Thalapathy Vijay, one of the most popular actors in the Tamil film industry, is set to make his return to the screen with GOAT – Greatest Of All Time. The film’s trailer, released recently, has generated significant buzz among fans, but it has also faced criticism for its perceived lack of creativity and the de-aging effects applied to Vijay.
Despite the initial excitement, the promotional content for GOAT has been met with mixed reactions. The posters have been criticized for their lack of originality, and the songs have been deemed underwhelming. Additionally, the film’s runtime, at 2 hours 59 minutes and 39 seconds, has raised concerns about audience engagement in today’s era of shorter attention spans.
Venkat Prabhu, the director of GOAT, remains confident in the film’s success. However, his previous film, Custody, also faced challenges due to its lengthy runtime. The fate of GOAT will ultimately depend on its ability to captivate audiences and justify its extended duration.
As the release date for GOAT approaches, the film’s success will be closely watched by fans and critics alike. The question remains: Can Thalapathy Vijay’s star power and the film’s content overcome the initial challenges and deliver a box office hit?
