Valimai Review: Story Analysis
Story: Arjun (Ajith) is a genuine police officer with morals. He does not consider chain robberies to be minor offenses. The head of police in Vizag has been looking for someone like this for a long time.
Detectives requested Arjun to lead the expedition after he developed his belief that a string of chain robberies and bike gang activities were tied to a narcotics conspiracy.
He soon tracked down the gang’s main figure (Kartikeya). However, the gang’s leaders have constructed a more difficult-to-crack network.
How will Arjun save the town and his family from this situation?
Valimai Review
Cast Performances: Ajith Kumar portrays a cop in this film, and he does so with style and swagger. In the film, he only does two things: action stunts and sentimentality. He doesn’t have any romantic partners.
Huma Qureshi plays his coworker. The villain is played by our Telugu star Kartikeya Gummakonda. He has the stature to play the villain, but he doesn’t have many chances to show off his acting abilities. His job does not have a clear chart.
Technical Excellence: The action stunts are the main attraction. The film includes both action and technical aspects.
With the aid of photographers, action choreographers, and editors, many bike chases and a long-distance bus pursuit were captured flawlessly. Music, on the other hand, is not on the same level. Neither the song nor the background music is appropriate.
Analysis: The plot of “Valimai” is straightforward: a police officer pursues a group of outlaw biker gangs after they are implicated in a string of criminal occurrences.
However, it is presented completely differently in the beginning. Ajith arrives on the scene only fifteen minutes into the film.
Prior to that, the director reveals how a masked biker gang is supplying drugs and killing people, and supplying drugs by using sophisticated methods such as cracking QR codes from a painting on the wall, buying bikes on a portal, and dumping them in a quarry after the criminal activity is completed, all while using dark web technology. This entire 15-minute stretch is engagingly recounted.
Though the family sequences starring Ajith Kumar and the obligatory introductory song slow the pace at first, it quickly returns to its interesting structure.
It’s fascinating to watch Ajith use the reverse strategy to track down the criminal Kartikeya. Another highlight is the pre-interval bike chase. Despite the predictable plot, the first half of the film is largely compelling.
However, after Ajith Kumar captures the villain, the situation spirals out of control. Because there isn’t much of a story to drive the film from here on out, the director changes his focus to familial sentiments.
To add a commercial touch, he could have worked on the romance thread, but the filmmaker bypassed it and dragged on the mother-brother sentiment instead. The closing scenes are manufactured and bore us to death.
The sentiment element has weakened the basic action drama, turning it into yet another ‘Tamil sentiment masala’. Furthermore, the logic goes for a toss in several areas. In the police headquarters, there is a command control that can find any answer by clicking on keyboards.
The officers convene in a glass cubicle that looks more like a Hollywood set than a real police commissioner. The producers attempted to showcase the action drama in a glitzy fashion, but the scenario is implausible.
What are traffic cops doing if bike gangs are behaving this way on city streets? A traffic constable in any Indian metropolis would stop if even one motorcyclist went at 100 KM per hour while making such a racket. In the picture, however, biker gangs frequently move on roadways together, as if they own the roads.
Ajith is well-versed in the city’s criminal operations, but he is unaware that one of his family members has chosen the wrong road.
Kartikeya’s villain is extremely pitiful. We sometimes wonder why Ajith is making such a big deal out of this insignificant adversary. Their cat and mouse game is also uninteresting. Their face-off sequence has produced little value.
With a nearly three-hour running duration and never-ending antics, “Valimai” eventually tries the viewer’s patience. Overall, despite its style and sass, as well as a couple of high-octane action scenes, “Valimai” fails to engage us, making it a tedious watch.
