VidaaMuyarchi

Have lost hope on AK. The three V's with Shiva have literally made to hate him for his script selection. The last liked movie was Yennai Arinthal. Valimai and Thunivu were kind of bits and pieces movie. When it came from H Vinoth i understood that it was AK who is clueless not putting any effort to get better out of himself even basics like get ups, looks or dialogue delivery

However in Vidaamuyarchi though still not upto Yennai Arinthal it was a good watch. Credit to Magizh. AK is still AK. He acts like he is all goodness and modern version of Maryadha Purushothaman Raman. Loves his wife even if she had an affair, Wastes his bullets, arrows only below the knee of goons and quite funny he never even attempts to kill the villian in the end the villian gets fed up of his begging " en manavi enga"and kills himself. AK's pureness of heart Kind of over kill. The one dialogue he attempt in the petro bunk is cringy and he was rightly called as boomer for that. Thankfully there is no transformation scenes or mass punch dialogue.

Overall a bearable movie from AK after a decade.

Movie actually doesnt has any hooked intro scenes. Even title scene doesnt has the hook to yell. But.... it is completely alri8. The whole movie is slow paced. Im okay with slow paced screenplay. If u loved the goat breaking bad, u wont even point the slow pace as a issue. I dunno maybe i might try new theatres, the theatre promoted it as 4k rgb, the brightness isnt upto the mark. It was gk poonga, manampathy,kancheepuram. The 2nd show actually, there wasnt any wopping crowd. Barely half filled. Whats wondering is the ticket price, 150rs.

The film shows quality, a perfect example for how a fine film should be. The twists actually worked well, the writing of tight situations are worked very well. The feel of lost, actually felt by us. The divorce convincing dialogues are deep and convinced well. There were flashbacks, it was okey, but yet not much detailed. So dialogues fills the gaps. The music wasnt that much notable, but works well with the movie. The music does its part in this art form.

Whats not okay is the predictable story, there will be a scene which shows regina cassandra's flashback. It actually spoiled the engagement. It might be placed at the end of the film(atleast her psychopath behaviour).

In some scenes the story is stretched as per the directors idea, not convincing tbh.

Whats most wierder in this film is the subtitle colour, green. Whose idea is that ?

The second half has the fight sequences, which was intense. The play of two masterminds is barely rememberable in the screen play.

The editing, placing might changed the film's screenplay to make it as a cult film. The bit predictable, stretched story becomes a villain for this movie.

So the movie as a movie fanatic, is worth a watch as a whole package.

But questionable for benchmark lvl box office hits, since it barely satisfies general audience.

This film is not exactly a frame-by-frame remake, but you can definitely spot its inspiration from the movie "Breakdown". However, the makers have spiced things up with a few fresh elements and a few unexpected plot twists, making it an engaging yet lengthy watch.

The storytelling is slow paced but thanks to an intriguing screenplay that keeps you hooked. Unlike the usual Star studded commercial entertainers loaded with formulaic sequences and dance numbers, this film dares to be different.

Now, let's talk about Ajith - the man of the hour! He appears in four distinct looks across different timelines, and except for the black-bearded one (which is debatable), he looks effortlessly stylish and dashing. His performance? One of his career-best! He nails the emotional scenes, dominates the action sequences, and is absolutely charming in the romantic portions.

Trisha, on the other hand, is a vision of beauty, especially in the flashback sequences. Her acting is subtle, natural, and simply top-notch. Together, Ajith and Trisha exude an international charm, making them look like stars straight out of a Hollywood film.

Antagonists Arjun and Regina deliver solid performances, adding more depth to the story. The rest of the cast does a commendable job too.

Coming to the technical aspects - the cinematography is stunning, with world-class color grading that enhances the visuals. The locations are breathtaking, making every frame a treat for the eyes. Music is pleasant, complementing the film well. Sets, costumes, and makeup are meticulously done, adding to the grandeur. And let's not forget the action sequences, which are choreographed brilliantly!

Magizh Thirumeni's direction is commendable.

Overall, this is a stylish, well-crafted film that is definitely worth watching!

This movie truly excels in every aspect, from its well-crafted direction to the powerful background music that enhances every scene. The acting is top-notch, with performances that feel authentic and deeply emotional. The screenplay is gripping, ensuring that every moment is engaging and logically structured. The pacing keeps you hooked, making it a film that never loses momentum. The story carries a strong message, leaving a lasting impact. A must-watch for those who love inspiring and thought-provoking cinema with great rewatch value.

Hatz off the the Vidamuyarchi team for this wonderful movie!!

The only good thing about this movie is that they made a superstar act in a normal movie with zero fan service.

Having said that, the movie is boring, flat, and tests your patience. At least the first half is bearable as it had some hope and a mystery left. The real struggle starts after the intermission. Halfway through the second half, you understand it's a misfire. They could have easily made this movie at least half as interesting as Samar (2013) by having some decent redemption in the second half, but they did not.

Also, the makers misled the audience by the teaser/trailer itself. Anirudh's hyped BGM has no sync with the actual movie. Not sure whose idea was to reveal the antagonists in the teaser/trailer itself, especially when the movie itself has a wafer-thin plot line.

I can go on and on about the mishaps.

Having said that, it's not completely bad like 'Kanguva' or 'Indian 2'. It's a bit more bearable, if that counts.
