Enemy

With an wonderful cast, the movie is okayish in many places and awesome in some places. Romantic portions seems forced. It wouldn't have made a difference without the love portions (except for the reason behind the "tum tum" song and engagement).

The concept behind the movie is interesting (though it has already been tried in different tamil movies in different forms, ex: Ullasam, En Swasa Kaatrae). If properly executed, this could have been a racy thriller but we were left with a mildly entertaining Enemy.

The childhood training scenes are the only ones that are interesting & the foundation of the entire film and also the final twist was somewhat convincing enough, other than that, there was nothing notable. It was in fact a disappointment as it comes from a director who writes the fast screenplay. The 2 main characters being played by the prominent actors in one thing that lifts the movie, the heroine role just doesn't fit into the arena at all as usual like most of the Tamil films.

I think Director Anand Shankar is one of the most promising directors of Tamil cinema. He always brings excellent stories to the table and tries to think out of the box which should be appreciated. Having said that, he has struggled with his overall execution mainly by adding unnecessary scenes that ruin the pace.

Just like NOTA, Enemy is unfortunately another victim to this drawback. The movie was really interesting with its plot, action sequences, performances by Vishal and Arya but is once again letdown by scenes that keep on dragging. The love angle for this film was not at all needed at all. There were also some cinematic liberties I felt that made for unrealistic plot devices.

Overall I think the movie was a unique interesting attempt at an action thriller but Shankar still needs to work on his overall direction to deliver with a crisp finished product. Had he smoothed out the edges and got rid of the unnecessary songs and love scenes, I think the film easily could have been another Thupaaki like movie.

Rating: 6/10.

Just a Hype, not excellent movie, just a one time watcher.

Vishal is good, Story also starts well, but does not carry the same weightage till end. Over all one time watch for Arya & Vishal fans.

Overall good movie. 1st half super and 2nd half directed not that well. Scenes are not interesting in 2nd half. High budget with high technical standards. Vishal sir and aarya sir acting pretty good. Songs as usual routine in telugu. Go and watch movie.it satisfy you.
