Thalaivar getup+SaNa BGM= Masslevel

Soft and silent screenplay..There was an expection of mass action since it is a Gangster movie..But it was quite shown in a different shade about a Gangster...filled with love sentiment and ofcourse Rajinism..
Ranjith has shown the current energy of Thalaivar...I expect more such old getup movies by him.
Overall worth watching...not an average one...its in a class such a way it will be loved by Hollywood movie fans too.

Good Attempt but not fully satisfactory to Fans
on

Extraordinary Acting by Rajinikanth, BGM is awesome, A Special applause to Costume Designer and Lyric Writter. As a Director, Pa. Ranjith has crests and troughs in the movie, overall its a good little winning attempt. The only drawback which I felt is the characters other than Rajini, only Rajini rocks the screen frame by frame and no others shines before him, I don't know why Ranjith had kept such non cachy shots where all characters not blasts. For Fans who loves Basha, Padayappa, Muthu, Shivaji, etc.. comes with lot of expectations post the teaser victory, I am sure that its a disappointing movie. For the fans who love the actor Rajinikanth, its a tuttyfruity movie to them.

A movie that is as I expected, with Thalaivar playing it very subtle and his charisma & screen presence to makes the magic. Thanks to Ranjith for presenting ‪thalaivar‬ at vera level. Santhosh music one word ‪Gethu‬. People who went with an expectation of Mass Rajini film will be disappointed. overall Mikka ‪Magizhchi‬
