2.0

Misses #Sujatha, the genius story teller and sci-fi author!

#Shankar is a professional who doesn’t compromise on budgets. But how did he think the storyline was strong enough to hold all the VFX 3D extravaganza?

Can Indians do an Avatar or Avenger kind of spectacular show? Of course, that’s why we have Shankar kind of directors doing 2.0 kind of films.

When Endhiran was released, I felt good that there is some science behind #Rajini’s super hero acts. Loved it every bit. 2.0 looks like a (meaningless) extension to it. That is all!

Message about how we need to create an eco-friendly environment to human beings and other creatures around alike, is important and good. With some semblance to his earlier movies like #Anniyan in terms of revenge, the storyline still isn’t creating that deep an impact. Moreover, does it need so much spend? End doesn’t justify means!

#AkshayKumar as an ornithologist has done very well. His body language is commendable. The dubbing for him fits his character to the T.

Thankfully #Amy is not what I was fearing her to be - Rajini’s love interest. Relief!

#ARR saves the day with his electronics magic tools!

Instead of watching a regional-dubbed Avengers, Tamil audience can now watch a totally “Made in TN/India” brand VFX movie with 2.0!

I’m now worried what if 3.0 happens with that last scene playing a kind of segue! God save us!!

Sarkar

I’m guilty. For as long as I’ve been eligible to exercise my vote, I have not done so one single time. In the next elections, I will dispense my duty as a responsible citizen of republic India.

For those of you who share the same sentiment of guilt, watch Sarkar just so that you make a similar vow.

Message is that much. But as always, the charmer #Vijay, conveys it with a lot of fanfare. Love his antics. Guess he is one true entertainer. His dance movements are so graceful.

Storyline has made good use of the social media fever and influence on the youth and old, all alike.

IMHO, such strong messages, especially for the masses, coming from youth icons like Vijay, will go a very long way in our kind of state/country. If all the masala items & illogical nonsense are removed, it would be more like a boring documentary.

If you wonder why I have not touched upon #KeerthySuresh, c’mon! I do not want to insult that performer any more. The injustice that #ARMurugadoss has done on even bringing her to such abysmal levels of performance is enough! Keerthy - do not come down from your pedestal. You are our evergreen #Mahanati.

#Varalaxmi and #Radha Ravi had more to do than Keerthy. Varalaxmi is good but someone should mentor her. Having a serious (chubby) face all the time, doesn’t make up for great acting.

How I wish Sundar Pichai could do offscreen, what Sundar Ramaswamy did onscreen! 😂

Good entertainer, Guys!
