Adhik Ravichandran’s ‘Good Bad Ugly’, starring Ajith Kumar, is a well-mounted fan-service vehicle

The plot is about… actually, you won’t care. This is not about the story. This is about the star, as the director unleashes one mass moment after another. It’s fun for a while, but eventually gets exhausting. The rest of this review may contain spoilers.

A gangster father goes to jail for the sake of his family – because his wife asks him to turn into a good man. And he is separated from his son for eighteen long years. And when he is released, the son ends up in jail. That’s the hero’s side of Good Bad Ugly. Now, consider the villain’s side. We have a womaniser with mommy issues, and this ends up being the reason bad things happen to the hero’s son. Now, consider the son. He has grown up without a father, and he now has a girlfriend, who’s probably the only person he can share things with. And then, something happens to her, too. Now, consider the hero’s wife. She has been blaming her husband and his gangster past all along for the family’s troubles, but she realises that she may have to shoulder some of the blame, too. All said, there is enough serious material for a solid action-drama.
