FIR

U are an engineer from IIT, leading a peaceful existence in Chennai. U frequently attend job interviews, yet u find it tough to secure gainful employment. Wherever u go, u are hounded by the same question: are u religious? But why should your religion matter so much? Why should u always be viewed with suspicion? The answer is obvious. Its all because your name is "Irfan Ahmed". Tamil movie #FIR is a decent thriller, with good performances by Vishnu Vishal, Manjima Mohan and Raiza Wilson. Running time should be reduced by 15 minutes. Rating 3/5.

Lacking originality - unfortunately.

Acting could have been much better!

Borrowed storylines from Homeland season 5 and Family Man season 1!

The only difference is the ending which is how is supposed to be!

Direction shows the inexperience but in comparison to some of the experienced directors' movies on terrorism, being a rookie he definitely stands out!

Overall it's an okay movie.

Storyline and screenplay of the movie is different and interesting and keeps the audience glued except for the last 30 minutes, which was very vague and too predictable, that period could have been better handled.

One question that keeps popping out throughout the movie is, why would religion matter in all the interviews that protagonist is attending, probably a better logical reason could have been given.

Acting and facial expressions of Vishnu Vishal & Gautam Menon are too good and they both steal the entire show.

Another great aspect of the movie is its Cinematography and some frames make the audience feel 'Wow'. One can also learn how not to come to conclusions about people just by looking at their name, complexion and other obvious things.

A breathe of fresh air among the recent flicks in regional films that stands tall & perhaps gonna be sleeper hit...A standing ovation for the overall film crews and is definitely a must see movie...with a neat script ,crisp editing and flawless screenplay u gonna feel guilty if u miss it or watch it in home screen...overall a rock solid theatre material.

Vishal has done a good job. His portrayal of a Muslim youngster convinces. The first half, some may get disappointed as I felt ans the second has the reason for that 1st half loosely knit storyline. Only after watching the reasons behind, the movie felt great. Good story and the 2nd half has the gist of the story. Definitely not a theater thriller; recommending u to watch in ott.
