Pathu Thala

Pathu Thala- Rugged gangster movie with a classic take.

Hats off to the director Obeli Krishna who has penned every role with meticulous thinking and weighed them equally.

Content is rich and storytelling is on par, with politics as a background and a surprising foreground with subtle elements.

Gautam Karthik's smooth acting takes the first half with ease and lays the foundation. Silambarasan takes it over in the second half like a lion. His best role till date. He carries his role with sincerity and utmost maturity.

A. R. Rahman's music comes as a breathe of fresh air as he takes us to his magical best with BGM and few heart touching songs.

Don't miss this gem on Prime!

Half baked Political Gangster Drama

Cliched gangster story , somehow they tried to give different treatment to it but failed in writing part . Inconsistent narration , mostly felt flat and lack of intriguing . Dialogues were poorly written and forced punch dialogues were totally odd . There were many characters but none of them were strong enough to shine , even AGR character . Even making was poor , scenes mostly lacked its continuity . Cast wise , Simbhu presence literally carried AGR and the whole movie , except few cast others did good job . Technical wise , cinematography was good , below average editing and poor dubbing . ARR's BGM and songs were mind blowing .

Overall , except for the Simbhu's screen presence and ARR's music movie had nothing much to deliver .

Crazy start of movie but failed to maintain the story in 2nd half,it's lagging ,surprised climax. Cinemotograpjy are good,all actors deserved by their performance.songs (raawadi) are unessential to the movie ,songs are ok but background score of Rahman sir is engaging to the movie. This movie not having a standard villian A perfect tribute to the original version of pathu thala(mufti) . A different kind of the gangster film. Once watchable. Must try well to the 2nd half (story) .it's just moving for character development of A. G. R(s.t.r) they had concentrated to the story development of pathu thala.

The first half of the movie was interesting and unique in its own way. Although Simbu did not show his face much in this part, it still had a significant impact.

However, the second half followed the usual clichés of Indian masala movies. Nevertheless, Simbu's decision to not have any particular heroine dance for him made the movie stand out from the typical masala movie fare.

As for the music, the legendary AR Rahman's BGM and tunes were impeccable, as expected from such an accomplished artist.

Gautam Menon has been recently showcasing his skills as a villain on screen, and it is quite fitting to his mannerisms. However, the movie as a whole can be classified as another Kollywood masala blockbuster.

A bit of prolonged narrative, yet the screenplay assembles every string right into one place and delivers satisfiable amount of exciting & entertaining sequences throughout the runtime, and the entire setup for the main plot is wonderfully done..

STR's character establishment and buildups by other actors throughout the first half stimulates the thrilling factor for audience!! His on-screen presence is magnetic, and his performance elevates the overall film. The storyline, combined with the captivating visuals, keeps the audience hooked from start to finish.

This film exceeded expectations at so many levels (except for the last 2 mins of how the story ends)- story, plot twists, music (just got goosebumps with the bgm, it was so good), cinematography, casting and each of the actors trying to deliver their best performance.
