#PuliReview:- What is a Fantasy ?,of course all of us would have had one.But the point here is if we get to choose between the fantasy and the same happening in reality,which one would we prefer..?Our director has tried very hard to answer this question but is letdown by a weak screenplay and very old story.But hey,what more can you expect from a fantasy story,Kingdom check,evil someone inside the kingdom check,good everyone outside the kingdom check And a savior along with regular fantasy elements.The costumes and locations were acceptable,but none of the animals wore any dresses,is that bad or what? Even though the initial scenes were a bit slow(c'mon guys,give our man sometime to improvise),the story picks up after hero and his sidekicks start on the journey to villain's bad ass land.We get a few jumbled clues and the interval scene is just good.But the puli fight was a bit over the top(for the Puli and the audience).But look at it like this,Maybe it was the one scene given to Hansika to display her maximum potential(in acting indeed).Be blessed guys,the movie's name is Puli and hence the fight with it,what would have happened if the movie was named நீர்யானை or காண்டாமிருகம்.Post interval the movie is good vs evil clash.We have a magic potion that helps our hero the get the power of villains for a few mins,which doesn't justify people jumping here and there.Next time these guys need to have wings which will help them to fly(as though the VFX team has very less work).We have a nice little twist towards the end(little as in the importance of sports in my school).Kudos to the VFX team and the director for assembling the star-studded cast,but the dialogues with political innuendos in the second half could have been avoided(we like to hear them only once in 5 years,not always).Congrats to Vijay for choosing the script(read genre) even after seeing how much we supported Aayirathil oruvan and Irandam ulagam.Overall it is a good movie which can be watched once with family.children will surely love it.It is not wrong to become children once in a while,is it..?
