Apr 19, 2019 A formulaic Rajini movie with lots of cliches, underused actors, irrelevant subplots and a post-flashback drag which is exhausting. See more

Feb 15, 2019 Best Rajinikanth movie In recent times..

Poe R Feb 8, 2019 PETTA REVIEW: Indian kids born in the 2000 era definitely grew up watching a handful of powerful Salman, Sharukh, Aamir, Vijay & Ajith movies which led them to fancy one of the "mentioned names" big time. And these kids couldn't have missed the name SUPERSTAR-RAJINIKANTH either, which led a good percentage of them seeing RAJINI as a respected seasoned king who's prowess are left sealed in a bag called 1990's. Yeah, THALAIVAR did some fine films which raked in the racks-$ in 2005, 2007, 2010 & 2018 but did every piece of his (50 calibur slug) strike right through everyone's heart & head? Answer, just close enough. That's when the dirty politics in Indian Cinema started tittle-tattling:- "Rajini might fall & his time is no more!" As these hypocrites were about to start their perfidy-party, the greatest Indian actor-entertainer "SUPERSTAR-RAJINI" comes storming in their jamboree, hollering:- NAAN VILTHETEN'NE NINAITHAIYO? hahahaha, PETTAPARAAK! Well, a huge huge thanks to the genius Karthik Subbaraj for showcasing the 90's (RAJINI x 2) in Petta. This man RAJINI proved why he's the greatest there was, there is & there will be in Indian Cinema. Without a single doubt, Petta will ignite a whole new level of love, respect & adore for SUPERSTAR among today's millennial kids. Every kid & adult will be 100% RAJINIFIED when the end credit starts rolling! Well, it's not easy for any actor at the age of 69 to go toe to toe with younger, stronger powerhouse performers & shine, but RAJINI didn't just shine, he flaired-up like the sun in every single frame only to reign untouchable. Mark this point, THALAIVAR's fiery action sequences + (A+) climax performance where he ensnares Jithu as his son & later puts him to rest with a kutti kathai, will be talked about for another 3 generation least! Also i must say, (Vijay Setupathi - fantabulous Hindi intonation) & (Nawazuddin Siddiqui - little off on the lip sync part, technical side weakness. Not a big deal) were both memorably fiendish to the core & they were at their best. Rest of the cast, Sasikumar, Bobby Simha, Simran, Trisha, Mahendran, Guru Somasundram & Chinni Jayanth, all had appropriate portions in this dark & exuberant revenge operation plot. Now with the list of extra performers placed to perfection accordingly, all you need is a cohesive plot stretched with a fantastic screenplay, picturesque cinematography & some cool ephoric BGM+songs. Result, an epic film! And that's exactly what Karthik Subbaraj, with the aid of Thirunavukarasu & Anirudh churned out. This revenge oriented action drama had one of the finest screenplay, cinematography & BGM for a 2hrs 52mins film which got us all RAJINIFIED! 8.5/10 See more
