The hero Surya Sethupathi hacks to death the MLA who murdered his brother in broad daylight in front of the public. The police who arrest him keep him in a juvenile reform school (Government Home). The wife of the MLA, Varalaxmi Sarathkumar, who is trying to kill Surya who murdered her husband, plans to kill him in a juvenile reform school, but Surya Vijay Sethupathi foils her plan. The villainous group, who is shocked by Suriya’s actions, who thought he was just a boy, stages a series of plans to kill him, and how Suriya Vijay Sethupathi escapes from them and proves himself a loser is ‘Phoenix’.
Suriya Sethupathi, who plays the hero, has handled a strong character very well in his first film. He has acted with a vigor and courage befitting his age, and is intimidating in the scenes where he takes action to avenge his brother’s murder and faces related problems. Suriya Sethupathi, who has established himself as an action hero in the scene where he beats up five armed men and kills them all, does not talk much and acts modestly and attracts the attention of the audience.
Suriya Sethupathi’s hard work is visible throughout the film, as his appearance suits the plot and his performance perfectly suits the action scenes. Although it is an action scene, he easily overcomes the scenes that were considered vulgar in the first film through his reactions and body language and receives applause.
Sampath Raj, who plays the role of the villain MLA, Varalaxmi Sarathkumar, who plays the wife of the MLA, Devadarshini, who plays the hero’s mother, ‘Kaaka Muttai’ Vignesh, who plays the hero’s brother, Abhi Natchathira, Varsha, Muthukumar, Dileepan, Ajay Ghosh, Harish Uthaman, Munaru Ravi, Naveen, Gayathri, Atti Rishi, and others who play other roles have acted in a way that adds strength to the flow of the screenplay.
Cinematographer R. Velraj’s camera has presented the action scenes in a way that is not only dramatic but also tells the story. Although the film is full of action scenes, such as a room in a reform school, a court, and a mixed martial arts competition, cinematographer R. Velraj has shot the scenes in a way that makes the audience travel with them.
Music composer Sam.CS has worked hard to make his name strong again in Tamil cinema. He has given both songs and background music to add strength to the film, and has increased the hero’s mass through Peejiam.
Editor Praveen K.L, who keeps the film traveling at jet speed through sharp editing, has edited the action scenes in a way that is enjoyable.
Stunt master Anal Arasu, who has written and directed the film, has handled the film in a way that is enjoyable scene by scene. Although there is fighting and killing throughout the film, he captures the attention of the fans by saying what he has to say very briefly and quickly.
Although the violent scenes may be a bit disturbing to some viewers, the plot and the struggles of the characters make them forget.
Taking the painful lives of the poor and the struggles they face to recover from them as the plot, Anal Arasu has done an amazing job as a director, avoiding the usual elements of action films and telling the story through fight scenes.
