Reviewer: George Sylex

Bigil is Atlee's fourth movie in his director's calling. It is moreover his third consistent one with Illayathalapathy Vijay. Now, it is clear what the director does with the star. It is connected to presenting him in a fresh record. He does that by displaying the backdrop of a game. The story of Bigil is clear – it is a masala version of praiseworthy Bollywood blockbuster Chak De India with a substitute foundation. As opposed to a ruined player who is on a journey of recovery by being a mentor, here you have Michael also called Bigil (Vijay) who is doing the same yet fulfilling the fantasy of his father. How Michael readies a women football team to splendor crushing all odds is what the entire film is about?

Among the three getups of Vijay the senior variant Royappan stands separated adequately. It would be a delight for the mass observers and fans. Not that the other two acts need mass interest, anyway this is on a level higher. Coming to rest, it is an ordinary Vijay star act. There are eccentricities in abundance that are used feasibly by Atlee. The presentation, smart looks, and idiosyncrasies are inside and out managed in a fantastic manner.

There are the mandatory 'eager' scenes also united into the story to show the shocking side of Vijay. It is to highlight his range and significance of execution. One of those in the resulting half has turned out really well. You understand you have seen everything beforehand, except there is an attracting story – that is the achievement of Atlee. He gets the basics of dealing with a star right and outfits him with enough eat in the story to keep everyone happy.

The essential half is a perfect instance of how to manage a star-driven vehicle that is totally obvious and still watchable. The action, the incitement and overpowering visuals, they all work in a condition of congruity and prop the stream up without troubling the group too much. There are minor changes in the buzzword formula that makes it engaging. But, an entire film can't continue running on those lines, and that is the spot Atlee shows his worth. He gains the high measurements of performance and focuses story into the record in the ensuing half.

The games stuff, for example, is mixed in with sensation incorporating diverse little youngsters with different views. It feels interminable and a great deal without a moment's delay. At the same time, the genuine games stuff is unnecessarily gimmicky, anyway, everything never veers into the painful area. They are commonly unremarkable, anyway it is amazingly tiring to watch, and that is the issue with Bigil. It is long and overdrawn and expanded an incredible arrangement in transit.

Nayanthara plays a fearless lady fittingly named Angel. There is nothing to cry beside that she has a little part in the general arrangement of things that are totally overpowered by Vijay. Among the rest, Kathir and Yogi Babu have not all those awful parts. The last makes them delight minutes, and that is about it. Jackie Shroff is wasted obviously. AR Rahman has given a reasonable soundtrack. The tunes are not a blockbuster like Mersal. Obviously, he makes up with the BGM. It is splendid and keeps power alive. The cinematography is amazing. The film surely needs some cutting. Three hours resembles completing a Herculean assignment. When the subsequent half does through a women-driven plot, I feel Vijay consistently meddle in between their dialogues and assumes the entire praise.

Indeed, you have the Bollywood film Chak De India. Even something else, numerous sports flicks pursue a similar equation. Bigil itself is an elective interpretation of those movies. Overall, Bigil is an extensive and unsurprising mass stacked sports dramatization. It is a respectable one-time watch that leaves us with a depleted inclination toward the end.
