Before the movie ‘Action’, a Sundar C Tragical, starts Vijay Sethupathy comes and says that the movie is taken globally and for benefit of audience it’s shown as if everyone is talking in tamil. Instead if he had said this is not action but distraction we would have been warned.
Take two ounces of Rajiv assassination, 1 ml of Bombay blast plus 2 tsp of Dawood plus few scenes of Spider-Man plus MMKR. And a tablet of Domstal to avoid the vomit. You get Action.
Action is the time tested formula of Arjun movies.

Vishal an upright army officer hides below his chair when they try to give him Kirti Chakra. This is because his girlfriend has refused to kiss him. Only when she gives him a kiss he goes to receive the award. 🤦♂️
A special mention needs to made about the BgM for this movie. I think the MD was so frustrated that he just played whatever he want. Like for instance do you expect suspenseful music for a scene where someone says I want to open a bank account?
The assassin is a woman and she hides her IP. They find that 5 different locations are shown as last seen. But intelligent vIshal find the right location by zooming into CCTV and her watch. Her watch shows London time zone and he discovers she is now in London 😮
Yogi Babu is a hacker and says ‘Oru hacker a joker aa aakiteengale da’. But the truth is ‘Oru jokera hackera aakitaanga’. And he has a finger print scanner on his calling bell it seems 😭
As I said earlier lots of scenes are copied. The assassin kills a key member by using Indian Kamal technique. And Vishal enters the villain house by using MMKR fireman Raju technique.
There is no logic as such. I think the director wanted to visit Turkey and London and Caribbean islands and just wrote a random line linking these places.
But Vishal is a superman. He beats the police commissioner of instanbul in turkey bus stand and treats head of pakistan military like Santhana bharathi is treated by Michael in MMKR. Just that the army chief shouts Maliku instead of michaelu
Once in Turkey Vishal suddenly decides to go to Pakistan. And he starts by two wheeler and then jeep and then bus. In middle of this infiltration Tamannaah dreams about him dancing in puppy shame costumes.
There is a famous SV Sekar joke where a smuggler asks his assistant ‘Dei sarakka indha kaila irundhu andha kaiku maathina enna aagum? Sarakku namma kailaye irukkum boss’. Just like that there are so many twists and the story just doesn’t move anywhere.
Finally I guess the director got bored and ends the movie abruptly with a Nepal twist. Thank god. Please please don’t watch this movie. Activities like applying oil to your creaking doors, dusting the sofa, rearranging vessels in kitchen are more entertaining than this movie 🙏🏼
Some more things. Vishal is not a great action hero. Has only few actions. Imagine lifting your right hand to latch the door. And then bring your hand to centre and lock it. And turn 180 degrees. Do this swiftly without a door and that’s how he fights
And when you are in a buffet counter you suddenly realise you have forgotten to take the tissue paper or spoon when you cross it. You will stretch your hand to take it suddenly. And the person behind you will take defensive action. That offends okus defense another vishal special
