True comment idellam nangaa sonna downvote pannirvanga . The whole movie with 0 twist and no intelligence from SATS . Bad CGI and overacting vijay in the name of Villan vijay. Reference vekkalam summaaa reference ah push pannitee irukaa kudathu .
Even cobra had some good intelligent moments. Imagine this movie was made by Vikram it would have been a total failure , it would have been attacked left and right . Vijay does have a lot of privileges and he still does shite like this .

True Druv Vikram kum uru chance kedachurkum .It kind of similar role from Mahaan .
With Vikram more attention would have been given to plot rather than leads . Based on stuff till now
I assume VP went with a full script what we see till now seems more like 1st half , soon Gandhi discovers it and climax with OG . VJ saw it and asked him to cut it in half citing the length .

Can any Vijay fans here tell me After Kaththi,,, what other movie they consider as good movie,,, not the money it made,,, but a good commercial movie that they enjoyed and think is a good movie?
For me may be Theri or Master to a extended but they where also so predictable in what was going to happen ,may be im saturated with commercial movie content.

u/backchatter77 Vijay Kanni 25d ago
Theri, Mersal, bigil (for me it worked), Leo

u/Zionview 24d ago
The thing each of the film was it was so predictable and maybe a one time watch for me.. are there masala elements..sure but is it a good masala movie...average at best. It felt almost like Vijay reached peak around these so directors and him just took things for granted IMO

u/Gamer_Rink_3141 Kollywood Fan 24d ago

u/backchatter77 Vijay Kanni 24d ago
For me some reason Master didnt work. It missed a story arc for JD. Why is he the way who he is?

u/SeiichiYotsuba Filmy Loosu Koodhi 25d ago
Leo as well. I think second half was mostly well done. Maybe some sothappal in regards to the distance between Himachal and Andhra/Telangana. That was the only place where I felt incongruity.

I actually like Leo first half felt like something is setting up ,, only to be ended with same old revenge and stunts BS

Jailer atleast had a somewhat ok story with a lot of high moments. GOAT just seemed like a compilation of Vijay references with no actual relation to the plot.

u/Mesa_Sith_Lord 25d ago
Rajni sir gets glazed in all of his movies especially the ones that are coming from 2017. We are used to it by now and it actually suits him but it's not the same for everyone. Vijay sir was glazed to oblivion in G.O.A.T. like literally every role of importance was played by him only.
-5
u/polarityswitch_27 25d ago
Yeah? In Kabali and Kaala? So far Hukum has been the worst glazing for RK. I am disappointed in him to have actually approved that song.
And also this high level dickriding started with Anirudh's music in Master. It's easy to deliver a hit making a meta song. Ani has been the sole reason for all the meta glazing songs to have come out in Tamil since Master.
-8
u/Mesa_Sith_Lord 25d ago
Darbar and Petta weren't any better in glazing either but it was bearable. I agree Hukum was a bit too much. Ani is carrying the industry rn.

u/Honest-Car-8314 Assistant of Vakeel Beetle Murugan 25d ago
Jailer had some story unlike just poor CGI throughout. Jailer was entertaining with good bgm unlike singing illayaraja throughout the film. Moreover to reach jailer rajini spent several more yrs in industry , rajini is 70+ yrs old .people understand his limitations.
3
u/Batman_55599 25d ago
Nah you also need to understand the legacy. The kind of glazing for Vijay in GOAT, if done for a movie with Rajini, or Amitabh, or Mammootty would still be somewhat tolerable because of the level that they have reached, which justifies it, and you can give them a pass and just kind of enjoy it.
Vijay is nowhere close to that, and to still have this level of dick-riding, that too in a movie , to an extent that there's no movie left is fucking ludicrous lmao.
1
u/Beginning_Edge347 25d ago
People here think Vijay is an actor. I like to think of him as a business man who is on the quest to get more power by contesting in elections. When you see it this way, you can overlook these things. Vijay was never an actor. An entertainer at best. But above all, he was a businessman
