Thani Oruvan

Minimally the movie is a must watch experience for all class cinema lovers.Thriller,Action,Some piece of Social message.

The movie has quite good characterization from the 1st level characters to the final level supporting characters are perfectly and beautifully mannered.

Aravind Swamy portrays the villain character as 'Never before in Kollywood'.From his mannerism,body language,attitude he has shown much of evilness more than hat of the script wanted which suits the character perfectly.

My favorite scene of the movie would be the pre-climax sequence where Siddarth Abimanyu (Character) hears to his father's words,The scene in the investigation room.

The movie totally emphasizes our Indian society and a battle of a 'Single Man'(Thani Oruvan) who want to protect the society and a 'Single Man' Who knows only about 'Money'

However, you have shown interest in the screenplay.The message of the movie will catch you surely! Go for it!

There is no speed breaker & a perfect song placement The Villain's character is well designed and more special from other negative characters of Kollywood Cinema.This movie is totally different from M.Raja's earlier movies.Unexpected turnings and easily catch-able screenplay.The best movie of this kind "GOOD vs EVIL".You'll have no reason to hate this film.

This movie is a 'Gem Of Tamil Cinema'. Must watch movie for all movie lovers.Don't Miss this Roller Coaster Ride :)

A well enacted thriller with a racy screen play portrays the war between the good and the bad (evil). Jayam Ravi's brother Director M.Raja has given so many hits but most of them would be remakes of success films in Telugu. This time he has took quite time to pen his story and screenplay after his last venture Velayudham starting Vijay which has worked quite well even though the basic concept is the same cat and mouse game. Corruption, Corporate mafia, underworld, Pharmaceutical Company's illegal research, Goons, Strict and straight forward IAS, IPS officers working with anti corruption motto, realistic fight with corporate Dons, A Solo Hero with a vision and a supportive lead lady some of the keywords that can describe this movie's plot. The ultimate show stopper of the movie was the performance of the antagonist played by none other than the yester year's charming hero Aravind Samy. He plays Siddharth Abimanyu a suave middle aged notorious scientist and has lifted the role to a different level with his charisma in a sophisticated set up. His comeback as a good hearted priest didn't work out in Kadal but sure this negative role will be a break through character in his career. Mithran (essayed by Jayam ravi ) is the best cop ever who shadows his aim case and moves exactly with his supporting team of friends. Mahima (played by the beautiful dusky Nayantara) who is head over heels with Mithran supports him with her skills. The overall love sequences seemed sensible and mature didn't bore us with instant dream sequences except the one and only song which was bearable. Other than these leads we have Nasser, Thambi Rammaiah (don't know how many movies he will play the same innocent character with the same tone), Vamsi Krishna, Ganesh Venkat Ram, Jay Prakash, Mugdha Godse (of the Hindi movie Fashion fame). On the technical bit like cinematography, editing, BGM, Arts was in place and gave what was needed for a script like this. Except a bit on editing would have made it look perfect. At times it would make you feel and compare portions with Kakha kakha and similar cop movie series, plus Ramana, Nimirndhu nil, E, Thupakki etc Verdict: A good thriller with an over shadowed antagonist which is the current trend where villain takes over easily.

Go and watch this in theater. Mohan Raja made Tamil movies one step higher. All the characters have done their best. Jayam Ravi catches all the people's attention in each and every second of the movie. Nayanthara's best movie I can say. She did a wonderful acting. Each and every second of the movie went thrilling and I sat on the edge of the seat while watching. Villain was amazing. BOSS OF THE OTHER VILLAINS IN TAMIL CINEMA. Only few comedies but nice one. Don't miss it.You can watch this movie more than 10 times. It is also the best police based movie. There are so many amazing twists in the movie. Best movie of the decade.

Cent percent worth the expectations,Mohan Raja's Thani Oruvan puts an end to the long wait for a neat thriller from Kollywood and delivers two memorable characters Mithran I.PS and Siddharth Abhimanyu,portrayed by Jayam Ravi and Arvind Swami respectively.

A brilliantly crafted thriller with intelligent screenplay and terrific narration,Thani Ourvan is a delightful original offering from Raja who's know for remaking successful films from other languages down south.The screenplay by director himself and the writer duo Subha framed upon the cat and mouse chase between protagonist and the villain is immensely stylish and substantial,being successful in gaining attention of the viewers who gets to be a part of the proceedings.

There isn't a single dull moment in around 160 minutes of the running time and leaving aside some minor glitches,Thani Oruvan stands out as one of the best thrillers ever produced in Kollywood for its racy script,powerful and meaningful dialogues,lack of unwanted elements aimed at masses,the brilliant performances and strong technical perfection.Unlike many thrillers produced in the recent past,the romance portions were well-written and Raja deserves a special applause for handling it convincingly so that it never turn a stumbling block in the thrills offered by the enthralling fight between the hero and the villain.

Jayam Ravi has comeup with a top-notch performance as the protagonist Mithran IPS and showcases his mettle in handling intense roles with ease.Expecting more such roles from him rather than disappointing ones like Shakti from 'Sakalakala Vallavan Appatakkar'. Casting Aravind Swami as the suave,intelligent and cool antagonist worked out wonders and he stole the show with his matured act.Arvind's character Siddharth Abhimanyu will be long-remembered as one of the best villainous portrayals in the history of tamil film industry.Welcome Back Swami!! Choose Wisely and you are here to stay !! <3 Thambi Ramaiah managed to evoke laughs with his hilarious portrayal of Sengalvarayan.Nayan Thara as the heroine was convincing in a neatly written role and pulled off her part really well.The supporting cast that includes Rahul Madhav,Ganesh Venkatraman etc were good.

Music and score by Hip-Hop Tamizha were effective and gave more depth to the narration.All the songs were perfectly placed and avoiding unnecessary item songs and other unwanted numbers proved good for tightening the screenplay.Frames by Rajaji were slick and cuts by Gopi Krishna were neat.

Overall,Thani Oruvan is a stylish and captivating thriller,a must watch this season.

Verdict:: Mind-blowing performances from Jayam Ravi and Arvind Swami backed up with a taut screenplay,technical brilliance,powerful dialogues and and an energetic score makes Thani Oruvan an easy addition to the list of best thrillers to come-out from Kollywood till date.Don't miss this one from theatres,Period!! Un Yedhiri Yaar Endru Sol..Nee Yaar Endru Solgiren B-)

Excellent movie. Enjoyed the thriller and saw a very good tamil film after a long time...Great acting by Arvind and Ravi...Credit should be given to director Raja..Good concept and well narrated with no deviation..Raja should continue to do straight films, even if it takes a year.

Talking of music, just loved "kaadhal cricket" song and the awesome voice of the singer. The last song was also good and peppy. Hope this will change the attitude of most of the tamil directors, as long as the story is good and well narrated, it will be a big hit. This also proves, a movie with unrealistic scenes and characters can be successful and in fact hugely successful movie. Big kudos to the entire Thani Oruvan team. All the best..
