Vendhu Thanindhathu Kaadu

RATED 7/10 Language: Tamil Media Partner: Amazon Prime Source: Nil

Different attempt from GVM and ARR. And the best ever performance from Simbu...his acting and body language perfectly fits to this role. The interval fight scene shows the full potential of simbu and ARR together, goosebumps guaranteed. The first half has engaged flow.

Because the story is age old one, the second half struggled bit. Other than main characters, others are shown in very high level. This also not helped for the second of twists. Even though the second half is jarred, it has quite good surprises here and there.

Instead of leading to second part, GVM should have closed this one like "Kaaka Kaaka". This second part lead also brings back the old Simbu and it looks totally disjointed The engaging first half and Simbu make this as watchable.

I watched this movie with subtitles since unfortunately it was not dubbed in hindi on prime but I completed it like I complete other South movies with subtitles if it has the content to hold your interest otherwise if not I switch off after twenty minutes or so because this is the time limit you usually need to understand if the movie is worth watching. This is first time I am watching the lead actor and actress and no doubt they did good job. The heroine does not have much screen space in first half but she is likeable with her good looks and sweet dimple. The direction is good, the set is well made, well shot and a complete entertainer.

Venthu Thanindhadhu Kaadu - Simbu has given his best performance in this movie. One can see only Muthu and not the star actor in any frame. The writing and cinematography are top notch with long one shot scenes at many places that does not distract the viewing experience.

The protagonist becomes a gangster by circumstances. And, it was convincing. The comparison with the Sreedhar character was new and refreshing in this gangster milieu. You know exactly what Muthu has lost and gained due to his choices. One man's choices and the universe decides your fate. This is one of the best Gautam Menon movies after ages.

This movie is very long in which first half is long but good screenplay! STR role in this movie is awesome...Str is a villager in tamilnadu and how he became a gangster in Mumbai is the moviee...str acting is Vera level(good)!1st half is slow but not boring...Second half is worth watching! Get enough sleep before watching this movie..Being a neutral fan I love this movie so much!songs are good and fight stunts are satisfactory... screenplay is not bad and a good plot which keep me engaged in this movie...I suggest you to watch the movie with no expectations! All characters are good in acting and twists are present in second half for sure...worth watching 👌👍

To be honest my expectations were pretty low before watching the movie Cause the press were continuously forcing Gautam to admit this isn't his sort of movie different from all his previous flicks Which I consider is utmost disrespect to Gautam Menon whom i consider one of the very few great directors in tamil cinema or Indian cinema too First half was very good and slowly takes you to the to the journey of Muthu and convince us with how the circumstances makes Muthu to take gun in his own hands and becomes a gangster The only thing I disliked were the climax potions where the movie fast forwards to 5 years and shows simbu kind of like a modern gangster Personally didnt like those portions, except that 10 mins movie was pure gold. Simbus acting was very good and he kind of pulled off Muthu gracefully And it is Gautam menons movie.
