Overall a decent action film, but could have been better
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.
