Mythily Ramachandran Gulf News (UAE) Theeran Adhigaaram Ondru entertains while saluting those police officers who place duty before everything else. Nov 22, 2017 Full Review M Suganth The Times of India Theeran Adhigaaram Ondru grips us by the scruff of our necks and never lets go. Rated: 3.5/5 Nov 17, 2017 Full Review Haricharan Pudipeddi Hindustan Times Except for the tiresome romantic portion which can be overseen by the end of the film, Theeran is a gripping, explosive action drama that works despite its lengthy running time.

Flixster F Based on real crime, the film could have been pretty good had it focused on the subject alone. Unfortunately, it gives in to the traditional storytelling and unnecessarily adds the character played by Rakul Preet. The time wasted in it did real damage to maintain my interest. Rated 2.5 out of 5 stars 01/21/23 Full Review Audience Member Stories like these usually don't work out that well with well-known actors in them. But Karthi... what a job man! Rated 4 out of 5 stars 02/08/23 Full Review Audience Member Theeran - Where the director takes you to the Horror world of notorious robbery gang H.Vinoth has given a cult movie !! PERIOD. The film is a horror-thriller roller coaster. The director gradually holds your hand and takes you to the ride and pushes from a dizzying height of horror and thriller to narrate his true story on notorious Bawaria robbery gang. As a person who have watched few of the top horror thriller genre movies , but this movie will send chills down your spine , mainly because it has the element of locality, something close happening in India. Director has taken lots of pain in detailing the movie and as far as i remember, there aren't much holes left , eve in the scene were the gang will stop the train , if you listen closely , the passengers will say " this is the usual mischief done by the train traveler" , so there the director has given us a reason that this thing is common , so the train after a short while starts to move. Or else we know it will take much longer time for the train to start after emergency stop is activated. Small things like these and also not deviating from the core and giving us the whole anatomy of this notorious gang right from their root has only strengthened the story and it makes the whole narration and the gang stick close to our heart. In most movie the enemy will be hyped till a certain point and after that his fate nose dives from there. But here the director has kept the hype - and it sticks too till almost three quarter of the movie , there my making us tremble each time we learn about the gang. Karti has done EXCELLENT EXCELLENT acting. He has played it aptly. I don't think anyone would have fit the role , may be Kamal ? Love sequence are the only downers in this movie. Overall i would say this is the BEST MOVIE in TAMIL FOR 2017 !! Movies like these elate the Tamil industry to new heights. Not for the faint hearted though.. Rated 5 out of 5 stars 01/13/23 Full Review Audience Member Thrilling interval block. Second half stretches a bit.
