THERI MOVIE REACTION!! | Thalapathy Vijay | Atlee

THERI MOVIE REACTION!! | Thalapathy Vijay | Atlee

Comments

Honestly fair enough, i just watched this movie for the first time in this watch along and felt it was messy. On the contrary though i watched another Vijay-Atlee film Bigil when it came out (my first Vijay movie) and thought it was really fun, still “mass” but actually entertaining. I recommend you guys watch that also, for some Atlee redemption :)

Not sure if I already really get what is this mass fllm style😄 But it's a lot about the presentation of a star, the entry, slow-mo, elevation scenes and other staff fans are crazy about. So far not particularly working for me🤷‍♀️

Aleksandra

Watch asuran movie

Rustin Cohle

😅😂😂🤣🤣🐿️🐿️🐿️💨💨💨🤡🤡👴👴👴🤢🤢🤮🤮🤮💩💩💩

Dheena Arjun

It's really unfortunate you didn't like the movie, as I'm one of those who enjoyed this movie, but it's totally fine and I hope it doesn't change your opinion on Thalapathy Vijay. You should still be excited for Leo (In Lokesh we trust!) 🦁🔥 To be completely honest after this watch along, I'm not too sure if your going to like any of Thalapathy Vijay's previous movies before Master. I hope I'm wrong 🙏🏽

Josiah Mahendran

Watched this just now. It definitely felt very awkward watching this one as the reactions (especially Rick) spoke a million words 😂 I'd recommend skipping Atlee's other works and just wait for Jawan and go into it with the level of skepticism that you have built up just now after watching Theri. On Vijay - hope you guys try 'Thuppakki' which is one of his biggest blockbusters that has a good story and a very nice treatment. Also try Ghilli which is another film where the treatment is extremely entertaining. Seeing how guys seem to focus on the treatment of the film, these two films have probably the best chances of entertaining you!

SR Kumar

To me it seems Rick disliked it so much that he's finding it hard to criticise "diplomatically".😆

Saurabh

Yes Maya… i have not see any responses on this thread… Theri’s social theme is Crime against Women (atleast that is what they went for)… Bigil does have a powerful message but there are multiple elements brought in ( Drugs, Hate Crime, Oppression of the castes, Racism, Patriarchy) its a lot of packaging for a story about Women Football… and Yes its the Father Vijay that steals the show… but after watching their reaction for Theri… Bigil might also fall short (maybe not as bad as Theri)…this might also generate a certain skepticism while walking into Jawaan… just saying 🙏 I love Bigil as a movie but i am not sure Korbin or Rick can enjoy/appreciate the references and comedy the same way ( Vijay’s Comedy)

Sharath Shaji

By South Mass style do you mean the entrance scenes of the actor in the film? It’s definitely something you have to grow up with or watch a lot more to have more appreciation 😅. If you’re up to it, I’d recommend Rajinikanth tamil movies in the 90s and work your way up from there 😄 . Maybe you’ll feel differently . Of course that’s if you have the time for it haha

Api

What you both said sounds encouraging. I'll definitely try at least Mersal. I like triple characters. Don't know how much I can enjoy this South mass style.

Aleksandra

To add on to Maya’s point, much of that intense hatred has come from viewers of films for movies like dabangg or kal ho na ho, Fan, KGF 2 etc. If you read the comments for this vid you’ll see the audience here is not like that.

Api

I think it was a bad recommendation to watch Theri after they have watched Master… not saying it would have changed your opinion if you had it the other way… Atlee has grown as a Mass Commercial Director… but i feel his storytelling skills are not as strong… it doesnot matter if you watch Mersal or Bigil… I know you will be excited about the commercial elements (songs and action sequences) because they focus on the grandeur but the story will fall flat similar to this movie… because Atlee only needs a plot-line to run the rest of the movie… the rest is just fan service (my humble opinion)… a lot of social issues are roped in to tie Vijay as a leader (it is his template)… i do have hope for Leo ✌️also… i feel bad Rick does not want to express… Rick… I want to hear your thoughts… i hope the people with blind hatred do not deter you from expressing your views to people who actually want to hear it… please consider this thought for the next review!

