A great movie, one of the best of this year. There was a bit of confusion at one point in the plot, but nothing serious.

There are moments in this movie where the great movie it could've been peek out... They're fleeting, here, but they're worth savoring, and they happen often enough to make it worth your while.

This movie is just Kamal's Vishwaroopam.To sum it all in one word,you can't . There are just too many amazing things in this movie.First, I would like to say or everyone will say that the cinematography is mind- blowing.They took shots with stunning angles. I have no words to describe it. Coming to the scenery, the shots in New York were done well and the fighting scenes were very very good.The not-notable VFX in this movie absolutely amazing. The Afghanistan part was awesome as you can't see any flaws.The story is not simple to understand as watch closely to really understand the flow of the story.Remember this, small words matter or not you'll be asking yourself why did so many things happen. Anyway, this movie will definitely be remembered and praised for a long time to come . This is a very bold and brave attempt from an Indian director.Hats off to Kamal sir for taking Tamil cinema to the next level , which is the level that will touch a persons brilliance . Final verdict, This is a must watch and a 'Truly Masterclass' movie...

An usual story with the hero fighting against terrorism and terrorist (tat's all can be said rest watch it in theatres ).But guys this is something very very new to Indian cinema.Intelligent cinema, with a lot of brians involved.Once again it's proved that tamil industry is growing higher and higher on every step Actually we should stop saying that our films are being made to Hollywood standard, because we have started that almost 2-years ago. This film is something which even film-makers from Hollywood have to look out for. WoW what a man...S this is what comes to mind when we see kamal taking the film all under his arms. Sadest part is that he is not been recognised by his own people,the way others does.As they have already spoken a lot about the film,review is unnecessary but a quick tip. Do not spare even a second to think what's happening in the film, everything will be clarified as the film progresses to the climax. Or else you would end up saying "Padam onnumey puriyaladaa" as we normally do once we fail to understand such masterpiece.Just to sum it up: *Great product from India's truly one of the best Director. *Brilliant and Brainy film-making. Masterpiece, where we need to be prepared from our end to understand it as it has a lot of universal information (infact truth) *After a long long time a movie that has all reasons to be watched in theatres for a least 3 times.Great effort that has all key elements to be a successful venture

VIshwaroopam is one the best movies of 2013 and of all time. The plot of this movie is very interesting with twists and turns and a lot of flashbacks. Without a sequel, this movie wouldn't have had the critical acclaim it has received so far. The acting of the lead roles were pretty impressive. the music was pretty good but not up to expectations.The only reason,in my opinion, this movie was successful is the intensity of the plot and the successful effect of "thrill". WIthout these very important elements, this movie would have been another on of those cheesy movies that were flops i.e. Sura. There still were very minor flaws in the otherwise perfect movie. First, the flashbacks got a little bit confusing towards the end of the story. Second, if movie was a little bit shorter, it might have made a bigger impact. Finally, the actors could have stepped up their performance a tiny bit more.

after so much hype.. i decided to watch this movie.. i am not a fan of kamal hasan nor i hate him.. but this movie didn't help me change my views on him. movie is sooo boring.. acting is below average from all the actors.. and dialogues of his wife is damn irritating.. at one point you really wants someone to shut her up.. and i didn't understand the starting of the movie.. what she was doing in therapist office.. and where did that conversation go.. i really wanted the movie to end.. here its having 9.4 ratings.. c'mon you guys can't be serious.. please don't go for this movie even if you are action lover or have any sort of taste.. and i wonder why its 2nd part is in making.. God bless us.
