#ThunivuReview: #Ajith Some guts and no glory.As the slickly paced crime drama drifts to the #cinematic. Movie Ratings - ⭐⭐🌟tars The frenetically staged first act of Thunivu, writer-director H Vinoth’s heist thriller headlined by Ajith Kumar, does not pause to offer explainers. There is a bank, a few men who are in there to rob it, and there is this inscrutable intruder in their midst, switching between madcap showboat and elite killer, breaking only for his dance moves. By the time this setting is established, Vinoth has validated his choice of tone which is at once dark and facetious. The action around the heist comes interspersed with a terrific track of black humour involving a corrupt TV journalist (Mohana Sundaram) and a corrupt cop (Bucks). They walk around burning cars and debris striking their own deals of mutual gain, assured and businesslike. The half-playful approach helps in holding this seemingly scattershot narrative together and puts the nameless, past-less protagonist on course for a worthy backstory. Read | Big box office clash: Vijay's 'Varisu' vs Ajith Kumar's 'Thunivu' This is a star vehicle with all eyes on its lead actor; Ajith reactivates his Mankatha-mode here, playing the cool criminal with a self-awareness that would look ungainly on most of his contemporaries. There is unabashed fan-service (who da gangsta?, asks the mandatory hero-elevation song) and the character build-ups, more glaringly with the men who are introduced as villains, are generic (the film has its own, interesting play with the hero-villain dynamic though). The x2 pace at which things unfold does not pull you enough into the plot. The lack of exposition works, for a while, in the story of a man who has Dark Devil for a moniker. His relationship with Kanmani (Manju Warrier, at ease with the guns and the general badassery) is never spoken about either. She calls him partner and when he wants her to survive a gunshot injury, all he needs to tell her is, “remember who we are”. The film, rather curiously, breaks halfway to adopt the sensibilities of a Shankar film. The story, about banks, credit card debts and contract fine print, is told in scenes https://www.instagram.com/p/CnZhA5PsMwY/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=
