Reviews
The movie was good. Suriya and Vidyut acted very good in the movie. Songs and BGM in the movie was very good. But they presented it with no logic in some scenes.
ANJAAN MOVIE is commercial entertainment movie Director Linguswamy deals with a simple story revolving around a revenge film with some mass type one ( love, friendship and revenge).Suriya looks smart and stylish performance too. But fail to impress. Surya should Could have been selected better story.Samantha adds only glamor part of the movie.Vidyut Jammwal is one of important pivotal role of the movie , but suriya & vidyut bonding friendship is fail to click.Soori and Brahmanandam adds for comedy too, but not good- Huhhh.Too many villains in the movie....Yuvan Songs are very bad...Santhosh sivan Camera adds best in the movie..Dialogue are good but repeated often.Pros: surya / Santhosh sivan Camera Cons: Story / Music / Lengthy Screen playVerdict : Only for surya fans.Bhai bhai Raju Bhai... bore bhai..
Even before release Linguswamy claimed it to be part Bashaa (1955) and part Nayagan (1987) both which are undoubtedly classics in Tamil cinema but it turned out to be a movie with loosely connected characters and sequences. There is little or no entertainment after the plot is revealed at the interval to keep the audience glued to their seats. You need not be a frequent movie goer to easily guess what would happen next.Positives - Surya-Linguswamy combo, Yuvan Shankar Raja's songs and music, Santhosh Sivan Cinematography.Negatives - Story, Screenplay, Comedy Sequences (Little or no comedy), supporting casts of dubbing (Vidyut Jamwal and others), duration of the movie (over 3hrs).Verdict - Suriya in his many promotional interviews said he rejected three other scripts and choose Anjaan. But I doubt whether Anjaan is the best one he could pick. If you are looking for sensible and entertaining cinema I would recommend giving it a miss.
Anjaan is an usual gangster movie. It never live up to the expectations. First half of the movie give us goosebumps but the second half failed to impress the audience.Positives > Stylish avatar of Suriya - He was just awesome as Raju bhai. > Cinematography - Santhosh Sivan done a great work. His visuals was great. > Interval twist - How can I say it now?? Go and watch out.Nuetrals > Music - Yuvans music was just OK > Samantha - He done her part wellNegatives > Story - I just have one doubt... Why does all the DON falling in a relationship with Police Commissioners daughter?? Story was just ordinary and there is nothing new to offer. > Dubbing - Who the hell dubbed for Vidyut. It was irritating. Twist - Except the interval twist all others was predictable.Verdict - Strictly for Suriya fans
