"Oru Nalla Adipadam", so first of all this is not a comparison but just take this as a way to understand how the film is, so to compare it with a recent action film which is Thallumala, this one is different as this has a motive or an apparent reason for a fight to happen. The revenge story we all want to see, RDX can be said likewise. There are about 5+ fight scenes in the movie, But the Carnival, Boat, and Climax fight scenes stood out for me the most. There is an awesome playground fight scene, but the bgm or rap song they did was not good with the action scenes. We can see vintage Babu Antony and the BGM was good too.

Pepe, Neeraj, & Shane did their roles very well, and each of them had their own way of fighting, which was interesting. Because from the usual lead actors fighting stereotypes here, the bad guys are beaten up efficiently and we would also feel or understand that the scenes are done very well or their fighting is as it is done by a professional. And to my surprise I watched the whole movie sitting next to Neeraj and Pepe unknowingly and that too made the movie more memorable to me. How often do we get a chance to sit next to the person and cheer for them while they are on screen, when the movie ended I was clearly surprised to know I was watching the whole movie sitting next to them.

Altogether this is a must theater watch adipadam with lots of good fights and a clear reason behind all the fights.

A decent one, unlike the negative reviews. I went to watch the movie with zero expectations because of the negative reviews. The movie was okay for me but not up to the hype of the movie. The main highlight of the movie is the background music, which tries to elevate the scenes to the maximum but still lacks something. Dq did good and tried to do the best he could as the king of Kotha. The color grading and some of the shots in the movie were great. The intro scene of Dq had suspense and was worth the wait.

But the interval scene or why he leaves Kotha was not convincing enough for me as it lacks a proper strong reason or the reason shown was not done well enough to make us believe that he should leave Kotha. The second intro and all that followed afterward were okay. The film had every element for a mass masala movie, a love track, some comedy, mass scenes everything, but in the almost 3-hour run time of the movie, most is basically a slow story unfolding. Some of the dialogue was clearly heavy, and some were cringe worthy. Altogether this is a one time watchable movie with inspiration from other such mass movies and a heavy John Wick inspiration in the action scene department and one might like it or not according to their preferences.

One of the most memorable theater experiences in recent times. I have no noise after all the loud cheering throughout the movie. Getting so much joy from a Thalaivar movie after Petta. Nelson did a big comeback after all the criticism he got. This is a pure fan treat, and ani bgm lit up the show. From the first moment itself the bgm kicks off and it elevates the scenes even more to a point where it is completely a masterclass. Full on thalaivar show, with lalettan and shivaanna. This is a must theater watch film with an audience that will cheer for every moment, not an audience that sits like a stone throughout the movie.

The story is the same old template and is predictable but the making and how things are handled make this difference, i was expecting somewhat of a good theater experience but this is next level. Laleattan was just pakka mass, within the 4 or 5 minutes he had the screen, both shivanna and lalettan had a slowmo mass scene which alone is enough for a second watch. Thalaivar just sitting is enough, the way Nelson hyped up his past just gives a feeling something is about to happen every then and now. The dark humor worked out pretty well this time as it was not overdone, just the right amount was there. There is a surprise look of thalaivar in between which was unexpected and many call backs and dialogues were there which were a reference to his old movies, altogether this is a must watch film in theater with a packed audience that enjoys the stuff shown and will cheer for every moment.
