Weapon (2024) - A good effort, but the execution was too lame.
Tamil Writer director Guhan Senniappan tells the Scifi story of mysterious super serum developed by Hitler, how it was smuggled to India, finally forming a superhuman with Telekinesis and super strength.
The director tried to make high octane scfi subject, a great concept, a real shout out for him to think theses kind of subjects from the Tamil film industry.
Great cast, new concept, but failed to execute correctly, looked very childish and campy. With a reworked screenplay and a more subtle approach to the sci-fi elements, it could have been a great movie. The potential was evident, and for that intention, this movie deserves a 6/10.

Zero Acting from Lead actor . Superhero movie with some copied scenes from Marvel Movies.
No Story , 100% Plot Holes . Many people were seen sleeping in theatres.
I have to agree with all the people who got this right and gave it one star and the deserving negative reviews.
I am sorry I haven't left the cinema, like some people did, I won't get back my lost time. Everything bad thing you have heard about this movie is TRUE. You care ZERO about the characters. Its like the writers and director were focusing on.......other things they thought were more important instead of good story telling, a good script.

This is first time in Hollywood, we have sci-fi concept with superhero. The concept of saving nature applauded everywhere, and how a movie that brings in superhero/s to do this . The message for larger audience and great leaders to adopt saving environment for future generations. The actors and all the crew have shown great talent with a lots of twist and turn. It is a great movie for family and youngster to watch and filled with trill. It will be great that Million studio further develops concepts that good for well being of mankind with some commercial aspects . I would recommend the movie to all my friends and family members. We do not want horror movie, movie that brings sadness and too much emotional involvement. What is important for movie goers is entertainment with laughter, fiction, fantasy and some message for generations.

This is the best movie of 2024. We all are brought up from the MCU/DC stories. This is similar to that. Best thing is sathyaraj can adapt to any character highlight point. Vasanth Ravi also is capable of adapting to any character. Lots of twists and turns worthy movie .I feel sad that it is not marketed as it should be blockbuster movie. Villian Rajeev Menon has done a exception in acting in this one. VFX is in par with Hollywood movies. Greatest battle always come within the closest people. Good vs Bad . Good Bgms to highlight the action fights. 👌Worthy movie check this out in theatre.
10/10.

The core subject is about a superhero serum and it is established with a solid backstory in the form of a voice-over. But post that the film goes into a full-on clumsy space by trying to sandwich so many fillings within a wafer-thin plot. As it is, the narrative is confusing due to unwanted complications, nowhere native as the writing feels alien and heavily influenced by a lot of Hollywood movies. Many useless chunks, such as Ghost, Black Society, Flawless Corporation, Skull Gang, etc... Unlike the director's intention, none of these elements give an international touch to the film, the content should have but it failed miserably. Something is constantly happening at a rushed pace, yet the screenplay is a crashing bore as it is possible to connect with the tonnes and tonnes of situations and characters the film involves. After it is revealed that Sathyaraj is the superhuman in the interval, the flow worsens and behaves like a spoof material as many tend to be serious plot-points land as jokes. A couple of decent twists towards the end, but since they came out of nowhere, there is no shock value. Also, how the film utilized the twists is again crappy. A wannabe racy actioner acts like a serial at times as every other scene introduces a new character with a lame purpose to be around. Ends by giving a lead for a sequel, the team's confidence is appreciable, wish they made the movie with the same level of determination.

It's basically a b grade Tamil movie of superheroes. The lead actor is cute so I make it a point to watch his movies. Good story good CGI it actually wasn't all that horrible . These type of movies should be encouraged . If promoted in a grand level it could of been a blockbuster . Watched it on Tamil gun. Sathayaraj what role can he not do . He owned the film . I enjoyed it I think you will too . Good entertainment on a boring night. Loop holes obviously but still good enough . I hope they make the sequel it has all potential to have one when they are dishing our garbage and forcing sequals like Indian 2 why not this movie .
