Why are movies like this even made today? Valimai, starring Ajith Kumar is as every bit a cliché as you'd have expected it to be. It wasn't boring, because there was at least something going on on screen, but whatever that was, it certainly didn't add anything meaningful to this bloated genre in this bloated film industry.
The worst offender of this movie is its horrible villain, and his horrible character development. It's the most basic "bad guy who's ripped enough to look like an underwear model" with no depth or dimension whatsoever. And everything tied to his character too, was cringe-worthy. From the whole Satan's Slaves gimmick, to his brain-rotting "edgy" Tumblr incel philosophies and to his motivations of taking whatever he wants that makes him happy. Take some writing classes before you write a screenplay, Jesus Christ.
Overall, it wasn't a horrible movie but it's nowhere near even being average. Sad to see Ajith Kumar loosing his respect as an actor for his gnat IQ movie choices, one movie at a time.

A action packed film, stunts were outstanding. Stunts & action sequence hyped the movie. When it comes to story there's nothing in it. Unengaging screenplay, unnecessary emotional scenes. If felth that Ajith sir was dull in the starting 20mins. Choreography could've been more better, Ajith anna's dance could've been avoided. I really hated the cinematography & lighting in the starting 30mins of this movie. I expected some story in the film.
In whole Pakka Mass packed film.
My rating is 6.7/ 10.

Its not a H Vinoth movie. But complete treat for Thala fans and family audience . Stunts vera level . Many scenes are predictable but still yuvans BGM make them disappear . It's not a worst movie One time watchable mass entertainer . It has the content to get a commercial hit.
Good start for Indian Cinema in 2022 with Valimai being the first Big budget film released in theatres for the year.
The movie is packed with full of high octane stunts and action sequences. H. Vinod the Director has done a great work. Nirav Shaw cinematography and Dhilip stunts stands out. Ajith's acting was utilised properly with his dialogue delivery and emotions were good. Considering his previous flicks this movie offers a lot with Ajith as an actor. Stunts and racing scenes we know what Ajith could do. It's mind blowing. Karthikeya and Huma done justice to their roles.
The only lag which some say was the family sentiments and the movie length. Common guys even fast and furious movies have lot of family sentiments and romantic scenes. Just watch it as a wholesome. The Only negative I felt that they could have explained in depth about the Satan Slaves cult.
VERDICT: Screw the critics it's an absolute action packed entertainment.

Well i come from Maharashtra and i knew not much about Ajith i had seen his transformation scene on YouTube,that's it. Then my dear friend recommended me one of his film i.e. Mankatha and i extremely liked that film and within week this films trailer had dropped which i liked so to say i was excited is an understatement.
This is without a doubt one of favourite films of the year the action set peieces are meticulously choreographed. The characters are relatable and that is the reason why this film work, the acting by all the cast members are good but the best thing about the film is the direction and cinematography.
Overall very good film that you can enjoy with family.
*PG7*
