Don

The director probably tried to sneak as much as comedy in this film which made it into a mess!

Everything was good enough to make family audience happy!

But there was a lot of illogical scenes in this movie! The student vs principal thing would never happen in reality!

The only good thing in this film is SK, Ani's Music and last 20 minutes!

The father sentiment worked really well!

Overall: 6/10.

College Don is the movie I needed to see . The first half of the movie itself is Comic Relief of the Movie ,laughed all the way through Intermission. Some scenes are straight up absurd. The love story was good .S J Surya gave a great performance as Principle but the highlight of the movie is the father son relationship between Sivakarthikeyan and Samuthrakani.

Oh my... Samuthrakani's performance is top notch and I understood why is he so hot right now as he's in every other movie I watch. The second half slowly turns into drama and by the time of the climax it takes complete 180 and turns really dark in a good way. This type of Father Son dyanamic is not new but this movie is different in my opinion ,it is so relatable and at times I was watching myself on the big screen and by the end made to think and appreciate my father a bit more.

My Nitpicks are some absurd scenes and a few characters which I was not into and my main nitpick is Anirudh's music , which is not bad but I felt it was basic and generic. I had high expectations from him after the massive success of Beast(by the way I keep the Beast Album on loop at night while sleeping every day since past month) and his consistent great music albums which are completely new and different from each other. Maybe I had unrealistic expectations , maybe this movie really didn't need Beast or Master level Albums whatever ,the fact I didn't like the music remains...

6.9/10.

Good story, funny execution and extraordinary climax portion. The first half till interval it goes like a serial/stage comedy show... Some funny moments are really likeable, like the parent meeting with Suri. Most of SJ Surya acting in first half is comic than terror. The saving grace in first half is that you can relate atleast one character crossed in everyone's college life.

The actual story and some nice sequences starts in the second half only. Some respectful acting of SJ Surya and self realising sequences are captured very well.

The last 40 minutes are make this movie more worthy and make us forgot all the mistakes in the previous portions.

Worth the watch.

A Usual story perceived well, written the best with comedy, romance, and emotions. The precise screenplay flowed the movie with no lags. Best acting by Sivakarthikeyan. Sivakarthikeyan and SJ Suryah opponents the scenes equally and gave out their best performances. As usual, Samuthirakani did his best in his foremost role. Adorable acting by Priyanka Mohan. From comedy, romance, songs, and emotional scenes everything has worked out well. Good editing & cinematography and fair bgm. The director did his best on comedy and emotions, where the emotion hits us at the best part which carries out till the last. Fun-filled ride with heaps of pressed components made the film the best engaging and Entertaining.

Beautiful movie, Humour was on point. Pretty good character arc and a strong message. Hope SK holds up the streak. And a remarkable job by CIBI. Also IMBEEDI allow for shorter reviews.
