Tell everyone that a corpse came and ruined everything. Michael, whose name scares all the gangsters around, began hunting his abuser from an early age. No one knows where he came from or who he wants. So Michael gets close to the head of the crime syndicate, enlisting his trust and protection. Once his boss instructs him to find and kill a traitor, and with him his daughter. Michael goes into business without question, but suddenly finds himself captive of his own memories, which threatens his boss with a breakdown of the operation.
A few years ago, Ranjit Jayakodi came out of nowhere with his social thriller drama ' Mysterious Puzzle' and became kind of known to the public. His success, of course, owes much to Tamil philanthropist Vijay Sethupathi. Ranjit’s first film really succeeded, despite mixed reviews from critics. And I was glad that the ranks of good directors were replenished, but then it happened ' Michael & #39; I've already noticed that everyone who ever started working with Seth is holding on to him with all their might. Ranjit is no exception. Fortunately, this time Seth did not have time for a full-fledged role and he limited himself to cameos. However, the PR move was made very competently. Not only is the name Sethu immediately after the name of the main character, and it deftly suggests, how long will this cameo be? So in the trailer it is explicitly stated that Lokesh Kanagaraj himself is involved in the film. As it turned out, he just presented the Tamil version of the trailer to the audience in Tamil Nadu. On one resource there is an article under the heading - ' The names of Sethupathi and Kanagaraj on the poster increased the box office ' True, but even that didn’t save the movie.
. . Second-rate scenario. The plot is classified as a specific genre of neonur. Ranjit apparently liked how beautiful the word sounds, but unfortunately he did not understand its meaning. The script, written by him, for some reason brings events to the 90s. At the same time, this time does not resemble anything in the film, except for the fact that we were shown a disk phone several times and a blurred chronicle flashed twice. The following attempts at specificity were born out of the way history is transmitted. The narrative jumps chaotically from the past to the present. Sometimes it is difficult to determine how much time passes between events. In principle, at the very beginning it becomes clear that everything is done for the sake of revenge, but then the main character has a love pericline literally from scratch. Dialogues according to the script were not very smart, and with the advent of the heroine, they were rebuilt on some prelude to sex, which has nothing to do with the plot. Well, at least the gangster showdowns helped tune in to the gloomy mood of the neonoir, but everything developed so childishly naive that there was nothing to count on. But the worst thing was with glorification. For the most part, it existed on intimidating words, like ' fear, now the babaika will come for you'. Then, all this visual heroic paraphernalia, intensely callous eyes, was absolutely not justified because of it. ..
. . .medium acting. I think it was a consequence of the fact that the actors themselves did not understand how to play. Their heroes as individuals do not reveal themselves from the word at all. They've been labeled indiscriminately: this one is a mafia boss, this one is a scumbag, etc. Sundip Kishan (Michael) is the most controversial character. Sundip himself is an actor faceless and of the same type, it is specially necessary to adjust the script to make it look profitable. Here he was just thrown into the open sea, seemingly creating his hero a certain glory, and then flounder yourself as you can. As a result, he simply became stiff and with the same expression lived, loved and killed. I thought Gautam Vasudev Menon (Gurunath) would try, after all, he himself is a director with experience. No way. Everything was also played on one note. There was more sympathy for him than for the main character. It was sad to see Varun Sandesh (Amarnath). I am terribly saddened that once a wonderful talented actor, so briskly began his acting career, has slid to the level of such roles as snobs. Although his Amar was probably the most emotional, or rather overly impulsive character. But still among all of them he was the most ' live', however, the location to his hero is difficult to penetrate, because the guy with obvious rottenness. And finally, Divyansha Kaushik (Tira). Oddly enough, she harmonized very well with Sundip in absolutely 'wooden' game. Dancing with their participation would be better not even shown, it looks like just hugging and crying. According to the sensations, Divianshi tried to fashion a European lady, judging by her style of communication and behavior. I do not want to say that Tyra exuded stupidity to the right and left, but she did not show anything clever either.
Now we're getting to the most important thing, Sethupatha's cameo. The role came out for fifteen minutes, for the plot of the film did not matter at all, as if his character was not scripted at all. But most importantly, with the appearance of Sethu on the screen, the theater of the absurd played with new colors. Ranjit was apparently inspired by Sethu’s films as gangsters and decided it was vital that he present him in the same vein in his project. Why, I ask. The answer is simple – just for his fans. Yeah, Seth looked spectacular. Yeah, he was cool. However, in the film, he appeared as an alien who suddenly appeared on the doorstep, and then also suddenly disappeared. The absurdity of his role was incomprehensible unpredictability. This is a good example of an actor being used to make money. Honestly, Sethu's altruism is just off the charts.
No matter how powerful support Ranjit enlisted, no matter how these comrades sang the praises of his new work, you can not hold the audience. I didn’t see a single positive review of the film, and the rating is corresponding, if not slightly overstated, as much as 5 points on imdb. The box office barely covered the cost of the film. I don’t think anyone would seriously complain about Ranjit’s mediocre project if it wasn’t for these stunts for the sake of public relations and attempts to give the film the meaning of a serious picture. From the point of view of an adequate assessment, we were shown a simple action movie, sometimes unfinished and too naive. There are concerns that the film may have a sequel, although I hope the mixed audience reaction will cool the director's fervor a bit. And, accordingly, I will not recommend watching the film this time, because there is nothing to watch. Everyone's in a good mood!
