Vendhu Thanindhathu Kaadu’  movie review: 

Simbu and Gautham Menon are superb in this very ordinary gangster drama

In fact, it doesn’t even claim to belong to the gangster genre. 

Instead, we get a nice procedural drama that is both a blessing and a curse. More about that later. 

And Gautham Menon anyway isn’t interested in telling the story of a gangster; he seems content with the journey itself. 

He seems interested in capturing the life of Muthu in real time. 

By doing so, Gautham creates a mood piece with space and leisure 

That makes it hard to tell whether I enjoyed it to its entirety or if something felt lost in translation. 

But what I can confidently say is that the world VTK tries to construct in the first half is exquisite — both in terms of writing and direction. 

Gautham usually has this urgency to get into the protagonist’s head and ‘narrate’ his story, but that has been course-corrected. 

He has been using voice-over as a device to further the narrative.
