i expected more from this film vikram after a hiatus of almost 2 and a half years has acted in a shoddily directed film
its high on style but low on substance vikrams performance is the only good thing in the film the action scenes are done well but there's no story . it borrows from a lot of films there's a bit of nayakan thalapathy and a bit of a few other films the songs were not called for they don't make the film realistic. it was a very average experience.Songs should be cut out from any film . they are for noly the stereotype Indian audiences
so im going with 5 on 10 for Bheema a big disappointment

Bheema is a very very bad gangster film. Vikram's acting and physique was good but story has nothing new. Script is pathetic. Worst are the villains who are brainless. They come only to get beaten up or killed by vikram. I didn't feel disappointed with the ending as the whole film itself is disappointing. I didn't care that everybody died. How come a talented actor like vikram spent two and a half years for this crap?
There are a few who have rated this movie 1 and 2, but I think they probably meant 9 and 10. It could only be a mistake to rate it lower than 7. Amazing movie, not for the storyline or anything (which is certainly gripping), but for the apt portrayal of Vikram - the protagonist - as the mighty Bheema (Sekar). He is simply superb! I have seen a few good Hollywood action thrillers lately (Departed, Bourne(I,II &III), Shooter, American Gangster, etc) and Bheema (especially Vikarm) stands tall. Watch this movie, closely observe Vikram, and I am sure you would agree with me. For me, this movie is a certain 10/10.
Happy Viewing folks!

The movie was worst. Nothing was good in the movie. The story in the movie was also worst. One of the worst movie of Vikram. The movie was so boring.
Those who live by the sword, die by the sword', goes the caption at the end of 'Bheema'. It is nothing new; for, we have seen both the caption, and the saga of the gangster and his favorite henchman, in innumerable films earlier. It's again a sense of déjà vu for a viewer here. The film does begin promisingly, and manages to keep viewer's attention engaged for the earlier part. However, as the narration proceeds, the scenes turn repetitive, and the script takes a downslide from which it never recovers. Chinna is a thug, whose men are on a killing spree. But who his victims are, and what really is their crime, is a confused scenario. With Chinna's rival being Periyavar (Raghuvaran), a wobbly aging gangster who could barely speak coherently, there is not much of an intimidating opposition for Chinna. It's a further lost cause for Periyavar, with the entry of the gutsy, one-man-army Shekhar into Chinna's fold. Shekhar had admired Chinna's ways and attitude since childhood and had joined his gang. The police enter the picture in order to end the gang war. But with no proper strategy, it's confusion confounded. Some of the fights are well choreographed, while others are those gravity and bullet- defying ones.eaved into this is the love story between Shekar and Shalini (Trisha), and of Chinna's secret love (Lakshmi Gopalasami). It's an ornamental role for Trisha, though there is a futile attempt to thrust her character towards the climax. Songs and dance numbers pop up at inopportune moments causing a lag. . The finale is a weakly etched one, which neither touches a chord, nor evokes any sympathy.
Prakashraj plays Chinna with flair and panache. Thalaivasal Vjay makes his mark as his loyal man. Nevertheless, the saving grace of the film is Vikram. Looking handsome, using his body language to good effect, Vikram plays Shekhar with total involvement and sincerity. The actor is consistently good, even when the script lets him down.
Lingusamy had made well packaged, engrossing, action-packed entertainers like 'Run' and 'Sandakozhi'. 'Bheema' seems to be the weakest of his scripts. It's a film strictly for Vikram's fans.

- TriviaThe film was actually planned as a remake of the 2005 Malayalam film 'Chanthupottu' starring Dileep. But since Vikram's previous film 'Majaa' which was a remake of the film 'Thommanum Makkalum' bombed at the box office, the plan was shelved and a new script was made into a film under the planned title 'Bheema'
