Not a good movie. Time waste. Not a good movie. Time waste. Not a good movie. Time waste

One would presume this is a Vijaysethupathi movie so it will be good. Sorry wrong that's not the case here. Nothing new, movie drags on, screenplay and editing is very poor. Because the story does not have any substance or density. The one takeaway message is don't be fooled by getting foreign overseas jobs, more on blue collar, labour oriented jobs and end up in a new country, and becoming a slave. Become a human trafficking victim. Especially the women folks. If you have nothing to do, watch it.

First half dragged on for quite a bit,and would have been better without songs. Romance between Vijay Sethupathi and Anjali was passable but the chemistry between them wasn't that great. Surya Sethupathi put in a good performance as Vijay Sethupathi's sidekick. He didn't seem awkward or lost in any of the scenes and deserves praise,as this is his first movie as an actor. The story picks up pace only in the second half. We are taken on an adventure to Thailand and Cambodia where a sinister syndicate operates a human trafficking ring. It is indeed shocking that cosmetic surgery involving skin grafting has a sinister side to it. All in all, the movie is watchable especially the second half. There are some stunt acts that are hair raising.

Storyline of the movie was good, but screenplay could have been little bit better, some of the twists and turns in the movie were unpredictable, which was the big plus for the movie. There were lots of violence and romance scenes in the movie, which if they had curtailed, could have been watchable with family. Acting of Vijay Sethupathi's son was really good, considering the fact that he had no prior experience!

The movie is not bad as I thought after seeing 5+ avg rating in IMDB. Vijay Sethupathi and Anjali carries the show. Its a commercial storyline though it may seem to be giving some messages in second half (not sure those Thailand things are real), as a commercial movie, you expect the hero to be the saviour of everyone, he can fight, overpower a mass villain just like that etc, etc, don't worry about logic, if you care, you can't watch most of the movies around.

If you like Vijay Sethupathi, you will like the movie. There are laughing moments, romance moments, action, chase. Don't watch a movie with the hero's previous movies in the mind, if you want a movie like Naanum Rowdythaan, then you will have to watch Naanum Rowdythaan again, not this one.
