Thuppakki

If you come to watch this film for Vijay or ARM or Harris or Santosh or Vidyut. The result is you will return home with an idea of Watching it again. I watched FDFS at 5:00 am in Velan theater in Nanganallur. I saw not only ardent fans but also families who came to watch this film with so much interest. Well you can see this only Vijay movies after Rajini.

Now what about this "Thuppakki"??? Is it fighting for terrorism? or Vijayism? or Patriotism?. One word for ever thing is "Sacrifice". Yes this film tells how an army officer would be in border or with his family, he should not back step for sacrifice. He must be alert and cautious and he must work not only with his muscle but also mind.

The plot: Jagdish(Vijay) who is an Army officer returns home for a vacation to his family. But his family decides to make him get married. But he rejects Nisha(Kajal). Soon he discovers a bombing plot which makes assails whole Mumbai. Then rest of the story how he gets the leader and master mind behind this plot.

Vijay with his unique style of acting excels well in this role. He has stunning physique and active gestures makes fit to the role of Secret Agent. Whether its humor,action,sentiment he delivers with ease and no doubt its one of the best performance of Vijay as all rounder in recent times. Kajal looks mesmerizing with her eyes and dance moves. She is lovable. Satyan supports well the story and his final lines on end of the movie gives kudos to whole Indian Army. Vidyut the brain of sleeper cells made huge impact with his cunning plots and problem solving skills in making quick decisions. His martial background adds extra ARM's intelligent screen play and the execution was so brilliant. We can see as he so cautious in screen play after his box office debacle Ezham arivu. Harrish music is so peppy and everything shot well with Santhosh sivan's cinematography especially "GOOGLE GOOGLE" and "Kutti puli kootam". BG score is major plus point in this film and thanks to Harrish Jayaraj.

So over all this film is best of recent times and its sure winner of Deepavali. If you are a Vijay fan nor ARM fan nor any one, you will watch this film and enjoy with a salute to Indian army.

My over all rating for this film is 10/10

First things first, Vijay has never been revered as a hero of the multiplex crowds.

For someone with terrific track record in the box office compared to all his peers, Vijay is subjected to needless, unfair and unruly criticism by a dedicated minority especially in the social networking space where calling yourself a fan of a good looking actor is seen as an added incentive to gain attention. Some budding small actors also join the bandwagon to use the good looking hero's name to gain popularity.

But wait!!!

Have the efforts of the dedicated minority and some cheap actors paid dividends? Have they been able to make any impact on Vijay's Box-office prowess?

The answer is a resounding NOOOOOO!!!!! The reason is, no matter what the social network says, Vijay is the most consistent and bankable star in the Tamil Industry for good part of last 15 years. Vijay has the largest fan following of all actors in his generation and truly is the Man of the Masses.

The Illayathalapthy is back with a resounding bang with Thuppakki!!!!

In what can be truly said as a resounding slam 'straight to the face' for all who undermined him, Vijay absolutely thrills in Thuppakki.

The movie is also a comeback of sorts for the director and A.R. Murugadoss has sketched a character that promises to turn both his and Vijay's career around. Thuppakki is all about the life of Major Jagdeesh and his encounter with a dreaded head of the sleeper cells network in Mumbai,Vidyut Jamaal.

Vijay enthralls in all areas of Action,Dialogue Delivery,Comedy and Dance and once again proves that @37 he is the fittest and the most energetic hero around. Vijay take a bow!!!!

The technical aspects of the movie w.r.t. Camera by Santhosh Sivan,Editing by Sreekar Prasad and Music by Harris Jayaraj are all top notch. Special mention should be made regarding the background score by Harris, World Class!!!!!

With Thuppakki's resounding success,Vijay has once again proved that he is second only to Rajnikanth with respect to fan following and market value. Thuppakki will always remain an important feather in Vijay's cap and a movie close to the heart for all this fans.

Surely, this is the first of many to come for the Ilayathalapathy and this movie has done its bit to stop the unfair treatment for Vijay in the social networking space. Vijay fans look a lot confident in facing up against unfair ridicule and criticism.

Ilayathalapathy Vijay is here to stay and rule!

A riveting tale of an Army Captain who takes on the terrorists in his hometown when on a vacation, Thuppakki is sure to kindle the patriot in you.

But for the usual commercial elements like the opening song for the hero and unnecessary romantic sequences, the film is a gripping edge of the seat thriller.

The bane of Indian Cinema's screen play, the songs play spoilsport in this film too. The damage is more pronounced because the songs and the situations in which they appear are a let down. If only the director, AR Murugadoss had the galls to remove the useless romantic scenes and songs, the film would have got the distinction of being the best action film of the past 10-15 years in Tamil Cinema.

Still, the film is a treat to the average film goer in Tamil Nadu. The pre-interval sequence where the 12 hunters become the hunted stand out. Using his own sister as bait for the terror kingpin shows how much dedicated and confident the lead character is. The climax, many have observed, is not as good as the other parts of the film - but for me it was as good as any and Vijay's acting in that scene. Just wow!! This man knows how to act manly alright.

Vijay's best action film till date excepting Gilli and that is because the romance part is a sore thumb for the film.

Among all the 54 movies including Thuppakki, this one stands separate as the best performer. Poove Unakaga, Kadhaluku Mariyadhai, Ghilli were huge turning points in Vijay's career and set new benchmarks. And now Vijay has put himself into more trouble by raising the bar higher in Thuppakki.

For second movie in a row Vijay's name came after the movie name, which in my view is good and the title cards was good, showing different places in Mumbai.

A decent introduction song, Kutti Puli Kootam but the next song, Antartica came rather quickly and chilled me a lot. I never finished listening Alaika Laika song but in my view that was the best choreographed song in the movie. Google Google meets expectation, Vennilave okayyy, poi varava was heart touching.

The movie flows well in first 20 mins with the regular hero heroine introduction comedies. As soon as antartica song is over, movie enters main story and rest is just THE GAME. A game with thrill, ideas, lot of smartness, team work and the Gun.

Interval block amazing, Vijay's Hindi superb, stunning camera-work, enthralling background score, pacy editing, perfect climax with a touching end :)

Kajal satisfies with her role, Vidyut is smart, Jayaram was too good in his comedies and Ilayathalapathy Vijay was just the best in his career, with his attitude driven performance.

Undoubtedly to be the biggest hit in Vijay's Career... Thank you thalaiva :)
