I would like to give a big clap to Lokesh for giving a visual treat. The cinematography is brilliant and we can feel every scene and goosebumps overloaded. As always Anirudh was fire with his music. We can't imagine this movie without him. First half of the movie is very interesting because we get very much curious over every scenes. But the climax portion is not that much good from my point of view. The graphic designers worked very hard to make it realistic and also they achieved it. You have to watch the movie to find if this movie comes under 'LCU'. I'm saying again theatre experience is must for the film and if you miss that it will be a big loss for you.

Lokesh Kanagaraj once again proves his prowess in filmmaking. His name is enough to say that you would have a unique experience in the cinema hall. The single shot fight sequence at the factory made me to leave my mouth wide open for its entirety! I admire Lokesh for the efforts he puts to push the boundaries of tamil cinema.

Vijay really needs a round of applause for his performance and I really appreciate the fact that he agreed to do it in Lokesh's way. I never imagined that Vijay would pull of certain things as these are not something his typical film would have.

Throughout the film you could see the hardwork of the crew be it the cinematography, editing or the CGI. And the result as expected is top notch. Anirudh's score has received a lot of mediocre reviews. Even though it's not upto the mark, I really liked the score made for Arjun and Sanjay Dutt. It's kind of underrated in my opinion.

Having watched David Cronenberg's A History of Violence, I know the twists, turns and whatnot. Despite this, I thoroughly enjoyed Leo. Although I agree that the Das brothers were not intimidating enough and the flashback potion is written poorly, it is not something that would stop the film from being enjoyable.
