[Amazon] Although less accomplished than his two previous films, director Lokesh Kanagaraj achieves commercial entertainment that shines at times. It highlights the villain Vijay Sethupathi plays, dark enough to confront Vijay's much more topical hero. There are good action scenes and musical numbers with a spectacular soundtrack. It's everything you can ask for in a Tamil entertainment product like this one, but also a step back in the director's filmography.

I loved it so much omggggg this whole movie is an aesthetic.

I had found _Bigil_ a bit disappointing (especially after _Sarkar_) but this movie is perfection! It's pretty fresh (e.g. no long, hideous backstory...not that I'm opposed to a good backstory) and Vijay Sethupathi played an AMAZING villiain — it was truly a treat to watch. And I haven't seen anything by this director before but I'm so impressed! His style is pretty unique and individualistic compared to a lot of Kollywood, and I loved the little details like the retro blue car, Vijay's ringtone, and the fancy alcohol bottles. And that whole [spoiler]bow and arrow[/spoiler] scene at the end? Absolutely fantastic - I ate it up. The interesting shots/composition and editing choices were a delight to behold and I adored the fun ways in which music was used throughout the film.

I'm so pleased!!

EDIT: Almost forgot to mention but that Ghilli reference and the final backstory joke killed me skfhjsilfhf I adore this film.

Almost 3 hours of fun filled entertainment and enjoyment. Good movie with no unwanted romance. 8/10
