Leo Twitter review: Lokesh Kanagaraj film is 'blockbuster' with Thalapathy Vijay's 'best performance ever', say viewers

The most-awaited Tamil film of the year, Leo starring Thalapathy Vijay and directed by Lokesh Kanagaraj has finally hit theatres on October 19. Also starring Sanjay Dutt, Trisha, Arjun, Gautham Vasudev Menon, and Mysskin among others, the action-packed entertainer has already earned more than Rs 100 crore in advance ticket sales. 

Fans and moviegoers went to watch the first day first show of the film, which began as early as 4 a.m. in various cities, and have shared their opinions on micro blogging platform X, formerly called Twitter. Vijay's performance is being hailed as his 'career best act' and the film has already been declared a 'sureshot blockbuster' after its early morning shows.

Sharing his review for Leo, a netizen wrote, "Fabulous 1st half & a decent 2nd half. 2nd half got 2 big moments including that climax. Peak performance from #Vijay in each & every scene. Am watching it again in theaters for the climax & the 1st half. #LCU or not, Do watch in theatres and find out to respect the makers. And no spoilers pls."

"LEO - The First Half itself got a Superb Repeat Value with Two solid tension filled Action Blocks And the Surprises were blended in Neatly without affecting the flow of the screenplay. Few moments in the Second Half Will be a treat for fans. Will be watching the Count 2 on IMAX version this Saturday", read another post.

Predicting that the Thalapathy Vijay-starrer will break box office records, another moviegoer wrote, "Rest in peace box office records. #Leo is an obituary note for all collection records. Kick ass first half followed by a slightly low second half however climax makes it up. Bloody sweet and badass, literally!!".
