Story-;

Enemy traces the story of two childhood friends, who turn foes due to one’s ego and jealousy. Chozhan (Vishal) and Rajiv (Arya), in their early teens, are trained by Rajiv’s father, an ex-CBI officer (Prakash Raj) to make them join the Police. But, certain situations make them part ways and years later, Chozhan becomes a departmental store owner and Rajiv becomes an underground hitman. Fate brings them together once again and they decide to lock horns against each other. What was the conflict between them and who won the face-off forms the plot of Enemy.

Actor Vishal appears in the film as the character Chozhan who lived in Singapore owning a supermarket where he teaches his childhood skills to the Tamil community in his locality. He had no idea that soon he is going to en counter his childhood friend Rajiv played by actor Arya. Rajiv’s character shows anger that almost looks like a perfect villain in his acting which is loved by the audience. The movie shows the circumstances of how the two kids grew up in different ways as good and bad persons. Vishal and Arya facing each other in various situations become much predictable and their clash consists of intelligence and wits ending the story as a revenge drama.

Movie Review-;

Anand Shankar’s new film Enemy starring Vishal and Arya, is a film that wants to place two characters equally powerful against each other. But the problem is with the spoon-fed narrative that intends to explain each and every bit. After setting up the premise, the film goes towards a central conflict that feels way too brittle. With the second half of the movie lacking conviction, Enemy feels exhausting and ends up being a disappointment. Enemy is the action thriller released this Diwali directed by Anand Shankar and produced by Vinod Kumar under Mini Studios production. The story of Enemy begins with the scene where the lead role Prakash Raj appearing as a CBI officer seems training two children his Son and neighbour’s child. He was trying to make them competent at that young age. The two kids trained by Prakash Raj are actors Vishal and Arya in the film. The former CBI officer has the wish to make both the kids join police forces as he wanted to see them as officers in top ranks when they grew up. The plot of the film is set on the basis of these two kids turning against each other in the future.

Chozhan and Rajiv were best friends in their childhood. Rajiv’s father was an ex-CBI officer, and he trained both of these boys to be efficient police officers. But after the untimely death of Rajiv’s father, the boys got separated. Years later, Chozhan and his father are running a grocery shop in Singapore. Rajiv had grown to become an assas sin. When Rajiv arrives in Singapore for his new mission, Chozhan is able to spot his presence and what we see in Enemy is that cat and mouse game between the two. Actor Vishal appears in the film as the character Chozhan w ho lived in Singapore owning a supermarket where he teaches his childhood skills to the Tamil community in his locality. He had no idea that soon he is going to encounter his childhood friend Rajiv played by actor Arya. Rajiv’s character shows anger that almost looks like a perfect villain in his acting which is loved by the audience.

The movie shows the circumstances of how the two kids grew up in different ways as good and bad persons. Th ere are three or four instances in the whole film where the plot twist will actually impress you. But the narrative isn’t coherent enough to convince you, and all these photographic memory and intelligence are too much for the viewer to digest. Up to interval, even though the film is using its creative liberty, there is a sense of engagement to the script. But once the movie goes to the second half, the writing is running out of ideas. It becomes an ego-driven cat and mouse game that gets dragged far too much. Arya addresses a whole neighborhood by appearing on a giant LED display, and I wonder who would have placed a camera on that for him to see the people.Just like Anand Shankar’s last two films, Enemy also has these glossy locations and the scale. Certain set-pieces in the mo vie do use the visual grandeur of a place like Singapore.

But the film isn’t that gripping to make us feel the need for such a scale. It’s almost like, they decided to shoot it in Singapore first and then designed the stunts based on that. The muddled second half is the major speed bump for the movie. To mess up Rajiv’s plan, Chozhan even decides to get engaged in a matter of hours. And the twists getting twists reminded me of the Abbas Mustan thrillers, especially the Race franchise. RD Rajashekhar’s cin ematography projects the scale of the movie for the most part, and the visual effects and production design we re good. The music doesn’t really stay with you as most of it is added forcefully, while the background score co uld create an impact.  Vishal and Arya facing each other in various situations become much predictable and their clash consists of intelligence and wits ending the story as a revenge drama. Mirnalini Ravi playing the female le ad role of Ashmitha in the film does justice to her character as she looks pleasing to watch. The stunt
