Ok so the genre is techno thriller . Let's talk about some of the good points about this movie :
1. Storyline/Screenplay : The story is as simple as it looks till the interval , we watch it and enjoy . After interval we are compelled to go into a different zone, we have to use our brain to understand the story thereafter.Best part of the movie is when Vishal's character confronts Arjun's character in the lift and we get to know the strong gripp of Arjun's character.
2. Song : The one melody of the movie that goes on till the very end is heart welming and satisfying.
3. Arjun's character Satyamurthy: Arjun nailed and did full justice to the character of Satyamurthy.
4. Adhaar card scene : This is when we are told the future or the true intentions of Satyamurthy and man it's truly a thrill ride experience.
Now let's see some bad points:
1. Vishal's character Major : Major is shown to be totally helpless and confused after his money got looted , besides if he is a major how did he even came close of knowing about stayamurthy , now if we consider his Gf and his friends . They stand no chance infront of a man who can find out a person's face from a profile picture on facebook.
2. Before interval part : The before interval part and Major's before life story and his anger related problems was not necessary , besides here Major has some financial problem due to which he tries to sanction some loan but in reality , the post at which Major is , is of a major and Major in our country are handsomely paid .
To conclude we can say that Irumbu Thirai is a thriller in one way , teaches us something about technology and advancement but at the same time making us question some of the unnecessary scenes which could had been made into a brilliant way . I rate it 7.5 / 10 . They had a very strong content but we're not able to harness is properly.
