When Murugadoss directs, there are definite expectations. There are Navarasas but whatever be the genre, it seems to be Indian Cinema's curse is to have a love story as an undercurrent.
Four chunks of action blocks interspersed with Love and sentimentality served in Indian Cinema' style, that is Thuppaki for you.
In tune with the big releases in recent times, Mugamoodi. Thandavam and Mattran, the director sets it up nicely till the interval and fails to step up the accelerator in the second half.
The opening credits with the stills from Mumbai Skyline needs special mention. Very Creative.
Vijay punches away without his punchlines. All Vijay needs is some great writing and you have the screen writer set it up for him with clinical execution of the plan of eliminating the twelve terrorists.
When you have the brains to conceive of such great sequences, one wonders mindless violence in a couple of action blocks in the later half.
By setting up the story in Mumbai and including characters from all parts of the country, the director, successfully transcends the regional boundaries and makes you feel that you are watching the film as an Indian and not as a Tamilian.
Only hope directors like Murgadoss treat a subject by the merit of the subject and not by the constraints of the local market. The market have become global!!!
