In Bigil, Vijay has taken painstaking efforts in all departments of acting in addition to his signature dance and stunt sequences.ĭespite all the criticisms about lack of originality in story, Atlee proves yet again that his screenplay and intelligent scene constructions and sharp dialogues can keep the audience glued. It may seem like Vijay sleepwalks casually through his roles sometimes.
During the process, Vijay elevates himself higher without even resorting to any pompous dialogues or gravity-defying stunts. During the second half, Vijay takes the back-seat to shine the spotlight on all the soccer girls. He looks young, dashing, energetic and charismatic. Vijay as Rayappan looks rugged with interesting voice modulation and slight stammer. Vijay continues to mature as an actor as displayed in Rayappan’s role as an aging don.
Vijay has delivered his career-best performance. Atlee delivers a mass and class package laced with message. Will the second most expensive movie in Tamil deliver on the promise? Will Vijay and Atlee deliver a hat -trick? Can Bigil sustain audience's interest with a running time of 3 hours? All the doubts have been shattered to pieces.
