Very few moments in life, a Rajinikanth matches the enthusiasm you have seen in the days before the film. In a career that has now reached a 50 -year milestone, a superstar is a brand that is large as cinema. So when a Rajni film is coming on screen, this expectation is rarely for how Rajinikanth has performed–the Eleios never required a torch to explode-but in Helm, the director has succeeded in getting less than a handful in recent years: A modern ‘superstar’ film is the most familiar. And now, in CoolieIn the game, the player is the modern Messiah of Tamil Mass Action Cinema, Lokesh Kanagaraja. This was a formula on which you could bet. Lokesh, a filmmaker who dare to take multi-starrs, is inconitning to return after Leo,
In addition to NAC to marry the month with realism, he is also known for inventor fan service – a 2020s Rajni film is required for the film – that’s why I had to travel to Rajinikanth’s 1981. Wall Remake, yourThe trailer of the Cool gave his cap with his hat under R Krishnamurti. Lokesh takes out of a leaf your And lifts it up to today’s Rajikanta’s star power; Many flashbacks sprayed during 170 minutes Coolie Show Rajinikanth as a young deity, a blue-collar worker at a port who stands for his fellow laborers. It struggles to sell Lokesh as a hero of the proletariat to revive Rajinikanth’s backstory or use screen time. Now the weight of the film falls perfectly on the story on this attractive background, and unfortunately, the cool ends with a bag of mixed results. It neither matches Lokesh’s standards nor will satisfy the Rajni fan with hunger for triviality.

Interestingly, it is easily the most conspiracy, which we have seen in a Rajinikanth film in a long time, which is not necessarily a good thing, or bad. Kali Kickstarts with a sample of iron fist, with brutal Dayalan (Saubin Shahir) operates a port for his boss, Simon (Nagarjuna Akini), a crime kingpin that is a crime kingpin that deal in luxury watchesA police intruders are hanged, and such sheep are also talked about in the herd. Meanwhile, we are introduced to the deity, who now owns a mansion. You can’t help, but stick to the superstar, which are now tired. A close-up shot on a mirror reflects her aging, and it suggests that our 74-year-old young superstars can no longer fight or dance as if he used to use what you thought! We get the hero introduction song, Chikutu, in which he sweeps a leg with his back on the floor! And yet, in Close-ups it is unnatural exhaustion, who is thankful here that it adds to the path of his character god, who quickly learns that his best friend Rajasekhar (Satyaraj; Interestingly is the name of Rajasekhar Rajni’s name your) There is a heart attack.
The deity, knowing that the king’s death was not natural, vowes to find out who killed his friend and why, who confuses him with the crew of Dhayalan, who was trading with the king. Who killed the king, and in which business was the smugglers seen with the king? Why is Rajasekhar’s daughter Preeti (Shruti Haasan) so angry at the deity? What did Rajasekhar do? Coolie These questions are still discovered randomly.
Coolie (Tamil)
Director: Lokesh Kanagarj
Mold: Rajinikanth, Nagarjuna Akini, Saubin Shahir, Upendra
Order: 170 minutes
Story: A mansion owner investigates his friend’s death, which puts him in the cross hair of a crime syndicate
The main issue with the first half is how these action rarely have a feeling of urgency or imminent danger, at least until the terrible predecessor sequence starting in a cemetery. This is also a large extent from the Rajni film at this phase of a Rajni film – of course, reminding it, such as in a female hostel in the scene of a batching battle. While the interval sequence ends on a high note, the second half also finds the deity and the preethy in some very dull stretches, the pretha is pushed like a piece on the board. An arc that starts with romance with his girlfriend (Rachita Ram) with Simon’s son Arjun (Kanna Ravi), seems interesting on paper, especially how it finally helps to tie the lumps, but it moves forward, and the final effect is not worth the effort.
For most of the second half, Nagarjuna’s character Simon participated in the background because it is a mold that draws weight. In fact, Soubin is easily to see the artist Coolie -In a speed-breaker like the item-Number ‘Monica’, Saubin forced your attention with his uniqueness. His dhayalan also ends as the best round character CoolieThanks to all the extremes take his arc. On the other hand, Nagarjuna, as a villain, looks quite confident, but is not enough to tap in your villain on paper. Apart from this, there is an effective Shruti, which whenever required, despite bringing A-Game, a character is found that decreases with the conspiracy.

A major drawback that we feel in connecting with some of these characters is that we rarely get good scenes that offer them to the deity, which is a problem for the story on their wide shoulders. This is why, after their introduction shots, the characters in the cameo do not appear real. It is also time that Lokesh understands that in the end the only cameo cannot work anymore – yes, it worked in Vikram, but as we see CoolieIt is not enough to predict a villain throughout the film and play an opposite image with an actor with an actor. The reasoning behind the equation (not Aamir Khan’s not of Aamir Khan) with Deva (not Aamir Khan) goes for the toss, and you are searching for the deity’s mansing flashback, which everyone is talking about.
In fact, someone feels compelled to say that perhaps most of his signature for Lokesh is the time to flourish – the 90s song is used here, and can Mokobot be kept to rest finally? For all publicity that a ‘A’ certificate Rajni got pre-relief, in violence Coolie There is no satisfactory type, nor is shot with cinematic taste, nor manages to jerk you – you will not expect that Lokesh will not expect a man or a man to repeat the shots, to make a jerk to a man or a man, to make a jerk, a man. Flakes of action sets also, second time in a Lokesh Kanagarj film, Feel Bland. The technician who glows the most is an ace composer Anirudh Ravichender, whose pulsed music keeps you across.
The paper had a cool, promised capacity on the paper. It is a grounded crime action drama with Rajni moments to continue it. But if Lokesh’s previous films – like Kathy, OwnerAnd Vikram -In say that this is that a strong emotional core is a real -acting component to create a truly shot action drama that feels real and current, and this core is the same that is missing. Coolie,
It is disappointing how so many underperforming star vehicles in Tamil lost on emotional quotient – Coolie But is following thug LifeWhich is reminiscent when you think many similarities between you your And NaikanFinally, after a frightening Rajni film (continuously after Vetaiyan), you are asking a relevant question-where is the Rajni-Lokesh film that was promised?
Kali is running in theaters
