Bakasuran

This is a story that needed to be told for today's generation. Bakasuran took time to expose online sex trafficking and its repercussions. We were well advised.

How we just wished that the acting and screenplay were more robust to take Bakasuran to higher heights!

DELICIOUS

-We want to appreciate Mohan G for conceiving this story and upholding cultural values👊🏾 Though there were many occasions to make the movie sexual or explicit, Mohan still retained a sense of decency which was very appreciated, and various examples were illustrated to serve as lessons

-There was no heroine or female love interest for the main characters! Thank you for this originality and breaking out from the typical characters

-Not every development or technology is an advancement, it's still crucial to maintain the good side of our cultures and that's exactly what Bakasuran showed

BLAND

-From the lead characters to the supporting cast, no one stood out. It appeared like one person was repeating his lines, then the other followed with his; it wasn't flowing naturally

-Some of the sequences were quite coincidental while others lacked logic, e.g. Arul is telling his assistant how to trap a pimp but this scene takes place outdoors few meters away from the targeted location

-The movie started off in a captivating manner, however, toward ¾ of the film, the pace toned down with a sequence of predictable events.

"Bakasuran" is a Tamil film from 2023 that delves into the world of crime and forced prostitution. While the direction and screenplay of the film may not be particularly memorable, the performances of the actors and the thriller effect it produces are the strengths of this film.

Selvaraghavan, Natatajan Subramaniam, Radha Ravi, K. Rajan, and Ramachandran Durairaj deliver convincing performances that bring credibility to the story. The action scenes and twists throughout the film keep the audience engaged.

However, despite these strengths, "Bakasuran" is not a film for everyone. The subject of forced prostitution may be difficult to watch for some viewers. Additionally, the direction and screenplay were not strong enough to give true depth to the story.

In conclusion, "Bakasuran" is an average Tamil film that will appeal to those who enjoy crime films. I give it a rating of 6/10 and recommend it to Tamil thriller enthusiasts looking for an interesting story and solid performances from the actors.

It's really sad to see a genius filmmaker turned into an actor just for the sake of his livelihood.

The story is nothing new and the kinda screenplay taken up is also nothing new with a backdrop for a serial killer telling his tale with a not-so-intriguing investigating officer.

I really really hope that Selvaraghavan becomes what he is truly made of, filmmaking, that's where his strengths are and I believe he gets into that zone as quickly as possible and hence wish that this film backfires and marks the end of his acting career and re-starting his directing part.

And moreover, this trend of spreading negative events in female lives needs to stop, it's not doing anything good.

I don't know how it got 7/10 rating..what this movie implies?

1)A women rightness and how it should be followed.. 2)You cannot send a women to cities.. 3)Women will take her life if someone blackmails her..bcz her karpu and maanam (honour)is more important than her life.. 4) Solution for all these is violence according to d director..or parents should start 24/7 surveillance of their daughters till she gets married.. Such a cheap patriarchal mindset implying that women hav to be protected..nowhere he talks about educating women or creating awareness among them .. Director should watch ayali..

Usually Mohan. G films create controversy at the time of release to their minimal theatrical run whereas this time the scenario is entirely different....with a clear message of smartphones impact among children in the modern era and educating parents' role in handling it is a well-intentioned and director need to be appreciated but a good intentional thought alone can't save a film... The prime thing to be noted is selvaraghavan as a cold-blooded killer scores well and reminds of "SAANI KAYIDHAM", but his performance as an artist or father is questionable miles to go for this actor... On the other hand natty does give a neat performance required for the character.... Sam cs contribution for bgm or opening song is a best thing in a movie hats off to his work.... Overall an insane story with an amazing message makes this flick a one-time watchable above average movie.
