Joshua: Imai Pol Kaka

Didn't watch a film such this film authentic since it reminded me Tamil version of Jones Wicks though it met 100%. The action of Varun is worth to be appreciated for it is pettish triumph to Hollywood Cultured action movie. Exaggeration is neglected through out the film.love affairs and romantic scenes in the manner of Hollywood which I truly expect in the movies. John wicks thriller movie of killing with gun but this film slightly followed the steps of Jone Wicks with Tamil conversation fights scenery.behind the antagonist secrecy is induced towards climax. Finally shocked climax is that her own father is the villain of the born child.

Despite its intriguing premise, the film fails to live up to expectations due to poor direction and uninspired writing. While the action scenes are commendably choreographed and the experimental music by Karthick adds some flavor, the film struggles to engage viewers beyond these moments.

Krishna Kulasekharan delivers a standout performance, bringing depth to his character and serving as a saving grace amidst the film's shortcomings. However, the rest of the cast falls short, lacking the necessary acting prowess to elevate the material.

Director GVM's simplistic and stale writing results in a lackluster narrative that fails to captivate. The film's pacing suffers, particularly during conversational scenes where the dialogue fails to spark interest.

Despite attempts to emulate the success of "John Wick" with a Desi twist, "Lost Potential" ultimately falls flat. While it may appeal to fans of action-packed sequences, its overall execution leaves much to be desired. Viewers are advised to approach with tempered expectations and to focus on the few positives the film has to offer.

For people with class , this will be a good movie , but won't able to win the heart of ordinary audience who's seeking for masala , enjoyed this movie even though performance of some actors are arguable, however in a package it's a good movie and definitely better than captain miller or ennai noki payum thotta.

You will be seating at edge of your seat with the nail biting chasing sequences and the last 30 minutes of the movie is very good , there is some unwanted character bindings in the movie which can be avoided

In overall it's a good attempt by GVM to stay away from usual template of indian movies.

What a trainwreck of a film! GVM has fallen to the lowest of lows in the writing department - there's absolutely no redeeming element in the screenplay. The characters are boring, the treatment is serious (but not pulpy), the twists are banal, and the performances are atrocious. Varun struggles big time to carry the film on his shoulders, and while he's okay in the set pieces, he's abysmal in the romantic segments. Raahei, who plays his love interest, is equally bad. She plays a damsel-in-distress of the supermarket variety, replete with countless moments of being dragged out on roads, cars, and buildings.

I think GVM put on his ENPT/AYM cap once more while writing and shooting the second half. And here I was, thinking Varun and Raahei would run away with the "worst performer" honors. Nope, therein comes the main antagonist (no, not Krishna) in an awful twist, performing like he just dropped out of Big Boss. The entire climactic segment was just painful to sit through. Ppaa, thaanga mudiyale. Baba Sehgal from AYM can rest easy now. GVM and Atlee have one thing in common - no one (..and I mean, NO ONE) can rip off their own movies as effectively as themselves. The only one who understood the assignment was Karthik, who delivered a decent soundtrack.

P. S. I hope GVM gets to move past this mess, along with the financial mess he's in for Dhruva Natchathiram.

P. P. S. I was the only one laughing when I saw "Yannick Ben, Hong Kong" written on an airport placard in one of the scenes. Cool name for a random mercenary indeed, though he's the film's stunt choreographer.

A contract killer turned bodyguard trying to protect his love interest from international bad elements.

Though the movie had considerable budget, the execution was terrible.

Listing them in points:

1. Acting was horrible, especially of Varun's. There was no expression at all, with so much stunt training going on, I think he skipped basic acting lessons.

2. The movie is basically a copy of Hitman's bodyguard, Bodyguard series (Netflix), John Wick, Bourne and 100 other movies. Just made with low quality.

3. GVM, in the name of so called "classy movie" has made this movie with cringe filled redundant scenes. The generous use of "English" in his movie doesn't mean it's synonymous to international standards or quality. One easily gets distracted from a scene in just a couple of minutes.

4. Lot of logic loopholes with forced and predictable scenes. In fact a movie need not have a well defined good story, even a simple story could be well executed in a good way through screenplay, cinematography and dialogues but this movie didn't have any of those things

At the end it is just an action movie overshadowed by terrible acting and poor story. Watch if you don't want to use your brain much.
