Prabhudeva is extremely underused as an actor. In fact, calling him an underrated actor has become a cliché now. None of the films that he took up in recent times explored his full potential as an actor. When he signed Pon Manickavel (well before the Covid-19 pandemic), it brought smiles to the faces of his fans. After several years and multiple delays, Pon Manickavel was finally released on Disney+Hotstar.But, it is full of clichés. Pon Manickavel is a potpourri of all cop films. So much so that, as an audience, we would know more about the cop procedures than the cops in the film. Director AC Mugil Chellappan’s Pon Manickavel begins with the murder of a lawyer. This sends the police to bring Pon Manickavel (Prabhudeva) out of retirement to nab the culprit. You know, the only-man-who-can-solve-this-case trope.One murder follows another. There’s a new suspect every five minutes and so-called twists and turns. Yet, Pon Manickavel is an underwhelming affair that has nothing new to offer.Pon Manickavel 2021 Full Movie Download
Over the years, Tamil cinema audiences have understood how to consume cop films. These days, it’s all about how such films are packaged rather than what’s new in them. On that note, Pon Manickavel has too many issues to deal with. But, none of the actual issues are dealt with care. These are just superficial and hence it doesn’t create an impact. For example, we are shown cases of police brutality, women’s safety and drug abuse. They’re shown for a few scenes and that’s it. Pon Manickavel then jumps to another issue.One of the exciting aspects of Pon Manickavel is how the lead actor has a dilemma about his work. The question that haunts him is whether he should work for the people or the government. If only this conflict was handled with sensitivity, Pon Manickavel would have been a much better film.The initial set of scenes would test everyone’s patience. Because there’s literally nothing happening on screen. We see an uninterested Pon Manickavel leading an investigation. His subordinate, played by Baahubali Prabakar, loses his cool seeing Pon Manickavel’s way of investigation. And we feel him too.
