Captain

Maybe the concept and storytelling is on par, but the acting and *CGI* combined render the movie an absolute garbage! Don't waste your time, dear reader.

When you opt to make sci-fi movie like this, the GCI segment shall get the highest priority, and everything else comes second. We don't actually expect top-notch logic or drama of in such movies!

Unfortunately, the CGI of this movie looks cartoonist at best and poor of uncannily horrible proportions. It is an absolute waste of money and opportunity.

If you cannot finance it properly, don't make it - don't waste our valuable time and don't make a mockery of sci-fi movies!

We watched the film with the hope of being amazed but the visual effects, script, and acting, sadly, worked against the film

DELICIOUS

-Big up to the casting director for selecting the right faces for the right roles; we loved Vetri's team, their looks complemented each other. And the General (Adithya Menon) was tall, dark, and robust 😍

-The story was intriguingly told through the 4 stages of battle: Identify the enemy, fight the enemy, find out the enemy's weakness, and deceive the enemy. As these stages were constantly reiterated, they became good reference points to understand where the movie was headed

-Aishwarya Lekshmi, as always, was graceful. Though making a brief appearance, she left an unforgettable mark with the gentle touch she added

-So, minotaurs, in Greek mythology, represented the primal fear of the unknown in the mind of humans, and what Captain did so well was using minotaurs to point Vetri and his team to the greater enemy they were unaware of

BLAND

-The visual effects were the major downfall. The minotaurs, gunshot wounds, and other CGI elements appeared very fake to the extent that it was disengaging. Images looked grainy and lighting wasn't properly controlled in some scenes

-There was way too much music than necessary :(

-The cast couldn't accurately portray their emotions, e.g. When Vetri and his team were struck by the minotaurs, they immediately recovered from pain within a few minutes

-The screenplay lacked a lot of logic like how did Vetri quickly believed in the existence of minotaurs? If gunshots couldn't hurt minotaurs, why still use guns?

-Overall, Captain didn't invite us; we just watched without being transported into the story.

It's a daring attempt from director to show our audience something new, atleast we should appreciate his efforts,he has been experimenting with his films,all his past works are like this, zombie movie called miruthan,space movie called tik tik tik, and a movie with talking teddy bear, i really enjoy his works,kudos to Arya for trying something new every time,it's an Indian version of predator but this story has emotional side as well,it's predictable at some parts but it's not that worst as so called critics mentioned, if we don't encourage this kind of films there won't be anything new for us to watch in future, keeping everyone's opinion aside i recommend everyone to watch this atleast once in order to encourage the efforts made by the team.

*** Captain Movie Review****

Directed by Shakti Soundar Rajan...

Starring Aryan, Simran , Kavita Shetty in lead role....

Verdict of the Movie : Above Average... 2.5 / 5

Plot of The Movie:

A group of soldiers goes to a uncivilized place named Sector 42 , somewhere located in the north east border as per the instruction of the government to inspect & certify the place as a civilized place.

But the reality is different. There they come across a group of beasts / predators against whom they need to fight and accomplish the mission...

Positive Factors of the Movie:

1) Its not a hero centric movie... Every character had its relevance and they performed well too.

2) Avoidance of hero - heroine conventional love sequences

3) A different approach from Shakti Soundar Rajan is being adopted...At one end where such kind of science fiction , predator movies were seen a lot in Hollywood, an experimental approach in Kollywood should be applauded...

4) Some thrilling moments...

Negative Factors of the Movie

1) Was there a heroine required?? As although they avoided the conventional rom com situation still it would have been better without a heroine...

2) VFX was average...It was not convinceable

3) Although here the villian is a fiction, still it didn't gave the goosebumps as it was being portrayed...
