Thunivu

Watched FDFS at 2:30 am... Had very high hopes and the first half completely lived up to the expectations... AK is very stylish and charming... The whole heist has a mystery surrounding it in the first half and that's the major plus for the movie.. First half is Cold and Dark...

We get mixed feelings in second half . With messages revolving around how people get scammed, we can connect to an extent but the fact that these messages are coming from a robber is an irony.. These messages are still explained In a funny and entertainable way..

The climax fight in boats felt cliched like usual tamil films.. Overall, I enjoyed it a lot and worth the Sick leave that I'm going to take today and sleep during the day...

Like it's protagonist & his team (aka family), even Thunivu's screenplay follows the KISS policy - Keep it simple, silly. The bank heist plan to steal 500cr goes haywire when another team led by the Devil himself take over the heist with eyes on far bigger amount and deeper motive. Who is this Devil and why is he involved in the heist forms rest of the story. With AK leading from the front, Thunivu has a solid first half getting everything right from his intro to using his swag to kickstart the story. There is a barely a dull moment here.

It is the second half which is over simplified with two back to back flashbacks where H. Vinoth let go of his inner Atlee. It brings a major tonal change and the attempt to bring in a strong yet emotional justification to the hero's actions turns out to be too desperate. It messes up the flow big time. Also the oversimplification of the issue highlighted here, makes the action that follow look silly. If only things could be resolved in such a simple manner.

The supporting cast gets badly sidelined in the second half and the prolonged action sequence in the climax doesn't help the proceedings. One cannot help wishing for a better second half as the current one simply doesn't do justice to the entertaining first half.

Perfect Content Action Packed.. #HVinoth Made his Mass writting with Many Great Dialogues to People... #AK's one of the best performance #Gibran's music is good

Its an all in all AK madness. His swag, his way of firing with the guns, his evil calculative smile , his anger, AK was being untied and gave the complete freedom by the director to do what he wants. That was the feeling post watching his performance.

1st half as director claimed its for Thala fan, I will say that its for all those who love mass & 1st half was awesome.

2nd half it was a mixture. As H. Vinoth in his Galatta Plus interview stated that he stress on giving information on a specific subject through his interview & that what we could see in 2nd half. The financial scams, the bank issues etc blended with the cinematic ingredients, movie throws out to be a watchable flick.

Overall Thunivu is a mass entertainer backed by a relevant message..

SIXER 🔥

If you don't go with much expectations, you will be reasonably satisfied as an ajith fan. This film was far better than vivegam and valimai . The movie which started as a typical bank loot has a deep story into it. I personally liked the 2nd half . Loved the twists here and there. Other than some action and mass scenes of ajith in the first half, there was nothing more to it. Manju warrier reminded me of Tokyo in money heist. Cinematography and bgm could have been better. The bank shown in the movie is a big bank that looks like RBI head office. I have never seen such a big nationalised or private bank. So director should have chose a decent sized bank. I will give 7/10 for this film.

Thunivu- Well crafted heist thriller with a rooted plot that shakes the public and provides deep insights into what exactly the bank does for common society.

Ajith owns the complete movie with his swag, dance moves, dialogue delivery and fights. He up-levels the plot to the next level, and masks somehow the immature editing and few silly scenes.

Vinoth as the director has chosen the right script and educates the audience with awareness.

He exposes the real truth tactfully with twists and turns. Wish the screenplay was bit tight with crisp editing in the second half.

Thunivu strikes the right cord otherwise!
