Avis à la une
The off-the-chart expectations stirred by the release of projects of two mega stars lured me in for the first day premiere of "Jilla". Despite encircled by a surreal crowd that screamed "Vijay" at the top of their lungs, I managed to find a tunnel vision with a neutral point of view and am penning this review in the same perspective.
Jilla is the story of the Godson of a Don, who turns into a police officer to aid his godfather, who then does a 180 degree shift opposing him and offers an ultimatum: Change or I will Change you.
The typical essence of a Masala entertainer is sprinkled in vast proportions and hence finds an appeal among the fans. Neutral viewer, like me, will find it hard to sit through several scenes which were deliberately inserted to find whistles rather than aiding the pace of the screenplay.
Over 60 years of combined experience between "Mohanlal" and "Vijay" overshadows almost everyone else on screen. Kajal is just a 3 song dancer with 3 extra scenes none of which feeds her acting appetite. Suri, with his double-meaninged wit, has tried a few gags which in most cases deserve sympathy rather than laughter.
As usual, stunts and songs play spoilsport, since they are logic-less and speed breakers respectively. Suri himself quotes, "Why, unnecessarily, did you stretch a one liner into a song?"
Despite these flaws, the audience will find the movie appealing only because they are able to see the entertainment behind all the aforementioned veils. To give a clear comparison this flick is somewhere between "Thalaiva" and "Thuppaki". Unlike Thalaiva, this is original but unlike Thuppaki this isn't universal.
A little more editing could have sharpened the movie.
An average attempt (5/10).

well lets say, this is another typical vijay movie. its got a similar storyline like his previous movies, save his father, help the poor. its all the same but the movie actually doesn't get you bored at any part, it actually moves you along, there are no stand out scenes in the movie, the movie does a decent job of telling what it wants us to know.
the acting is amazing, vijay brings his likability to screen and mohanlal brings his best out to screen, this time around there is a lot of emotional moments and vijay and mohanlal nail the emotional scenes. the action scenes are exactly what you can expect from a vijay movie, the comedy also is pretty good, though they have double meaning, kajal looks adorable and there is no much importance for her role, she is just there for the sake of having an actress in the movie,something lack in the film but it never pulls you off the experience,this is the movie you can watch once, don't get your expectations high, just sit and get a popcorn

It's Pongal season, and time for some new movies. Having never missed any of Vijay's films from the outset, I made my way to a premiere show of 'Jilla' here in SL.
A typical mass masala type movie once again. Nothing new to Vijay definitely. The first half is full of comedy, and with Vijay as the lead actor, we definitely know that it's a treat to watch his comedy acts. That's definitely a plus to the movie. Towards the middle, some really emotional scenes, that definitely tends to move the crowd to silence in the theater. And an action packed, all star ending to seal the movie.
Upside? Good comedy by Vijay himself, no doubt. Some good father-son and family scenes. And good BG music too. The songs are sure a hit. Action packed, with a few twists here and there. And since it's Vijay and Mohanlal we are talking about, the acting is definitely too good and very enjoyable.
Downside? Soori hasn't been used enough for comedy. In Velayudham it was a better performance. And the heroine, Kajal's character too has been rushed. As the main female lead, I guess she deserved some more juice in the plot. And the length of the movie. That's the biggest fail. It goes on for more than 3 hours. I feel they could have cut down a bit on the unnecessary parts.
So what's the verdict? 7 is my rating. Not as superb as Thuppaki was. But it's above Thalaiva for sure. A sure Pongal treat for the die hard Vijay fans. And a decent watch to the other neutrals, to enjoy with the family as well.

Its one of those Commercial rockets. Works primarily B-COS although its got stars, its got a engrossing story that keeps claiming attention. Something or other happens in Jilla ! either somebody is comical or somebody is fighting a war or somebody is asking justice. Its this "story-laden" aspect that works big-time for this movie. on the flip side, there was probably too much story. every scene had detailing which worked largely positively and at times, over-whelmed the frame. But try telling that to vijay die-hard fans ! Direction was smooth. Not over- doing anything and good tempo maintained throughout. I wonder why there were complaints on the pacing. i look forward to good story-telling and pacing is never a deterrent in an action masala. overall, Jolly enjoyable film

Full time-pass Thamizh film starring Vijay, Mohanlal, Kajal,Sampath, "parotta" Suri, Thambi Ramaiah, Mahath, Poornima Bhagyaraj. A multi-starrer of all sorts, the film boasts of a huge budget, colorful extravaganza and maximum entertainment. Vijay is the darling of the masses and Jilla went onto become one of the biggest films with record- breaking opening collections, upon release. The film recently celebrated its 50th day amidst much pomp and fanfare.
Story-wise, it's a typical father-son equation going all wrong and the film deals with emotional conflict, proving to be an effective family entertainer. Direction is by RT.Neason and credit goes to him for handling two super-stars in an extremely effective and casual way, right in his second film. Cinematography is by Ganesh Rajavelu and Imman, who is the current king of melody, has composed five foot-tapping songs. Overall, an effective entertainer

Le saviez-vous
- AnecdotesReleased during Pongal festival of 2014 along with Veeram.
- Versions alternativesThe UK release was cut, the distributor was advised that the film was likely to receive a 15 classification but that their preferred 12A classification could be obtained by making a number of cuts to reduce the bloody violence. When the finished version of the film was submitted for formal classification, edits had been made to reduce sequences of bloody violence, including blood sprays from both bullet impacts and machete blows. The formal submission was consequently classified 12A.
