Story
STAR movie revolves around the story of a lower-middle-class young boy who dreams of becoming a star. The struggles he faces while achieving his dream are the main crux.
Review
STAR is an engaging entertainer with a well-written screenplay and an outstanding performance by Kavin. The first half of the movie combines with the song and various fun moments where Kavin has easily pulled the college and school boy characters.
Kavin unveiled his full potential in this film and single-handedly lifted the story, which made him the next promising performer in Tamil Cinema. Lal portions connected well. Actress Geetha Kailasam‘s performance in the film is really appreciated. If we are able to relate to the middle-class family’s hardships in the film, it’s because of the two actors Kavin and Geetha Kailasam. Though Elan‘s film is about dad and son’s collective dream, Geetha’s characterization and performance stand out! Excellent performance.
The second half, with a few surprises and an excellent climax, gives you a seat-edge experience. It is a completely different genre for director Elan after Pyaar Prema Kaadhal. With the heart-warming storyline, this movie gives you real-time experience and feelings. Yuvan Shankar Raja nailed it with his wonderful background score and songs. His extraordinary music lifted some of the emotional sequences.
Overall, it is a very inspiring drama with impressive visuals, intense performances, and stunning music. It will definitely be one of the best movies in Kavin’s acting career.
RATING: 4/5
