Review of Theri

Theri (2016)
6/10
The more you expect; the more you get disappointed: An average spark
15 April 2016
The much anticipated movie of the season, Vijay starrer Theri (The spark), is definitely doing abuzz amongst Vijay fans (much because of the protagonist), and film lovers (much because of the new Vijay- Atlee combo).

The story revolves around a cop, leaving his duties to raise and protect his daughter. When a potential threat related to his past life arrives and haunt their lives..... (Rest stays true if you have a little Movie sense).

Vijay has rocked throughout the film, with his ability to produce humour by imitating other people around, and the rest are signature Vijay - Dance and action.

The next one in my list would definitely be his little daughter Nainika. A cute kid, with some quirky dialog is definitely more than enough and this kid delivers them with ease.

Samantha and Amy Jackson have done their parts well while Rajendran gells up well with Vijay throughout the film. A different comedy combo this time. BGM works fabulous and so is the cinematography.

However, in my opinion Vijay stays obdurate in choosing his film. A complete Vijayish film - Sentiment overloaded, sympathy, 5 song theory, action and then, here comes the most clichéd revenge. The adorable cop things are completely missing in the movie.

All the songs were unnecessary and they further reduced the pace of themovie.

In all, a not so racy but more like a typical Vijay film, importantly this time without more flaws deserve a quiet watch.
