Alexpandiyan Movie Review


Starring : Karthi, Anushka Shetty, Santhanam, Nikhita, Thukral Sanusha, Prathap Pothen
Direction : Suraaj
Music : Devi Sri Prasad
Production : K E Gnanavelraja
Karthi is one actor who didn’t had any failure till Saguni. But looks like the actor is fond of mass action entertainers and this time he is back with “Alex Pandian” which is directed by Suraaj. Does Alex Pandian lives up to the expectation?
The plot is nothing new, a bunch of villains chasing the heroine and our hero saves her single handedly. Karthi plays a rogue who kidnaps CM’s daughter Anushka. During the kidnapping episode, Anushka falls in love with Karthi and the rest of the so called story tells us how Karthi saves Anushka and most importantly the entire state from villains who are threatening the CM (Visu) to sign in a deal for supplying prohibited antibiotics to the people.
Karthi looks charming and the star has a lot of energy but all his energy goes with the lagging screenplay and the story which doesn’thave any logic. Anushka looks so matured and disinterested in many sequences. The only saving grace of the movie is Santhanam and his funny episodes in the first half is really engaging. But the double meaning dialogues and the high glamour quotient in the name of Santhanam’s sisters doesn’t entertain family audience.
Suraaj has adopted the same Padikathavan formula yet again. He had already proved that he is good in comic sequences but why is he continuously adopting stories which is not having any logic?. The stunt choreography in the movie is one of the worst in recent times and it seems they have totally forgot Newton’s gravitational law!!.
Devi Sri Prasad’s song and background score is too loud andSaravanan’s cinematography is stylish and editing is okay. On the whole, Alex Pandian might satisfy the audience who loves mindless action masalas.