Sharath Shaji

Rick did change. He just went in the wrong direction. Instead of working round it, he (with no offence what so ever) has now himself assumed that his passion for sharing feelings is being contained and restricted, when it really isn't. It's like if India and ISRO decided to stop Moon missions forever after Chandrayaan-2, instead of learning and not making the same mistake. Imagine if that had happened.

Yuvraj Haldankar

I dont know if you have seen the first season with them. It was a lot of fun.. May be thats why some of us want to watch it with them. At least a few episodes, if not entire season.. Dont know if you have watched Bombay Talkies - Nawaz's movie with them? The watchalong experience was exceptional. Rest is upto Korbin :)

Reva

Exactly! I get they want an Atlee movie to watch before Jawan but why this one? Mersal or Bigil would've been better than this.

Rakesh Raja

They’ve seen Fan, and if you love that movie, I recommend not seeing their review, Rick goes off😭 Asoka, Raees, and KHKN are all great choices for their next SRK watchalong.

Shayan

Yeah I don’t think anyone here has a problem that they didn’t like it. It’s the way Rick thinks he should talk when it comes to delivering critiques . It’s one thing if a film is discriminatory towards a group of people and in that case don’t hold back… but when the film is just not your style , which is almost always the case for them, the way Korbin says his criticism is much more appropriate . Also you’re not the only one who likes kaithi more than vikram haha . I know others who prefer kaithi too

Api

Tastes vary. I love some big hit mass movies and others leave me cold. Loved Sultan but BB left me cold. Loved Pathaan but not Chennai Express. Liked original Vikram Vedha but didn't like Hindi one. Liked Kaithi more than Vikram though that may be unpopular opinion. So on...

Nitin Jain

They heavily misrepresented Tamil community in that movie 🥲

AshQueen

There are very obvious reasons for people not liking Chennai express

Api

Mass cinema in any language is a hit-or-miss affair. Even a hit mass movie is not liked by all audience. A good example is Chennai Express. Big hit and loved by many but not all. Why be defensive about not liking a particular movie? Dont read YT comments😬

Nitin Jain

That was on point Yuvaraj, appreciate how you put it forward, being nasty or rude in the name of honesty is just not acceptable especially when your making these videos to appeal to a set of audience these are not some private video . I really really appreciate Korbin for being matured and seasoned about putting his view across. Life in general is not like the movie "the invention of lying" it is not about placating their viewers but its about being a little understanding of their viewers who appreciate them and celebrate them.I really cant see Rick changing that though but one can hope right 😅😇

Divya

You misunderstood me. I dont want to hear them talk about problems they have no clue on. I know very well they are aware too.. its about the direction.. the cinematic approach.. the editing, development of story , character development.. everything about movie making that these guys know to appreciate/ not appreciate I want to know what they find wrong or right..not morally but the direction in which the story is told.. the directors have taken risks here in their story telling and it needs to be watched.. Same was with Bawaal..the director took a risk and made it with honesty. One may not agree to what they are saying but how they are saying it matters.. Anyway, Its fun to hear well reasoned critique :D its an added perspective! I want to know if they have the same issues as I have with the series..

Reva

You are right Yuvraj.. Indeed, articulating your dislike is a skill. korbin knows his audience and their passion.. I watched the last 5-10 mins just to see what the hullabaloo was about. When Korbin was articulating, Rick said you are being kind and Korbin said I know. I think Rick thinks his honesty is in articulating his dislike in profound expression.. and he feels it should be acceptable. Rick hasnt understood his audience in that way .. he needs to understand his audience is as passionate as he is.

Reva

Mersal is a great film you just have to stay focused as Vijay plays 3 roles haha. Plus it has great music by Ar Rahman

Api

I don't think anybody sensible would hate on anybody for not liking a generally enjoyed or loved film. It's always on how you say it. You can be pure in your thoughts, but also not rant. I'll give my own example. I'm not a huge fan of Black Swan. I think it's fine, but I respect it more than I enjoy it. It's not me not understanding it, or thinking it is not as artistic as everyone says it is. It's just not my thing. Same goes for Barbie, which I also had fun with to an extent, but also found it to be not my thing. I have gripes, but I don't express them as though everyone else is wrong. In these situations, I intentionally take a step back and still act respectful.

