Cinematography and production values
Negatives:
Poor second half
Restricted political drama
Limited appeal
Climax
Tamil flavored
Performances:
Vijay as usual looks stunning and his body language is a treat. He excelled in the songs and in the action episodes. Vijay is the major highlight of Sarkar. Keerthy Suresh looks decent and performed well though she has been restricted to songs. Varalaxmi Sarathkumar gets a challenging role and she has been a treat. Radha Ravi and Yogi Babu looked thoroughly impressive. All the other actors have been decent.
Sarkar lacks a strong point and it has been restricted with a lose political drama. The screenplay and dialogues have been penned considering Vijay and some of them worked out well. The music has been decent and couple of songs have been shot well. The action episodes are the other highlights of Sarkar. The production values have been grand and AR Murugadoss steps out with one more bland and poor script that fails to impress the audience.
Final Word:
Vijay steps out with one more disappointment and Sarkar falls flat because of the poor second half. A disappointing political drama.
Review: 2.5/5
