This movie is very long in which first half is long but good screenplay! STR role in this movie is awesome...Str is a villager in tamilnadu and how he became a gangster in Mumbai is the moviee...str acting is Vera level(good)!1st half is slow but not boring...Second half is worth watching! Get enough sleep before watching this movie..Being a neutral fan I love this movie so much!songs are good and fight stunts are satisfactory... screenplay is not bad and a good plot which keep me engaged in this movie...I suggest you to watch the movie with no expectations! All characters are good in acting and twists are present in second half for sure...worth watching ππ
An asusual gangster drama which works out well due to great writing , mind blowing music , phenomenal performance and unique kinda treatment in making . GVM as a director gave a great visuals to the Jayamohan's writing , he completely worked out of his comfort zone , happy to see him in a new avatar . Jayamohan's writing was great , Muthu's characterisation was well designed and movie completely focused character arc of Protagonist . First half , story took it's own time to build and interval block was totally insane . Second half , movie explores underground gangster rivals and Romantic life of Muthu it wasn't great as first half but good . STR once again gave a marvelous performance . AR Rahman gave a mind blowing album , his music treatment for gangster drama was unique and great . Cinematography was phenomenal , some of the long single take Shot was great . Drawbacks , 3rd act was bit odd , too many single take shots and finally last 5 mins was totally meh . Overall a well made gangster drama movie to watch , give a try I hope you like it .

This new version GVM works out well with the Magic of STR and ARR First and foremost ARR is the main piller behind this gangster drama his background score elevating the scenes to another level second piller is the STR acting wow his manarisam in every stage of the character his impeccable other than ARR and STR writing stands out each and every character has a scope and it catches screen space perfectly after all these positives there are some negatives too some romantic portions felt like not needed(including a song) If you don't mind these small lags film will entertain you for sure go enjoy this ride in theatres.
I watched this movie with subtitles since unfortunately it was not dubbed in hindi on prime but I completed it like I complete other South movies with subtitles if it has the content to hold your interest otherwise if not I switch off after twenty minutes or so because this is the time limit you usually need to understand if the movie is worth watching. This is first time I am watching the lead actor and actress and no doubt they did good job. The heroine does not have much screen space in first half but she is likeable with her good looks and sweet dimple. The direction is good, the set is well made, well shot and a complete entertainer.
Venthu Thanindhadhu Kaadu - Simbu has given his best performance in this movie. One can see only Muthu and not the star actor in any frame. The writing and cinematography are top notch with long one shot scenes at many places that does not distract the viewing experience.
The protagonist becomes a gangster by circumstances. And, it was convincing. The comparison with the Sreedhar character was new and refreshing in this gangster milieu. You know exactly what Muthu has lost and gained due to his choices. One man's choices and the universe decides your fate. This is one of the best Gautam Menon movies after ages.
