Jailer Movie Story:

Tiger Muthu Velu Pandian (Rajinikanth), who previously worked as a jailer in Tihar Jail, lives with his son’s family after retirement. Son Arjun(Vasant Ravi) is ACP. His father’s words to be righteous and honest are working supremely. But Arjun, who is involved with Varma (Vinayakan), the head of an idol smuggling gang, misses out in unexpected circumstances. 

The police close the case that he is dead. Saddened that he had to distance his son because of his honest upbringing, Muthu tries to find out who actually caused his son’s death and eliminate them. How did his old friends like Shivraj Kumar, Mohanlal, Jackie Shroff, and Makaranda Desh Pandey help in this process? Was he able to save his son in the end? Or? That is the story of this movie.

Jailer Movie Analysis:

The story of this Jailer movie directed by Nelson Dilip Kumar is not new. It seems similar to the stories in the movies we have seen in the past, but it seems that Nelson has taken care in making this movie. Nelson, who made the last film Beast, then focused on this film. When an actor like Rajinikanth was found, he seemed to have paid attention to elevating his heroism, but for some reason, he did not pay that attention to the story. 

After retirement, Nelson tried to convince the audience by bringing out how Rajinikanth, who had left his old life and was afraid even of his grandson, had suddenly changed in the background of the situation. In the first off, Rajinikanth’s combination scenes with Yogi Babu were very good.

Stomach churning with silent comedy. But the pre-interval scene filled the excitement of all the audience watching the movie. The first half seems a bit long but after entering the second half the pace of the story picks up. Even if the story seems routine, if some suspense was maintained in terms of twists, the result would have been on a different level. Rajinikanth’s heroism, Anirudh Ravichandra’s background score, and Yogi Babu’s comedy scenes drive the whole movie. If Nelson Dilip Kumar’s stories were also added to these, Jailer would have reached unimaginable levels. The climax was hard-hitting like no one expected. 

Jailer Movie Actors Performance:

First of all, when it comes to the actors, Rajinikanth seemed to lead the entire film on his shoulders. As usual, there is nothing special to say about Rajinikanth’s performance. In addition to that, he got excited and acted to satisfy the actor in him when he was given a role that was suitable for his age. Especially the pre-interval scene and the warning scene to the villain, as well as Rajinikanth’s acting in some other scenes, are amazing. 

Vasantha Ravi who played the role of Rajinikanth’s son in this movie and Ramya Krishna who played the role of his wife gave a settled performance. Ramyakrishna did not have much scope for acting but tried to impress in her range. Kannada star hero Siva Rajakumar, Malayalam star hero Mohanlal and Hindi star actor Jackie Shroff appeared on the screen for a short time but when they came, they gave elevations along with the background score to make the theaters shake.

All in all, it can be said that this movie will be a good memory for all of them. And Telugu actor Sunil’s role has a big scope, but it seems that even though there is a chance to use it, it was left aside for some reason. Yogi Babu smiled as always. Nagababu also shines in only one scene. When Nelson Dilip Kumar cast so many star heroes in the film, it would have been better if the story had been written with a little more depth, the result of the film would have been different. 

Dialogues in Telugu are good. Along with Rajinikanth, Anirudh Ravichandran seemed to carry the entire film on his shoulders. Anirudh Ravichander has also dusted off the background score along with the songs. It can be said that the cinematography is also a good asset of the film. It would have been better if the editor had been a little more careful about the length.

To say final

Jailer is a solid comeback for Rajinikanth. This is a movie that needs to be experienced in theatres.
