      Appreciating the efforts of the team

      I don't understand why people have lots of flaws to find all the time. N most importantly don't compare this movie with the so called Magnum Opus 'Baahubali' which also had flaws. I agree with the fact that background was bad. For an Indian movie this sort of graphics is enough to satisfy everyone's expectation. Talking about an actor and his capabilities is something very stupid of you people who is already been in this field for 23 years and still successful. Overall this movie is to be appreciated on all aspects who all are not a fan of Hollywood would definitely love it. It is a total family entertainer and for kids they will definitely start liking Vijay after this movie.

      Certainly not VJ's best.

      Somewhat OK movie,can be a good one for Vijay fans but definitely not for others,visuals are fine but not PTO Baahubali' s level,same old story with very few unpredictable moments but very average time- passer,but a new try in Fantasy genre but certainly over-hyped.VJ,Sridevi,Sudeep,Shruti,Prabhu impress. Does not seem to justify its budget.Chimbudevan deserves an applause for trying to do something new but this movie definitely does not satisfy expectations.But certainly a new tryout for VJ also.His dance moves were better than the movie itself.A lazily told big budget fantasy action adventure that does not pack a punch.

      Puli -Fantasy Adventure in Indian Cinema with poor Screenplay !!

      First of all, the movie is not worst!! The main thing that spoils the film is screenplay...This is the fantasy adventure drama don't look for logics...Anything can done here...But worst thing here is unwanted songs in various sequence which made you to feel bored.When compared to first half, its full of fun and romance,the second half is much better...The director has completely failed to use the various popular artist which can be done better..But it will be loved by children when compared to adults...The VFX and CG is at best for the budget of the movie....one time watch-able!for the brave attempt in Indian cinema and for vjay screen presence!!

      Puli : A blunder film with idiotic story and poor execution

      Films like this make the Indian films look bad. This is the worst film from Tamil film industry in a while, even though not from Vijay. He made even worst films than this. This film underestimated the viewers in a deep level and checks the patience at high level.

      I seen the film but I didn't like a bit from it. Not even the graphics because it doesn't matter for a film like this with the poor story and script. The story is usual revenge film includes killing parents, kidnapping lover(s),item songs,exploiting feminine dances, etc. is not at all interesting. Puli had high resemblance with the BAAHUBALI in a very bad way even though it is an adventure fantasy film. Directors like Chimbudevan must see films like BAAHUBALI to get an idea about the current path and quality of Indian films. Even if it take in Tamil film standard Puli will be the black sheep because Tamil films is peak at its film's variety, quality and intelligent. This Puli is enriched with cheap Humors, bad actions and non sensing punch dialogs. It looks like a pollachi made film with bad dress.

      Please guys learn a lesson from this film and please not encourage them to make this kinda films for the sake of existence of film industry.

      Worst Vijay Movie ever made!!!

      I expected a minimum level of entertainment when I decided to watch the show in the first day itself. Also the campaigns for the promotion of the movie added much weight to the expectations, which always highlighted the big names casted in the film.

      Yes! The thread had a lot of potential. Even though it was a centuries old storyline in the fantasy genre. A hero, going on a hunt to retrieve his love from a scary castle. A lot of hurdles on the way, lot of fantasy creatures, and never seen before places to pass through.... There was more than enough room for an Adventure, action packed visual treat in the given plot. Even with this familiar fantasy thread, the movie could have been made a memorable one, with a strong screenplay and some advanced cinematography and editing. Even the background scores and the songs were well below the average, which made it painful for the audience.

      Starting 3-4 scenes, had somewhere some resemblance with bahubali. I am not complaining, but this is what i felt. Again, the camera didn't seem to use any kind of tints to create a feel of ancient days. Video as well as the audio department failed pathetically in taking the audience to another world. Even switching between scenes was not fluidic. The frames which displays the title for the first time and the introduction scene of the hero were at wrong timings, and couldn't generate any punch. The nicely trimmed hair of hero again added artificiality in the age in which the story happens. The costumes and make-up was not that bad , but lack of that colored tint in the scenes revealed that the materials were all modern.

      In many occasions, we could feel the resemblance with many famous fantasy movies, and it was expected. The castle area appeared to have been adapted from the prince of Persia video game, and some monsters, weapons, and some fight sequences adds strength to that belief. Any one who have played that game(warrior within) would have come across the same feelings when he watch this movie. This opinion is just my own feelings and i don't want to argue about this.

      Anyway, there were some occasions, or moments which gives the idea that direcion was not completely dry. And in many scenes VFX could show its potential too. Graphics was strong, but couldn't make its use to the best extent. Writer had good idea and good level of imagination and failed badly in the execution part. With this much amount of money and a proved set of actors, the movie fell miles short of a masterpiece.