Yuvraj Haldankar

I think Varun Dhawan's next movie is a remake of this.

Nitin Jain

Hoo Boy..Jawan😭

Nitin Jain

Theri was Atlee's best in the mass commercial space. If you guys didn't like Theri, tough to see how you'd like the other Atlee 'mass commercial' films like Bigil and Mersal. Theri is nowhere near Vijay's top films in his filmography, but for Atlee, it was his best! Anyways I will still watch this one to see how you react 😂

SR Kumar

You are right ! I guess its a skill and not everybody has it.. honesty also comes from pure expression.. now how he receives the backlash he gets after his said opinion, that also depends on him..

Reva

@Yuvraj- yes, and those arguments are worth the time.. because it is time investable. @Maya- yes I have less than favorable opinion on it, but some series are worth the time. I am interested to know if Korbin and Rick will have different opinions too! They might go loggerheads , who knows! And thats what makes great content as a reaction video.. Everything about MIH is worth discussing.. in the end if one likes it or not is a personal opinion

Reva

Some Suggestions for next SRK movie 1.JAB TAK HAIN JAAN 2.RAEES 3.FAN 4.ASOKA 5.KABHIE HAAN KABHIE NAA

Arafat Bhuiyan

I watched Jana Gana Mana. I liked the story but not particularly the film's overdramatic style. But glad I watched it

Aleksandra

Planning to watch Atlee's film before Jawan to get some idea what to expect. Judging from the comments here Theri is not the best choice. So I'll watch Mersal. Heard favourable opinion from another western female lover of Indian cinema

Aleksandra

Ignoring the blind hate, there are actually a lot of people with well reasoned arguments for why they didn't like it.

Yuvraj Haldankar

Can I just say (as unpopular as it may sound to some), but Korbin really knows how to approach criticism. As a critic, you should never seem as though you are stubbing on people's toes, and Rick's "honesty", as honest as it is, does exactly that. Everyone can accept if you don't like a film they like, but just say it in a nicer and well structured way.

Yuvraj Haldankar

@Viswa WOW

Beautyful_Mess

Atleast first episode can be a watchalong.. you can decide after that if you want to comtinue or not !

Reva

Korbin, hope you give Made in Heaven a chance .. Zoya Akhtar, Reema Kagti , Neeraj Ghayavan are directors you can trust. People were disappointed because of super high expectations. And Rick can be vocal of his opinions as well.. Its a series that actually is worth a critique!

Reva

Just hope this movie didn’t give you a bad impression of vijay 😕

Api

I see comments here talking about Mersal and Bigil being better. Honestly, only the flashback in Mersal is good and father Vijay in Bigil rest is all mediocre and easy to disconnect. Thupakki and Kaththi are the only two safe options in new age Vijay.

Sibi Naayagam

😂 I can promise you we do not “plan” negative reviews 😂 can’t think of why we would ever do that that sounds awful I wish we liked every film

OUR STUPID REACTIONS

I don' have hopes for that they will like Kaththi given the fact they have thrashed Soorarai Pottru which is on same genre. Thuppakki may be a good choice but still they don't seem to like Vijay's funny expression or comic sense which is alot in that film.

Viswa

Not surprising that you guys didn't like. Even though Atlee is best known for his masala entertainment, most of his films even I feel cringy and Theri is least cringy among his films. However his films 1000x better than the bollywood cringes you guys enjoy 😏. Apart from that sometimes I suspect whenever Rick puts a moody face before starting the movie whether the negative review is pre planned (maybe to increase youtube engagment? 🤔).

