9/10
A uniquely taken movie

First of all - this falls into the type of movies which Rajinikanth should've done more often but probably didn't do cause his fans might have expected otherwise. The characters of Rajinikanth and Mammootty were developed really strategically and Thalaivar's acting at times leaves you in amazement. The movie's theme is set along the lines of Karna's dilemma between his character and the friendship with Mammootty (who is essentially shown as Duryodhana's character) and the way how it sequentially gets expended, it was never "boring" to be honest.

A little bit of a drawback (subjective) is that it goes a little too violent which may not be pleasing to some people and at some scenes, the camera either literally stops or moves very slowly which makes you assume the movie is draggy. But that's left to the taste of the viewers and their preferences when it comes to these cinematographic elements.

Overall, a really unique experience, and a worthy movie to be watched.
