Metro is a Tamil Action Thriller and Drama 2016 film featuring Shirish Saravanan, Bobby Simha, Sendrayan, Yogi Babu. The Metro movie is written and directed by Ananda Krishnan and which is produced by Jaya Krishnan, Anandakrishnan.
The movie is inspired by a real-life incident and throws light on the modus operandi of chain snatchers. It also tries to explore the psyche of modern-day criminals and their motives for turning to crime. The story of the movie is narrated with two important characters, Arivu (Shirish), a student, and Madhi (Satya), a journalist, who are the sons of a retired cop.
Madhi is in love with a girl played by Maya, who wants him to have an expensive mobile and a bike. As his family could not afford it, he decides to commit a crime. The remaining part of the story is about how this affects his family and the way a journalist wages war against the organised crime.
Performances
Newcomer Sathya gets the maximum screen space and the actor has used his opportunity in a convincing manner. However, his act in some of the scenes might make you wonder if the director has entrusted him with a role, which is a tad too meaty for his skills. Shirish comes up with a commendable performance. But, his transformation from being a responsible person to a powerful hero, is unconvincing. Bobby Simha has delivered one of his best performances. His dialogue delivery too, is sharp and adds to the engaging factor.
