Jilla Movie Review without spoilers

Jilla Movie Outline: (Without spoilers)

Mohanlal (Sivan) is don in Madurai. He brings up his driver's son Vijay (Sakthi) as his own son.
The movie is a action movie which deals with the relationship between Shiva and Sakthi.
Soori and Kajal are other actors who play a significant role in the movie.

Movie Review:

The Good:

1. Theme of the movie (Sivan and Sakthi as per Hindu Mythology).
2. Mohanlal's acting - even though it is a given.
3. Soori comedy and few comedy scenes with Vijay and Kajal.

The Bad:

1. In Many scenes involving Mohanlal and Vijay, Mohanlal's excellent natural acting is seen in contrast with Vijay's strange (seen in this movie only) and inconsistent voice modulation.

The Ugly:

1. The scene leading to the interval break. Vijay's acting (in contrast with Mohanlal's acting) in this serious scene is just comical. We were laughing when the interval sign came up. :-)

2. Length of second Half. 'Padam eppa da mudiyumnu' ellaraiyum feel panna vechutaanga!! :-(.


The Verdict:

1. Watch it in Theatre only if you are a Vijay fan.
2. Mohanlal kooda ini Vijay nadika koodathu. Neraiya scenela contrast thaanga mudiyala!!

Do you agree with my Jilla review?
