Rathnam

Film is starting with usual way of story telling of Dir. Hari & Vishal. As expected it runs with same story line of typical vishal movie. Added few twists to show the story is different, but little engaging. Vishal is not improves, Heroine has some weights in her role, played well by PBS. Supporting role by Samuthrakani & the Villains roles are acceptable. No others scored well. All cinema one and only comedian Yogi Babu failed to deliver any notes, but Mottai Rajan collects few points. DSP music seems mixture of his own musics with few melodies from Rab Ne Bana Di Jodi. One song is in the latter part seems like a song. Stunts are visually engaging but same old stuffs.

Summary : One time watchable, if you are a fan of Hari / Vishal, That also in OTT.

The movie action was good but bit loud, Vishal's acting has taken a different turn and he does a. Good job, Priya takes the story together and she is doing good, the story is a good story some parts are predictable but if you are a Vishal Fan and looking for a decent enough story yes Rathnam is a good movie for you. Yogi babu's comedy takes some parts attractive for the audience, Gautham Menon Sir's entry and the short part he is doing is always best. Music is good the songs are good. Samuthirakani does a decent job with his character as well, seen him in this kind of a character after a long time.

Not worth to watch on theatre, could have waited for OTT release.

Fully action as per what the directors previous themes.

Komali villain powder use pannikittu irekkan appo².

Herions mum, over reaction.

Overall is 5/10.

Songs all mokke. Not nice. Doesn't fit to the tempo of the scene.

Vishal needs another type of hair stylist. Always same style for every movie.

Positive: Camera shots, continuous shots were something new and nice to be exactly at the back of the car chase. Vishal as usual led this movie.

Got Abit of twist here and there. But at the end they covered all the plot holes which were opened throughout the movie.

It is Hari's typical template movie with some idiotic and boring scenes. Each film he makes worsens after his film Poojai (a decent film still a good timepass movie).

This movie is about Rathnam, a henchman who works for a politician and helps a girl who resembles his mother. But later on became his own revenge story.

The action & stunt sequences for a human protagonist are overwhelming compared to regular Kollywood action films. And I can't root for Rathnam as he fights each time in the movie. The songs were poorly made and the BGM too, I can't even remember what they were like after a few minutes of finishing the movie.

The movie starts with Rathnam trying to save Malliga's life from the Villains who threaten to sell her property to them and suddenly it becomes Rathnam's revenge for his mom with the same Villains. This story shift from one plot line to another plot is unnecessary. It just felt like It was done to stretch the film length.

The romance between Rathnam and Malliga was flat. Malliga falls in love with Rathnam after he saves her once and she comes to know the true intentions of his violent actions. There is confusion in Rathnam's characterization about whether he is just emotionally attached to her because she resembles his mother or he loves her for real.

The comedy scenes are poor as they feel like nothing. Just Yogi Babu's typical characterization is where he travels with the protagonist, and body shaming, and teasing everyone.

Overall, I wouldn't recommend anyone to watch this movie even if they like action movies with no logic and poor story.

Once again another good decent action/story pack film directed by Hari with his third collaboration with actor Vishal.

When you watch any Hari Tamil languages movies you need to be aware of how much violence will be in his films but he always has very good story that goes with he fight scenes.

Vishal does a good job to carry this film and he acts as Rathnam who is a bad but good guy and finds his way to protect someone.

If your looking for a good action pack fight scenes then watch this film. If your looking for a good, ok story this is your film. If you are a Vishal fan then please watch this film.

I would give this film 7/10 stars or 4,5/5 stars.
