Rathnam

The story offers little novelty, laden with clichéd and silly elements.

The screenplay feels outdated, and the dialogue frequently induces cringes.

The film also suffers from excessive violence and songs that seem shoehorned in without necessity.

The acting follows a dated Tamil template reminiscent of the early 2000s, failing to bring anything fresh to the table.

Direction sticks to the typical 'Hari' style, characterized by rapid-paced editing, which doesn't compensate for the film's other shortcomings.

It's advisable to skip this film altogether.

Not recommended to watch on OTT either.

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.

Usual shi_t and fights... nothing new 😑 disappointed.

Second half i slept because the story was not so interesting and some places are too predictable so not so interesting movie wasted my money on day one show hope i see some good movies from vishal like the old detective style thriller and realistic fights these fights are too fake to believe cuz people are flying around like old movies so change the style so people will be there to atleast enjoy the fight sequence overall the movie is one time watch to see vishal performance otherwise waste of money and time and the promotion of the movie was not that good the trailer also gives the same vibe as people are flying in fights.

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.

Rathnam, a 2024 Indian action film, tells the story of a man who is forced to confront his past and seek justice for the wrongs committed against him. The film explores themes of revenge, redemption, and the complexities of human relationships.

The film features a strong ensemble cast, with Vishal delivering a powerful performance in the lead role. His portrayal of a man seeking justice for his family is both compelling and emotionally resonant. The supporting cast, including Priya Bhavani Shankar, Gautham Vasudev Menon, and Samuthirakani, provides strong support, adding depth and complexity to the narrative.

Rathnam is a typical mass-masala action film that delivers on its promise of entertainment. While it may not be groundbreaking in terms of its narrative or execution, it offers a satisfying cinematic experience for fans of the genre.
