DialR4Review RATED 8/10

Lot of goosebump moments, fantastic action choreography and lot of buildup elevations....The director knows how to use the full potential of heroism with the flavour of sentiment. Negatives: there are plenty of fights and nothing else. Too much of blood and gravity defying actions... and the story is wafer thin and highly predictable, except the climax twist, which leads to the second part. Positives: Each action sequence has one good background story and it elevates mass moments of the fight. Even the initial kid action block and dialogs gives goosebumps.... Worth the watch with good crowd of fans....

DialR4Review RATED 9/10

This is solid thriller movie with good awareness message to all parents. The mobile and its impact shown in the movie are hard hitting. Sidharth did a great job as actor and producer to this movie. The kid is awesome, the naughty, victim and recovered angelic faces are ultimate. Kudos to the child artist. The serial killing, child abuse and hard hitting investigation are written brilliantly and presented as a top notch thriller movie. Sidharth was ultimate when he was blamed for the first time and little bit of overdosed acting on revenge stage. Nimisha looks like waster till the end, but her story makes the huge impact to the drama and shows the men view on all these issues... Good cinema and solid drama...

DialR4Review RATED 7/10

This is typical revenge story of a hitman and the remaining's of old life with some twisted characters and nice action blocks. I cant like this movie fully because of the templated and predictable story line. But the climax and ending of each character gives the satisfaction to the movie watching. The character development and their decision are quite interestingly helped for this revenge drama. The crisp running time helps much for the pace of screenplay. The father daughter duo actors done very well and acting was very good. One time watchable.

DialR4Review RATED 8/10

This is pakka mixture of solid drama with superb action sequences. Lot of moments resembles to "Dheeran athigaaram ondru" movie. But Mammootty with his swag, outshined the shadows of Dheeran. The first 30 mins has more of investigation and it holds the viewers attention fully. Then next one hour is more of drama and travel and failed to hold the viewers as much. The last one hour is chase which is good. The village fight sequence was top notch and like Mammotty very much on this one and last phone conversation. Must watch for all cinema lovers.

DialR4Review RATED 5/10

The first failure of this movie is the cast and immediate second one is witting. This is not even close to the directors earlier movie, very half backed one. Premji's real life character is aptly fit for the lead role but his acting skills killed the movie. Other than police and Judge all other characters are total mis cast and the ladies are with full glossy makeup in pakka village backdrop. This adds the feel of serial drama. There are very few funny/good moments, but we cant sit throughout the movie just for these few good moments.

Compliance

DialR4Review RATED 7/10

The film was genuinely shocking, primarily due to its basis on a real-life incident, which heightened the tension throughout. The sequences of scenes had the potential to unfold in various directions, yet they followed a linear path of misfortune, possibly due to the interweaving of multiple real life incidents. At a certain juncture, the accumulation of wrong turns became overwhelming and detracted from the movie's realistic factor. However, the character who emerged in the climax to salvage the situation provided a sense of relief. It's worth watching once to gain awareness of such peculiar situations.

DialR4Review RATED 7/10

The movie is solely watchable because of Arjun Das and his voice. Vasantha Balan is failed make the impact and this is definitely missed chance. The story and characters are fine, but most of the time it got overdosed and the scenes were so over dramatic. With all these flaws, the movie is still watchable because of the main character's hope and his stand on his character. Other than main character, no other character looks original and not stand on their point till the end. Too much of violence and too much of drama killed the movie. One time watchable.

DialR4Review RATED 7/10

First, very big kudos to Ragava, Karthik and SJ Surya. All excelled in their role. Movie is so heavy and superb. The interval and climax bangs are nicely done. BUT the entertainment value missed very much in this second part. The movie is so serious from beginning to end with very few relaxing moments. At last Lawrance got meaty role to show all his potential, but still little bit of Rajni is coming out in some scenes. The climax lead to Sethu is interesting one. This is really worthy movie to watch, lot of good dialogs and fantastic production values. But highly missed the entertainment, that too on Deepavali time. Some period mistakes in the movie like showing theatre with 70MM screen in 1975 time, Police guns and some more

DialR4Review RATED 6/10

Director thought, if you put old hits as background you can do any illogical and madness in the screen. Silk scene sequence also similar to that one. SJ Surya is ultimate in this venture and he saved the whole movie single handedly. Whenever he appears in the screen, it was like fire cracker. All other scenes are so dud and sometimes not bearable too. The story is OK, the fantasy angle helped lot in movie flow and comic angle. Vishal with that beard and wig, it is total unfit. Especially his climax mannerisms are irritating to the core. My advice would be, wait for OTT release, so that you will have control in your hand to forward and skip as much as possible.

