Disappointed movie of 2018 over acting poor second half

Yet another typical Vijay movie.

Sarkar is one of the best movies of Vijay and Murugodos team. The role of Vijay is very stylish, but we can find a lot of old styles he had shown in old movies throughout the movie, even though the dialogue- "I am waiting". The film is unique because of the music of A.R Rehman. He did his part very well. Especially in the BGM and the title song. Apart from the music, the criticism against the current democratic system is also an appreciative effort from the movie makers. Action scenes are good, and they do not make any more. Still, I have a question why Keerthi Suresh is there. There is no romance in the movie. The second half is filled with some lengthy dialogues and Vijay again proved that he can handle the dialogues perfectly. On the whole, the entire film is totally entertaining.

Great Message. Execution could have been better.

Sarkar - A decently made political drama/thriller film. Thalapathy Vijay proves to be the savior once again with his class. Kudos to the director for taking up such a sensitive topic as story and also to Vijay for enacting this drama. Full marks for that. I'm giving it a 10 for just that.

Negatives - Logic might be found missing in some of the scenes. I found one fight sequence unnecessary and an other fight sequence could have been shortened. Varalakshmi Sarathkumar's character had a great villain potential, but screen time was really less and the character went under utilised. Keerthi Suresh and Yogi Babu didn't have much role to play. The first song felt unnecessary.

Overall a decent one time watch.

An Usual Political Film..

Vijay Acting is perfect but other characters lacks it. The role of Heroine Keerthy Suresh is of no use and the BGM and few songs were not effective. But the Screenplay and story Plot were impressive. Dialogs were excellent which indicates the current scenario of that state. Finally, the Movie is a 1 time watchable.

Worst Murugadoss movie

Murugadoss standards have clearly lowered,the movie has nothing new to offer that same old messiah of the poor who defeats the corrupt and rich and the screenplay is bad and the action is terrible,it is just the same old fashioned story served on a different plate

Trivia
The protests by the AIADMK party members and supporters worsened to the point where police officers visited director A.R. Murugadoss' house when he wasn't there. After that incident, the director went to the High Court to get an anticipatory bail. Eventually, on the third day after the movie's release, the studio agreed to cut the controversial scenes and mute the name Komalavalli.
