The movie was not so good. BGM and Songs in the movie was good. The Animation also good. But the actors in animation was not good. It has a good story but if the animation was not there the movie could be so good.
I will not even address the graphics element of this movie, as the film's creators themselves insist that this was the effect they were going for. If this was the best they could do, that's fine, but now what I am left with is the naked body of the film that was hiding behind the drapes of the motion capture technology: the script. This is a revenge movie with nothing new to add as far as a plot, especially in the Tamil industry. Man's family is wronged in some way, man goes undercover, man reveals himself and gets revenge on the villains. Then we have all the unnecessary plot elements that added nothing to the hero's characterization. He dances like a badass? Cool. He rides on a dolphin's nose? Cool (and literally impossible). He does yoga? Cool. But what does all this say about a character that we should be rooting for? After this entire pomp sequence, we are still left with a character (the title character, ironically enough) that is not shelled out enough and too hollow for the audience to feel any attachment to him and root for him. Then we have the whole issue of who the bad guy really is. In Rana's words, "country is more important than friendship", and we see in this nationalistic period, people are willing to go to any limit for their country. So how is Raja Mahendra not justified in poisoning in their enemy's soldiers but Rana is when he basically smuggles their main labor force out of their country? That's messed up, man. Also, Veera Mahendra seemed to be a genuinely good friend until he was betrayed, so his actions seem justified as well. So who is the real hero in all of this? It was of course Kochadaiiyaan, who performed the ultimate sacrifice of dying for the right thing. But oh wait, he was also the most poorly developed character in the movie! And then we have Princess Vadhana, who was literally only a pretty face for the dance sequences/ the subject of my nightmares. Similar things can be said for all the other supporting characters (even the nightmare part), as they did not do what they were meant to do: SUPPORT. Rana's sister had her own plot that provided nothing to the plot. Nagesh, I am so sorry. These characters were only around, it seems, for the movie to meet its run time requirements as the main plot was so insubstantial. I can guarantee that this movie would have been a failure were it not for the name Rajini attached to it. I am thankful for this movie for one reason only. It gives us a chance to step back and realize what a detrimental effect nepotism and politics has on the Tamil film industry. There are really moving and novel scripts out there and directors with a different point of view that no one wants to pay attention to because they are overshadowed be films and people like this. Let the pomp and mindless, almost religious following of Kochadaiiyaan be an example of something we should not strive for, and let us go back to making cinema, not hype.
tats nice to hear tat its the first 3D motion picture in Tamil. being the 1st film v cant expect a 100% clear output but they would have done justice by giving at least a 51% clear output with a minimum quality in animated models and story. reasons to watch Kochadaiyaan: *one and only superstar Rajinikanth I don't find any other reason to appreciate and admire Kochadaiyaan. * poor animation modeling of lead characters * weak story line and screenply * zero suspense factor * too much space for songs and punch dailogues * must mention about the animation modeling of female lead. they could have tried either a better animation modeling of the female lead or a better female lead. to sum it up not a worth watch film.
I hate his movies. N this one too. I don't know why people like his movies. His action films are comedy. His acting is as worst but still people like his movies. There are many nice actors in South compared to this actor. Actually his all movies are animated including this one. Go watch Hollywood. Or comedy. South films are good for nothing.They just have huge box office collection. I think fiction are nothing but south movies. Learn acting from Ranbir, Aamir, Irfan khan,Rajpal Yadav. Actors like Dhanush has acting sense learn something from him Rajni. Besides acting I know he is very nice man living simple lifestyle. Hope you will retire soon So that south movies would get a chance to level up their movies
