SYNOPSIS:
A super cop strives to find the mastermind behind a string of thefts and murders, but the investigation becomes personal when his family becomes pawns in the criminal’s game.
REVIEW:
- In Valimai, a slightly engaging but overlong action film that covers its poor writing with extravagant action set-pieces, stunts, and sentiment collide.
- Vinoth appears to be struggling to strike a balance between crafting a gritty action film and meeting the needs of a star vehicle.
- Valimai is an action thriller that works effectively in the first half, sticking to the director’s strengths. Because the plot in the second half is uninteresting, the weaknesses are underlined. If you appreciate action movies, Valimai is a solid choice for the first half.
- Despite its three-hour running time, the film is extremely engrossing and amusing.
- The picture promises action, and it more than delivers on that promise. And he’s back with a vengeance to transform the theatres into a ‘thiruvizha.’
