Kanguva is a historically overacted and confusing story, and star minus with scary and over makeup and larger then life action seens make you believe that you are wasting your time, all cast and crew are fail to believe us in their story. Above all they are started with roman emperors attack on their places with 25k solider but they are fighting with each other!!! What about the 25k solider who are coming to India to rule, who made them go back?? Why they are disappear? Editing is also very poor you just can't understand what is going on, no evidence of motive or reson why they boy is looking to meet Surya!!!
Kanguva is a most anticipated movie I also expected more in that movie but yesterday while I am seeing the movie totally I was disappointed. Total film length is 2 hrs 30 mins but it felt like 3 hrs and above very poor screenplay and story line is simple , everybody is shouting in the movie which makes us to get headache, Music and ost is also not up to the mark .
Positive : Art department , & Vfx team making wise kanguva is a strong. DOP is also good
Negative : No proper screenplay, story line , casting , music , sound design is the worst ears are paining, cameos doesn't work well.
If you want to experience this movie in theatre means go and watch for an entertainment but not to waste the money means watch it in OTT .

First feeling I had that this is going to be a great entertainment. Reality is far from my expectations. What a waste of producers money. I was expecting something interesting to happen for first 50mins... not even one single captivating scene. Not worth watching. Please do t waste your money / time. Very very poor plot... there is no story telling skills. It's time for retirement for Director Siva. I should agree that a lot of money spent on makeup and background setting. With no story, rest everything is just useless.
Another that messes up experience - too much western culture setup.... Entire movie is boring.

A movie which lost sight of its intention. No matter how good the cinematography, acting, action, graphics... An overdose of it is definitely not enjoyable. Do these directors watch the movie from the point of view of an audience... We can't sit for 2.5 hours and watch people kill each other in a variety of ways. I wish they had focused on having a proper story also. This is not a good direction that our movies are heading towards... Violence...aggression.. revenge.. how is that enjoyable. There's no relief between the violent scenes. Too much screaming, graphic violence. This movie is not a pleasant watch for sure.
"Kanguva" is a visually impressive action film that unfortunately lacks the emotional depth and compelling villain needed to truly elevate it to greatness. While Suriya delivers an award-worthy performance and the action sequences are spectacular, the film falls short in its storytelling and character development.
Suriya's transformation and dedication to the role are truly commendable. He commands the screen with his presence and delivers a powerful performance that is both physically impressive and emotionally resonant. The action sequences are a visual treat, showcasing Suriya's skills and the film's impressive special effects.
However, the film's narrative feels somewhat disjointed and lacks a strong emotional core. The flashback sequences, while visually stunning, fail to establish a truly compelling villain or create a strong emotional connection with the audience. The lack of a formidable antagonist diminishes the impact of the hero's journey and the overall stakes of the film.
Despite its shortcomings, "Kanguva" is an entertaining action film with impressive visuals and a standout performance from Suriya. However, its lack of emotional depth and a compelling villain prevent it from reaching its full potential.

Watch Suriya, Disha Patani, and Director Siva as they discuss breathtaking shoot locations and why Bobby Deol was perfect as the menacing villain.
