After hearing all the negativity, I thought the movie would be terrible. However, after watching it, I found it to be okay. The camera work, 3D visuals, and CGI are top-notch. Suriya's acting is excellent. The first 30 minutes of the movie are a total waste, but beyond that, there are many beautiful scenes and shots. The lead-up to Part 2 could have been handled better. Director Siva needs to improve the screenplay. While a lot of hard work went into this movie, Siva's screenplay is its biggest drawback, making the movie worse than it could have been. However, it is not as bad as the negativity on social media suggests. The movie is definitely watchable and is a complete theatrical experience.
