I am very happy to watch time loop in tamil... Excellent screenplay and very fast and thriller movie... Simbu and sj sury acted soo well... I am very happy to watch time loop in tamil... Excellent screenplay and very fast and thriller movie... Simbu and sj surya acted soo well...

I went into this movie with 0 expectations, and it was SO MUCH better than I thought it would be.

People have tried different things in Kollywood in past with little success, while this different attempt deserves credit, if the movie is bad, it's just bad. But Tamil audience gets up in arms about the bad reviews and says "You'd watch the exact same concept in a Hollywood movie, but you trash it in Kollywood? You're anti-national!" LMAOwut?

THIS is how those movies should have panned out. Glad that the general Tamil audience has something to compare the deservedly trash movies to. Shoutout to Venkat Prabhu for trying something different and actually pulling it off really well.

I can't believe I'm saying this but Simbu, SJ Surya did a great job, however, the writing and editing steal the show. This bold script could have ended up being trash, but faaar from it. You, of course, have to suspend some disbelief (which you need to do for Hollywood movies as well) and this movie will keep you engaged, from start to finish. No mirch masala, no drama. No duets and unnecessary songs and dances; overall a no-nonsense movie, the likes of which you've not watched in Tamil cinema for a while.

Watch this in the theaters to really be immersed, especially for Yuvan Shankar Raja's music.

A Time Loop concept which has used perfectly by Venkat Prabhu. STR shining in this movie. SJ Suriya's comic sense and villainism was really enjoyed by audience. A perfect entertainer for sure. This is an actual DIWALI🔥🔥🔥🔥

Maanaadu, One of the best Indian film in recent years. I am sure that this movie will be remaked in Hindi. Such a great movie. S. J. Suriya acting is really excellent.

I want the film to collect more than 100 crores. Every one watch the film in theatre.

Maanaadu is a feast of sound, vision, even taste. It is noteworthy that Venkat Prabhu tells a complex sci-fi story, but it is completely plausible with a good first half of being confronted with a film whose plot one can predict after a while, only to be confronted a little later with twists and turns that were simply KICKASS. You could say that halfway through as it makes you anticipate for an interval bang and the film does a U-turn which pays off.

Venkat Prabhu shows the power dynamics and how corrupt people incite violence in the name of religion and the depths of the human mind where terrifying creatures can hide. But what makes the film so interesting: The irony with which he proceeded here with his writing for SJ Suryah (Dhanuskodi) whose over the top antics is fun to watch supported by Simbu's (Abdul Khaaliq) excellent performance and it is commendable to see him experiment shedding his mass hero image. The conflict fits in harmoniously and with disastrous consequences in the event and challenging their own fate. They both hold the plot together and it is the beginning and the end and it repeats (maybe Part 2).

The editing deserves a special mention here, so expect a break neck pace and whiplash sequences which keeps the 2nd half in a tense zone, it is supported with terrific soundtrack by Yuvan Shankar Raja (whoever saw the film will understand that).

Conclusion: It has a unique vision, and VP stages scenes in an interesting way to express the tug-of-war and i'm sure it will cater to all types of audiences. So happy that Silambarasan aka Simbu is back with a banger of a movie and I hope he treads along the same path to balance commercial cinema with artistic approach and not taking the audience for granted especially his loyal diehard fans. Finally, this film contains all the things that an audience would expect to make it a pure entertaining and HOOT worthy watch.
