Featured reviews
I am writing this review on seeing the movie and also as a vijay fan. This is vijay 60th movie which expects more from him . Did the expectation fulfilled. Vijay himself sets a boundary line for himself as action comedy message now a days . But in this movie it is overloaded. The story line is Weak and the story telling is also weak . Vijay give a chance to bharathan for second time but it is disappointment only . In the later movies he fights for farmers and now he has fight for students and studies . In this movie many things were told about he is doing dual role and he is a college student but both of them is not true . In fact heroine is studying in college and he takes the problem of her and fights for the villain . Director has only focused on vijay role and other character were not established . Most of the scenes were only in set that is also not good . Music director has bigger role to play but only one song and theme music is OK and also he totally lose his scope in bgm . Editing work is not so special . The only good thing in the movie is fight sequences . Stunt director has worked very hard and it is really good . Director's dialogues are not so good . Last but not least if this movie has directed with different director or bharathan should had concentrated more it would have been a decent movie . Vijay has tried to do different in puli movie but the execution is poor in this movie the story is simple and the execution is also simple . I hope he will do good script with proper execution
This movie was made for the fans. The teaser and trailer made that clear. So for the people complaining I ask what did you expect? This is a masala movie.The hero will kick ass and win the girl's heart in the end and along the way will fight,dance,sing,say one liners and even try his hand at comedy. For the information of those high IQ critics who are rubbishing this movie, there is a market out there for movies like this. There are still people living in towns and villages who want just to be entertained and do not want to see their own realistic lives shown to them.You might have noticed vijay's movies don't normally get a clean release, his enemies out number his friends and inspite of this and movies like sura he still is one of if not the star that comes to your mind when it comes to kollywood commercial cinema. Bairava needs a lot of editing. If they had done that properly I think it would have been as entertaining as some of his recent hits.
This movie is about a kind bank officer who gets in the way of a corrupted and ruthless businessman to bring out his immoral activities and during the process helps out a collage girl.
It's the same plot all over again the usual story for example there is a hero there is villain the hero wins at the end in the process he meets a girl the heroine and falls in love with her. The only thing I liked about this movie was the BGM and the action scenes. Vijay has to change his usual acting to do something different and unique because I bet the audience is bored with this kind of acting as he is being doing this from the movie Pokkiri. Keerthi has to do a lot to improve her acting skills. There were some serious scenes in this movie which can be made into funny GIF as it was all so overly done. Now speaking about the songs some were OK some were really bad especially the first song of this movie which was dragged for no reason none of the songs got pasted into us cause none of them were catchy. The movie itself was dragged in many places because if you fast forward the movie it is actually a one hour and fifty minutes movie but instead it was a two hour and forty minutes movie. The ending of this movie had something to do with the movie shooter and it was predictable.
NO I would not recommend people to watch this movie.
My Rating 5/10

#NO SPOILERS ****** Right from the movie announcement, cast, first look, teaser, trailer and songs the expectation for this flick was moderate, which was obvious and I can that the say the movie exactly matched it, except for the fact that it had a good content and few unexpected mass scenes. Like #Vedalam this movie also had all the qualities that it should have been released around 2005 to 2010 and not in this era. Yes an Agmark mass commercial Masala with good scenes then and there. Yet another One man army movie where Ilaya Thalapathy Vijay carried the whole movie right from the beginning. Movie had a strong plot but a weak execution in the second half. Director Bharathan is very good in paper work as he comes up with good / different stories ( first ATM, now Bairavaa ) and he had penned the dialogues for films like Ghilli and Veeram. When it comes to executing the same on screen, he fails. But there is an improvement compared to ATM ( it has to be, right :P ?). The first 20 or 30 minutes was very dull and kinda boring, even though many claim that the cricket fight was good, I don't feel that way.The actual story started then and it was in a good pace followed by a perfect interval block (Semma Mass!!!!) with Varlam Varlam Va " Bairavaa" BGM!! . Second half continued at a considerable pace by reminding us movies like Sivakasi (film), Veeram etc loses it by the uninspiring cat and mouse game between the hero and villain when nearing towards the Pre climax sequences. Then ends up in a normal climax. The reason for losing the pace was the placement of the scenes in the second half like a good scene followed by a bad scene , then again a good scene followed by a very bad scene. This movie would have been much better if some portions were trimmed. Sathish's one liner comedy helped here and there whereas Thambi Ramaiah was a great Mokkai. Keerthi Suresh as usual didn't have any scope. Another notable negative point is Mr. Santhosh Narayanan for the songs and BGM. 65 to 70% of the movie had "Varlam Varlam Va " Bairavaa" BGM and I doubt whether the remaining part had any RR. Particularly there was fight scene between Vijay and Daniel Balaji with a strong sentimental BGM (WTH ?? ) . This reminds me of the BGM in Kabali fight scene where Thalaivar rescues Radhika Apte in a BGM of absolute silence!! Also the placements of the songs in second half was bad. Papa Song visuals was good with a village temple background and good dance number. To conclude, if you are a neutral and who doesn't have any expectation and doesn't dive deep into anything. This movie would entertain you. For others except the fans, might or might not work out. On a box office point of view , there are certain movies which became hits even earned negative/Mixed reviews at the time of its release with various deciding factors. Examples ( Maan Karate, Maari, Vedalam , Theri etc) the first two due to the Pre release buzz it created and low budgets, the latter ones mainly for the few mass scenes which had been received well mainly in B and C centers even though the content wasn't good enough. So this movie has a very high chance of joining that list! #StrictlyMyview!!!
NO SPOILERS.............. its about a common man who decides to stand with his lover against a big shot for a murder and running a medical college with no basic facilities. no comedy scenes in second half but those in first half were good. plot twists were spotted in very few places but were somewhat good, especially proposal,income tax ride, petrol bunk murder attempt, escape sequence in climax were good. But the rest, hrrrrrrr....! overacted scenes just made it even worse. and vijay kept changing his tone and pitch all over the film that was a bit irritating. continuity between successive scenes are missing. Simply, they wasted a good story! 4/10
