Game Over

I had thought this would be decent to watch as there are very small bunch of movies to call them thrillers but it actually crossed my expectations. Its introductory scene was terrific and violent (for some I think) but it has created decent foundation for the rest of the film. Taapsee Pannu as victim of rape has really convincing and as a audience we will really feel sympathy for her. Through her acting she will really win audiences heart and convinces us throughout entire film. Screenplay was excellent and uts the best I had watched in the recent. Throughout the scenes it makes us jump on the seat and gets compelled to the scrren for rest of its to complete.

Amazing movie it was ! Specially the last part was so good. The concept is more awesome. Never seen any movie of this kind movie or any concept. Last scene was really the game between life and death ! Must watch !

If you enjoy "edge of the seat" suspense thrillers, then "Game over" is the perfect movie for you to watch. Everything about the movie is very good,be it the script,acting,editing screenplay,direction, absence of songs,or length. 8/10

Game over opens to handicam mode where we witness a lady being butchered and torched to death by an unknown psychopath. The film then shifts to swapna (Tapsee) who lives alone with her housemaid Kalamma(Vinodini).She keeps glued to her video game all the time and has nyctophobia(fear of darkness). This is the primary setting to the film.Ashwin Saravanan has taken more than enough time to set the tone of the film in the first half but the editing in the second half is somehow able to clear that up. It has been seen in Hollywood several times that famous games are adapted in films ,now for the first time it is being tried in our country.We have been all familiar with Pacman video game which has acted as an important trigger for "Game Over".The film kind of lost believability in the second half which on the other hand is better than the first half (as I have already said).If the film attempts to be known to be a psychological thriller,I am afraid the attempt is half hearted.The film plunges into ridiculous cat and mouse sequences which make the film thrilling to watch but quite absurd to comprehend.The film becomes overly pretentious in some parts which made the film an one time watch.The camerawork for the film works impressively accompanied by the haunting background score.Tapsee Pannu is the only reason for you to watch the film at a stretch.She has been absolutely stunning in her role as a weak and frightened character.The scares,desperations brought by her in her face for the role seems to be authentic and right on spot.Vinodini also shines as her housemaid who has motherly affection towards sapna.The film has an underlying tone involving the violence against women.The film is ambitious but kind of a let down if you wanna have a quality experience.

I'm really glad to see a plethora of Content based films in India Lately. The perception amongst People has drastically changed. The typical, Same old flicks can't hide behind the curtains anymore. The industry is growing up with Interesting Stories as well as talented creative persons! I Hope to see this trend continues in such motion.

Now let's talk about the film itself, alright?

This is yet another different flavor story out of the South Indian industry! The story might not be the best but it worked out pretty well in the most important parts, The Intro and the Climax!

An attention grabbing Cinematography alongside a Suspensful Screenplay worked wonders here.The soundscore too left it's impression. Although the editing department could have been a little sharper. The lack of Character Developments and Loopholes into this plot made all the fuss that I have complaints about. The Inevitable flaws ruined the huge potential the story had. The makers have concentrated too much on Tapsee Pannu's Character that the other intregal parts have been blatantly ignored. The excellence in the Technical department didn't get the final product it genuinely deserved! When the film finishes you get the feel of "Incompleteness".

But I won't be much nitpicking here cause the film itself wasn't that Bad at all! I enjoyed the usual Great performance from Tapsee. She gelled the plot together. Although I must say it really hurts to see such promising premise fails to deliver on all fronts ; especially when it was highly achievable!
