  I saw this movie few weeks before and there is nothing in this movie .. and because of movies like this Tamils cinema stays unrecognized and quality less ... For the past Few years I am Watching Same replica of vijay's older movies his movie contains only the following :- 1. Mass introduction ( vijay splitting into 8 parts with crap old school graphics ) 2. Opening Unnecessary Fight 3. and opening Song ( Same crap only lyrics changes slightly ) 4. Heroine Introduction ( mostly he dashes heroine in any public place ) 5. Villain Introduction 6. Vijay and villain meets face to face 7. punch dialogs 8. song 9. fight 10.song 11.fight 12.song 13.villain kills vijay's friend or sometimes blood relatives 14.vijay plots revenge 15.vijay kills villain OR Villain changes his mind and becomes a good person.. If any one of you goes and tells him a story with the above mentioned plot.. he surely agrees to act as a hero under your direction.. Vijay is a mass hero .. he has many talents and i have appreciated his earlier movies. If he makes up his mind to act in only good movies with at least a descent story with the perfect entertainment .. vijay will not only fulfill his Fans expectation but also the other mature audience's expectation..

  The plot of this movie resembled to the previous movies like 'Sathyam' and 'thirupachi' which made me boring.But the songs were the one which made everyone to watch it on the screen. Vijay Antony contributed his best. Anushka had no chance for acting in this movie.still she looks beautiful in the songs. the stunts performed are very awful.comedy performed by vijay is quiet nice.The comedian role played by vijay is better than his old fashioned acting.Finally it's again a superb commercial treat for vijay fans only...Others please do not waste your precious time on this. Let's hope a better one from him on the coming years.

  Stop wasting money in this type of movie and spend money for poor people. 100% Kadikarran. Vettaikaran title did not suit for this movie, since Bagavathy movie story already used in diff way,they might have chosed Bagavathy 2 or hero character name. Many people asked same question in this movie, How come a gangster head suddenly become a Political minister without winning in election????? gangster-head met some person, no idea who is he, but he has rights to make him minister without political party meeting or what ever it is. movie 1st half no story, just done with heroin. why because producer paid much for her. 2nd half, no one was not able to understand why all those new scenes are coming in action. like villain said, in 3 months hero become big gangster. next to this scene, hero got enthu song where all people will pray for hero and looking help. Movie seems like they made lengthy movie but don't know how to work on editing section. all frames are like artificially attached, it doesn't has normal flow to understand. as like everyone words, vijai cant success on original stories, he has to be always remake hero from other language movies. questions : 1- in which college we are getting 1st year degree admission for aged people ? 2- can any gangster become Political Minister without winning election ? 3- in which police station,officers can have haircoloring by their junior police officer ? 4- Encounter specialist can shoot villains, but when he saw gangster in his, why cant he shoot them ? 5- in chennai which 4 corner road doesn't have traffic police in rush area ? 6- is people still there to believe all 0% logical movies ? ----------- Most wanted question : Can we use our car remote locking, when car is completely under water ? also if we lock car from outside, outsider cant go inside but people who are inside can come out from car right. but our hero did a brilliant( his brain) job in it, he locked car from outside, so that villain cant come out from car, bcos its locked :). even if hero doesn't lock , villain will die in water bcos he don't know swimming. but he died inside the car in 0% no water , why bcos our hero already locked car from outside ( note : all windows and doors locked ) . ---------- English movie director shows their imagination power in screen, always they make story and select suitable hero's. Tamil movie director's was making movies with message where public should understand life nature. but now few director making movie for hero and writing suitable story without any logical way and makes public fool. Movies like " Nadodigal " has 100% logical story. that movie has no popular face, all new actors, that made huge success. Since this movie 2nd half actions dint have continues line and it seems like trailer, why bcos all scenes are like attached artificially. Kindly wait for few months, you can watch this movie on popular TV channels during festival time.

• The best Tamil movie of the year

  Vettaikaaran is another racy commercial entertainer from Vijay like few of his earlier movies, but what makes it standing out is the handling of the subject and a fitting screenplay for which director Babu Sivan gets the credit. Right from choosing the cast, conceiving the scenes and making the screenplay engaging, his efforts to make the film successful are visible all over. His screenplay has all elements to satisfy Vijay fans and to keep the general audience glued to seats, considering that the film doesn't even have a separate comedy track. His dialogues are also precise and not overdone. For a debutant, he has done a good job by mixing all commercial elements in right proportions for entertainment. With respect to cast, Anushka does share a good chemistry with Vijay. She looks beautiful, dances gracefully and does her role perfectly. The Vijay-Anushka pair in songs is a lovely visual treat and they make a lively pair in the comedy and romantic scenes too. She shares a good amount of screen space in first half and makes a memorable presence in second half. Sanjitha Padukone, playing a sister-like friend to Vijay does a good job too, though we miss her in the second half. Srihari as Devaraj has an important role to play especially towards the climax and performs well. Shayaji Shinde as the corrupt policeman impresses with his acting and provides some comic relief too in second half of the film. Salim Ghouse as the main villain Vedanayagam and Sai Kumar's brother Ravi Shankar as his son Chella share meaty roles, pitted against Vijay. The other supporting cast including Sathyan, Sugumari and Manobala has done their roles to satisfaction. Racy Music from Vijay Antony with songs already being chart busters and a background score that suits the mood of the film are major credits for the film. The songs are all shot well with Puli Urumudhu topping the list. The song which shows the rise of Vijay in second half makes a big impact by giving the required adrenaline rush and placed perfectly in the film. The intro song "Naan Adicha" is very well choreographed by Shobi and towards the end when Junior Vijay aka Sanjay enters, the theatre is in splits. The kid does a very well stylish job true to the reputation of his father. Other songs are also visual treats and placed well in the film. The brilliant cinematography by Gopinath who earlier impressed in Ghilli and Kuruvi is another plus, as the camera takes you through the fun-filled first half and fast-paced second half with the same ease. Editing by V.T.Vijayan ensures in keeping the audience engaged from beginning to end. Stunts by Kanal Kannan are mostly very good, unlike the past two films of Vijay and the unwanted elements have been avoided. The scene before interval where Vijay jumps off the waterfall is pictured very well. There are many good sequences in the film, especially the Vijay-Anushka scenes mixing romance with humour in the first half and the plots Vijay makes against the villains in the second half. The review is not complete without talking about Ilayathalapathy Vijay who gives the blood and flesh to the skeleton of Vettaikaaran and makes it lively. Looking youthful as never before, dynamic and vibrant throughout, he has shouldered the biggest responsibility of satisfying his fans and general audience entirely. His dialogue deliveries, graceful and unmatchable dance movements in songs, hard hitting action and romance are always known for its brilliance. What is above these in Vettaikaaran is the gamut of expressions he brings in every frame, be it comic timing, anger, emotion or love. His hard work is evident in every frame. This film proves why Vijay is exceptionally best in the school of casual acting. The minor changes in getup he has done for a few short sequences are impressive. His style and screen presence leave a big impact on you and it is one of the best performances of Vijay in recent years. Though it is Sun Pictures' Vettaikaaran that has made the film reach every nook and corner this time, it is Vijay's Vettaikaaran that is going to stay in the minds of people in the coming months. While this is a perfect Christmas treat for Vijay fans, it is also a clean entertainer for anyone who likes watching Vijay on screen.
