Unbearable even if you fast forwarded the movie and watched it. Zero plot. Gratuitous violence. Just visual after visual of naked, dead women. I fear for the makers who come up with plots like this. Pls get help.

Irrational at multiple levels especially in trying to counter the Male gaze, and defend child rights

Terrible. Misogynistic. Perhaps like he says, he himself is a victim of his time.

Hilarious, down to earth movie with excellent character arcs for each character except Sathiaraj. The plot is suspenseful and portrays several emotions, doing justice all the way It feels like a typical week spent in a humorous tamilian household. I didn't give it 5 star rating because of the patriarchal values it supports. Sathiarajs violence towards his daughter is not questioned. His "honour" slap needed to be analysed and questioned just as so many other aspects of patriarchy were analysed in the movie. He gets away with a meek sorry. Not done in the 21st century It doesn't justify and reflect social reality accurately. Imho today's reality of the Tamil woman is rather polarised imho. Either you're traditional and conservative, obeying all social rules and your parents, or you're modern, independent, progressive, feminist, and anti-violence, folowing your own rules (like the heroine does, in having platonic friendships etc) This movie tried to take the leap into the progressive feminist category but landed flat because of Sathiarajs ill-developed character It would've worked for a 1980s movie but not for todays generation

Male dominated, filled with violence, terrible omission /représentation of women, regressive movie. I'm extremely disheartened to see such a mindless masala movie from Kamal Hassan. Hoping and waiting to see something meaningful and profound during dark times such as these...

A good attempt to capture some of the systemic evils against women. Yet the male gaze prevails. See the name of the movie, for instance. What was the representation and voices of women in dialogues, script, direction etc? Also women are shown as powerful only when they embrace masculine symbols such as lifting weights, breaking a door, driving a car, etc. The only féminine symbol of Power is the listening circle Even in the listening circle, ranveers character turns the spotlight on himself and his need for a kiss, nullifying the essence of the circle and it's members What about the aspect of reproductive autonomy and the exploitation of mudras womb for lineage reasons? That aspect is not even touched And the endingblames the victim for the problem. All that the men need is a kiss from the women to stop patriarchy in its tracks. What about generations of domestic violence? Genocidal levels of abortions? It's like the fart blaming the nose when men blame women for the mess they are perpetrators of... So many many terrible gaps. I can't wait for the day movies engage feminists to analyse the script before getting into such massive ventures. So many many blindspots can be avoided and a more wholesome portrayal can be achieved

An illogical film which has no storyarc or character arc. It revolves around violence, toxic masculinity, objectification of women. Patchy plot with low IQ, egotistical, and narcissistic dialogues. Looking at the reviews i am scared to see the abysmal standards of viewers who would rate this film so highly. I don't even want to know about kgf 2.

What a disappointment in the way Tamil movies continue to represent women. The ladies here in the movie are objectified, trivialised, dehumanised. The male dominates, subjugates, gaslights, and wins both women at the end. Tragic and insensitive. Have the makers of the movie not heard of Cassandra phenomenon? Emotional deprivation? And the painful effects upon a human? When will Tamil films portray women as humans with real needs and rights and just as sexy bodies with a ton of guilt and responsibilties? Spoiler ahead Why is the man not aware, not made aware of his disorder of talkativeness? Why is that trivialised and presented humorously while turning a blind eye to the emotional deprivation of Mouna? What brings about the random transformation in him ? Is it not the job that mouna pays him 75k for? Is it not the idea of the job given by the lady counsellor? Is it not the listening, empathetic ear of the counsellor? How come none of these roles played by women are acknowledged? And he is portrayed as a self-unmade man? And his disorder is the elephant in the room. noone talks about it his seemingly narcissistic tendencies wreaking havoc on mouna Flip the script. What if the lady, mouna, had deprived the hero all thru, of emotional inputs? What if she only wanted to feed and be intimate at the drop of a hat without consent? And what if he had gone on to hire a guy to fall for her? Already absurd, right? Let me take it to the climax. Would u visualise dulquer salman then collapsing to his knees in the cafe, last scene, and begging to be taken back? No. The movie probably won't even be watched till the end. Wake up Tamil filmmakers. Read up on feminism, women's rights, women's portrayal in media. You don't have the excuse or right to be ignorant when the world surges forward. Let's be progressive. Be the change, guys.

Terrible movie. Doesn't make any sense. So many loopholes. U will not understand script. Were the writers on a high when they wrote the script? And it's so tiring. If u like action scenes, u will be satisfied around every 30mins. Spoiler James bond dies in the end. Bleuh. Why such a depressing end during such depressing times with covid and all... Hope they make a sequel and redeem themselves.
