The day 24th November 2023 didn't finished for many GVM fans, but sad to see GVM promoting DD's connect with Joshua and DN without any previous story telling to create a hype it's not GVM way just doing what others did for promotions, and also running with a bare foot was not big sacrifice GVM bring expressions on face was big thing for him,once someone said promoting a bad film was a worst thing ever but GVM did this , the film should speak for shots, moments, music, actors but not for it's delay ,songs except Naan un Joshua song any other songs didn't worked out for "me", Naan un Joshua song can't be enjoy randomly singing because the people named can only do these but GVM tells oh it was for the character even though karka karka and Maddy Maddy songs was solemnly for characters but enjoying still, the movie fails in the impact creating on characters, ok it's GVM universe but there should be a feeling between the characters and audience and any relatable things to feel joshua should save kundhavi, but who she what she did can't be explained by few foreign drug cartel dialogue. Krishna character was still standing in the 1st draft of the script , bond between Joshua and Krishna not well defined so the reunion scene was not impactfull GVM has many debts and restless for DN But before 24th Nov there was a question on chiyaan not being responsible for his long pending project to release but at this point, asking that to Vikram is questionable, the trailer cut was amazing for DN and songs too mainly oru manam and his name is John , but to release that now was not the right time, GVM has many better scripts he was a good creator, by vtk he also broke his usual story telling, he need to do big films with big star cast with good scripts may be after those DN release will get a hype but now it is not the right time ,if it is released now what GVM will do for promotions, again and again making interviews in YouTube with same minnale story, kamal Hassan intro scene , varanam ayiram story by mine, kakha kakha suriya fell without stunt double, simbu was comfortable actor, we don't need these stuff GVM, praising those movies was a fan 's part , please GVM do good movies like yours, And again GVM was good creator but not a good producer (not to hate, judge) the prev incidents shows that naragasuran with karthick naren, Harris issue in varanam ayiram , enpt and acham yen bathu was known by all, GVM movies should speak for it's cinema not for its pre release issue like yennai aarindhaal , varanam ayiram, vettaiyadu Velaiyadu , vtk, vtv. The "director GVM" is needed. Still gvm has many good scripts (thuppariyum anand, suraagani, Chennaiyil oru mazhai kaalam) he can do, GVM please do good cinema.

GVM is a brand in Tamil cinema and his films have always been in limelight at times of release & indeed a notable filmaker of our times...This project was designed way back a few years for Thalapathy Vijay as "YOHAN" giving a "BOND" texture for Tamil cinema after a long time... Action films aren't new to him but this kind of a "Bond" film is a fresh attempt. Just like in the Bond movies you get the name Bond repeatedly heard, here the name Joshua keeps ringing all the time... The romance fizzles out as soon as it begins and it gets reignited too without any spark. GVM who has masterd with romance scores a zero here...What is amusing is the fact that there are so many action blocks that get underappreciated for its illogical writing... Varun does well in action scenes, but then falters when it comes to emotions & performance...Raahei looks confused most of the times and her part is just a running woman behind Varun... Krishna is good in a short role & DD does a decent job... SR. Kathir's cinematography works in parts. Background score by Karthik is effective and the songs though decent do not work on the screen... Overall JOSHUA is a better package for action lovers & arguably far better than "ENNAI NOKI PAUUM THOTA" & "ACHAM YENBADHU MADAMAIDA"

If you want to see John Wick and Bodyguard in one film, then Joshua is your film. Joshua: directed by Gautham Vasudev Menon, who has delivered hits like Kaakha Kaakha, Yennai Arindhaal, Vettaiyaadu Vilayaadu, has directed this action flick. The storyline is packed with slick and realism action scenes and plot is a mix of films like Bodyguard and John Wick. The action scenes were choreographed well. Varun has done a good job in acting and action scenes, but his characterization should have been better. Raahei is also good in her role. DD's role would have been like Angelina Jolie's role in Wanted, but couldn't. However, her performance is decent. The other actors have done well in their roles. Yannick Ben, the unsung hero of the film, has delivered well-choreographed slick action scenes. Some scenes were reminded of John Wick. Cinematography and editing were top notch. Music was decent and the bgm was superb. GVM has done a good job, but the romance track between the lead pair should have been written better as the romantic track in Kaakha Kaakha was one of the best in GVM's films. Dialogues were somewhat ok and cringy. If romance track and dialogues were written well, then this would have been sure-shot success at the box office. Overall, Joshua is worth a watch for the action scenes. Don't expect any story from GVM as the plot is wafer-thin and has only action. Watch it on Amazon Prime Video for an action packed summer.

Despite its intriguing premise, the film fails to live up to expectations due to poor direction and uninspired writing. While the action scenes are commendably choreographed and the experimental music by Karthick adds some flavor, the film struggles to engage viewers beyond these moments. Krishna Kulasekharan delivers a standout performance, bringing depth to his character and serving as a saving grace amidst the film's shortcomings. However, the rest of the cast falls short, lacking the necessary acting prowess to elevate the material. Director GVM's simplistic and stale writing results in a lackluster narrative that fails to captivate. The film's pacing suffers, particularly during conversational scenes where the dialogue fails to spark interest. Despite attempts to emulate the success of "John Wick" with a Desi twist, "Lost Potential" ultimately falls flat. While it may appeal to fans of action-packed sequences, its overall execution leaves much to be desired. Viewers are advised to approach with tempered expectations and to focus on the few positives the film has to offer.

Didn't watch a film such this film authentic since it reminded me Tamil version of Jones Wicks though it met 100%. The action of Varun is worth to be appreciated for it is pettish triumph to Hollywood Cultured action movie. Exaggeration is neglected through out the film.love affairs and romantic scenes in the manner of Hollywood which I truly expect in the movies. John wicks thriller movie of killing with gun but this film slightly followed the steps of Jone Wicks with Tamil conversation fights scenery.behind the antagonist secrecy is induced towards climax. Finally shocked climax is that her own father is the villain of the born child.

A contract killer turned bodyguard trying to protect his love interest from international bad elements. Though the movie had considerable budget, the execution was terrible. Listing them in points: 1. Acting was horrible, especially of Varun's. There was no expression at all, with so much stunt training going on, I think he skipped basic acting lessons. 2. The movie is basically a copy of Hitman's bodyguard, Bodyguard series (Netflix), John Wick, Bourne and 100 other movies. Just made with low quality. 3. GVM, in the name of so called "classy movie" has made this movie with cringe filled redundant scenes. The generous use of "English" in his movie doesn't mean it's synonymous to international standards or quality. One easily gets distracted from a scene in just a couple of minutes. 4. Lot of logic loopholes with forced and predictable scenes. In fact a movie need not have a well defined good story, even a simple story could be well executed in a good way through screenplay, cinematography and dialogues but this movie didn't have any of those things At the end it is just an action movie overshadowed by terrible acting and poor story. Watch if you don't want to use your brain much.

"Joshua," helmed by Director Gvm, is a colossal disappointment that squandered two hours of my life. The film is a relentless barrage of mindless fights from start to finish, with the lead actor's exaggerated and cringe-worthy overacting dominating every scene. His forced intensity and melodramatic expressions made me wish I had opted for a wrestling match with guns instead of enduring this shallow spectacle. Director Gvm's lack of storytelling depth or character development left me feeling empty and unsatisfied, as the film prioritized style over substance. Save yourself the trouble and steer clear of "Joshua."
