Pathu Thala

Crazy start of movie but failed to maintain the story in 2nd half,it's lagging ,surprised climax. Cinemotograpjy are good,all actors deserved by their performance.songs (raawadi) are unessential to the movie ,songs are ok but background score of Rahman sir is engaging to the movie. This movie not having a standard villian A perfect tribute to the original version of pathu thala(mufti) . A different kind of the gangster film. Once watchable. Must try well to the 2nd half (story) .it's just moving for character development of A. G. R(s.t.r) they had concentrated to the story development of pathu thala.

The role performed by STR is something that some elder actor must've done since it has such significance and requires someone at a superstar level to do this role but when STR does it, it just brings down the movie and doesn't add anything to the film at all. STR could be saved only if he comes down from the thinking that he's one of the biggest actors, IMO he's not even among the third-tier list of actors, his movies are talked about just because of his gossip, they run not for content but just for the gossip.

The Gautham Karthik role was an apt one and the overall plot though resembles the Pokiri movie, still works with decent characterisation and the evolution of the scenes as the film runs with a nice screenplay, this film probably would've given a break to the actors but I feel the spotlight was stolen by STR and not given to this actor, probably if the STR role would've been performed by someone like Rajkiran, then would've become a good one, yet it is still a one-time watchable one for sure.

Definitely one of the best political crime dramas we've ever witnessed!!

A bit of prolonged narrative, yet the screenplay assembles every string right into one place and delivers satisfiable amount of exciting & entertaining sequences throughout the runtime, And the entire setup for the main plot is wonderfully done... STR's character establishment and buildups by other actors throughout the first half stimulates the thrilling factor for audience!!

Furthermore, after the enthralling interval block the movie paces up in the second half and proceeds towards the main plot with uplifting conflict point!!

Simbu's Brother-Sister bond worked big time emotionally!!

And character progression among other lead roles is quite fascinating... Every production member that has involved gave their A-level contribution to the climax portion set!!

Pathu Thala- Rugged gangster movie with a classic take.

Hats off to the director Obeli Krishna who has penned every role with meticulous thinking and weighed them equally.

Content is rich and storytelling is on par, with politics as a background and a surprising foreground with subtle elements.

Gautam Karthik's smooth acting takes the first half with ease and lays the foundation. Silambarasan takes it over in the second half like a lion. His best role till date. He carries his role with sincerity and utmost maturity.

A. R. Rahman's music comes as a breathe of fresh air as he takes us to his magical best with BGM and few heart touching songs.

Don't miss this gem on Prime!

His on-screen presence is magnetic, and his performance elevates the overall film. The storyline, combined with the captivating visuals, keeps the audience hooked from start to finish.

This film exceeded expectations at so many levels (except for the last 2 mins of how the story ends)- story, plot twists, music (just got goosebumps with the bgm, it was so good), cinematography, casting and each of the actors trying to deliver their best performance.
