Lack of good storyline.
... View MoreAt first rather annoying in its heavy emphasis on reenactments, this movie ultimately proves fascinating, simply because the complicated, highly dramatic tale it tells still almost defies belief.
... View MoreThe movie turns out to be a little better than the average. Starting from a romantic formula often seen in the cinema, it ends in the most predictable (and somewhat bland) way.
... View MoreClose shines in drama with strong language, adult themes.
... View MoreThe movie was superb. Suriya acted very good in the movie. Songs and BGM in the movie were also superb. But the comedy in the movie was not good. The fight scenes in the movie was awesome.
... View MoreSingam 3 The film is surely the first trilogy in tamil film industry. And making a trilogy series successful is something that only a director like Hari can do. Its the same old background story with a cop investigating a series of events and finds the culprit. But what makes the movie interesting is the screenplay. The movie goes in 4g speed. First let me clarify this. Many people have said the bgm and songs suck. Let me tell you the songs are way better than DSP's songs for the same series. And the bgm were actually good. But the only point is the bgm has been made loud to suit the scenes. Hari has indeed wanted that from harris but actually the bgm was good and suitable to those scenes. SURYA has done a neat job of portraying the role with the same characteristics. Anushka and Shruthi have just played the same role of how commercial heroines do in usual movies. It's only Hari and Surya who rock throughout the movie. Their combo definitely strikes the chord again. Watch it with your family and you will surely enjoy. Don't expect something new from it. It's the same old masala commercial film which will not make you upset when you leave the theatre
... View MoreThe Singam sequels are superficial cop stories. To enjoy it, you will have to distance yourself from reality. The treatment could be loud and not practically possible, but you get 100% action packed fun. This edition of Singam is no different when it comes to entertainment.When you are going to bring back a powerful character like Durai Singam, you definitely need a strong and never-heard-before story. It has an interesting core story and Hari has done full justice to the script with an engaging screenplay.Soori's comedy doesn't work what so ever. In most Hari films the comedy slows the tempo of the film. Though Hari has understood that and reduced the number of comedy scenes, none of the few that were shown in this film attracts you and sometimes even annoys you. The editor does have a major work to do as he has so many scenes to maneuver around than a normal commercial film. Though you laud him for giving us a crisp product, we also need to point out the fact that the final product is not smooth and few scenes get over even before it starts.
... View MoreSingam 2 released in 2013 failed to match the thrills and adrenaline rush that the prequel offered with its mediocre storyline that had nothing new to boast of except for a couple of well-choreographed action sequences and a highly energetic performance by Suriya.Singam 3 too is no exception and follows the same formula of the second part with typical Hari style entertainment that has glorious loopholes spread through the narration.Hari's way of storytelling has always followed the same pattern- An unbeatable hero mouthing lengthy punch dialogs,half a dozen over-the-top action sequences,an item dance,a second heroine just for the sake of glamour quotient and a separate comedy track that most probably wont have any connection whatsoever with the major plot of the movie.This formula has proved more or less successful for the director,but for how long can he stick with this predictable style that's losing its grip on movie going audience as days pass by! The brisk pace of the narration,fiery punch dialogs and Suriya's powerful cop act do act as saving graces here,but the repetitiveness of the storyline may hurt a smooth cinematic experience for even the fans of typical mass masala entertainers from Kollywood.Undoubtedly the second half of the movie was slightly better on comparison with the first and the cat and mouse chase between Duraisingam and antagonist Vittal was presented well even though letdown big time by a mediocre climax that defies logic of all sorts.The comedy track was utterly disappointing and failed to evoke a single laugh with its over the top crude humor.Suriya was at his energetic best and the athletic actor gave a powerful act with impressive dialogue delivery and mammoth screen presence during action sequences.Anushka had very less screen time offered and failed to pull out a notable performance.Thakoor Anoop Singh played the role of baddie convincingly even though his dialogue delivery lacked the much needed fieriness in it.Shruti Hassan was totally annoying right from the word go.Soori and his comedy track was horrible.Among others Radhika Sharatkumar and Sharat Saxena gave neat performances.The VFX part was tacky and there were a good number of notable glitches particularly in the second half.Editing by V.T.Vijayan and T.S.Jay was mediocre.Abundance of drone sequences and shaky frames by Priyan made it difficult to focus on the screen after a point.Harris Jayraj's songs were strictly average,but picturized well by Hari.The Background score was too loud and irritating to say the least.Overall,Singam 3 is a highly predictable Hari style mass entertainer that fails to pack required punch to call it a thoroughly enjoyable fare.
