वारिसु

I'm not opposed to family drama films. But I'm having trouble connecting with this one. A wealthy family is experiencing family conflict. Our hero arrives to preach everyone, making them realize their error and directing them in the right direction. A large mansion with limited people. The restroom alone is the size of a football stadium. Everyone is driving expensive cars and talking about billions of dollars and share market. Majority of the audience members were unfamiliar with the rich life and they were unable to connect with the movie.

Lets come to our hero who preach his mother, father, brother, sister in law, police man, servant, Villans, audience list goes on.. OMG i cant tolerate. U cant forceful keep a preaching dialogue just to show he is some kind of saint. Just one time(accidentally) watchable, such a bore to core.

Movie starts with sentimental note and colourful song. Vijay is in full energy in all aspects, especially in songs. The first 30mins sentiments and most of the second half are more cliche and routine. Prakash raj is in worst form, his character is very average and just irritates.

Later movie starts to go in good entertainer path in first half. Director brings back old Ghilli vijay in comedy scenes and sentiment scenes

The cancer sentiment and tear jerking scenes worked well with feel good way instead of serial way, director succeeded in this writing in first half

All the hype and sentiment went to vein in the highly predictable second half. It has mass moments, but it is diluted with HIGHLY predictable scenes and character.... Not even single scene is original in the second half, all are already done and dusted in masala movies already

One time watchable for the first half and songs....

Varisu is all about family values. No matter how unforgivable one person's mistakes be, if they are family then all is forgiven. Having said that, Varisu sticks to the age old family drama template mixed with masala elements to do justice to it's superstar lead. The rebellious younger son who is ousted from the family makes a comeback to mend the broken family. With enough father-son, mother-son, brothers sentiment, Vamsi Paidipally presents a done to death screenplay as a festival treat.

To speak the positives, the film is lavishly shot with vibrant colors. Vijay seems to having sheer fun playing this character and several ordinary scenes get elevated solely by his performance. With a runtime of 2hrs 50mins, the film is way too long but it is those funny moments with Vijay that makes it almost work. The predictable screenplay, weak villain and weakly written supporting cast doesn't offer anything new content wise. The action scenes too don't stand out. Despite all this, it is not a bad watch at all but Vijay saves it from being entirely bland.

A near commercial and family entertainer with all the mass , songs , humour , fight. BGM was appreciatable. Humour worked in some parts of the film but the youngsters may feel cringe. Thalapathy's dance and the songs was the biggest strength of this film. Stunt scenes was too draggy. Storyplot was old but the screenplay was decent. A proper and neat feast for the Thalapathy fans. Jani's choreography doesnt merge with Thalapthy in my POV. Movie might make someone feel so so draggy especially the climax.

Thalapathy fans , kids and family will enjoy this movie a lot. Youngsters and cinephiles might be get disappointed.

Varisu is vijay's first billingual project. Even his die hard fans were not interested in this film as all of them are waiting for leo.

Plus points are thaman's foot tapping songs and vijay's dance in them. Some combination scenes between vijay and yogi babu were nice.

The biggest negative of varisu is that its so predictable. Each and every scene you can guess what will happen next and you will be right. The film is too long. Production designs are lavish but everything looks artificial. The drama is of serial level. Even though, dad character is played by sarath kumar, his mannerisms, getup and dialogue delivery reminded me of kamal hassan in vikram.

On the whole, watch varisu without any expectations.
