Veeram Tamil Movie Review

REVIEW : Follow The Cinema Company

 Veeram directed by Siva is a typical Tamil mass masala movie we have seen many times and on numerous occasions with different heroes as the protagonist with larger than life image. A family drama with doses of action, comedy and romance, the movie is an average one time watch that is definitely going to satisfy the followers of Ajith. Director for a change has given new looks to the actor in terms of getup. From an urban look, our hero has transformed into a village hero with white shirt and dhoti. Of course, he has retained his bald hair and beard that has become his signature style of late.

What makes the film watchable is the screen presence of Ajith in an otherwise outdated and predictable film that has nothing new to offer. Being a festive season, the film will go well with the masses looking for such a genre of film.

The story revolves around Vinayakam and his four brothers. The brothers have their love interests but they can't share this with their big brother who is totally against the institution of marriage. So the four of them hatch a plan to get their big brother himself into an affair. And for the hero to show his macho image, there are villains too.

Siva has narrated the plot in a traditional way without trying anything new and in the process what the viewers get is a repeated feel of similar films from the past.

On screen, it is an Ajith show all the way. With a new look and his familiar acting style he makes us sit through. The four brothers are just ok while Santhanam handle the humour side quite well. Tamaannah looked comfortable as the lady love of the hero while Nassar, Pradeep Rawat and Atul Kulkarni played the supporting part in the film.

Songs were reasonably good and with the visuals, they were good to watch. One area that deserve a special mention here is action choreography that have been done quite remarkably.

Overall, Veeram is an average fare good for a one time watch for the masses and if you are an Ajith fan you would definitely love him in his new getup. My rating is 2.5 / 5
