Review: "Vanchinathan"

Stars: Vijayakanth, Ramya Krishnan and Prakash Raj
Music: Karthik Raja
Direction: Shaji Kailas

This is a typical Vijayakanth formula film. The honest police officer forced to contend with the worst villains. Furious fights, suitable sentimental touches and glamour topped by a gripping climax. However, Liyakath Ali Khan's sharp dialogues and Shaji's neat direction make the film look different and smart.

The director has criticized caste politics vehemently. This is especially meaningful considering the present political scenario in the state. The hero, however, comes across as a preacher or orator rather than a police officer. The only respite in a film which seems like a political documentary is Ramya's explosive glamour. Though this is the usual formula film , Vijayakanth has worked on his acting and stunts.

The lengthy dialogues suggest that Vijayakanth's immediate goal might be entering politics. Karthik Raja's music is rather ordinary. In a nutshell, this is yet another Vijayakanth starrer which could well improve the bank balance of the distributors.
