Commercial cinema beat Gautam Tinnanuri
Kingdom is a Very good story.
If directed better, it could have been a comeback for Vijay.
I'd not say directed better, it's more of editted better.
Whenever I feel like I'm getting to something, it disconnects.
Vijay character was justified half, Satya to 25% and Bhagya to 1%???
In jersey Shraddha and Nani made cinema as it was meant and it's a hit!
That's missed here,,, if Satya had a back story, if Vijay fitted in that slowly and Bhagya was a part of it - I'd guarantee a HIT.
But, it's a cinema - Hits and flops.
That apart, Kingdom was beautiful in pieces, and the Dop is top notch with the given budget.
Anirudh shined for only 30-40 % of the cinema and that's understandable.
Hridiyam lopala was missing man, you lost 10 marks there only. You can't deny it.
Setup is there and pay off as well but all in a hurry.
Underdog Vijay, suddenly overshadows Satya who's word is a shashanam for his people and it happens just like that.
There are few such scenes which disconnected me from story multiple times.
The part 1-2 trend has one more victim now!
Still, a one time watch movie for many things and only once for many other thing's!
