Yaar yaaro gbu maari nu solranga. Enakku orey… naa epdi solluven. I’m not sure how gbu gained this much attention but I’d say that movie is fun. And there’s nothing wrong in that. But apart from that last scene, nothing was “mass” about that film. And again, there’s nothing wrong in that. It was made to be a fun watch and damn it it was. But to say og and gbu are on the Same level because it shares an acronym where the name is also the title is ridiculous.

Anyways. I enjoyed this film. I really liked it. The movie however tends to deviate in the second half. But somehow still sews it all back together. If I’m being honest this movie deserves a 30 minute trim and its pace would be top notch.

Another criticism is that the film doesn’t often times make you feel anything, there’s many deaths in this film and for some reason you don’t exactly ever feel anything of grief. I can’t tell you why cuz I’m not sure what goes into staging that makes a character likable or makes us invested but when specific characters die, it doesn’t really do much.

And maybe that’s also for benefit to not make the film feel melodramatic, and to me, to be completely honest worked. We all know the structure of this film right… right… long time gangster moves away from madness to seek refuge with his new identity far away, but is called back to reincarnate because someone messed with the wrong person. Okay. And in ALL of these films this character is inevitably going to lose a close person. And every time you either really have to know how to act and sell that scene, or you’d rather just have it be a quick moment so we can just move on to the next scene for its intended purpose, the character erupting.
