Madharaasi

This film marks ARM's comeback to Kollywood and he's back with a bang. This movie has Sivakarthikeyan who's the usual family entertainer, but this film gives him a very different type of character which explores various different emotions and this film really showed how good he is at his job. Anirudh music, it's become a necessity in big hero films and he's yet again proven that's he's the current gen king! Amazing background score and good songs for the emotions that need to be conveyed. The heroine's role had good depth and was a core character in the film, and Rukmini really did a great job with her character. The villains, mainly Vidyut Jamnwal had a almost equal weightage to the hero, pretty much 40:60, but at the end of the day the hero needs his moments and the antagonist's mass went from a BLAST to a dying flame towards the end. The movie was pretty much perfect if not for certain lags and a very very normal, not bad but normal climax. Great cinematography, stunt choreography and locations make this film a must watch. Overall a great love action drama from ARM once again.

One of the fine action from kollywood recent days and ar murugadoss come back and anirudh misic elevates movie and sk acting 100% vidyut fights the finest and rukmini is the boost for the film nice weekend movie. Interval brings boost for the second half and makes to sit without any distraction climax is bit lengthy.

SK 21 is a decent commercial action entertainer that works mainly because of its solid action blocks and Anirudh's powerful background score. The fight sequences are well-choreographed with minimal VFX, giving them a raw and realistic feel. Sivakarthikeyan handles the action convincingly, and his chemistry with Rukmini Vasanth adds some freshness. The heroine isn't wasted either, as her role actually contributes to the story.

The first half moves at a moderate pace with some predictable love track portions, while the second half picks up with stronger action and hero-villain moments, especially against Vidyut Jamwal. Murugadoss doesn't deliver a groundbreaking comeback, but he plays it safe and certainly does better than his recent outings.

On the downside, the screenplay feels formulaic with familiar beats, and the songs are average compared to the rousing BGM. Still, with its action, mass moments, and theatre-friendly presentation, the film delivers a passable experience for fans of commercial masala cinema.

Verdict: Not a grand comeback, but a good step forward for Murugadoss and SK. Worth a watch in theatres if you enjoy action-packed entertainers.

Everyone in the movie portrayed their characters very well. SK and Vidyut chemistry in fight scenes were good. Rukmini acted well. Overall story is the backbone of the movie. However, the usual Anirudh's style of lifting the scenes with BGM did not work or was not worked for in the movie. Two special mentions abouts the movie: 1. The way both love and action parts of the stories were combined without any blemishes. 2. Climax fight stunts and Cinematography for the climax were a solid 10/10. Overall a banger movie, Except the 1 major negative point, including 3 songs in the first half didn't mingle well with the story line and hurts the pace of the movie.

I just watched Madharasi and I'm still reeling from the non-stop action! The stunts were insane, the plot was gripping, and the actors nailed their roles. Sivakarthikeyan vere level mass acting .

The movie's pacing was perfect, with just the right amount of suspense and humor. The villain was terrifying, and the hero's determination was inspiring.

Overall, madharasi is a must-watch for action fans! 5/5 stars from me!
