Velayudham

Velayudham is a definitely a good try by Raja. Way Raja has transformed Vijay from a Milk man to a super hero trying to protect people is really done well. Raja could have tried to give a better definition for the Villains.

Vijay's usual formula: "People coming to watch a movie should just enjoy the 2.5 hours without thinking too much. Come.... Watch... Enjoy and Go.... No Brain teasers", worked very well for him.... This movie has also done its part.... Already producer Ravichandran has confirmed movie is a smash hit all over the world.

Vijay's performance was really good in the movie. Vijay continue entertaining the fans like you do always. Waiting to watch your upcoming movies Nanban and one with ARM. Velayudham is a movie worth watching.

Velayudham – 7/10 – Velayudham certainly halts the continuous falling streak of Vijay in recent years and announces a big comeback for the actor. With a premise adapted from a telugu film, 'Azad', Jeyam Raja (who is famous for adapting successful films to Tamil) have once again proved his forte in it with an entertaining fare, Velayudham. Velayudham is not an experimental film with pretentious plot but first of all it also did not promise to offer one. It contains a story which is tested many times but what makes it sparkle, is the way it is being presented. Vijay delivers a well-balanced performance after a long time and walks away with applause in every frame as he enhances them with amazing amount of energy and freshness.

Despite taking a commercial route, Raja did not deviate too much from logic and tries to inject fair amount of intelligence too and of course a thoughtful message at the end. Most importantly unlike previous ventures of Vijay, Valyudham does not over exaggerate too much in the name of glorifying, at any parts. He shows maturity having able to handle a sensitive subject and direct scenes with almost 50 experienced artistes in once scene. No doubt it is a big step for him to step into the leagues of biggies of Koolywood.

Performance wise, all of them do their role well and stands just behind Vijay is Genilia with a matured makeover and in the other end Haniska over emotes at many instances.

Technically the film is quite competent. Priyan's cinematography needs a special mention which enhances the Super Hero theme very well. Vijay Anthony's tune might not be so innovative but satisfies the audiences especially Vijay's fans. Out of all, 'Chillax' stands out the most while 'Mayam Seidayo' is a visual treat.

In Overall, Velayudham is not a landmark film in Kollywood but has all the ingredients to entertain the audience which is what expected from Vijay.

This time Vijay is back with his usual formula.....Did it get succeeded.....Vijay fans can lift their collar and say that this movie is another Gilli for Vijay.......Raja has made the screenplay in such a way that engages u for the whole 3 hrs (total run time of this movie). Vijay's screen presence is electrifying. Both the heroines used properly.Perfect placement of the songs.Santhanam is a scream...Saranya Mohan justifies her role..Ms. Bhaskar , Swaminathan, Suri, black Pandy lives up to their role. Genelia has very powerful role and whereas Hansika scores with her comic timings..chemistry between Hansu an Vijay has come out very well. Another Important part of the movie is its action part.....they were mind blowing...train sequence is the best example.....stunt Silva did a great job...Priyan, really did a very good job wit his camera..which revolves around the characters in 1st half and Perfectly blending with action seqs in the 2nd half. Vijay's performance is superb...he romances very well, does comedy, dances, fights , emotes well(especially in a twist that will happen in 2nd half). hummable songs by Vijay Antony and its wonderful picturisation is big plus for the movie's screenplay.RR is good/OK .climax is perfect and one cannot make a good climax more than this for a commercial mass entertainer.special thanks to Raja . Overall it is an out an out Vijay movie safely handled by Raja ...can be watched with family..trust me..It wont disappoint u...

After huge expectation when the songs have already topped the charts , the wait is finally over for all our fans. Velayudham - The ultimate weapon fired all cylinders and was fully loaded with all the ingredients required for a mass commercial movie and thoroughly satisfied the expectation of every fan who were eagerly waiting for the result. There are many scenes in the movie where your adrenaline rushes, heart pumps and finally you end up with dry throat screaming at your maximum possible decibel level.

Highlights :

Vijay carries the entire movie on his shoulders. He serves as the messiah for poor, general public and his character has been perfectly sketched and he has been fed with a neat and a mass script which demands for his image.

Songs have been perfectly placed and beautifully captured, opening song was a treat to watch, beautiful colors and was a perfect start to a fast paced movie.

All the artists have done justice to their role and i actually lost count on the number of artists who have appeared.

Stunts need to mentioned here, beautifully choreographed by stunt Silva and Arasu, each and every punch was breathtaking.

Director Raja has been underestimated by all of us, he proved all of us wrong and gave a perfect mass commercial movie which can be enjoyed by all sections of people and also keeping the family audience in mind.

The two pretty ladies, in fact three including Saranya Mohan, they have done their part and also gave their best which is required for the script. Hansika with her cute expressions and innocent behavior and with her glamor quotient makes the audience spell bound, Genelia as a press reporter a much serious role and also an important part of the movie has done her role very well.
