Cast: Rajinikanth, Deepika Padukone, Nasser, Jackie Shroff, Sarath Kumar, Aadhi, Shobana, NageshDirection: Soundarya Rajinikanth AshwinGenre: HistoryDuration: 1 hour 50 minutes
Two kingdoms are at war with each other and a young general, through cunning and valour, puts his nation at an advantage. But he also has another goal — bringing down his own king to avenge his father's death.
Review: Kochadaiiyaan opens with a prologue that tells us that the two kingdoms, Kottaipattinam and Kalingapuri, have been at war with one another for generations. We see a boy from Kottaipattinam, who is about to drown, being rescued and the boy, Rana, grows up to become a soldier in Kalingapuri. He earns the friendship of the prince Veera Mahendran, and is made the general of its army. He seeks the king's permission to attack their enemy nation but on the battlefield, Rana reveals himself to be the son of Kochadaiiyaan, the famed general of Kottaipattinam and admits that he enacted a drama to rescue the soldiers of his motherland, who were being held as slave labourers there. Rana is received with joy by his king and even gets him to marry the prince to his sister, but he also has an ulterior motive — to kill the king, who had unfairly sentenced his father to death.
Kochadaiiyaan succeeds not because of technology but because of the writing. The film is motion capture 3D computer-animated but the animation is primeval;
