VIVEGAM MOVIE REVIEW


Pre-release hype (9/10): It has been a long wait and a long build-up to it as well! Being promoted as an International Spy Thriller Film, hype has been high and healthy too. Expect huge box office collection in its first weekend due to advance bookings!


Songs review (6/10): Anirudh's music is loud and peppy, far from his best.


Story/screenplay/plot/dialogues (2/10): Under-developed plots, lots of logic loopholes and mistakes for an international film. Wish it focused more on the story. Dialogues on the other hand were mediocre. Some action scenes are influenced by Hollywood films as well. Writing for the villain role was a joke. Major disappointment in this category.


Performances (8/10): A full mark for Ajith sir for sure. Kajal was acceptable and Akshara Hassan brought freshness when the movie began to dull. Besides that, everyone played their part well without any major issues, in exception of Vivek Oberoi who was made more of a joker than a villain.


Songs-movie sync/timing (4/10): While Ajith singing with a mic over Yogi B's voice seemed unnecessary in 'Surviva' and 'Kadhaala' song being predictable, 'Veriyera' track at the climax was enough to spoil the film.


Cinematic value @ technical team (10/10): A major plus point of the film. Without it, Vivegam might just end up as the worst film of the year. Anirudh's background music, editing and camerawork at its best. Definitely worth the watch on a big screen!


Conclusion: One time watchable on the big screen. Applauds for grand set-pieces but a definite disappointment for cinema-lovers.
