Positive Points: Karthi acting – Humorous dialogues – First Half Negative Points: Second Half – Story – screenplay
Technical Aspects: Director Raju Murugan doesn’t fully bring out Karthi’s acting talents, falling short in both directing and writing. On the bright side, GV Prakash Kumar’s music is a standout. The cinematography and production values are okay, but the editing needs improvement. The VFX is average, but the excellent dubbing makes it feel like watching a regular Telugu movie.
Verdict: In a nutshell, “Japan” is a slow but action-packed crime comedy drama. Karthi shines with funny lines and a witty performance, and the music stands out. However, the weak storyline and not-so-great screenplay lessen the overall impact. One time watch or You might want to consider other movie options for the weekend.
