Japan

Cops in search of a culprit named 'Japan' for robbing a jewellery shop.

Unexpected film from Actor Karthi (played as a lead 'Japan') and director Raju Murugan. Unexpected in the sense 'disappointed'.

The main reason was the poor screenplay. The film started, travelled and ended in a complete boring way. Not even attractive in a single scene. None of the technical aspects supported this film. The composition and a few frames of this film worked from a cinematography aspect. Even the title card didn't perfectly made and the tag animation of Karthi's 25 (The 25th film of the actor who performed the 'Japan' character)too had poor graphics. The cast performed really well.

Nothing positive to say about this film. Really disappointing!! This film would have been better if the importance of Japan's character gave to the screenplay. Only the Japan character, Karthi's performance, his costume design and make up shines.

Yo, peeps, let's break down this flick real quick. The plot? Not the most thrilling ride, ya feel? The storytelling is a'ight, and some scenes got that good pen game, while others just straight-up snooze-worthy.

Now, Japan's character? A mix, fam. Sometimes, it's all entertaining and got you smirkin', but other times, it's just flat-out annoying. The director's hustle is decent, nothing mind-blowing. Karthi brings the heat with a solid performance, no cap. Anu Emanuel? Sorry, but she's kinda putting us to sleep. Sunil does his thing like always, so mad props to him.

Now, peep this: the locations, sets, and fits are on point-props to the crew for that. Cinematography? Straight fire. Background music? It bumps. Should you check it? Nah, but if you catch it, keep them expectations in check, you feel me?

This movie is one of the prime examples of enduring oneself in cinematic torture, and I find myself envying those who had the foresight to download this film instead of wasting their time and money at the theatre. I wish the critically acclaimed Raju Murugan didn't indulge in pleasuring himself with visual appeal over narrative coherence.

This is solely made for the sake of aesthetic buffoonery. The gags are not organic, and the film feels forced from start to finish.

I would not recommend it to anyone, even those who loves the director's previous work or the fans of actor Karthi. I know Karthi has delighted audience with his creative endeavours churning out some good to passable films. But this film is desperate to be edgy and juvenile that both the Director and cast forgot what it means to make a decent cinema.

In closing, this is a film that will make you wish you could get back the time you wasted watching it. Those who are planning, Run far, far away and reclaim those precious minutes of your life. You'll thank me later.

Senseless Narration * Lackluster Story & Very Poor Screenplay * Forgettable Songs * Silly Heroine Track & Investigation Scenes * Half Baked Sub Plots * Weak Characterizations.

* no logic and all characters look like serial drama artist for episodes * Worst body language of karthi and don't know what he is trying to imitate * Even the screenplay is very weakly written. The flow of scenes never makes any proper sense and the scenes never create an interest in the way they are being unfolded on screen. All the subplots are poorly written, especially the heroine track looks very silly and unwanted as she appears only for 10 minutes in the whole film. Even the whole investigation process never engages us.

This is by far the worst movie I've watched in my entire life. I cannot believe that an actor like Karthi would choose to make a movie like this. It does not even fall into the category of 'so bad that it's good'. This movie is horrible at every aspect and must be avoided at all costs.

There is no progression to the story, nothing to look forward to. There's loud background music at every step of the way and too many unnecessary sub plots. Watching the movie honestly felt like a punishment. I couldn't even sit through the entire duration of the movie. My humble request to everyone would be to watch any movie other than this.

I was so disappointed by the movie that I had to write a review on it (also happens to be my first IMDb review).
