Thambi

Acting on the part of everyone except for Sathyaraj are mediocre... The music is dull and the background score leaves a lot to be desired. The direction and editing is a bit messy as well and there are gaps and goof-ups that a good writer or director would have corrected... But, the movie works and keeps you engaged purely for its story line .. and when a movie comes under the banner of being a thriller and is able to throw a twist that most people would not have expected, then it surely does succeed to some extent :) Decent watch.

" Thambi" Tamil movie.

Mystery thriller with an extra dose of sentiments.

MLA living with his wife and daughter, searching his son, who had disappeared, 15 years ago. A con man, from Goa, comes into the scene as his son, bringing happiness and brightness in that family.

Story unfolds in first half, mostly as drama genre movie, to take us to an unexpected interval with a chilling suspense. Second half is in tune with thriller, with overtones of sentiments.

Story and screenplay carefully crafted well and director Jeethu Joseph has presented well, yet another thriller. Compared to his previous outings like 'Memories', 'Drishyam' ...this thriller is not that intense.

And these kinda story, we had seen in movies like 'Charithram' 1989 Malayalam, 'Imposter' 2012 English.... So this movie storyline maybe inspired or plagerized from the references.

Camera work is superb to keep the suspense and tension intact.

7 on 10 for this dragging thriller lasting 2 hours and 30 minutes.

Karthi as the con man and Sathyaraj as the MLA, shone well in their respective performances.

Well knitted presentation with unexpected twists and turns to keep the audience, guessing who is hero and villains are.

Safe watch

The first half of the movie is so average and gave a feel like below average movie but, after interval block it had totally changed because of the superb twists and turns. Karthi,Sathyaraj and jo had given a decent and beautiful role in this film.One time watchable,book the tickets and go and watch with your family

The plot and the presentation is very good though the unfolding of the plot is rushed through. Director has ensured to keep the audience engaged and it's worth watching

Good movie... twist and thrill ! Feel the Drishyam in the movie.... recommended to watch!!! Rating 7.5 to 8...!
