Film Review: Iraivan streaming on Netflix
Boasting of an impressive starcast with Jairam Ravi & Nayantara as the lead pair, Iraivan is a Tamil psychological thriller film where a psychopath called Brahma ( Rahul Bose) tortures & brutally murders young women and taunts the police with letters having a smiley 🙂. The police lose a few good men before the killer is caught but the killings start once again, making the police wonder whether they have caught the right man OR Is there another copycat killer on the loose !! It is up to ex- inspector Arjun to piece together all the clues and end the psychopath's reign of terror
The movie starts off very well , especially the first half is very gripping. However the second half seems stretched with lots of blaring errors in the screenplay which shouldn't have been there! How can an ex-cop get all privileges on par with cops working on the case , but without accountability? Poor cops working on the case are royally sidelined and seem low on morale with Arjun taking over and firing away with impunity!!
On the positive side, Jairam Ravi as ex- inspector Arjun has an impressive screen presence and shines in his role as a man obsessed with bringing the killer to book.
Nayantara, does decently in her small role as Arjun's love interest.
Not a total washout but cudve been better!!
Going with 2.5/5 for this one .. Adios🙂!!
