Vikram (2022)
Puts you on the edge of the seat for the interval, and keeps you there only for the rest of the film.
Vikram is a written and directed by Lokesh kanagaraj, previously known for Kaithi, Master etc.
Its stars Kamaal Haasan, fahaad Faasil, and Vijay sathupathi in lead.
Its story revolves around a drug lord and his missions which are eventually or directly encountered by the government forces.
As the the music suggest its a story of ghost and his agendas and his operations with his team.
First half of the film builds the plot about the main character coincides with the drug mafia mission. The screenplay written for the interval block is just superb it literally put everyone guessing.
Later the interval there isn't much story or plot to unveil its solely depends upon the acting performance of Kamal Haasan, Vijay and Fahad and and cult screenplay of the captain Lokesh Kanagaraj.
The climax sequences are so well shot and directed its just pure entertainer for the audience to experience. Lokesh Kanagaraj past movie "Kaithi" and its connections to this and to its UPCOMING VENTURES, the universe he is in making shows its vision towards cinema. Theaters blasted for the last sequence.
The acting performance of Kamal Haasan sir the way he has portrayed the shade of that character and dialogue's are superb the action sequence he performed just nailed it there. Vijay Sethupati right from its entry itself the negative shade and his fear for the people and his fear from the top the chain are very well shown by him and that's also in few screens. Fahad faasil is the one who runs you through the story to hid and reveal things and eventually going through pain he nailed his role right from the first shot till the end.
Action sequences are so well choreograph and brutal are just treat to watch and also not for the children to watch.
The characterization else than leads are done well whether its on protagonist side or antagonist's. Few charters just looted the screen for some time.
Few comedy punches put in-between landed well for the story.
The romantic angle in Fahad characters life and the love between the Kamal Haasan and his grand child fits so well in all the chaos, and melts down smoothly.
Its all and all A BLOCKBUSTER Well Presented by the the Director Lokesh Kanagaraj. Kamaal sir's trust in him proved by this film. His Exceptional writing of the screenplay. Keeps engaged till the end.
The Climax! That Climax where he connected his past film Kaithi starrer Karthi, and introduced the negative charter yet loved by all who literally was a Icing on a cake for every Tamil film watcher.
Yes for the upcoming films of Lokesh or his this universe to understand one must watch Kaithi first for the references coming in-between or later to understand the subplot.
Kamal Haasan's charm is insane.
Sarsenapati Hambirrao (2022)
A commander in chief and his emotions.
This historical movie is a about a life of Hansaji Mohite who was SARSENAPTI AKA commander for Chhartrapati Shivaji Maharaj and Chhatrapati Sambhaji Maharaj.
Movie is primarily on his life after he becomes a commander till his death. His emotions are well portrayed in the film. Action sequences were choreograph well and at locations and are authentic. Background music for other characters like Gashmeer Mahajani who played double role of Chhartrapati Shivaji Maharaj and Chhatrapati Sambhaji Maharaj were good which did not drop flat.
His family and living were shown with beautiful screens over the time. Film does not have many songs. Yes its a well written movie with few good and other average screenplays. The best thing is its dialogues which are so well written while adding few sanskrit phrases to it.
A political angle added to it for a time which may or may not coincide with history but are surely strengthen the hambirarao's character.
The emotions and his oath towards country and his king is so well shown which hit each and every person in theater.
Other characters played by rest of the cast is done well and directed. Yes its Maharashtra's Mahacinema
as its a big budget Marathi movie till date.
Every screen and historical time shown is beautiful and seems real. It puts a patriotic spirit to each one watching rather having a emotional end.
Its a must watch for everyone. Reginal cinema here also is growing.
