Bommai Movie Review: Another psycho act by SJ Suryah in a film that’s a treasure trove of cliches – India Today

By Janani Ok: SJ Suryah’s filmography, it’s fairly comprehensible that he excels in enjoying psycho and villain roles. Be it Spyder or Mersal or New, he has proved his mettle as an actor. Not simply that, even in movies like Monster or Iraivi, he simply impressed everybody along with his superlative performances. However, what occurs after we preserve seeing SJ Suryah variations of the identical character? Bommai is one such movie that feels meticulous to observe. The primary motive is SJ Suryah’s characterisation and his psycho act.

Raj Kumar (SJ Suryah) has a troubled previous and lives alone in his Chennai residence. He works as a painter in a model manufacturing unit. At some point, he unboxes a model, which has a defect within the chin space. It reminds him of his high-school sweetheart Nandini (Priya Bhavani Shankar). Nandini comes alive for Raj Kumar and collectively they think about the life they wish to stay.

Raj Kumar is a person who has a traumatic childhood, which has affected him psychologically. His hallucinations make him see Nandini day by day and converse with him. Add to it, Raj forgoes his medicine, which additionally makes him aggressive. How does his hallucination flip him right into a assassin and the way it impacts his life kind the crux of the story.

Bommai is a movie that doesn’t match into director Radhamohan’s model of movies, that are feel-good household dramas. It’s a movie a few defective hero – a person with a psychological situation. Whereas SJ Suryah was completely forged, the movie’s storyline doesn’t seem natural. The primary motive is how the director has performed to the clichés.

We see younger Nandini getting misplaced in a temple competition. We now have a bunch of law enforcement officials, who’re extraordinarily sluggish to find out the perpetrator. We now have dialogues which the audiences might predict even earlier than it’s mouthed by the characters on display screen. For instance, Raj Kumar and Nandini’s flashback scenes take us again to their faculty days. When the director included a temple competition sequence in it, you might guess the way it might finish even earlier than it might start.

This is the trailer:

The remaining stretch of the movie is replete with SJ Suryah going overboard along with his efficiency and poor dialogues. Among the traces will remind you of Tiger Thangadurai’s ‘mokka’ (unhealthy) jokes. No efficiency is sufficient to make you are feeling invested within the story. As a substitute, you unintentionally snigger on the weirdness unfolding on display screen.

Take, for instance, the scene the place Raj Kumar talks to the model (Nandini) and so they alternate how they might wish to marry one another. The dialogues make it absurd to put money into their love story. When the police officer, after studying about Raj Kumar’s situation, calls it a ‘fascinating love story,’ you’re left in splits.

Priya Bhavani Shankar has delivered a efficiency that’s forgettable. Yuvan Shankar Raja’s songs are jarring, and so does his background rating.

If Bommai was as uninteresting because it might get, it has cheesy VFX in a dreamy sequence. Now, that’s two movies with cheesy VFX which have graced the screens in the present day, June 16. When you’re questioning what the opposite one is, we’ll spell it for you – Adipurush it’s!

1 out of 5 stars for Bommai.
