Banner: Orcher Studios
Production: Soundarya Rajnikanth
Star – Casts: Jai, Vaibhav, Premji, Sampath, Aravind, Sneha, Piyaa, Prasanna, Simbhu and Nayanthara…
Music: Yuvan Shankar Raja
Direction: Venkat Prabhu
First let’s take off with the film’s verdict that should probably save your time from reading this review itself. Of course, we believe reading this complete review is itself a waste of time if you have already booked the tickets. But for those, who haven’t, there’s a big chance to escape from this annoying Venkat Prabhu holiday. This isn’t a Holiday actually, but a pestiferous show filled with lethargic moments.
‘Goa’ – it really makes us doubt whether Venkat Prabhu has really shot the film over there. Naturally, most of the sequences look to be canned on ECR beaches. Pulling in bikini babes and projecting couple of montages doesn’t mean that it’s Goa.
Did Soundarya Rajnikanth listen to the script completely before signing Venkat Prabhu? If not, she’s not worth producing any films in future and if she had heard the tale, it isn’t a right choice. Enna Koduma Sir ithu??? (Premji Style)
The film revolves around three friends Ramarajan (Jai), Swamikannu (Premji Amaran) and Vinayagam (Vaibhav) are always boisterous troublemakers in their village. When they’re unable to bear the pudden-headed traditions curbing down their freedom, they get in escapade drama and find themselves in Madurai attending their friend’s marriage. And these guys are extremely surprised to see his below-average looking guy marrying a stunningly beautiful foreign girl. Now, they draw a simple conclusion, fly down to Goa, marry a foreign girl and get settled in a different country to enjoy lavish lifestyle.
But as they land in Goa, it’s a different situation for these boys as they encounter unexpected things after falling in love with girls.
Venkat Prabhu seems to be inspired from various films including American Pie, Dostana and more.
Portraying Sampath and Aravind as gay couples is unasked trouble that Venkat Prabhu bargains for. Our audiences haven’t grown up yet and he should have better studied audiences’ psychology as the B and frontbenchers yell him at bad words for showcasing such factors. The first half is completely disappointing with unwanted elements and by the intermission point; you’ll run out of theatres. But when as the film proceeds towards second half, there are some interesting moments which don’t help in anyway. It really takes a long time to establish the story and Venkat Prabhu seems to be more confused over drawing so many things within last 40mins. Guest appearance of Prasanna, Nayanthara and Silambarasan are worthy appreciable, but the time these characters come up with presence, it’s too late as audiences tired with irksome screenplay.
Premji Amaran dominated the complete film as he gets more footage when compared to other star-casts. Vaibhav vanishes for a very long time and finally finds a specific place during second half, which is completely disappointing and Jai (Even his Paint does not Stay in his hips) doesn’t get more into hilarious moments. But his English dialogues with Vaibhav as ‘Come Towel, Go Towel’ are mind-boggling one liner. Sneha can better start performing aunty roles as she tries a lot to spot herself younger. Jessica simply mesmerizes us with her simple yet alluring looks. Piyaa looks good and fits the role as a Goa girl while Sampath shaded with gayety is worth mentioning and Aravind looks stunning with six pack.
Though the actors have done a great job with their specified roles, the biggest flaw remains with Venkat Prabhu’s dim-witted script copycatted from American Pie and a very weak screenplay. Strictly a big NO for Kids and Family audience.
On the whole, ‘Goa’ is a Mokka Padam as it really tastes your patience to greater magnitude…
Bottom – Line: A Venkat Prabhu Torture….
Verdict: Its not Goa, Its Guyva

Pathetic review. The film was not as bad as the reviewer says. These are the kind of reviewers killing the Cine industry.
Before Reading the review, Kindly Read this.
This review is totally is baseless pile of carp. Trying to say its better than bunch of similar movies which we have been seeing for more than a decade. Im not convincing this movie(GOA) as a BEST movie ever made. Its just an entertainer, i mean specially for youth like us. Though not like Premji’s previous movies. Could have tried better with better scripting.
To the reviewer: Its just an another movie out of our regular Action Heroism Genre. Calm Down!
This is a shit website to read reviews !!!!!!!!!
this is really a BADDDDDDDDD review, i saw the audience giving a standing applause at the end of the movie. the same time in the screen it was saying “A venkat Prabhu Holiday”. Well done Venkat Prabhu !!!
what a rude review…. this kind of barbarians should not be allowed to write reviews at the first place… new directors and producers are experimenting with creative ideas and themes . Besides, suggesting one of the most talented actress of south, Sneha to do aunty roles is really inhumane while more aged, married actresses are still doing heroine roles in bollywood.Do u realise that fact???Wake up… i think u better watch tamil dramas and don’t ever go to cinemas again. This kind of unprofessional reviews kill the improvement of tamil cinema…
this is very arrogant review.The film is not that bad.It is very good.Reading this review is really waste of time and boring but Goa is good(dont expect any story or logic) jus go with your friends(gang) and enjoy the movie.Dont believe reviews this review sucks
Damu is rite. The film was nt bad as the review. I enjoyed watched the movie. Plz dnt gv such review again. Help tamil cinema to improve. Dnt kill it. Ennah kodumai sir ithu
pakka review..hit the nail on the head,I havent been to such a torturous movie in the last 3 years,its shoddy film making at its zenith
goa film wanot so mokkai its just an entertianment film the review is not true go to theatre and enjoy the film
It shows how narrow-minded the commentator is! The generation of guys who go after cheap BF cds must not post comments like this. There are cultural changes everywhere! I like to tell the reviewer one thing. We already had a movie saying of gay couple(vettaiyadu vilaiyadu), and it was a total success. When you didn’t rise your voice against that movie which showed all sorts of violence and devastating social turbulences in it, why should you do it for just a comedy movie?It is totally a wrong notion to comment on a concept that is already alive! A concept that is wrong in your notion may be good for some, better for some and the best for some. Whom do you think is unaware of gay things? Right from the younger genres to the olders, all are aware. And places like Goa may have such numbers.
Venkat Prabhu is not mentioning or completely focussing on it. He always wants his movies to be a 100% entertainer. Learn to find the light hearted side of the movie. Your pessimistic view is very clear on this part.
I strongly feel you are one swan that drinks all the water and leave the milk in the cup for others!
When you post a comment, remember the social values and then comment. People are not babies.
In the words of Dharumi, “Ungala pola ooruku oruthar, vaenaam, nee orutharae podum, nalla padangalai kedukarathukku!!!”
This is really a worth watch movie with fun. Just see and enjoy it without any expectations. Surely will make u laugh a lot. Actually the review not suits the film. Dont waste ur time reading review, instead watch the movie.
