Yaathisai

RATED 7/10 Language: Tamil Source: Amazon prime

First we need to appreciate the director for choosing this subject and stick to the authenticity as close as possible. That too with all new faces. It is so impressive. And it worked and gave lot of awe moments here and there in the movie....

Now come to negatives - Please lower your expectations. This is not a great entertainer and war sequences are so repetitive. The story is wafer thin and they tried the magic with the ancient touch. The camera work is great and locations are fine. But that also get repetitive more.

Lower your expectation, you might like it.

What if you see a historical fiction on kings and wars, but the protagonist is not the Baahubali King but rather an unknown man who lost his clan and livelihood.

The movie is interesting that it did not take a stand on war (or) the protagonist but it just follows sequence of events around "losing and gaining back authority" and the lives and tribes lost for the same. The politics is brilliantly shown and also underlies the fate of small clans that supports these big kings and their authority also.

The production value is below par for such a good story and hope the makers rectify it if there is any sequel!!

Better than PS 1-2 Best history drama movie.

A fun amazing time while watching this movie Stop just watch it before deny.

Best thing about it is that they manage to make this epic movie with low budget As a matter of fact we can see that in sometimes that this movie is low but great And the acting is great good cast of choice.

Most of the time the actors were really good we can see that It's way better than PS.

A fun great movie one of the best best movie in 2023

Good attempt

First of all appreciation to the whole team for this attempt . Yaathisai is a historical fiction that takes place in 7th century and had great potential . Dharani Rajendran in his debut did a great job in his writing , we can easily notice that they did a great research work , for example Einar clan's slang of Tamil was totally different and you can only understand the their dialogues with the help of subtitles . War sequences were well shot and well edited despite minimal graphics and minimal crowd . Major drawback of the movie was budget constraints , it draws a line between the audience and movie because most of the scenes fails to convey or register what's going on , just felt like bunch of scenes tied up together . Performance wise Cast did decent job . Cinematography and visuals were really good and eye pleasing on big screen . Music could've been better .

Overall , with good budget , better cast and better making this film could've been something spectacular in Indian cinema but yet good attempt with minimal resources . Watchable one .

This isn't a movie. The Life of Art.

The scenery is how it is, and neither the Tamil people nor Auravaram are painted.

This is not being overstated.

Extremely good original.

Tamil people should rejoice over this.

A tremendous epic that the public has celebrated.

Greetings to the crew and director.

A good effort was made by the producer and director to finance this film.

Every new character gave their finest performance.

Kothi the real hero of the movie also that's man apocalypto character it's amazing.

This movie's battle scene and performances are far superior than those in PS1 and PS2.

The filmmaker would have advanced it for the film and in promotion if money wasn't an issue. Good work, team. Waiting for part 2.

Congrats team #Yathisai.
