Thug Life Review - Mani Ratnam and Kamal Haasan reunite for Thug Life. Kamal de-aged looks brings Nayagan nostalgia in the opening scenes. The premise is rooted in Delhi’s political and historical backdrop giving scope for a layered emotional drama#ThugLife #Thuglifereview pic.twitter.com/fKiVOsUtKd

#ThugLife A Boring Gangster Drama that had some intrigue in the initial set up but falls off completely after that!
— Venky Reviews (@venkyreviews) June 5, 2025
The first half is at-least somewhat watchable due to a few interesting portions and the set up. However, the second half is a complete dud from start to finish.…
#ThugLifeReview 1st Half:

Technically brilliant – stunning visuals & pulsating BGM. Kamal sir is solid, but it’s STR who erupts on screen 🔥
His energy is unmatched!
Scene staging & story feel familiar – nothing new so far.
INTERVAL BANGER – STR FIREWORK 🧨 pic.twitter.com/Qbz7L0owNv

KH-Trisha love portions r Dull. STR, Abirami Neat. Songs gud. Delhi landscape visuals super. Weak Story, No emotions, No twists; Unexciting & Draggy Narratin. DISAPPOINTMENT!
Cinema,Politics& Family ~ FAILED!

#ThugLife had potential but ends up dragging.

Kamal Haasan delivers a solid performance, but his never-ending monologues wear you down. Simbu handles his part well, but even that can’t rescue the sluggish, flat second half. The trademark Mani Ratnam spark? Nowhere to be found.… pic.twitter.com/KdA4aqrJiV
