    Simple, Rustic, But Interesting to Follow

    The story is merely simple, the making of the film is also simple,, rustic, as it is, yet very interesting to follow. In fact, the rustic atmosphere and picturing of the people and surroundings make this work live and natural.

    It's just that unfortunately, there are a number of tucked-in conflicts that aren't resolved until the end of the film, thus making the audience wonder: Really? Is that it? How come it's over? What about their problem with finding the earrings and the stealer? What about the people who eloped because of the advise of the dead Granny?.

    But above all, the plot suspense is good, it really makes you curious. The director is good and successful in organizing and directing the players to follow the storyline, the jokes are "crazy" natural in the style of "Srimulat" or "Ludruk Suroboyoan" (Srimulat and Ludruk are traditional comedy show from Jawa and Surabaya, Indonesia).

    Good for you, film-maker team ! Greeting from Indonesia.

    An okayish affair ruined by a ridiculous ending

    Thandatti introduces a lot of interesting characters, and I found this to be the films strength. As a film, I believe it would've worked better as much much shorter, and as being more comic in tone, but nonetheless it does kind of work. However, in the climax, an utterly bizarre and illogical twist is revealed that ruins the whole film. People should realise that complexity and unpredictability doesn't necessarily make a film that good, and that sometimes simplicity is preferable.

    The acting was a mixed bag, with a decent performance from the lead and the character playing Show Pandi. As for the story style, Thandatti lacks severely in subtlety and relies on loud music and countless flashbacks to convey information.

    4/10.

    pre-climax: great, post-climax: dull

    Overall, the movie was intriguing pre-climax; then after the climax, it became dull. Later towards the end, it picked back the pace

    DELICIOUS

    -Ram Sangaiah gave us a good understanding of the characters and the story. Subramani was an unconventional police officer who was not afraid to harm criminals and go the extra mile to help those in need

    -Vivek Prasanna was unrecognizable😅 He was drunk, dirty, silly, unreasonable, and really irritating. He nailed his role

    -Many thanks to Mahesh, the cinematographer, for enhancing the storytelling with the camera movements. The lens was as curious as we were to reveal the close-ups we wanted to see

    -Thandatti was a moving tale that exposed man's cruelty, hypocrisy, and generosity

    BLAND

    ---After the earrings went missing, the investigation simply rotated around the same information.

    It became a bit redundant as the dialogues were weak and not really amusing

    Additionally, there was a man who claimed that Thangaponnu helped his daughter elope, but that segment never got followed through

    -Some parts were not credible, e.g. Thangaponnu is able to grab and hold on to her earrings despite the immense pain she endured.

    There was a person who was rescued even though that couldn't have logically happened under the circumstances...
