Siren

An action thriller movie with popular leads is certainly a factor that can allure viewers. This movie is about a convict, Thilakan, who is out on parole to avenge his wife's death by going on a killing spree. A defamed lady cop is in charge of the case, and she must nab the criminal before it's too late.

The plot setting is nice, featuring not only thrill and action elements but also themes of family values, a father yearning for his daughter's love, and an emotional husband. These aspects ground the story and make viewers more invested in the characters. The biggest flaw with the movie is the portrayal of the lady cop as a buffoon. Despite being depicted as a smart and honest officer, she can't crack the case or do much of anything. The criminal is shown to be far superior, achieving whatever he seeks. There should have been a balance between the characters.

Jayam Ravi, playing the roles of a father, husband, son, and death god for his enemies, performs earnestly. His character transition from a young age to old is apparent in his appearance, but the nuanced differences required for such a transition are missing. Keerthy Suresh, as the honest officer, plays her part well, but the story lets her down as she has little to perform. Samuthirakani, in a negative role, plays his part decently. Tulasi is brilliant in her portrayal of the mother, and you will definitely relate to her. Anupama Parameswaran, in a cameo, is decent.

The movie has its highs in terms of how Thilakan finds ways to kill his enemies, maintaining intrigue about his next step. However, the songs are mediocre and merely add to the length. The action sequences could have been much better and do not do justice to the movie.

With more substance given to the lady cop and more nail-biting moments, it could have been a 10 out of 10. Nevertheless, it is a decent thriller that can be watched with family. #pranureviews #Siren108 #Siren108Review.

The theme of the movie is very nice and the director Antony Bhagyaraj did his best.

It's an action oriented crime thriller. The BGM, Music and camera was also upto the mark. Mr. Thilagan an Ambulance driver in a village tunred to be a murder and waiting to take revenge but it took 14 years.

Sorry to say the casting was not proper. All the male actors are did their best but the heroine Keerti was very boring. She just have one emotion in her face. Someone must tell her its the role of a police officer and the role requires some hardwork. The police uniform doesn't fit for her.

The comdey scenes of Yogi and Ravi combo was nice. The songs were unnecessary. The fight scenes are just average. As per my opinion it is just a one time watch. But don't expect like Thani Oruvan..

"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.

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.

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.
