Starring
Nayanthara,
Vinay,
Sathyaraj,
Anupam
Kher
and
others,
the
film
Connect
is
directed
by
Ashwin
Saravanan,
who
attracted
everyone's
attention
by
directing
films
including
Maya,
Game
Over
and
Iravakalam.
Connect
will
be
released
on
December
22,
2022.
Here
is
the
review
of
the
movie
based
on
the
audience
response
from
the
preview
show
that
happened
yesterday
at
Chennai.
Joseph
(Vinay)
and
Susan
(Nayantara)
have
an
only
daughter,
Anna;
Susan's
father
is
Arthur
Samuel
(Sathyaraj).
It's
a
Christian
family.
At
a
time
when
life
was
going
well,
the
corona
virus
started
spreading
rapidly.
In
this
situation,
Joseph,
a
doctor,
is
treating
the
patients
lying
in
the
hospital.
At
one
point,
he
also
gets
infected
with
corona
virus
and
dies.
Anna,
who
is
inordinately
fond
of
her
father,
tries
to
talk
to
her
dead
father
with
the
help
of
a
witch.
In
the
witch's
trap,
a
demon
enters
Anna's
body;
At
one
point,
this
matter
is
revealed
to
Samuel
and
Susan,
and
their
efforts
to
drive
away
the
ghost
are
told
with
a
thrilling
experience,
that
is
the
story
of
the
movie
Connect!
Actress
Nayanthara
fits
the
role
of
Susan
perfectly;
Be
it
a
scene
involving
an
office
persona,
a
scene
where
she
trembles
at
the
sight
of
a
ghost,
or
a
scene
where
she
feels
the
pain
of
a
mother
who
must
somehow
save
her
child,
Nayan
proves
that
she
is
a
great
actress
everywhere.
So
the
record
for
a
“Non-Interval
Film”
in
Kollywood
is
still
on
!
As
#Connect
team
agrees
to
pause
the
movie
after
1
hour
for
an
interval
point.
Even
though
Vinay
liked
the
scenes
very
little,
he
stands
in
the
mind.
His
dialogues
and
pronunciation
gives
goosebumps.
Sathyaraj
as
Nayan's
father.
His
pity
for
his
granddaughter
and
his
efforts
to
save
her
make
us
sympathetic
to
the
character
he
has
adopted.
Anupam
Kher
who
plays
the
priest
has
given
a
mature
performance.
Director
Ashwin
Saravanan
has
tried
to
give
the
thrilling
experience
he
gave
in
films
like
Maya
and
Game
Over.
The
work
he
did
in
the
screenplay
to
present
the
ghost
to
the
audience
makes
our
heart
skip
a
beat.
The
most
important
part
of
the
film
is
the
cinematography
and
background
music
of
the
film.
Dear
@Rowdy_Pictures
-
This
is
world
class
production
.
#Connect
is
going
to
connect
world
wide
and
will
bring
unexpected
revenue
!
Keeping
the
video
call
camera
as
the
key
idea,
the
magic
that
Manikandan
Krishnamachari
has
done
in
his
camera
is
terrific.
Prithvi
Chandrasekhar
gives
amazing
background
scores
with
his
music.
Similarly,
Anuvardhan's
costumes
also
impress
the
audience.
#Connect
-
Technically
strong
and
the
premise
of
setting
horror
during
Lockdown
deserves
appreciation.
#Sathyaraj
&
#AnupamKher
are
show
stealers.
Casting
is
perfect.
The
sequences
will
loudly
remind
us
off
various
horror
flicks
(cliched),
but
jumpscares
&
sound
will
impress
u.

Though
everything
is
perfect,
since
the
film
takes
place
in
the
corona
era,
we
couldn't
relate
to
the
film
as
we
already
came
far
away
from
the
fear
that
corona
gave
us.
It
made
us
think
that
the
film
should
be
released
at
least
a
year
ago.
This
review
is
based
on
the
preview
show
audience
response
only.
Let's
wait
and
watch
the
public
review
for
Connect
after
the
worldwide
release
on
December
22,
2022.
#Connect
is
a
movie
for
people
like
me
for
who
are
shit
scared
of
horror-thriller
genre
yet
we
watch
it.
It’s
a
simple
story,
well
directed
by
@Ashwin_saravana
who
knows
to
place
the
jump-scares
well.
Technically
it
was
a
brilliant
film.
If
they
had
worked
on
the
writing
it
had
