Dhurai

My Review : Dhurai

Arjun's follow up to one of his major hits "Marudhamalai" was keenly expected by all but sadly " Dhurai " fails to live up to the expectations.Arjun's Story & screenplay plays the spoilsports here which fails to liven up the proceedings .

Plot : About political power struggle & conspiracies within a party .

Arjun : He is dashing on screen with a well toned up body which he flashes often in the movie . As far the acting goes he is little irritating as an amnesic in the first half but regains his feet in the second half as a man bent to seek revenge.

There are 3 heroines but all are used as properties without a inch of scope to perform , not that they are itching to show of thier acting prowess either . Keerath in particular seems to think that flashing her teeth on to the camera is all about acting.

Vivek irritates as usual trying to emulate Vadivelu .

Music by D.Iman , who is usually good at remixing has miserably murdered the classic "Raja..rajai rajan intha raja .." by remixing it .It feels terrible to hear the remix version of one of Raja sir's beauty .

Cinematographer Laxmipathy (Debutant) tries his best to show his prowess but he seem to have battled with the limited resources .

Editor seems to have slept off during the entire process of editing this movie. 2:20 mins seem to go on & on.

A.Venkatesh , who has a name as a reliable commercial director has faltered this time as the script just refuses to help his causes .

Bottomline : Movie joining the list of Pandhayam & Sakkarakatti ....

1.5/5
