Je compte jusqu'à 10

If you ask me, I should have probably walked in just in time for the second half of the movie. Of course, I wouldn't have understood all that much, but anyway.

I will be dividing this review into two parts everywhere. The first half and the second half!

1. Direction - First half - It was crude, slapstick and down right boring. Right from the beginning fast and furious like sequence all the way to the intermission, it was a drag. Samantha down right got on my nerves. So much so, I wished to god I could slap her right across the screen. Second half - The direction was pretty much the same. Bad sequences and badly down fights. Of course, one thing that always amazes me is how Indian cinema forgets blood. A guy will be hit right across his face with a sharp object and when he falls to the floor, there will be no blood around him!

2. Writing - First half - Puts you to sleep! Second half - Perks up a bit. The story finally stars unraveling. And the plot starts making sense.

3. Acting - Vikram - Wasn't exceptional. Was just like any other tamil actor. Trying to act cool and macho with his lame jokes. Trying to take on way more bad guys than he can deal with etc etc.

Samantha - This girl blew me away. She is the sole reason I enjoyed the second half of the movie and the sole reason I am rating it a thumping 8. Her acting as the usual dumb damsel in distress wasn't exceptional. But in the second half when she rose as the warrior princess of the clan, my god, I was really impressed. She did herself and the tamil cinema proud. I hope she gets to act in more domineering roles like that rather than the usual mousy ones women are always subject to.

4. CGI - Forget it. It was so boring, it was like a bad video game.

5. Sound - Irrespective of what the public says, I quite liked the sound track and the song sequences.

Bottomline - If you are a guy looking for "hot masala" this movie is not for you. If you are a woman who believe in women empowerment, go for the second half.

10 Endrathukulla movie is a bad movie. Me and my friends watched the movie First day.There is no story, bad CGI etc. Screenplay was very poor.Vikram style and acting is good, while Samantha acting is very boring. Good fighting Sequences on the movie and climax scenes not well as much.

Songs are very boring there is no good interesting song on the movie Except one slow song.Cameo appearance of Charmi kaur was good and hot. The major negatives of the film are unwanted scenes in the first and second half and unexciting screenplay. The film lost its track start to end. The director failed to bring the audience's attention to the film.

All in all the movie is dumb and utter waste for money and time.

Went to the movie with a great expectations, because of "Goli soda" director and vikram combo, but this is what happened.. The movie started with the big bang hero intro...which you can find in almost all Tamil movies and the songs are not that great and fight scenes are clumsy and the CG work done in the movie is not up-to the mark, The directed tried it to be a road movies, but fails to achieve that genre rather this is a plain masala movie. The villains in the movie are artificial. The +vs nd -vs of 10 Endrathukulla (2015) is +ve Vikram,samantha, Plot Twist, cinematography, -ves Clumsy Fights, Overrated Villains, Songs, CG ,screenplay .

Bottom line: After "I" expectation for Vikram movie is high, this movie didn't satisfy his fans - "a one time watch"

I watched hindi dubbed version of this movie "Dus ka Dum". I was annoyed hearing Nepal called as part of North India. I would like to suggest the makers of this movie to atleast acknowledge all that those scenes were from Nepal and not from North India.

Celebrated Cinematographer Vijay Milton who set forth his directorial brilliance with 2014 release Goli Soda has tried his luck with a totally different genre this time,an action thriller that's stuffed with logic-less entertainment right from the word go,on the lines of films from the west like the 'Transporter' series.

A partial success considering the motive and genre of the movie,this Vikram starrer is a passable movie overall that suffers largely due to a loose screenplay and a disappointing first hour that fails to impress with some rather boring sequences,tacky VFX and lazy direction combined.

It felt as if the movie was going nowhere until the onset of the second half which filled the much needed air into the pointless screenplay with the much needed twists and developments that helped the movie land safely towards the climax that was well presented by the director.

Its said 'all that starts well ends well',but ironically in the case of 10 Endrathukulla its diametrically the opposite as the absence of a convincing narration particularly in the first hour is made up by a well-narrated latter half that manges to engage the audience till the climax is reached.

Supreme Sundar's action sequences were impressive and well-choreographed,the same being the case with the car chase sequences choreographed by LeeWhittaker.Stunts that defies logic was fine,but the need for going over the top with such sequences spread throughout the film is questionable and felt as if pushing the limits desperately.The item song featuring Charmee was a total let back and unintentionally funny.

The chemistry between the lead pair Vikram and Samantha was impressive and both the actors put their best as far as the acting side is concerned.Vikram looked stylish like never before and managed to perform the action sequences brilliantly.Pasupathy was another pick from the cast and gave a neat performance.Abhimanyu Sing was totally wasted.Rahul Dev repeated his usual villain kind of role.

Anoop Seelin's background score was energetic and added life to the action sequences.Music by D.Imman was okayish with the songs 'Vroom Vroom' and 'Aanalum Indha Mayakkam' being my personal favorites and presented really well by Milton.The item song could have been easily avoided.

Cuts by notable editor Sreekar Prasad were okayish where as the cinematography by Milton's long time assistant Bhaskaran K.M was good.

Overall,10 Endrathukulla is a passable action thriller that could have been presented better.

Verdict::A mixed bag as far as the overall experience is concerned,Vijay Milton's attempt on recreating an Indian version of Transporter is a watchable entertainer that's saved big time by good performances from the lead pair and an engaging latter half filled with interesting twists and turns.Watch it if you like no-brain entertainers!
