Sura was supposed to be a big splash, especially with Vijay leading the cast, but instead, it turned into an anchor dragging Tamil cinema down. Directed by S. P. Rajkumar, this 2010 disaster promised action, drama, and heroism but ended up delivering something that felt more like a chore than entertainment.
The story follows Sura, a fisherman with a heart of gold, who takes on a ruthless politician trying to evict his village. Sounds noble enough, right? But somehow, this simple plot ends up being stretched to the point where even the audience feels seasick. With a screenplay that drags on like molasses and dialogue that makes you cringe, Sura doesn't even give Vijay the chance to show off his usual charm.
Let's not forget the action scenes. They're so over-the-top and unbelievable that it's almost like watching a cartoon - and not the good kind. We get scenes of Vijay fighting off villains in the most unrealistic ways, and instead of feeling exciting, they just look absurd. Even the music by Mani Sharma, which could've added life to this mess, falls flat with forgettable tracks that do nothing to enhance the film.
By the time the credits roll, the only thing Sura manages to do is make you wish you'd done something else with those two and a half hours. Despite Vijay's best efforts, this film was a massive letdown, proving that sometimes even the biggest stars can't save a sinking ship.

Vijay is definetly is the crowd puller of the kollywood industry..I am his huge fan after watching thulladha manamum thullum,kushi,priyamanavale,ghilli etc....One of the reasons for his present success is the film 'Sura'.His 50th film made him realise that he need to change and be selective in his scripts.The downfall of sura brought a huge change in him and you can see that in nanban,Thuppakki,kathi,mersal,bigil etc.....
Coming to sura....the movie has the worst direction and screenplay.....The comedy scenes are a headache....Only the songs and Vijay's dance moves are a bit enjoyable....While on paper ...it looks like a good formulaic story...The presentation made it a worst watching experience....An actor like vijay was totally wasted in this movie....
i already wasted my time watching this movie? should i waste my time writing a review for it?? no ways.. since i should write at least 10 lines, i am just giving a basic review. Vijay is capable of doing best films.. choosing this film was a terrible mistake.. this movie never works in any departments! 50 movie of vijay should have been a massive hit. unfortunately it didn't work. hopefully he chooses better films with better script after this!! i didn't have a choice to rate it below 10 or i would have give it 0.5/10. that 0.5 mark for vijay alone. i love many of his movies , but this movie is completely waste! i don't want to talk anything else about the movie.. not even worth watching it in TV.
I can't believe I sat through the whole running time. This is undoubtedly the worst attempt at a movie (no, I'm not going to call it a movie) I have seen. A movie entirely based on idolizing, worshiping and butt-kissing a self proclaimed super star who attempted, but failed, and failed miserably in trying to use this as a platform for his supposed entry into politics. It's not the anti-logic in the movie script that annoys me the most, it's not the comedy bit played by Vadivelu that made me weep in agony...it's the sheer arrogance in which the director has gone about in making this...this thing the way it is. A floor mop and a water bottle could have played Tamanna Bhatia's role better. Watch this movie, only if you like torture as a form of entertainment. No, actually, just don't watch this movie.
