Blue Star

"Blue star" is a usual cricket based drama but seems different by its staging, set-up and conflicts. The first half of the movie is is very engaging with intersting conflicts between 2 local teams. The interval block was good enough, but the second turns out to be a usual cricket drama where the protagonist's team joins a tournament and competing against the ultimate antagonist in the finals. Ashok Selvan has been the main pillar of the movie. His performance was too good. Shanthanu gave a good performance for the character with some flaws in writing. Bhagavan perumal and prithvi who played the characters of Immanuel and Sam gave interesting and suprise performances. Govindh vasantha's 1 song was good and the background score was very good. Cinematography was not great but good enough. Positives are the performances of lead actors, character conflicts in the first half/the entire first half and mainly the dialogues. Negatives are the second half where there is no seriousness in the games after the first match and started to feel repetitive, and the Romance portions were started to feel unwanted after some time. 2nd half fails to speak the politics effectively that have been spoken in first half. On a whole, this a good movie with some flaws.

Bluestar is anything but a sports movie .

It hectors its way into cinematic oblivion with the most convenient and abjectly superficial treatment of subaltern vs the elite , rendering it a caste color where there is none.

This tendency has been a calling card of direcotr Pa Ranjit who seems to resort to easy tropes to justify his hatred for some based on caste . So the old fashioned casteism of the director oozes forth through the movie through a festering sore .

He scratches every shadow and plumbs every pit of his Periyarist casteist mind to find justification for discrimination based on caste .

Patently avoidable bilge.

The blue star as the name suggests a decent movie with all the elements like love fight sentiments emotions politics groups etc. And more cricket. Its a complete package. The screenplay would have been better, better techniques could have been used as more scenes are predictable. The story is not quite different same old one but good. The movie is lagging something, something is missing. Many scenes seems to be unwanted one. The effort from ashok selvan and shantanu has top notch. Their performances were the pillar of the story and pakshu has played an importnat role in this movie. The politics spoken is ok but need efective way to communicate. Overall a good movie can watch it for a time. Please do watch it available in prime.

Well executed movie with decent political agenda and love, family, friendship, nativity and humanity above all. More than all of those, a well taken message is be calm and do what's needed.

Cinematogaphy topnotch.. acting a1.. especially Ashok, Prithvi and of course Shanthanu Would have avoided too much dark tone and hatred speech. Added little more comedy.

Villain was not strong but this storyline doesn't need that. It's an emotion and everyone carried that well except couple characters. Few characters like Venkat which also mentioned that they will change and join this revolution. But they didn't till end.

Overall good movie for sports or cricket fan.

Even though this film is about the game of cricket from the outside, it really tells a lot of things that go beyond the game of cricket for me.

Unlike other films that I have seen, in these films, the heroine is given an important role.

It's amazing to be able to come up with such a beautiful film on such a shoestring budget.

It has been made in a way that even the simpleton can easily understand. So everyone who comes out after watching this movie will have the above thought that this movie is a great movie and will be a great time source without any doubt.

All the cricketers in this film have performed very well.
