This movie really needs your patience ; dramatically suspense and thriller is pretty and cinematography is good as whole movie rounds around a hotel.
This is based on the French movie called Nuit Blanche. Don't want to summarize the story so that I don't give anything away, but the production is well done that actually makes this look more "international". The director keeps the pace moving well, and the actors deliver good performances. There are several twists and turns that will keep you interested. However, there are some parts which are kind of silly which makes you roll your eyes. But overall, it is a good movie to watch and would recommend.
Thoongaavanam.... What to say about this film.. This is not just a film.. It is a course for young directors how Indian films should be.. No actor dares to act in Indian film without songs.. Ulaga Nayagan already acted thrice in films which doesn't contain songs are Pesum padam, Kuruthipunal, a man like you and now for the fourth time in Thoongaa vanam. Mass actor with class skills will be always one and only kamal hassan. And once again it is proved in this film. A strong crew consisting Prakash Raj, Kishore, Sampath, Trisha Krishnan, Aasha Sharath enough to make audience to go to this film.. But the bgm score which is the vital role of this film made it to the core.. Action sequences doesn't look like Indian way in which a hero will fought with 100 fighters, flying scenes, etc etc. Excellent stunt choreography made this film an action pack thriller.. An authentic story, screenplay, acting from the team. But Kamal Hasaan the man who stole the show with his marana mass acting.. Trisha, Prakash Raj, Kishore did enough what the film wants. The credits song after the film got over was the real suspense to the audience, unexpected. Very well planned screenplay made it like a kuruthipunal, vikram, vetri vizha which even after 20 years will be fresh for the cinema lovers... Everyone must go and watch in the theaters.. Thoongaavanam- a new path for Indian film makers.
It is very good movie that is really 2 hours story the director was take it in 2 hours very good directing
I already saw the Sleepless Nights and still went into the movie to see how far they have remade it. I wasn't disappointed. It was a very sincere remake and we could see the effort they have done to pull this off within some 40 odd days. Hats off! Going into the review now.
It was a very smart move to handle this script as it is something rare in Tamizh cinema - events unfolding within a day. So, the casting has to be really really good to make this one a decent picture. The casting is the real strength of this movie. Right from big roles to small characters, the casting was very good. This makes the movie half job done!
Ghibran is the next half job. BGM was a major plus without which the movie would've been a dragging one. His music will keep you engaged all the time.
Screenplay has been adjusted a little here and there which turned out to be pretty successful in adapting to the taste of our audience.
I personally watched out for the stunt sequences as I was really impressed with the original. This hasn't impressed me and didn't disappoint me either.
Kamal Haasan is the stand out performer - once again! Watch out for him.
Trumcard lies with Ghibran who used it perfectly.
Rating - 7.25/10. If not for the final scene of the movie - 7.5/10
