Same old, same old!

How long will vijay continue this, its pathetic. he is milking it, the same old stereotypes. recently his movie puli was different but his acting was paralled.here in theri it had some scope to the story but did not work out for him.. Been a fan of vijay for a long time, I grew up but he did not. It's the same old dramatic face reveal of the actor and such identical acting, I am tired of it. To be honest the songs in this movie was bad and bgm I thought I heard a cheesy version of inception's half remembered dream somewhere. And what's with the dialogue in the movie some are cringy. I seriously have doubts if vijay can act. There are so many emotions involved but not well timed, there is a sad scene, 2 minutes later there is a joke, this happens throughout the movie. Once again vijay tries to make a commercial movie and fails again. He tries to please everyone from kids to old people out there but that's not how you do it, in fact puli had such potential but in Theri, vijay is touching important and sensitive subject i.e human trafficking like forced child labor and rape and also prominent problem in India, the thugs incorporate all this with songs and fight scene this movie is primordial soup. the climax scene I was baffled to see that vijay is moving faster than batfleck I don't know how he got to the next higher floor without graple gun, maybe he is flash? As expected he kills the villain, boom , happy ending. It's anticlimactic, there is past, there is present but no future i.e no epilogue. Like I said I am a big fan of vijay I would like to see him in biographical movies similar to A Beautiful Mind, Rush or J.Edgar but not like milkha Singh or Mary kom . nobody wants a rock album in biographical movies. Something epic movies like Mel Gibson movies would be great. I know it's a long shot but if he keeps making these theri sort of movies I might give up soon. Verdict:- stereotype acting is enough bro.
