Varisu

I'm really disappointed with the movie..... Total waste of money and lost interest while watching the movie itself.... Same old style of Vijay all over the movie..Similar expressions. No twists and turns..... Able to easily guess what can happen in the next set of scenes.....Why do we even have Anthony character? Rashmika appearance is total waste of money.....Background music isn't that great. Felt like watching a long Television serial in less than 3 hr window because there was a problem created followed by a solution immediately and this continous throughout the movie.... Comedy isn't good at all. Overall, waste of time watching the movie.

Opinion : Overall Varisu , though it has nothing special or new by means of content , it has some good commercial and entertaining elements done by Thalapathy Vijay and that us what makes Varisu a decent enough watch for the general Audience

Positives : Vijay Sense of humor worked well all over without any irritating mannerism . Thaman Music and BGM keeps us engaging and not bored . Avoided many Cringy sequences . Dialogues are enjoyable . Sarathkumar role was mature.

Negatives : Rashmika is not even made use except songs. Few Background VFX CG works throughout the film is seen barely that diverts our concentration towards the film . Flat and Predictable Storyline. Could have added few twists or suspense sequences to make it more interesting. Emotions worked in parts only.

Verdict : Overall Vamshi has given a simple film with some enjoyable moments for the Targeted audience for this festival that will work well with fans and family audience alone .

Rating : 3 / 5

Go without expectation. It would be a decent festival watch for fans and fun filled watch for family Audience.

I'm not opposed to family drama films. But I'm having trouble connecting with this one. A wealthy family is experiencing family conflict. Our hero arrives to preach everyone, making them realize their error and directing them in the right direction. A large mansion with limited people. The restroom alone is the size of a football stadium. Everyone is driving expensive cars and talking about billions of dollars and share market. Majority of the audience members were unfamiliar with the rich life and they were unable to connect with the movie.

Lets come to our hero who preach his mother, father, brother, sister in law, police man, servant, Villans, audience list goes on.. OMG i cant tolerate. U cant forceful keep a preaching dialogue just to show he is some kind of saint. Just one time(accidentally) watchable, such a bore to core.

I think Vijay had a list of TODO/wishes and one of them was to make a direct Telugu film, this film checks off that item from his wishlist, that's how I see this film.

It's a typical Telugu commercial masala film and not much different from other thousands of Telugu films that have ever been made.

One slight differentiator is that it is directly linked to the Hindi film: K3G, which came 22 years back, and if you have watched & liked that film, the probability of you liking this film goes up tremendously. I have an emotional connection with K3G and hence the first half of this film gelled very well, especially the mother-son sentiment worked really well for me, that's the best part of the film for me.

Similarly, there are many other Telugu film references like the previous Allu-Arjun films' board room meeting scene and it might connect with some other people and so on & so forth, that's the beauty/Pros of making a collage film.

Vijay's mannerisms with dialogues from other multiple films mocking others & a few times in Redin Kingsley's mannerisms lifted the scenes to a different level altogether. The thing is even with different hairstyles (IDK, if it's a wig) & his stomach puffed up, he's still watchable.

And all the other actors did play their roles very well, especially the 2 who played the parents produced top-notch performances that take us into an emotional roller-coaster ride, that's the beauty of having the senior most actors in the film.

Basically, it's a wholesome family entertainer with gameplay within the family business and hence it might give a bit of a feel like watching a serial, especially in the 2nd half where the film gets slow but still not bad enough at all as you literally get to have that satisfaction of having full meals after watching the entire film.

Overall, it is definitely a one-time watch if you want to have a wholesome feeling all from one single film, especially if you like watching the usual Telugu commercial films.

Movie starts with sentimental note and colourful song. Vijay is in full energy in all aspects, especially in songs. The first 30mins sentiments and most of the second half are more cliche and routine. Prakash raj is in worst form, his character is very average and just irritates.

Later movie starts to go in good entertainer path in first half. Director brings back old Ghilli vijay in comedy scenes and sentiment scenes

The cancer sentiment and tear jerking scenes worked well with feel good way instead of serial way, director succeeded in this writing in first half

All the hype and sentiment went to vein in the highly predictable second half. It has mass moments, but it is diluted with HIGHLY predictable scenes and character.... Not even single scene is original in the second half, all are already done and dusted in masala movies already

One time watchable for the first half and songs....
