Karthi has been having a stunning year with three grand releases. Starting with his Rural flick Viruman, to the Blockbuster Ponniyin Selvan to now the Diwali release, Sardar, things have worked out just great for him.
Sardar is a movie about an attention seeking, Media friendly cop, Vijay Prakash, who has a past he wants to forget, gets a case that gives a major case that digs up many of his past horrors. How he starts facing that forms the crux of the story.
Karthi is absolutely stunning in this film and he sure definitely did a great job pulling of the both the roles of the police and the spy. Both Raashi Khanna and Rajisha Vijayan fit their roles and does their part well.
Laila, even though she had the role that moves the plot, her acting for certain sequences could have been better as it demanded better emotions. Chunky Pandey, is again the run of the mill millionare who wants nothing but do take the country under his control, and this time it is water. Rithwik, does pull some attention from the audiences but again passes as the over enthusiastic kid who can get away with anything.
Mithran does a good job to keep the audiences pinned to the screen as the screen play is definitely racy and presents the right platform for a complete action entertainer. He skilfully blends the water issue with many research materials which is quite impressive but as any movie, this movie looses track towards the climax portions and it may be passed on as a preachy film.
The action choreographer, Dhilip Subbarayan does do a commendable job and most of the action set pieces are very wonderful to look at. George C Williams with the camera does bring the magnificent canvas that Mithran wants to show us.
But this technically good film with a good story suffers from a few generic scenes and the very generic climax with a villain who we know will hate as he has many shades from different movies that we have already seen from Kaththi to Bhoomi recently. Also the movie could have been cut short as the movie only took off from the Pre interval sequence.
A good watch for family audeinces to enjoy, and with Karthi's and the other good performances, this is an above average movie going experience.
