    one time watch

    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.

    Good Movie

    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.

    Another disappointment from the director

    It is Hari's typical template movie with some idiotic and boring scenes. Each film he makes worsens after his film Poojai (a decent film still a good timepass movie).

    This movie is about Rathnam, a henchman who works for a politician and helps a girl who resembles his mother. But later on became his own revenge story.

    The action & stunt sequences for a human protagonist are overwhelming compared to regular Kollywood action films. And I can't root for Rathnam as he fights each time in the movie. The songs were poorly made and the BGM too, I can't even remember what they were like after a few minutes of finishing the movie.

    The movie starts with Rathnam trying to save Malliga's life from the Villains who threaten to sell her property to them and suddenly it becomes Rathnam's revenge for his mom with the same Villains. This story shift from one plot line to another plot is unnecessary. It just felt like It was done to stretch the film length.

    The romance between Rathnam and Malliga was flat. Malliga falls in love with Rathnam after he saves her once and she comes to know the true intentions of his violent actions. There is confusion in Rathnam's characterization about whether he is just emotionally attached to her because she resembles his mother or he loves her for real.

    The comedy scenes are poor as they feel like nothing. Just Yogi Babu's typical characterization is where he travels with the protagonist, and body shaming, and teasing everyone.

    Overall, I wouldn't recommend anyone to watch this movie even if they like action movies with no logic and poor story.

    The film explores themes of revenge, redemption, and the complexities of human relationships.

    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.

    Hari strikes again

    Once again another good decent action/story pack film directed by Hari with his third collaboration with actor Vishal.

    When you watch any Hari Tamil languages movies you need to be aware of how much violence will be in his films but he always has very good story that goes with he fight scenes.

    Vishal does a good job to carry this film and he acts as Rathnam who is a bad but good guy and finds his way to protect someone.

    If your looking for a good action pack fight scenes then watch this film. If your looking for a good, ok story this is your film. If you are a Vishal fan then please watch this film.

    I would give this film 7/10 stars or 4,5/5 stars.
