Bakasuran

The story starts with a brutal murder and has a parallel narration with Natty and Selvaraghavan characters. The edit points are abrupt and it was just cut in the middle of action. The daughter character wears the same costume in majority of her scenes. The casting could have been better and staging is very bad. The Director seems to have taken just the plot and made emotional only where it needed. The setting look bad in the first half when the character says your brothers daughter died by suicide. Only Sam CS tried to fill the emotionless places with his background score and high pitch notes.

Usually Mohan. G films create controversy at the time of release to their minimal theatrical run whereas this time the scenario is entirely different....with a clear message of smartphones impact among children in the modern era and educating parents' role in handling it is a well-intentioned and director need to be appreciated but a good intentional thought alone can't save a film... The prime thing to be noted is selvaraghavan as a cold-blooded killer scores well and reminds of "SAANI KAYIDHAM", but his performance as an artist or father is questionable miles to go for this actor... On the other hand natty does give a neat performance required for the character.... Sam cs contribution for bgm or opening song is a best thing in a movie hats off to his work.... Overall an insane story with an amazing message makes this flick a one-time watchable above average movie.

It's really sad to see a genius filmmaker turned into an actor just for the sake of his livelihood.

The story is nothing new and the kinda screenplay taken up is also nothing new with a backdrop for a serial killer telling his tale with a not-so-intriguing investigating officer.

I really really hope that Selvaraghavan becomes what he is truly made of, filmmaking, that's where his strengths are and I believe he gets into that zone as quickly as possible and hence wish that this film backfires and marks the end of his acting career and re-starting his directing part.

And moreover, this trend of spreading negative events in female lives needs to stop, it's not doing anything good.

This movie carries an important message for youngsters, including children who use the smartphones and very importantly their parents. Shows how an intruder has come into your home via the Smartphone of your children and about to destroy lives.

Besides the message, excellent acting by the father of the girl, ex-serviceman and many others. Cinematography is also top notch. Movie started off when a temple procession and wondering what is going on. Some random killings happened and you start to wonder. Soon, the momentum built up and it all comes together and makes full sense at the end. So, the story is weaved together very well. Shows expertise in the art of story telling and movie making.

Man is away the entire day earning his livelihood. Wife is preoccupied with housework. Their young daughter is in her room studying, with the door shut. But is she really studying? No. She covertly sends her nude videos to her paramour, who threatens to make these viral if she does not indulge in prostitution. Ultimately she has no option but to commit suicide. Such occurrences are on the rise. Teachers, security guards, cops and hostel wardens are all involved in this appalling scam. Tamil movie #Bakasuran deals with a pertinent topic and boasts of good performances. It certainly needs to be watched by all pubescent women. Running time needs to be reduced by 20 minutes. Rating 3/5.