DialR4Review RATED 8/10

If you want to watch mindless action movie and don't want to check on cast/acting, then this is the perfect one. It is popcorn entertainer to spend the perfect way of your weekend movie time. If you are looking for good story and great acting, please skip this one. It has nothing of that sort, but it has very good action flow throughout the movie. Alia Bhatt role was looks like meaty in the beginning, but later she become doll in the flow. After MI, this also fights against the computer/AI, so dont expect too much from villain. They used some interesting navigation and cloud fighting, it was bit interesting to watch with real good sound effects in big screen.

DialR4Review RATED 3/10

Just to kill the time, started to watch this movie. It failed that expectation also. Its totally unbearable movie watch and so amateur. It is clearly visible that they tried to make women centric revenge thriller with some twists in the climax. Total failure on everything, including the cast. Sunaina was irritating and the climax mass pose is top notch. It has no substance just a revenge story, thats all... if you want to watch a movie and want to troll with your friends while watching, then this is the perfect one. Gather your friends and you will have complete TROLL enjoyment till the very end.

DialR4Review RATED 10/10

The subtle comedy and high pitch heroism perfectly worked out in this movie. The big Kudos to Aniruth and Camera work....Both camera and BGM elevated all the scenes to mass level. There are lot and lot of surprises in the proper interval, The cameos are ultimate, they are not just used for screen presence. Their mass moments are highly used for the movie mass scenes.... Alapparai kilapurom song is ultimate and it is the real treat to all Rajni fans.... First half is so funny at the same time it is revealing layer by layer of Rajni. The story is wafer thin still the comedy and action blocks make this as racy entertainer. Second half is bit more serious and felt little bit dragged. But this is taken care with top level mass scenes.... It is full and full Rajni movie with lots of slow motion, top angle scenes.... the spects holding scenes are goosebump starting scenes... Get full and full Rajnified with this movie...

The murderer

Movie: The murderer
Language: Thai

DialR4Review RATED 8/10

Based on the trailer, we can tell that the movie is a satirical take on murder night, presented in an entertaining manner. The only drawback is that it feels a bit lengthy and loses its pace in the middle. The screenplay deserves the highest praise as it keeps the events engaging, adding layers of fun and detail from start to finish. All the actors perform admirably. The climax provides a convincing justification for all the murders, and the final twist adds an enjoyable element. Despite being full of blood, the film wisely avoids excessive gore. In conclusion, this is a must-watch movie.

Felt bored and stretched in some places. I Thought Some sequences are added to fill the gaps. Once the movie reached the climax the complete perspective is changed. The beginning and end frames are so hard hitting ones. The movie flows in slow paced and how the police officers lives in the remote top of the mountain. The problems and incidents they face in the small place with limited conversation are captured nicely and n slow manner.. I really liked the way they present the scenes where beef issue and how he avoid the food in table with both brahmin and close friend. Towards end the story and characters become haunting one and add more grip to the story Dont miss it.

The movie has quite different and less travelled backdrop and characters are fresh for this story. First twenty minutes, it was very difficult to follow the movie, later its become slow burner and hooked to the murder investigation. The story flow and how it travel across different locations and revealing the different layers of the characters nicely. The climax is bit unexpected and looks more abrupt. The best part is that all the characters had the grey shade in this story but still good human being. Decent watch and tune for the slow narration.

The best thing about this movie is the story and the moral they spread throughout the movie. Towards the end of the movie, the moral hit hard on our face. Just for this impact, i am recommending this movie. That "kudukuduppai" wordings are fantastic and the title of the movie justifies. Superb story and below average scene sequences. Lot of scenes reminds of Serial type. The Movie starts and end very well, in between they made lot of silly mistakes in the making that disturbs the whole viewing. Adjust your expectations on the making and slow pace of the movie. Then definitely this would be a surprising affair. Recommended for one time watch.
