Plot

Parthiban is a café owner who also rescues animals. He lives with his family in Himachal. He is married to Sathya and has two children, Siddhu and Madhi. In an issue with gangsters in the café, Parthiban had to face legal charges. Later, he is acquitted as it is a self-defense. Meanwhile, his life crosses the tracks of Antony Das and Harold Das, who suspect Parthiban to be Leo Das, the son of Antony Das. Leo was considered dead in an accident 20 years ago. But, they suspect Leo is disguised as Parthi and leading a family life. Were they able to find Leo in Parthiban? The rest of the film deals with it.

Star Performance

Vijay satisfies his fans with his action avatar and a different performance. Trisha and Vijay's combination is rocking for their fans. The film includes Sanjay Dutt, Arjun, Priya Anand, GVM, and many bigheads. Yet, they all lack some projection, despite their incredible performances, as Vijay dominates the entire film.

Analysis

The film comes under LCU with Kamal's voice-over. This would be a satisfying one for Vijay fans. However, it looks somewhat forcedly inserted for the next LCU franchise. Anirudh's music goes well in the action scenes. Yet, the noise should have been reduced in the second half. Coming to the director, Lokesh has done justice to Vijay's fans, yet he could have minimized the bloodshed scenes. This film's family sentiment quotient is better than Kamal Haasan starrer Vikram. The cinematography and editing are pretty decent. Yet, the VFX could have been better.

What's There?

Vijay's presence is the biggest plus
Good star cast for Hindi dubbing

What's Not There?

Anirudh's music syncs well in action sequences, yet it is louder in the second half
VFX could've been a bit better

Verdict

Leo is a complete entertainer for Vijay and Lokesh's fans. Vijay's presence elevated the story to the next level and entertain the audience. Leo – watchable once!
