Siren

"Siren 108," directed by Antony Bhagyaraj, is a Tamil action thriller that centers on Thilagan, an honest ambulance driver in Kanchipuram, who is wrongfully convicted of murdering his wife, Jennifer, and his friend Kathir. After spending 14 years in prison, Thilagan is granted parole for 14 days, during which he seeks revenge against Anbazhagan and DSP S. Nagalingam for the deaths of Jennifer and Kathir, and attempts to reconcile with his daughter, Malar, who harbors resentment towards him for his alleged crimes.

Jayam Ravi delivers a compelling performance as Thilagavarman, showcasing both his veteran acting skills and emotional depth, which effectively garners viewer support for his character. Keerthy Suresh's portrayal of Inspector K. Nandhini, while competent, occasionally veers into overacting, and her character lacks the depth and backstory needed to fully engage the audience. Yogi Babu provides comic relief as Velankanni, although his role feels somewhat underutilized in the overall narrative.

The film's pacing is a bit slow at the start, with the true motives and backstory unfolding more prominently in the second half. However, once the action kicks in, the stylized sequences, sound effects, and musical score enhance the viewing experience.

Samuthirakani delivers a solid performance as DSP S. Nagalingam, although his character feels somewhat familiar due to similarities with his previous roles. Ajay as Anbazhagan serves as a convincing antagonist, adding tension and conflict to the story.

Yuvina Parthavi impresses in her limited role as Malar, Thilagan's daughter, bringing depth and emotion to the character. However, the film could have benefited from further exploration of her character's arc and involvement in the plot.

Overall, "Siren 108" succeeds as a weekend masala movie, offering gripping action and entertainment for audiences. While it has its flaws, particularly in character development and pacing, it remains an enjoyable watch for fans of the genre.

I saw movie in hindi version... movie is average nothing new to offer.. movie started with prisoner in jail for more than 10 year suddenly get parole and movie goes in action drama...no depth in other characters..main actor has delivered decent performance but other has not much scope.. story line is very predictable.. action scenes are good... emotional angle between father and daughter has decent impact on movie....you have seen so many revange movie on this plot.. either you can see movie for light entertainment or for actor's..you can easily skip this movie...there is little comedy and no vulgar scene..

One of the song lyrics brings back the colonial mindset & apologetic nature of minority following crowd. While the direction focussed on pleasing a specific subset of the population , enforcing the evils of caste, creed & religion, it forgot to look at its own.

Overall Jayam Ravi is betting his career on such movies that will drag him down and leave him as a clown who could not see where he was being dragged to. Storyline and screenplay was a slow drag, neither action nor dialogues have made a mark, the repetitive mention of word caste shows the sad ignorant state of the group that worked on this movie.

Because,.. I went to a cineplex to watch another film, but couldn't get a show. So, we watched this movie. There was no expectations but somehow it felt engaging and the show was good.

Yogi Babu made the movie more watchable with his comical presence. Keerthy Suresh had a good cop role who could actually use her brain well, but she too faces typical Indian women situation as seniors do not listen to her much.

Anupama was beautiful to watch so was Yuvitha. Both of them have a great career to follow.

Overall the movie is not boring to watch. There is some level of suspense and thankfully no unwanted action sequences.

Basically, the roles of but with a better storyline but still there is a correlation with the main part,, of course with 2 artists not mentioned above as irreplaceable actors,, I personally like Kirty Shuresh's acting..., Keerthy Suresh, liven up the storyline of this 2024 Siren film. The plot twist is not bad. Even though he succeeded in getting his revenge, the actor was still sentenced to prison for who knows how long. I hope there will still be a part 2 for this film. But with a better storyline but still there is a correlation with the main part,, of course with 2 artists not mentioned above as irreplaceable actors,, I personally like Kirty Shuresh's acting... , greetings from Indonesia - jaff XRP.
