Anjaan

Anjaan!!!! Good Cast ,Santhosh Sivan with the Camera , Yuvan with the Music and the over-rated Lingusamy calling the shots is a disappointment.

Plot Review: The Movie Starts of well but slowly the guessing game becomes too easy. The Placement of songs is too pathetic. It seems Lingusamy has followed a formula that as soon as a villain is killed a song is to be played. You literally start praying for no more songs at a point when the director cruelly plagues you with one.

Acting: There is not much acting the actors can do when the story & script is such a big let down. Barring the 1 scene from Manoj Bajpai where he proves his class there is nothing much to say.

Pros: Nothing to be dead honest!! Bang Bang Bang Song may be. Cons: Story , Screenplay & Direction.

ANJAAN MOVIE is commercial entertainment movie Director Linguswamy deals with a simple story revolving around a revenge film with some mass type one ( love, friendship and revenge).

Suriya looks smart and stylish performance too. But fail to impress. Surya should Could have been selected better story.

Samantha adds only glamor part of the movie.

Vidyut Jammwal is one of important pivotal role of the movie , but suriya & vidyut bonding friendship is fail to click.

Soori and Brahmanandam adds for comedy too, but not good- Huhhh.

Too many villains in the movie....

Yuvan Songs are very bad...

Santhosh sivan Camera adds best in the movie..

Dialogue are good but repeated often.

Pros: surya / Santhosh sivan Camera

Cons: Story / Music / Lengthy Screen play

Verdict : Only for surya fans.

Bhai bhai Raju Bhai... bore bhai..

Anjaan - a much awaited Don story of this year with a great crew in it, Surya, Vidyut, Samantha, Yuvan, Santhosh Sivan & Linguswamy. But the movie doesn't go well as expected...

Strength :

Surya's daring look :

Surya looks is daring in this movie. Seems to be the best ever look for Surya. Everyone is waiting to see his stylish look in the movie. The way he took the toothpick from his mouth in most of the scenes was awesome.

Yuvan's music:

Its bang bang all over the world. Rocking intro song by Yuvan made the movie to rock. Kadhal Aasai with Yuvan style with superb visuals its a treat to audience.

Santhosh Sivan:

Santhosh Sivan cinematography was the great plus point in this movie. His visuals of Mumbai was awesome.

Weakness:

Story and Screenplay:

As a much awaited Don story it doesn't have any daring scenes. Billa 2 was not a huge hit, but its having many mass scenes which is missing in this movie. Movie goes very slow and its too boring in some scenes.

Length of the movie:

Length of the movie is almost 2 hrs 50 min which is another minus point. There are many unnecessary scenes such as Surya, Vidyut and Samantha dances for Hindi songs and Ek Tho Theen song (which cant be removed as it is sung by Surya).

Twists and turns:

There are too many twists and turns in the movie which are easily predictable by audience. Whatever Lingu thought its gonna be a great twist was guessed by most of the audience easily.

Vidyut Role:

After Billa2 and Thuppaki Vidyut is doing his 3rd film in Tamil. In 1st two movies Vidyut role was awe somatic, there were many fan followers even though he was a villain. But in Anjaan he doesn't have a good role. Only one fight with Main villain was good. There is not much expected chemistry for Surya and Vidyut.

Facebook comments :

There are some Facebook comments to be noted

"Viswa Bhai is better than Raju Bhai"

"Both Vishwa and Raju Bhai failed to impress the audience"

"Before release Anjaan will be like Baatcha for Rajini, Billa for Ajith, Thuppaaki for Vijay. After release Anjaan is like Baaba for Rajini, Alwar for Ajith, Sura for Vijay.

Even though the film is old wine in new bottle its is watchable Suriya is the backbone of the film film has a good first half and an average second half...Without some twists the story is predictable Suriya has done a great job with both roles but his hard work spoiled by bad screen play when coming to rest of cast,its not bad Samantha is charming...with lot of cleavage shows...she shocked as with 2 sec bikini.but in case of acting is average Vidyuth done a good performance.but his lip movements is bad others are just average coming to technical work,Santhosh sivan done a great job by his extra ordinary camera works Stunts are really good Back ground score is also good

Verdict:The movie is once watchable

If you are looking for an outstanding action plot (or) a perfect time- pass flick, then definitely this is not the film you are looking for.

First of all, the story is itself not well scripted and executed with a very average screenplay. Obviously the film contains few mass scenes and interesting sequences. But that is not alone enough to lift a movie up.

The major assets of the movie are, Suriya, Vidhyut Jamwal, Santhosh Sivan & few sequences in the first half. Suriya, as usual had nailed his role perfectly. But the director had made his characterization badly. Vidhyut Jamwal had a different role in this movie and he had also perfectly done his role. Cinematographer Santhosh Sivan had pictured Mumbai in a better manner.

The major negatives of the film are unwanted scenes in the second half and unexciting screenplay. The film lost its track somewhere in the second half and till climax, the director failed to bring the audience's attention back to the film.

Overall, this movie may be a stuff for Suriya fans where they can enjoy Suriya's screen presence in every frame. But for others, definitely this is not a film they could enjoy.
