Coolie is a high-octane treat that showcases #Rajinikanth at his charismatic best! #LokeshKanagaraj crafts a gripping tale with electrifying action sequences and a solid emotional core. The stylish visuals and pulsating score elevate the experience, though the pacing stumbles slightly in the second half. Thalaivar’s larger-than-life presence and some jaw-dropping stunts make this a must-watch for fans. A near-perfect entertainer that earns a strong 4/5! #CoolieReview” #Coolie.
COOLIE SECOND HALF REVIEW
User @LetsXott posted 2nd half review
#COOLIE — A gripping tale of vengeance, justice & redemption. SUPERSTAR @rajinikanth delivers his best mass action in recent years—every scene leaves you Rajinified! Shruti Haasan’s Preethi brings an emotional touch. @anirudhofficial shines in both BGM & songs, elevating every frame. @nimmaupendra’s cameo clicks. KING @iamnagarjuna is Lokesh Kanagaraj’s most stylish villain—pure energy! Rachitha impresses. while Soubin is decent throughout. Overall a Perfect Watch — Highly Recommend, Enjoy with your family .

War2Review ~ The MOST STYLISH SPY UNIVERSE FILM !
Rating: ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
#War2 has everything we could ask for in a spy film — the STAR POWER of #HrithikRoshan and #JrNTR, STYLE, SWAG, SCALE, and most importantly, a STORY that is different from other SPY FILMS.
The different side of Kabir, played by @iHrithik, will get a HUGE ROAR and endless claps from fans. His screen presence, dialogue delivery, and the way he presents himself on screen are among the BEST in world cinema
The BRUTE and EVIL FORCE, @tarak9999, is a force to be reckoned with. His close-up shots, those INTENSE EYES, and the GOD-LEVEL elevation scenes will erupt theatres! Just BRILLIANT TIGER
MASSIVE SWORD ACTION block, Somalia Sequence, an EPIC dance clash, SUPERSTAR entry shots, an explosive INTERVAL, and a CLIMAX Montage plus POST-CREDIT scenes make it worth every penny. SUPER-BUMPER entertainment
Ayan’s direction, @yrf ‘s SCALE — everything works !! @advani_kiara looks BEAUTIFUL and fits perfectly in the action sequences — too good postures 👌🏻 The drawback is the MUSIC, which feels like the weakest in the entire spy Universe and is not that FAST PACED film ..
Overall, this is a SUPER COOL ACTION STUFF that celebrates the UNIQUENESSES OF SPY UNIVERSE!! GO CELEBRATE THE LEGACIES OF THESE SUPERSTARS.
Overall Review – Coolie vs War 2
Coolie – Rajinikanth’s Mass Appeal with Heart
Rating: ⭐⭐⭐⭐☆ (4/5)
Coolie is a perfect blend of mass entertainment and emotional storytelling. Rajinikanth’s performance is magnetic, carrying the film with his trademark style, charisma, and strong dialogue delivery. The narrative connects with the audience on an emotional level while still delivering powerful action sequences.
Strengths: Balanced screenplay, emotional depth, impactful dialogues, strong supporting cast.
Weak Points: A few slow-paced scenes in the middle may test the patience of action-focused viewers.
War 2 – Action Spectacle on a Global Scale
Rating: ⭐⭐⭐⭐☆ (4/5)
War 2 is a high-voltage action thriller that doesn’t let go of your attention from start to finish. Hrithik Roshan shines as Kabir, delivering breathtaking stunt work and a confident performance. The film’s technical quality — including VFX, sound design, and cinematography — meets international standards.
Strengths: Top-notch action choreography, slick visuals, fast-paced narrative, global spy-thriller feel.
Weak Points: Lacks emotional engagement; character arcs could have been deeper.
