Mr.TSV Hari Being a critic you r biased to the core.Wen a movie like pokiri is judged very good wat is missing in billa? In pokiri no change in costume,most of the music,the hero's father,hero`s name:sathiymoorthy,everthing copied even a small hand kerchief.Being biased like this just resign your job and join the fan's club of ur favourite(useless) hero and become his ......................................................."kolgai parappu seiyalalar"..........

Who told Billa is a flop.. Irrespective of the story, direction, etc... it is the only movie which is running successfully now all over TamilNadu... Hope you know it.

SO U AGREE THAT THERS NO STORY OR DIRECTION IN IT...U FORGOT TO ADD ONE MORE..NO ACTING! JUST WEARING BLACK GLASSES N SUITS N SLOW-MO WALKING DOESNT CLASSIFY AS ACTING! N FYI, KALLOORI IS A FAR MORE WORTHY TAMIL FILM TO WATCH N IS SUCCESSFUL NOT ONLY IN TAMILNADU BUT OUTSIDE OF IT TOO! WAKE UP

Ha.. Even he sits in the same chair in the same position where Mahesh babu sits. They never mention about all these things.
when watch billa should forgot the old billa, billa technically good, the presentation is also good. nowadays nobody watch story because all action film has the same story with little bit change, the pokiri story is always stolen from (Kamal's kakki chattai, and rajini's pondiyan)so story is not important, but screen play is important, billa screen play is good.

ya man, very gud screenplay, written by ajit himself!! scene by scene, dialogue by dialogue copied from amitab bachan's classic don...only thing is ajit does not know to act except to wear black glasses..at least vijay copies n creates style, this guy does not have any style at all!

And not only that... Literally copying the style of telugu superstars. Obviously the film will be hit.
Reporter sucks..if he feel this billa is bad and the some of the crap movies lik pokkiri and sachin are good then it shows tht he is out of mind..Billa wat a classy attempt,first time in tamil a techn and visually sound movie cant they appreciate it but jus lookin for damn reason to make it a bad movie.And shah rukh DON is a hit is it who said so???pls go and update urself before commenting a movie.Better u stop writing comment
The way the film is directed is good. Since, the story is same old one its just a Old wine in a new bottle. And people who knows abt it still watching n critizing. And what they say for people who are remaking block-buster Telugu movies..

I watched Billa yesterday. Pokkiri I have no idea why it ran so well but this one except for its splendid visuals, nothing in it.
Billa is not disappointing. It is disgusting. I wonder how many dons in recent days go and exchange "potti's" directly with their customers. Exchange of potti means the director is highlighting that Billa is into narcotics, he is a smuggler ?! Come on man. There is no scope for anyone to perform in this film. The film literally fails at the start when Prabhu informs the other officer "I like Billa becoz he is intelligent".
I also wonder when they are going to improve with this username/password things. Nayanthara is totally useless. The introduction scene of her is the biggest comedy in Tamil cinema in recent times.
Everyone is in a designer wear, Rayban sunglasses (even in night), Ferrari cars and the women are dressed very less.
Billa Biryani is looking rich and spicy but it has no taste in it. Whats the point in eating it ?
Ajit has proved once again he is not good in picking scripts.

Good observation. Still ended in picking only negative points of the film. It has few defects logically. Still, it is a good entertainer. Especially for Thala fans.
Note: Running successfully in all the theatres especially Sathyam.

I watched it in PVR and it was fullhouse even for a night show but obviously when people come out during the interval, they were disappointed and some made rude comments abt the film.
No one can deny that the film is a hit but the worry is it cud have been made better. VV definitely shud have done some tinkering to the story and researched more by going through a Tarantino or Scorcese or Copolla film and Billa cud have been the greatest tamil film in recent years.
Lots of looseners. Everyone say Ajit "performed" well. Walking for a theme music and turning head here and there is not acting at all. Acting is just reacting. Atleast he shud have done some voice modulation for both characters.
To show Billa is a hardcore criminal, he need not kill everyone. Then a guy who cuts chicken and cooks it is also a criminal. A scene like the one is Godfather when Jack Woltz wakes up to find the bloody severed head of his prize horse in the bed with him.
Neither Vijay nor Ajit are going to act in a monumental film. That is for sure becoz they are not ready to work hard and always want to be in the safer side and do masalas and remakes only. Ajit easily cud have done Autograph and Ghajini and he missed it.

I just dont understand it. this Pongal vijay acted in pokiri which was a remake of telugu one. Infact it was a scene by scene remake. they even used the same fight sequences and dole dole than was just a mere translation from telugu version. Infact vijay even used the same acting style as of mahesh babu(even the dialogue delivery was the same.). Then even used the same costume style(double shirts) But rediff said pokiri was excellent and vijay was very good. But ajith's billa is pretty good. It was technically sound and visually stunning. The way the film was executed is totally different, But they are saying billa dissapoints and ajith imitated the velu character from the original. Does any of this make any sense at all to u. I am terribly confused. I publicly ask the reviewer(if he has guts) to tell me what he found in pokkiri(remake) that was not in billa(remake).
I would also like to add that i am a kamal fan but i like vijay as much as ajith
Hi Ajith's fan, I watched da movie in London n I think da movie was reallly superb!!!!! I am not at all a fan of him but I like da movie,So who ever thinks da movie is bad should keep ur comments 2 urself and come 2 the 21st century and da new generations.
I have heard about COPY CAT during exams even in that the students writes something different from the original but BILLA is the same old one except the new print and camera stills and to add was shot in malayasia , the highlight of the movie is the THUMBDRIVE scene .. please technology has improved so much what i can say is dont go with much expectations because surely you are about to get disappointed
