I was actually excited when i first saw the earlier teasers. Sadly its let down by poor writing and bad direction. It ends up being a stereotypical action revenge masala movie. It feels like something that would have released in the early 00s. Jayam Ravi and Keerthy Suresh are sadly wasted on this terrible script . Keerthy was miscast as. Inspector Nandhini.
Her character is not a believable as a cop and just comes off as a angry dumb cop. Also how old is Thiligan supposed to be even with the make up and hair dye Jayam looks too young to be a father to a pre-teen daughter.
The daughter barely gets any character development. She just comes off as a mean brat who hates her dad stupidly not knowing the truth. The wife's character was also poorly written . Were supposed to feel bad for but end up feeling nothing due to writing. The only personality she has is being mute and deaf. Both her and the daughter just exist as plot devices to give the reason for why Thiligan commits the murders.
It does have some tense moments but it let down by garbage writing and does nothing new in the revenge action thriller genre. With good direction and writing this could have been amazing. It seem like Jayam has been doing a lot of mediocre movies lately.
Other than Ponniyin Selvan movies he hasn't had much success. He needs to choose better scripts and directors to work with . Hes proven before hes a great actor with the right script.
Hes shown it with Thani Oruvan and Nimirndhu Nil , Adanga Maru that he can do action thriller roles. He's entertaining to watch with the right movie . I hope he can get out of this career slump . I can't recommend this movie . I had force myself to finish it was very boring at times and once the action picks up by 2nd half it doesn't improve. I hope the upcoming thriller Thani Oruvan 2 is as good as the original . 4/10 don't waste your time with this one.
