Review of Bigil

The film starts with an introduction of Michael followed by Verithanam song which is picturised beautifully. The romance portions were boring. The football matches were interesting but suffered from poor vfx. Next, coming to the Rayappan character, it was bit forced but still was the only redeeming factor of the first half. Only the entry of Rayappan was interesting for me, but it was ruined in the trailer. The first half ends with an interesting Interval block and the real story begins only in the second half. The fight scenes in the second half were also not much interesting but emotions covers the flaws to the large extent. The portions where he learns about the antagonist and the subsequent mass scene was fantastic. The police station scene was illogical but good. The episodes of married woman and acid attack victim were touching. The scene where Vijay scolds all the girls was funny and a special mention to the emotional climax. Cinematography was bliss and A.R Rahman's songs were great but the Verithanam bgm was awful. Cgi could have been better and editing could have been better in the first half. Villain character is again weak. A masala movie from Atlee-Vijay combo which can be definitely watched more than one time.
