The film marks the acting debut of Lokesh, but the movie buffs believe he is an experienced actor, calling his performance "impressive".
Netizens are 'loving' DC
Soon after the movie buffs watched the early show, they took X by storm, penning their review. A user wrote, "DAMN. What a mad first half #DC. Every department is killing it so far."
Another wrote, "#DC Review – A Cinematic Triumph! #DC is commercial cinema at its absolute finest—raw, fearless, emotionally powerful, and relentlessly engaging. Every frame carries purpose, every major block delivers, and the screenplay keeps raising the stakes. Lokesh Kanagaraj is sensational as Das, Wamiqa Gabbi leaves a lasting impact, and Anirudh is the soul of the film with a thunderous score that lifts every scene. Arun Matheswaran delivers a knockout. If films like Visaranai, Vada Chennai, and Viduthalai are your kind of cinema, #DC is an absolute must-watch. One of those rare films that reminds you why the theatrical experience is irreplaceable."
"It's been a long time since I watched a truly intense action drama. DC fills that void in style.This is what you call a peak cinematic experience. Director #ArunMatheswaran keeps you on the edge of your seat from the very first scene until the climax.The story itself isn't something new. We've seen similar setups before, a gangster who stands against society and a girl betrayed by the very society she trusted," a user wrote.
"Every frame in this movie speaks emotions with depth..! This is filmmaking at its finest from Arun Matheswaran and Lokesh Kanagaraj, we don't know that you are such a brilliant actor. Kudos," a fan wrote.
"#DC 1st Half : Trippy.. Bloodbath.. A violent action ride.. Going good so far.. @Dir_Lokesh doesn't look like his acting debut.. Done a neat job.." a user wrote.
