Right Movie Review – Tense but Inconsistent 

Filmmaker Subramanian Ramesh Kumar presents Right, a thriller featuring Arun Pandian, Natty aka Natraj Subramanian, Aditya, Akshara Reddy, and others in the cast.

Story

The film opens inside the Kovalam Police Station on an unusual day when many officers remain absent. An old man (Arun Pandian) walks in with a plea. His son has gone missing after a night at the pub. At the same time, a woman officer (Akshara Reddy) arrives to deliver a wedding invitation. She switches on a laptop and shocks everyone. The system shows the station network has been hacked. The terror increases when they find a bomb under the chair of a police writer. The moment he stands, it explodes, throwing the place into chaos. Soon, a chilling audio message plays through the laptop, setting up a tense confrontation.

Performance

Arun Pandian does not suit the role and weakens the impact. Stronger actors like Sathyaraj, Joju George, or Soubin Shahir might have elevated the part. The issue lies in casting rather than his effort. Natty, with limited screen presence, makes the plot easy to predict. On the brighter side, Akshara Reddy delivers a neat performance and carries her role convincingly. Aditya makes a decent debut and fits his part. Yuvina, remembered from Ajith Kumar’s Veeram, appears briefly but performs well. Thangadurai fails to engage, as his humour dilutes the tension. Vinodhini as the Judge stands out with an effortless performance.

Narrative, Screenplay, Dialogues, and Direction

The story in Right blends shades of Unnai Pol Oruvan and Yuddham Sei. The first half moves briskly and holds attention. However, the second half loses pace and adds unwanted moments. Too many suspects make the narrative tiring. The dialogues lack emotional strength, reducing their impact. Overall, the screenplay begins well but fades later.

Technical Aspects

The cinematography works well, capturing tension within a single location. Editing remains sharp and adds value to the pace. Production design falls flat, as the police station backdrop looks weak. The background score builds some moments of intensity, but the single song fails to impress. Removing it could have made the film tighter.

On the whole, Right Movie Review shows a film that starts with promise but slips into mediocrity. The first half feels engaging, yet the second half dilutes the momentum with predictable turns. Despite a few neat performances, Rightends up in the average zone.
