Review:
Hi is your typical fun-filled, feel-good entertainer, with its share of highs and lows. What works in its favour is its simplicity and the actors’ performances. When you have an army of seasoned performers, you don’t have to worry about the emotional parts, as they can carry them with ease, and Hi is rich on that front. It has a superb cast, along with an in-form Kavin and Nayanthara. Bhagyaraj, Radhika, Prabhu and the rest of the cast have performed well, making a few melodramatic scenes sail through without much difficulty.
is in his forte and performs with ease. has a strong presence, like in her other movies, but she performs more naturally here than in those films. ’s music gels well with the flow, and the songs are decent. The problem with Hi is its predictable screenplay, which isn’t boring but doesn’t make the film special either. A few emotional scenes towards the end feel rushed and don’t land as intended. Vishnu Edavan, in his debut, has delivered a decent feel-good movie.
