Garudan

Good direction, there is plenty of room for improvement. Soori has performed well. Definitely a good watch and a good movie that came off lately.

Unni mukundan could have done better, 2nd half was a bit too lengthy, I feel closing scenes could have been done a little better.

Camera and direction was good, stunt for sooris fight scenes were good, no extravagant fight where the villans fly like we have seen in the other movies.

Some characters could have been avoided made no use, and could have added more content during those times.

I can say one of the best Tamil movie scenes seen in the recent past.

This film ambitiously tackles three significant issues that affect the human experience in the countryside, presenting them in a raw and unfiltered manner. However, it falls short in key areas of storytelling, editing, and screenplay, which are crucial for a compelling narrative.

The strength of the story and the actors' performances are engaging, with each actor striving to deliver their best. Yet, the film often breaks immersion, pointing out its own highlights rather than letting the viewer discover them organically. This is somewhat forgivable considering the involvement of upcoming actors, where certain faults can be overlooked.

Despite its shortcomings, the film manages to be an average watch. The fulfillment one seeks from a complete cinematic experience is not fully realized here. The potential is evident, but the execution does not rise to meet it.

I'm still baffled by how Soori was insufferable as a comedian and is yet somehow sincere and naturalistic as a lead actor. Only his second movie in the lead following Vetrimaran's underrated "Viduthalai" last year, Soori delivers an impressive showcase of range and character in this gripping tale of family, loyalty, greed and jealousy.

R. S. Durai Senthilkumar's "Garudan" might not be a very pretty entry in the list of good Tamil movies this year, but it's effective and rich in its complex study of familial relationships. Each character is very well crafted and the way in which they all interact with each other speaks volumes to the amount of care the writers had towards telling an effective story. Sure, there are times when it could be a tad predictable, but it's never too much to be distracting. There's as much action and as much layers underneath said action to make the movie as entertaining as it is emotional. Where this movie shines the most is where it draws the line, as it consistently skirts the line of excessiveness without ever crossing into it. It's aware of its own scope and does well enough to stick within it, making any slip up (which of course there are many of) forgivable.

It's not a movie I went into expecting anything, but walked out of it pretty satisfied with what I watched. It's very worth your time and I would happily recommend you check it out!

I went to this movie randomly and I was shocked to see this movie. A great acting by SasiKumar, Soori and Unni, interesting screenplay by the director.

Sasikumar, Soori and Unni acted perfectly driven the character and made us to the edge of the seat in the interval block. This story revolves around two friends and who protect the temple and friendship.

Soori - He gave the best and elevates the character he played.

Sasikumar - Played the character that he never played.

Unni - He played another important role which supports the story.

You will seriously enjoy and talk about this movie and fully satisfied with the movie. #Rock #Soori #Sasikumar #Unni.

A corrupt minister eyes for grabbing an unclaimed land dedicated to a temple. He plans to steal the original land documents kept at a bank's safe locker. Meanwhile Inspector Muthuvel is tasked to gather all the information about Karuna, Aadhi and Karuna's loyalist Sokkan, as these three are the main hurdle for the minister. The main root cause for all problems - land, money and women. These causes rift between Karuna and Aadhi whereas Sokkan getting caught in between. His loyalty comes at a hefty price as the rift leads to betrayal and murder. How Sokkan rushes karma over the real culprits while protecting the victims, forms rest of the story.

This rural based story involving a temple's land being a main dispute has a decent premise but the screenplay falters big time. The attempt at narrating this story's conflict through land, money and woman suffers heavily from generic writing right from the beginning. We have a bunch of template baddies and to make it worse, the good ones too are one toned. Aadhi is righteous with anger issues, Karuna is the heir from once a rich family and Sokkan is loyal in an unbearable way. The pace is uneven throughout and the director resorts to unnecessary violence. The half baked love story doesn't help either. In the attempt to glorify Soori as Sokkan and Sasikumar as Aadhi, the scenes remain outdated.
