Valimai

Well i come from Maharashtra and i knew not much about Ajith i had seen his transformation scene on YouTube,that's it. Then my dear friend recommended me one of his film i.e. Mankatha and i extremely liked that film and within week this films trailer had dropped which i liked so to say i was excited is an understatement.

This is without a doubt one of favourite films of the year the action set peieces are meticulously choreographed. The characters are relatable and that is the reason why this film work, the acting by all the cast members are good but the best thing about the film is the direction and cinematography.

Overall very good film that you can enjoy with family.

*PG7*

A action packed film, stunts were outstanding. Stunts & action sequence hyped the movie. When it comes to story there's nothing in it. Unengaging screenplay, unnecessary emotional scenes. If felth that Ajith sir was dull in the starting 20mins. Choreography could've been more better, Ajith anna's dance could've been avoided. I really hated the cinematography & lighting in the starting 30mins of this movie. I expected some story in the film.

In whole Pakka Mass packed film.

My rating is 6.7/ 10.

Nowadays in tamil cinema when it comes to big stars , director concentrate on satisfying thier fans rather what cinema is. Pathetic a director lost his path. We have lost a potential young director .Ajith ,Vijay need to leave thier mass hero subject and play a real actors role ,a hero among us kind of a role,if not I'm sure cinema is going to let them down in the way.

H. Vinoth tries to blend an unbearably soapy family drama with the aesthetics of an action thriller to underwhelming results in Valimai. The generic sentimental scenes (with overly moralistic overtones) ruin all the excitement of the intermittently well-done set-pieces. The cat-and-mouse game between the protagonist (a righteous cop played by Ajith Kumar) and the antagonist (the leader of a nihilistic biker gang, played by Kartikeya Gummakonda) isn't exhilarating, or rather, the screenplay doesn't build it up that well. But Vinoth excels in staging the set-pieces, and that's what makes you occasionally sit up. At 3 hours, Valimai becomes a chore to sit through because style can only do so much to keep you invested in a film that frequently gets preachy on "Amma paasam."

A police officer tries to catch the principal offender who's the main reason for the crimes happens in a city.

Though this film follow some commercial templates, the essence of this film was so clear and didn't fades away at any point. And this film addresses some real crime numbers that were still continuing in the city. The reason for the crimes, why it's happening, and what's the problem with the person who commits the crime was showcased clearly. Ajith Kumar and the stunt sequences in this film were the main reason to holds the audience. Ajith's presence in each scenes gives the goosebumps especially the intro scene and his stunt scenes. The action sequences were so good. And want to tell mainly that the performance of kartikeya was so good and he handles all type of emotions well. And he is the perfect villian option for this film and for Ajith also. Imagine, how should an actor be powerful and fit to play a role/villain against Ajith as he itself a perfect villan and hero. The cinematographer and editor gave their work good and I think they did their best because the cinematography and editing was the reason to the action sequences came out so well. The back ground score was good and gives goosebumps. Finally the director H Vinoth, he tried his best to maintain the essence of the film till end and yeah definitely he won in that. But where he missed out was he followed some commercial templates as it felt disappointed came from him. Other than that his direction was so good and the way he potrayed the crime scenes was awesome. The solution he gave at the end was acceptable and he gave the solution from his point and it suits well.
