Vishal $ s.j Suryah are in dual role along side Ritu Varma Sunil abhinaya selvaraghavan. It might be an average movie, but not the worst either. I do appreciate that they tried something new well IIt might be an average movie, but not the worst either. I do appreciate that they tried something new well I suppose suppose it to be a dumb movie where the plot does not have real much sense I hoped that it is because it's not like this movie is without stock. SG Suryah whose comedic timing and Manna is almost perfect to the concept as such whose screen presents almost It's underwhelming screenplay.

Watched this on day 1 release. Everyone who watched before me said this is a blockbuster. I went in with high hopes. Literally couldn't sit through the film. Except for SJ Surya and few good comedy, what does this film offer?

Vishal is poorly cast, he is no match to SJ surya. The story itself is very boring and said in an uninteresting way. The films songs and bgm are even bad. Very loud and jarring. The old songs used in the film are good.

And what's with the self references, like SJ surya mentions Vaali and Vishal with Anaconda. It's really irritating after some point. Poorly written screenplay that follows 0 logic. Even the timetravel concept is not properly shown.

I did not expect it to enjoy it as much as I did. Infact as a family we watched it in a single OTT sitting on Prime, so there was something going for the movie! It was over the top but that is expected for a time travel movie. Also loved it that we could not figure out what was going on in the initial half.

SJ Suryah really plays quirky characters so effortlessly. I did not like some of the lewd dialogues, could so easily have been avoided. And it could have been edited to be shorter by ten minutes at the very minimum.

Enjoyed the final avatar of Vishaal. As a son, something was off with the makeup. And glad that the ending was the way it was!

One of the best comedies I've seen in recent times. I was laughing throughout the movie. Using science fiction elements they've turned a usual Tamil gangster story into a spoof of all the familiar tropes without losing the cool action that comes with it. There are definitely plot holes and logic issues with the time-traveling phone but the movie doesn't give you much time to think about it because it just wants to be an out-and-out entertainer more than anything.

SJ Surya is the MVP here. Even though Vishal also did pretty great with his dual roles, SJ Surya's double role as father and son carried the movie. Anyone else would have ruined the whole movie. He deserves all the praise for making all the craziness of the movie work.

What an epic absurdity, it was completely bonkers that I loved so many things about this film. I didn't expect it to be this good, it was fun seeing both SJ Surya and Vishal breaking the law of physics and I hoped it didn't end.

With movies catering to a thirsty young crowd director Adhik Ravichandran has raised eyebrows with an average filmography in recent years. But I bet you this film will leave many gob smacked like how such a filmmaker with a track record of mediocre films can pull off something so damn quirky, absurd that I left the theater smiling.

As with most time travel movies, this treads along the familiar pattern of the characters going back and forth to prevent an incident with unexpected consequences. The film packs so much in the runtime as the leads switch places, and professions with a pile of trouble they keep getting into, trying to change their destiny. Between all the chaos we get some cool Ajith Kumar references and a tribute to Silk Smitha that makes it somewhat one of the wacky but funny sequences in the film.

Coming to the performances, the main quartet, and I mean both Vishal and SJ Suryah gets 2 different roles to play which is very entertaining. They give it all for the role of the mechanic and the gangster playing the role with so many popcorn reel-worthy moments. One of my favorite sequences is the phone conversations in the 2nd half when the mechanic son SJ Surya assigns a task to the Father and keeps pestering him with non-cerebral entertainment. Please do check out my review for Thupparivaalan and you may notice that I had no hopes for Vishal and this is best, he had so much fun donning the Father and the Son role. The Climax anaconda sequence was madness, it is accentuated by over-the-top score by GV Prakash.

Finally, I want to say this is a really ambitious, complicated, and brave attempt by the team to provide good cinematic popcorn entertainment is highly recommended.
