Theri

I have seen theri without any over expectations and fully satisfied after the film completed. It was completely an ilayathalapathy show. Yes, it is a routine revenge drama and and has a predictable story line.But here atlee overcomes this problem with his fast screenplay and visuals.Bgm is just about stunning...but songs are average. But we can see a sankar touch in those songs..! Some scenes are exceptional like when Vijay crying by holding the hands of a rape victim , interval sequence ,Vijay s re entry in police station. And father daughter sequences are very cute..! Performancewise Vijay is the soul of the movie..his screen presence and charisma is enormous..! He looks stunning like never before. He does what he is at best, and here we can see how matured he become as an actor..Samantha is OK, but Amy Jackson looks like a misfit in this role with her funny wig. Mahendran as a charming villain is impressive. And rest of the cast Motta rajendran, radhika sarathkumar..all supported well. But the real show stealer here after Vijay is baby nainika...she was so cute and adorable on screen and in first 10 minutes she literally equals thalapathy. Overall it is a neatly packed entertainer for ilayathalapathy fans and i am sure it will be liked by common audience too..! Don't miss it..it will be a gud treat..!

Two things are clearly evident from the film : 1. Atlee lacks originality 2. Vijay's screen presence can save any film.

To start with the film is highly predictable and with an old beaten to death story the film still manages you show some care for the film due to the tight screenplay and Vijay's screen presence. Starting from the first Baasha like scene to the end each and every scene reminds you the scene from another film and Atlee seems to have raid on this factor.

After doing some experimental film like Puli which turned out to be a disaster doing some commercial film is the safe bet for Vijay and lets let it go.

Nainika and Vijay's chemistry as daughter and father being so adorable both ladies and kids may enjoy this film.

Theri lives up to the promise and delivers the goods as a racy emotional action entertainer. While reviewing Vijay films one has to compare it with the actor's previous films and this one is sure going to directly appeal to the masses. It is a crowd-pleaser , Thanks to its slick presentation Atlee has a cleverly crafted a predictable story which plays to the galleries. However it is Vijay's outstanding charisma and performance in two different characters that makes the film a superior commercial cinema. We are introduced to the small world of Joseph Kuruvila (Vijay), and his daughter Nivi (Nainika) who lives somewhere in Kerala (Goa locations are matched well to make it look like Kerala). Annie (Amy Jackson) is teacher at school and she has a crush on Joseph. All is well till a small accident leads to a series of events thereby we get to know about Joseph's past. He is Vijaykumar IPS an upright police officer who locks horn with a local politician (Mahendran) whose son commits a heinous crime. On the downside, Theri is exaggerated and formulaic, but relies squarely on the charm of its leading man to pull off its over-the-top tone. But that's all part of the design. Atlee has borrowed the plot and inevitably comparisons can be drawn with Vijaykanth's 1990 hit Chatriyan. Vijay's scorching screen- presence and his infectious energy is the highlight. Nainika is super cute. Samantha in a clichéd role as Vijay's lover and wife who gets killed gets her fair share of screen time. But same cannot be said about Amy who not only looks uncomfortable in that funny wig but has nothing much to do. Mahendran is classy while Radhika Sarathkumar as the super cool mom is impressive. Technically George C. Williams camera is good and Ruben's editing is sharp. GV Prakash scores with his 50th album especially bgm is really good , as all the songs are hummable while our pick is En Jeevan which is melodious. On the whole, Theri is strictly escapist fun satisfying Vijay masala entertainer. Verdict : A Must Watch Masala Entertainer

Vijay back with a bang Theri is fully a commercial movie which all kind of audience can enjoy.Apart from the normal storyline everything in the movie is refreshing.The visuals of every songs are amazing.The camera work by George is top notch.The screenplay is brilliant as the movie is a racy action packed movie.GvPrakash has gives us a super bgm & music all through out the movie Apart from all these technical aspects Vijay has given his carrer's best performance.Samantha & Amy has done a good job.Nainika is the biggest plus of the movie.Dir Mahendra is just killing in his debut movie as villain.Motta rajendran & Prabhu as supporting artist plays a clean role.
