Strengths
Arun Vijay is given his best and 100% to his cab driver character..he shines well in the romance sequences ..as well as stunts.. hard work is well seen in the screen..dances like darling, performs better and looks dignified..don't know why this actor is still behind the race...Mamta role is tailor made romance sweet heart but has good space to score in romance department and she delivers it neat and tidy..both the villians looks terror and Vamshi is cool.. Rakul Preeti in a cameo is okay....rest of the cast including friends and right hand Dada of Maha looks good.
It is the screenplay which sets the fire..suspense element is maintained till the climax who killed Maha.It is Maghzil great success , where he keeps audience doubting whether it Selva, Dada right hand, ....all the characters forms the grey shade on killing..even the incidents and place keeps you think about the mystery...Next biggest plus is the Anal Arasu stunts..a small story running behind each fights and dusty places...are good....some hits are like bang in our head..kudos to the narrow street fight...he excels in imaginative choreography...Thamans songs are good ..he shines better in the BG which sets the action tempo...Editing is racy, and Sukumar's Photography is a tonic and toned well..only two songs...keeps the pace of movie alive
Weakness
The movie doesn't have solid story..it doesn't travel in a path..it juggles from scene to scene..Lot of characters are not detailed.like Rahul Preeti, Dada , Maha and Vamsi character..though the love scenes between lead pair is realism and imaginative..the underwear scenes and few..disgusting....no clear objective..why this ? why not that? Q strikes audience mind...Violence and blood is more which is alien for the family audience
Magzhil wants to film a stylish action movie.he succeeds ..to half way..without the impact of the story
Verdict:5/10( 1 for Arun vijay, 1 for overall performance, 1 for Stunts, 1 for screenplay and 1 for music)
Movie canvas Punch: Thadaiyara Thaakka...thrilling action well said......