Viswa

I think you’ll find those better than theri for sure. that’s awesome you got FDFS tickets though. I guess that’s the compromise when we want to see new films early - not getting the chance to read reviews and then make the decision to watch or not. I have high hopes for jawan though as the cast and visuals looks great. 👍

Api

I think mersal would have connected to them better

balaji vittoba

You guys should have watched Mersal which would have connected even more with you guys

balaji vittoba

that’s true I could’ve been influenced by their reaction. Even for their Master watchalong I watched it for the first time with them, and I loved it, so I get your point. I’ll probably see Bigil or Mersal before Jawan, just to see if those ones are better, but man I hope Jawan doesn’t disappoint, I’ve already booked FDFS tickets😔

Shayan

Watch bigil it’s a bigger improvement than theri .. but speaking of theri you probably should’ve watched it on your own first so that you’re not influenced by osr’s reactions.. not saying it’d completely change your view of the film but just saying

Api

I still enjoyed watching this movie again, and it's totally fine that you guys didn't like it. Now I feel Mersal would have been a better choice. That's alright though. Thanks for reacting and being honest! But just wanted to let you know..don't expect a similar experience from Jawan. Atlee's movie making has always been improving technically from movie to movie and this was his 2nd movie. I'm sure Jawan will be more of Mersal and Bigil (both are also vijay movies), and definitely enjoyable.

Diya

This was my first Atlee film, and I was very excited because my most awaited film of the year is Jawan… Let’s just say I’m nervous for Jawan😬😬

Shayan

Yes, his silence was very defeating 😭😂

Beautyful_Mess

I agree that this definitely is not on par with other Atlee - Vijay combos but it's not that bad either. It sucks that they were not able to enjoy this. Honestly, I just don't like to see them this way, I was hoping for a chatty Rick. Hopefully, very soon 🤞.

AshQueen

You are right.. I went straight to last 5 mins of the video.. Rick just sat there in silence.. Rick's silence is worse than his rant about how he didn't like something 💔

AshQueen

I love Kaththi.. I will be recommending that movie until the end of time haha

AshQueen

I’m going to join you in doing that. Lol, it was just not our day today (as Vijay fans) let’s cut our losses and move forward 😔😔

Beautyful_Mess

I had the same thought

Beautyful_Mess

Please don’t come for me but Kaththi is another movie I didn’t enjoy at all but it’s way better than Theri IMO. That coin scene alone is going to put anything in Theri to shame easily.

Beautyful_Mess

I agree with them and it has less to do with Vijay as an actor and more to do with the fact that whenever you see a glimpse of decent scene of Vijay he followed with five meh scenes which leads to a total disconnection from the character and this is coming from someone who LOVEEEES Vijay, I have seen movies like Pokkirri, Ghilli, Bhigil and many more like ten times each. I just couldn’t connect with his character or acting in this movie.

Beautyful_Mess

Think today energy was a lil off even before they started watching.. Rick seems to be tired

AshQueen

I wish I could be that hopeful lol . We’ll see of course I don’t wish that they will not like any of the ones we suggested but just not being hopeful to be on the safe side

Api

Do you like the movie?? If yes, don’t watch this watch along 😭

Beautyful_Mess

master is not a basic commerical film it has a lot more thought put into it than a generic commerical film and is much more grounded than generic commerical films

Princess consuela banana fuck

I genuinely don’t understand people saying things like “you won’t like this and that” completely forgetting this person is not actually you but an individual with their preferences and opinions. You don’t like something doesn’t always mean others won’t like it. Also, since when is Master not a commercial movie??

Beautyful_Mess

time to rewatch Sachein to feel better again 😭

Api

Agreed just would ask Rick to not be texting it was very evident in the beginning portion

Api

I feel sad and bad for Korbin and Rick that they still don’t understand Indian cultural references even after 4 years. One day they’ll understand cultural context, directors mind, actors ears, public brains and then they’ll love these movies even more 😂

Account Deleted

Well, that was painful to watch and I skimmed through the reactions but if I’m being honest I was exactly like Rick through the entire movie and I couldn’t finish it in one go so even though I love Vijay this movie was just not good. I couldn’t connect with the story as well and I had a huge issue with almost everything about it mostly the execution was bad, the story wasn’t great either but even worse it wasn’t handled with the sensitivity it required. Vijay’s character just seemed childish for the most part either he was that or large than life where the character wasn’t needed to show off. I just couldn’t connect with it and I can understand if you two didn’t either. No offence to anyone who loves it but I believe we are all entitled to our preferences.

Beautyful_Mess

I think until Leo, no mass movie suggestions.. I cannot go thru another heartbreak 🥲 I want them to be awestruck with Vijay in Leo to compensate for this watch along. I know most of you want Padayappa but am not so sure. Safe bet is Kamal / Dhanush / Maniratnam / VJS. They will enjoy movies like Vettaiyadu Vilayadu, Pudupettai, Mouna Ragam, Soodhu Kavvum.

