SPYDER MOVIE REVIEW

When the super talented Murugudoss gets to direct our Superstar MaheshBabu.. definitely it brings in lot of curiosity factor as what genre they would choose.. Even though the initial teasers were not that  great.. expectations slowly mounted up by the release time naturally 

Plot : It is a thriller genre where our hero hunts down the Psycho Killer  (SJ Surya).. 

Maheshbabu should be appreciated for sincerely trying out new genre in a different combination.. Speaking about his charm makes no special news as it is default in all his movies ..His costumes in song "Haali Haali " are funny by the way.. 

SJ Suryah is menacing as villian and has done fantastic job .. RakulPreetSingh has no importance and comes as spead breaker as she is given remuneration for songs.. Bharat has a limited role as compared to advertised.

Background score by Harris Jayaraj is excellent while songs are just ok as they dont fit in properly..

Theme and execution..
Firstly the movie has an excellent theme and message.. It has the Hero on one side who tries to help the people he does not know at all and gets satisfaction out of it.. on other side the Villian gets the sadistic pleasure listening to peoples tears and goes to any extent to hear the people suffer .. It is true that villian in the movie has 15% of sadistic behaviour and every human has 4%.. and we should work to minimize it ..It is that message conveyed in commercial way..

Director jumps into the plot pretty much from the start and it picks up speed when the first cruel murder happens .. Flashback of the villian is shown very raw.. The way the Hero approaches the villian is great and convincing.. Interval block is nice and I liked the sequence where the villian is shot post interval.. Overall First half is quite engaging and sets up great premise..

Involving TV soap watching women in a sequence is decent and fun .. But from that point movie becomes more ambitious than needed.. Audience are in no mood to forgive the slighest jerk in graphics after watching "Baahubali' on telugu screen..So the graphic work towards climax disappoints us for sure.. Hero trying to solve the big problem single handed and he could not stop the disasters to happen seems to go wrong !! 

A thriller movie should be as gripping like "Vettayadu veliyaadu (Raghavan)" if attempted as this movie has similar theme.. Overall SPYDER is convincing till two thirds.. It remains as good theme. SPYDER is true tamil debut for Mahesh thats being dubbed into Telugu..!!

Watch it for different genre and message and Mahesh..
