Hence, the expectations too were pretty high about the movie. The movie, as its trailer gave away, is about Suruli &#8211; a local gangster from Tamil Nadu ending up in London<\/p>\n\n\n\n<blockquote class=\"wp-block-quote is-layout-flow wp-block-quote-is-layout-flow\"><p><em>\u201c<em>Dhanush-in-veshti strides across sleety England streets in slo-mo, doing Rajini but wisely keeping it low key, channeling the street-smart, lovable scamp he specializes in<\/em>.\u201d<\/em><\/p><cite>~ Indian Express<\/cite><\/blockquote>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Our review for this gangster drama is 06\/10.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<hr class=\"wp-block-separator\"\/>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Plot<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Suruli,a local gangster ends up coming to London at per the invitation of one Peter who wants help in fighting over his enemies. Peter is a racist man who is against the immigrant invasion of his country and is trying hard to get a bill passed against them to make the place immigrant-free. His fight is against one Devadoss, an immigrant from Srilanka who fights for the rights of other immigrants in the country. Suruli joins hands with Peter to help him with his work by being a hitman of a sort without really knowing what he is dealing with.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<hr class=\"wp-block-separator\"\/>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Performances<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>For the first time, I\u2019m going to mention another name apart from Dhanush when it comes to best performance in a \u2018Dhanush Movie\u2019 &#8211; James Cosmo. James did an extraordinary work being Peter on screen and delivered a memorable performance as a cold-blooded, ruthless villain. Apart from James, well obviously, the movie was a one-man show by Dhanush himself and we all know what he is capable of! Joju George too did commendable acting being Devadoss.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<hr class=\"wp-block-separator\"\/>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Review<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Disappointing will be the word. When it comes to a Karthik Subbaraj movie, the minimum expectation itself will be for the movie to be at least good in all aspects &#8211; let it be technical or content wise because the man is well known for delivering the best always. The movie started slow, went high up when Suruli entered with his quirkiness and swag but again went low in no time and never came back up.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The plot and everything about the movie seemed confused or misplaced &#8211; well, I can\u2019t find the right word but something wasn\u2019t right. At times, the editing too was so clumsy that I had to recollect what exactly happened in the previous scene. The movie had no surprise elements or well, the Dhanush\/Karthik factors in it which was a huge letdown. I couldn&#8217;t even spot two of my most favorite songs from the album too in the movie. The rest of the album, which was already chartbusters too didn\u2019t do any good when taken as a whole.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<hr class=\"wp-block-separator\"\/>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Verdict<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Jagame Thanthiram, unfortunately, is an avoidable movie. Dhanush does his best to carry the whole thing on his back but he can\u2019t handle everything when the whole thing he\u2019s trying to carry itself is a mess, right?<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Jagame Thanthiram  Movie Review: \ud83d\udc4e<\/p>\n<p>Jagame Thanthiram &#8211; An avoidable watch from Karthik Subbaraj and Dhanush.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":12,"featured_media":3948,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[101,76,36,123,69,212,55,78,35,80,77,70,122],"tags":[64,99,53,66],"class_list":["post-3903","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-movie-review","category-action","category-actors","category-castandcrew","category-crime","category-dhanush","category-genres","category-indian","category-movies","category-netflix","category-origin","category-review","category-tamil","tag-editorial-picks","tag-movie-review","tag-movies","tag-spoiler-free-review"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/fandom.yougle.ai\/insights\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/3903"}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/fandom.yougle.ai\/insights\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/fandom.yougle.ai\/insights\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/fandom.yougle.ai\/insights\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/12"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/fandom.yougle.ai\/insights\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=3903"}],"version-history":[{"count":4,"href":"https:\/\/fandom.yougle.ai\/insights\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/3903\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":3954,"href":"https:\/\/fandom.yougle.ai\/insights\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/3903\/revisions\/3954"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/fandom.yougle.ai\/insights\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/3948"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/fandom.yougle.ai\/insights\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=3903"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/fandom.yougle.ai\/insights\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=3903"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/fandom.yougle.ai\/insights\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=3903"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
