Featured review
Imagine a Shankar's vigilante film blended with strong humor. That's what Vignesh Shivan's Thaanaa Serndha Koottam offers. Being the remake of Special 26, the film is definitely intriguing with its elements that gather all types of audiences. Suriya looks charismatic and energetic as usual. His performance doesn't need any further explanation because it's quite satisfying. Apart from him, we have very strong supporting actors with each and everyone has an equal share of screen space. They are able to lift the film along with Suriya with their performances. The only criticism would be for Keerthy Suresh. She doesn't have a purposeful role and she is less impactful. Technically, Thaanaa Serndha Koottam sounds really loud and it's worth mentioning that the recreation of the 80s period was a major strength for the film. Anirudh's album and background score are really intense and delightful. Okay! It's time to talk about Vignesh Shivan. As a filmmaker, he proved his strengths through Naanum Rowdy Dhaan. One might notice that Vignesh Shivan has strength in transforming a supposed to be serious film into a complete comedy riot. In Thaanaa Serndha Koottam, we have a typical Shankar kind of social issue that is treated as hilarious as possible. That's why Thaanaa Serndha Koottam is a fresh new experience. The kind of efforts that he used to build the environment and the characters are probably not much in the screenplay. There are so many ups and downs in the screenplay that might distract our attention from the film. Every character in the film has a backstory which is the reason why the film doesn't keep us on track. Just like a Shankar film, the hero has a motive to justify his con act. This is mostly one of the aspects that we have seen in every vigilante or social issue-based film. Except for the comedy aspect, Thaanaa Serndha Koottam lacks emotional impacts and surprising elements. Even the twist, in the end, seems to be not so attention grabber because it becomes somehow predictable to the audience. Overall, this heist comedy is a fun watch.
