STORY :
Vishal begins from where he left in malaikotai. Thoranai is an action packed entertainer that doesnt keep you
entertained due to various flaws in the screenplay.The story however is not new to tamil cinema . Murugan(Vishal) son of geetha comes to chennai in search of his elder brother ( Guru). The story begins with as usual an intro song in a village . The scene where guru enters chennai he is shocked and surprised to see a murder happening in front of him . Then he runs intro trouble with the local dons Prakashraj and Kishore. Vishal then meets Shriya and falls in love with her.The entire first half is quite humourous with santhanam,mayilsamy,aarthy providing the audience some comedies which doesnt make you laugh at places .At the end of the First half is the twist where Vishal finds that one of the don is his elder brother .Whether Vishal brings his elder brother to His Village Forms the rest of the plot . Second half has some extra characters like Shivaji Shindey who is a minister and who uses prakash raj for comitting his political crimes. Lal an encounter specialist who flows in from mumbai and is forced to do an encounter by the minister and thereby
eliminating all the local goons from the city. The movie is full of one liners with almost each character saying a one liner while Vishal leads them saying most of the punches to Prakash Raj. Having seen Prakash Raj in these roles before it is nothing new and his character doesnt entertain the audience as expected. Guru ( Kishore ) has amazed the audience with his way of speaking Tamil in a style which is something special.Shriya provides the necessary glamour quotient and keeps the youth satisfied throughout the movie.Finally Coming to Vishal after a mediocre Malaikotai and a LackLustre Sathyam Vishal still hasnt learnt his lesson as he tries to imitate Senior Actors like Rajini and Vijay through out the movie. Vishal needs to understand that he must follow his own style to achieve stardom and shouldnt follow other actors.The movie ends with an encounter in which almost the entire baddies of chennai are killed in the harbour .The music of mani sharma is okay. Pelican Paravagal ,Va chellam are quite good . Rest of the songs make the audience move out of the theatre during the songs. The background score is appealing for the massesThe stunts are good as they have tried to make most of the stunts realistic as possible. But the stunts are spoiled by the one liners that vishal speaks before/after each and every fight sequence

RATING: 1.5/5
VERDICT: THORANAI HAS THE MASS BUT MISSES TO SATISFY THE AUDIENCE
AT THE CBO: AS THERE ARE NO BIG RELEASES FOR A FEW DAYS AND AFTER SARWAM'S DISSAPOINTING SHOW THE MOVIE WILL HAVE GOOD COLLECTIONS THROUGHOUT THE OPENING WEEK . THE FATE OF THE MOVIE THEN RESTS WITH THE AUDIENCE.
