Definitely worth watching one time for sure in the movie theater even though I will watch around 10 times or so in total, being a Rajni fan hardcore.
First half is very good especially the end block toward the interval and starting block post intermission and of-course the thalaivar intro scene for sure.
Post interval movie is good but not strong/solid as character focus can be done better and surely the climax should have been different or better but nevertheless movie is a sure watch at theater for entertainment with some good message as well. Better than Thalaivars past 4 movies.
One thing u realize is that the villain played by Raghuvaran back then in the 1990s is irreplaceable and a very good combo for Rajni which is being missed someway or the other, call it the Raghuvaran screen presence, touch and the image he brings in with his height, looks and dialogue delivery.
Watched the movie on THU 10/10/2024 @ AMC Eden Prairie Mall 18 - theater 13 in the USA.
