Plus Points:
· Karthi
· Dialogues
· Cinematography
Minus Points:
· Story
· Screenplay
· Narration
Performance: The main highlight of this film is Karthi’s character. It must be said that if the director presents it very differently, it will be more special than that, but Karthi has won the hearts with his unique performance. Although he has already appeared in different getups in Sardaar, it can be said that the character of Japan will be seen as a more special role in his career. Apart from that, Japanese manners generate good fun. Apart from that, actor Sunil has once again shined in an interesting role in a Kollywood movie. Along with him, Bhavani Patradardu and others acted well in the scope of their roles. Actress Anu Emmanuel adds little value to the film. Vijay Milton delivers a superb performance.
Technical: The production values are good. And when it comes to the technician team, GV Prakash’s music is good. His score songs are impressive. Ravi Varman’s cinematography is also good. Karthi’s costumes are impressive. The editing is ok. The dialogues are good.
Analysis: Apart from Karthi’s characterization, there are no impressive elements in Japan movie. And when it comes to the disappointing aspects of this film, what is not seen in the film is such a great narration. The director has designed a unique character, Japan, but it seems to be presented in a very limited way. The cinematography is decent. Japan lacks a compelling story and strong characters
Also, the first half is good but the second half of the movie is still dull. Along with these, there are not many impressive emotions or twists in the movie. There is no proper scope for Anu Emmanuel’s role as the heroine.
