Mark Antony

One of the best comedies I've seen in recent times. I was laughing throughout the movie. Using science fiction elements they've turned a usual Tamil gangster story into a spoof of all the familiar tropes without losing the cool action that comes with it. There are definitely plot holes and logic issues with the time-traveling phone but the movie doesn't give you much time to think about it because it just wants to be an out-and-out entertainer more than anything.

SJ Surya is the MVP here. Even though Vishal also did pretty great with his dual roles, SJ Surya's double role as father and son carried the movie. Anyone else would have ruined the whole movie. He deserves all the praise for making all the craziness of the movie work.

Well, this movie is totally for entertainment purposes. We may be fans of Christopher Nolan, but once in a while we need an illogical movie with pure magic to entertain us. I loved the second part of the play, especially S. J. Surya's performance. Vishal score in the climax. I had a good laugh after a long time. Every scene was crisp and entertaining. The music is good, and the action sequences were enjoyable. Overall, this is a fun movie to watch with your gang. I hope the director continues on this path, where he can score very well. Leave your logical brain before entering the theater. Won't regret........

Vishal very dull acting after his entry was a letdown and thought the movie is gonna be so bad but SJ Suryah performance peaked at pre-interval to 2nd half pre climax, just wow. People do say overreacting but that's his talent and it was good. Those 7 marks are for SJ Suryah comedy and acting and Vishal acting in climax. Adik. Ajith references were unwanted from Adik Ravichandaran. His other movies are not good as this. Songs were not good but retro remix from GVP worked out. Comeback for Vishal and the director. The story was very similiar as INN but the concept of Time Travel was different. We need more unique scripts like this! 2nd half screenplay >> 1st half screenplay.

Watched this on day 1 release. Everyone who watched before me said this is a blockbuster. I went in with high hopes. Literally couldn't sit through the film. Except for SJ Surya and few good comedy, what does this film offer?

Vishal is poorly cast, he is no match to SJ surya. The story itself is very boring and said in an uninteresting way. The films songs and bgm are even bad. Very loud and jarring. The old songs used in the film are good.

And what's with the self references, like SJ surya mentions Vaali and Vishal with Anaconda. It's really irritating after some point. Poorly written screenplay that follows 0 logic. Even the timetravel concept is not properly shown.

What an epic absurdity, it was completely bonkers that I loved so many things about this film. I didn't expect it to be this good, it was fun seeing both SJ Surya and Vishal breaking the law of physics and I hoped it didn't end.

With movies catering to a thirsty young crowd director Adhik Ravichandran has raised eyebrows with an average filmography in recent years. But I bet you this film will leave many gob smacked like how such a filmmaker with a track record of mediocre films can pull off something so damn quirky, absurd that I left the theater smiling.

As with most time travel movies, this treads along the familiar pattern of the characters going back and forth to prevent an incident with unexpected consequences. The film packs so much in the runtime as the leads switch places, and professions with a pile of trouble they keep getting into, trying to change their destiny. Between all the chaos we get some cool Ajith Kumar references and a tribute to Silk Smitha that makes it somewhat one of the wacky but funny sequences in the film.

Coming to the performances, the main quartet, and I mean both Vishal and SJ Suryah gets 2 different roles to play which is very entertaining. They give it all for the role of the mechanic and the gangster playing the role with so many popcorn reel-worthy moments. One of my favorite sequences is the phone conversations in the 2nd half when the mechanic son SJ Surya assigns a task to the Father and keeps pestering him with non-cerebral entertainment. Please do check out my review for Thupparivaalan and you may notice that I had no hopes for Vishal and this is best, he had so much fun donning the Father and the Son role. The Climax anaconda sequence was madness, it is accentuated by over-the-top score by GV Prakash.

Finally, I want to say this is a really ambitious, complicated, and brave attempt by the team to provide good cinematic popcorn entertainment is highly recommended.
