‘GOAT’ Twitter Review: Fans Call Vijay’s Best Since ‘Master’, Praise ‘Banger Climax’

Thalapathy Vijay’s latest film, ‘GOAT’ (The Greatest of All Time), premiered in theaters on September 5, drawing significant fanfare and celebrations. The film showcases Vijay in a double role as a field agent and a spy, having completed over 65 successful missions. Initial reactions from fans are pouring in, with many calling it one of Vijay’s best performances, especially praising the film’s second half and climax. However, some critics have labeled it as ‘mokkai’ (boring).

Fan Reactions

One fan described it as a ‘blockbuster,’ giving it a 4.5/5 rating. They tweeted, “#GOAT Review: BLOCKBUSTER – Commercial cinema at its best! 🥵 – Entertaining first half – Peak second half Banger climax 🥵🫡 Interesting cameos 😉 Intro scene 🔥 Thalapathy vs Ilaya Thalapathy 💥 Rating – 4.5/5.”

Another fan expressed excitement, “We Won Thalaivaa @actorvijay 😭💥💥 BLOCKBUSTER 🔥🔥🔥🔥.” Another added, “#GOAT BLOCKBUSTER 🔥🔥🔥 First Half – 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥 Second Half – 🔥🔥🔥.”

One fan praised Vijay’s performance as his career best, noting, “Lot of twists and turns that keep you engaged in the second half. As @archanakalpathi said, you can’t review the movie without spoilers. Don’t watch reviews before seeing it. Theatre la saravedi. First half was good. Second half, as @vp_offl said, is unpredictable. Despite being a 3-hour movie, I didn’t feel like checking my phone. For #VenkatPrabhu, it’s another #Mangatha.”

A more reserved review stated, “#GOATTheMovie #TheGreatestOfAllTime GOAT ✨ REVIEW: Vijay sir’s acting is very good 👌 decent screenplay… younger Vijay is 🔥 de-aging could have been better 👎 Vijayakanth Ai to Vijay sir intro… not bad..😊 Sk cameo Ak reference seems forced but worked in some scenes 2.5/5.”

Film trade analyst Manobala Vijaybalan had a less favorable opinion, tweeting, “#Goat: BLOATS👎🏻 #TheGreatestOfAllTime ❌ The WASTE(st) Of All Time.”
