Kaappaan

Sexually explicit double meaning dialogues, sex scenes at club, violence. Should be rated 18+. Average action movie

Honestly disappointed in the film. Weak screenplay as evident by flashing of various scenes without much continuity. The plot was fairly decent , but as i mentioned, let down by weak screenplay. Personally felt like it lacked the magical touch of KV Anand.

The best part of the movie were the actors themselves : Suriya was a delight to watch, Mohan Lal is amazing as well (though restricted by weak plotline) ,Arya and Sayesha did their job well. The BGM was not upto the mark (only one song was very good, and that itself sounded similar to a recently released Spanish song) .

Overall I feel mad that a wonderfully talented actor like Suriya has been restricted by the film standard. 5 stars for Suriya + 1 star for the other actors.

Kaappan is a average attempt by suriya and kv aananth the story plot is new but the screenplay of this film is usual there is so much of lag in the first half and the narration is also very awful but the second half was good and even more faster than 1st half comparing to the previous film ayan made by this combo is very disappointed and the acting of suriya is as usual he done well in this also harrish jayaraj's music is nothing to say poor old music overall it's one time watchable with family not for all

Extremely disappointed, before watching with lot of expectations

When you watch movies because of a director, then you are hoping for a quality experience. Because of their past track record with good story, screenplay, dialogue and direction. KV Anand's past movies have been a mixed bag in terms of quality.

Does the movie have issues with story, character arc, screenplay? Absolutely. Does the movie entertain you at the end of it? Well it depends on your movie taste. Did it entertain me? Absolutely. Will I recommend you watch it? Yes, but only once.

One of the well known movie critic once said "when you review a movie, you review on it's own merits and not according to the standards you as reviewer set or benchmark the movie against the director's past movies or other movies in it's genre"
