Thoranai (2009)
I don’t know the releases are not in full flow as it was three months ago,We see a release only two weeks once and then the distribution gets stagnated for months.This week we got Thoranai,Vishal was banking much on this after his debacle Satyam.
Thoranai is a movie which has the story of 70’s and 80’s.Younger brother Murugan ( Vishal ) comes to Chennai in search of his brother .He gets entangled with the gang war of two Dons of the city Tamil Arasu ( Prakash Raj ) and Guru ( Kishore).Its left to Vishal to clean up the gang to take his brother home .
Movie is not worse but couldn’t be treated as a good entertainer thought.Movie entertains in parts with Santhanam doing the magic again through out the first half.He can switch off from his double meaning verses.Vishal doesn’t want to try any thing new as he did stupid in Satyam.This time what makes him loose is the PUNCH DIALOGUES.I couldn’t sit for a second when he speaks those dialogues.Its irritating and it had made the movie miss the grade .Its not only Vishal every one in the movie speaks very lengthy dialogues for no reason.Even in the climax when Vishal pleads to Commissioner he speaks a lengthy throat which actually looks funny.
Prakashraj and Kishore make a good combination of opposite poles but the dialogues between them irritates the whole show.Shreya has nothing to offer other than the songs which appears so idiotically every thirty minutes as a protocol.Santhanam does it again as he did the magic in SMS.He gives a laugh riot with Vishal which is the relaxing part in the movie.Movie could have turned out to be a good entertainer if the over aggressiveness and some over reaction of Vishal was reduced.He had turned out to be copying many actors at the moment which leaves him empty in the screen.Some body in Tamil Industry fight to win against Vishal ! I see no body since his first movie had won fighting against him.He cant continue long if its repeated again.
Director Saba Iyyappan has a very average debut which is doesnt turn out as he wished .Thoranai is an average movie for action lovers ,strictly amateur action nothing very much interesting.
Rating : *1/2
