Bigil

Bigil

Vijay shines as Rayappan and Michael. There is no flaw in his acting. Nayanthara's Angel Character was a burden to the film. It slowed down the first half. Vivek could have been used for more scenes.

Instead of Angel and the love scenes, Bigil's love towards football or Rayappan's love towards Bigil could have been showed more.

First half - 2/5 (2 only for Rayappan) Second half - 5/5 Total - 7/10

"Sarkar" from Vijay made the expectations high. But this film will not bore you but neither impress you. The Football scenes has less gameplay reality more cinematic shots. The real lover of the game will feel annoyed. This 3 hours film is old revenge story with a cover of Football.

To begin with I'm not Ajith fan. So, this review is not biased. The first half is completely mindless comedies including nayanthara's love parts. Second half, the background story of the girls are awesome and good. In particular, the acid victim part was really touching. The way how the girl forgives the perpetrator. Other than that, all the scenes are copied from 1000 other movies in Tamil cinema and also from other languages. Obviously, this is Atlee movie, you can't expect a fresh script. Like all his previous movies, this is also a complete copy. It's high time he should change this or else he will end up just like Perarasu (Director of Thirupachi/ Sivagasi).

First watch: Watching it FDFS and the first hour of the movie got so boring that I concentrated only on eating the snacks, especially the romance part was an utter waste, then after Rayappan's entry, Vijay's performance made us not to even blink our eye, it was an awesome performance. There were about tens of messages unrelated to the content as it was a sports-based movie and the gameplay was very much poor that it looked nearly like a video game and not like a stadium match. The introduction was fantastic, Vijay's performance was top-notch but overall on a macroscopic level, it was not a satisfying movie.

Second watch: As I knew that the romance portions were not worth watching, I simply ignored it and only by this time, I did realize that only until Rayappan's entry the movie was bad and after that it went really well and the fact that I didn't get bored during the 2nd watch itself is a good one for any movie.

First half with mass scenes & Rayappan character. Second half highly emotional which connect all the ladies and their dreams.. Worth to watch