AshQueen

what a bad recommendation by whoever did this!!

Naveen

I don’t think they’ll like kaththi to be honest .. they also handle the issues similarly to theri. Better than theri but still in that same format . Thuppaki is the only safe option

Api

They will like Kaththi , Thuppakki is risky

AshQueen

I think they’d like thuppaki but other than that yeah.. after this I don’t have much hope. I think it’s also a cultural thing like the way comedy is delivered in Tamil might not translate well to them . Vijay does a particular comedy often which of course we understand but I don’t know whether they’ll come around to liking it.. they might need to watch as many Tamil films as they have Hindi to get that lol

Api

It all started as Nitin Aggarwal spewing hate and then became Nathan Boyd and now Chandrima Paul who calls on for attacks by wolves just like the rest ! Anyways @ api ur right its waste of time !

Divya

Irony is most people thought they wouldn't like Master and suggested Theri that time 😣

AshQueen

The only other Vijay movie other than master you would love is nanban(3 idiots remake)... The rest are pretty basic commerical films which we love but is harder you guys to love

Princess consuela banana fuck

Didn’t say much about his acting

Api

Will patiently wait for the next Vijay movie watch a long whenever that is so that i can forget about this ☹️

Api

Hw come you never have anything to say when OSR love the movie like Master or Thiruchithrambalam? Anyways just like all great masterpieces you love add this to your list !!

Divya

@Korbin - Is it okay to bully other patrons here? Please look at the comment from Chandrima Paul.

AshQueen

It’s Nathan Boyd, don’t bother entertaining him 🤦🏽‍♀️

Api

Really?!

AshQueen

Ohh yeah there are so many such master pieces all over just like the ones you love as well !! They are queued up !!

ThiruWilliams

What hurt me the most is you mentioning Samantha's was the strongest performance with no mention of Vijay's 😐

AshQueen

Wow, this was a masterpiece. Looking forward for more masterpieces 😂

Account Deleted

Wanted to suggest something of Atlee's that didn't star Vijay

AshQueen

@Korbin - "Raja Rani" should be the redemption watchalong of Atlee's likewise

AshQueen

@Korbin - "Kaththi" should be the redemption watchalong of Vijay's if you didn't enjoy this one much.

AshQueen

Did they say that? 😒

AshQueen

😭 I am yet to watch but looking at the comments got me sad

AshQueen

Pls do watchalong of JANA GANA MANA and Nna Thaan case kodu from malayalam..

Vishnu T

Korbin if you really hate this watch along my very strong recommendation is not to upload it to YouTube...you just dont want the wrath of Vijay warriors! My very honest suggestion to you!

Divya

Vijayyyy ❤️‍🔥❤️‍🔥❤️‍🔥 I’m scared 😟 Mostly because I don’t like Theri all that much 😭

Beautyful_Mess

Same thuppaki would’ve been my first choice but since jawan is coming out, theri made sense 😬

Api

All I hope is you guys don’t think Vijay can’t act because he definitely can 😕

Api

It’s all fair if you don’t like the movie but at least Rick can put his phone awayy

Api

Its a different experience in itself than Lokesh .. audience are different but Theri is a proper Atlee movie with Vijay and an interesting story line that appeals to many in Tamil Nadu and especially when its their idol it works miles more than any other movie ! But to each their own 😅 But Rick did look so disinterested but you made up for it Korbin ..love you for that ❤️

Divya

Theri is the worst of the Atlee/ Vijay joints. Bigil and Mersal are better than this, even if both are super over the top even more so than this. Vijay’s goofy stylish acting doesn’t really work in Theri.

Rakesh Raja

The thumbnail already told me what I needed to know 😕😕😭 . If I’m being Honest, Atlee movies are a hit or miss whereas lokesh films I think translate well across a larger group of people

Api

Lmaooo. I’m excited to watch this but going from Master to this must have been quite the leap. Thuppakki would’ve been the better one.

Rakesh Raja

🔥 🔥 🔥
