GOAT Movie Review

The film's director Venkat Prabhu has tried to present a thriller based on the background of an intelligence agency and he has succeeded to some extent in it. The film's strong story keeps you hooked from the beginning. The film's interval brings the story to a great turn. The story becomes even more exciting in the second half.

The climax of 'The Greatest of All Time' is also good. Here the story takes an even more interesting turn. However, this three-hour long film becomes boring at some places. Especially the music of the film is not effective at all. While many flaws are also seen in the dubbing of the Hindi version.

If we talk about the acting of the stars, Thalapathy Vijay is in his usual style. In the double role, he entertains the fans in his trademark style. His swag on the screen is going to make the fans crazy. He is also looking great in the action scenes. The rest of the actors have also played their roles very well.

Why watch- If you are a fan of Thalapathy Vijay and are fond of action then you can book tickets for this film.
