Ace

Ace is a movie that blends comedy, romance, thrills, and brainy twists into a single package. The first half starts with light humor. Vijay Sethupathi plays 'Bolt Kannan' who is an underdog with charm - a man who arrives in Malaysia with nothing but ends up entangled in a poker game gone wrong. His chemistry with Rukmini Vasanth is light and felt natural as the director takes his time to show the transition from friendship to love, which some people may find slow. The transition from fun to tension is smooth, and the pre-interval scene adds a satisfying adrenaline rush.

The second half is where the film truly shines. Rather than relying solely on brawn or over-the-top action, Ace leans into deception and strategy - making it feel less like a violent gangster flick and more like a mind game. The film relies heavily on Yogi Babu's comedy in both the halves, so if that's something you want, Ace definitely delivers!

There's not much music, at least in the second half, but the first half's music scenes - though long were calming to see. Near the pre-climax sequence it seems to drag, but climax is done well. Some of the scenes have lazy writing but on the whole it doesn't disappoint even with it's own lows and highs.

While the plot sticks to some cliché lines, it didn't feel boring. The pacing is good, the twists land well, and the final scene leaves the audience with a grin. Ace might not be something unique, but it delivers exactly what it promises: a stylish, engaging, and satisfying story that's fun to watch and easy to revisit.

Overall: Ace is an example of a fun to watch masala film that relies more on mind games and humor than plain action. Relies heavily on Vijay Sethupati and Yogi Babu's comedy.

Ace is a masterwork of movement, light, and frame. 🎥 The motive close-ups and underwater sequences were stunning. VJS lived the role; his performance felt organic. 🙌 Rukmini was effortlessly refreshing, and Yogi Babu blended humor with emotion in a rare combo. The screenplay moved with great rhythm, and the finale had a clever build-up. Aditya Rao's score was haunting yet subtle. Sound design? Flawless. When every department clicks, this is what we get. Proud to see Tamil cinema evolve like this! 👏Climax shot slow-motion water splash - vera level! Some scenes make me a goosebumps and very unexpected climax must watch movie! Don't miss in theatre.

'Makkal Selvan' Vijaysethupathi 'Ace'd the movie with perfect style & acting. Combo of Vijay Sethupathi and Yogi Babu was very entertaining & hilarious and worked out extremely well.

This movie is full of thrills and mostly filled with fun moments and kept the mood in a light hearted way. Not a strong storyline to corrolate but kept the audience engaging and well connected with the movie. Director Arumuga Kumar has done a neat job in handling the movie in such a good way.

Babloo Prithiveeraj negative shade in acting worked out very well and remainded of similar strong neagtive role in old 'Ajith' movie. Strong villain character Avinash with his look and strong dialogue delivery was very impactful.

Overall a very good movie to watch which keeps us entertaining continuously.

This is the perfect movie for the OTT platform, where you have the control on your hand to forward on the lazy moments.

The story and characters are highly predictable. There are lot of repeated events/scenes which makes the movie looks very long. Still there are some good enjoyable moments make the movie watchable.

VJS and Yogi babu combination is very run of the mill idea. Heroine is fresh face for this movie and worked out well for the character.

Just put your expectation for the utter masala entertainment and you will not be disappointed.

The film went good for the first hour and turned so badly for the next hour and half. The comedy didn't work so well in half of the film. Yogi Babu is not capable of carrying like Santa or soori so directors shouldn't leave it simply to Yogi Babu to save the film. Vijay Sethupathi was okayish. Rukmini Vasanth was amazing like always. Her acting was phenomenal. Divya pillai was great too. The score and bgms were too loud which felt absurd. The villains looked like fools. There was a poker set piece in the film which was so intense and interesting. But all of the set up went to ruins. Many layers were added inside the screenplay which felt very underwhelming. The heist scene was so badly written. The action sequences were average.

On the whole, this is a below average film. You will get entertained for half of the film then and there but the other half will bore you.
