Movie Review: Annathai
Went in with a little over no expectations for this film. First Rajini movie to be released during the Pandemic.. And the movie didnt fail my expectations of not being a good movie at all. The story/plot is the first weakness of this movie. Its not anything new, fresh or even different. Take about a handful of old Rajini movies, Ajithkumar movies and Vijay movies, mash it together and you get Annaatthe. We start with present day, go into a flashback and go into a flashback of a flashback and then come back to the flashback and then the present day again. The movie is 2 hrs 55 mins but I felt like they could have easily cut off nearly 45 mins to 1 hour of scenes and the movie wouldn't have felt any different. In terms of cast, Rajini was the usual Rajini. Overacting at times and going beyond what fits his character at times. Personally only the action sequences of Rajini felt like they were done right. Keerthi Suresh has done her job perfectly. Nayanta...
