Mass movie with a message
Edharkum Thuninthavan
– Review
Suriya is an advocate who lives in Thennadu with his parents. There is a long conflict between Thennadu and Vadanaadu.
Vinay is a powerful person in Vadanaadu. A few girls from Thennadu are either killed or committ suicide. Suriya sets to find the truth behind these suspicious deaths.
What lead to the death of these girls. How is Vinay connected to this. Was Suriya able to find the reason behind the deaths forms the rest of the story.
Suriya is a back in a complete commerical entertainer. There is humour, sentiment, action and punch dialogues. His performances during the stunt sequences are good.
Priyanka Arul Mohan gets to play the typical heroine ina commercial film. She is impressive in her role. Vinay is apt as the stylish villain and his calm demeanour adds more weightage to the character. Rest of the cast including Sathyaraj, Saranya Ponvannan, Soori and Pugazh have all done their part well.
Director Pandiraj has made the story based on the sexual violence that women face in the society. He has inculcated some real life incidents to make the movie more authentic.
D Imman’s songs are good. The BGM elevates every scene especially the action sequences. Rathnavelu’s camerwork is appreciable. Templated story is a letdown however.
Rating: 4/5
