Greatest of all time, GOAT, is a story of an Anti Terrorist Squad agent Gandhi. Story is a big word here as there is none. What we get is a 3 hour long drag fest of well knitted scenes backed by raucous music, flower pot female character and a generous sparkling of supporting characters.
Vijay as Gandhi and Jeevan was excellent and the de-aging technology worked well. Other than these two aspects, GOAT offers nothing else. The story, if any, is as predictable as sunrise. The needless call backs to Vijay's past movies were done to please the masses. They were abrupt .
The story never settles until the second half of Act 2 and suddenly we get a barrage twists, if which, you would've guessed most of them by that time.
Bottom line, this is not GOAT. This turned out to be a sheep.
