Kaithi (2019)
3/10
Unrealistic with gaping plot holes
23 August 2020
Warning: Spoilers
The action is good and nail-biting; but it is too much to expect the audience to believe that a gang which can procure a Rs. 900 crore drug consignment has no guns and just fight with knives and sickles.

Even the top man Anbu doesn't have a gun. They are powerful and influential enough to slip drugs in the drinks of entire police force including the retiring commissioner but they don't bring along any guns or sophisticated equipment to barge into the police station. No metal cutters, electric saws etc; not even when there is 900 crores worth of drugs at stake. They spend the whole night hammering at the gates with their bare hands and just at the last hour, they hit upon the brilliant idea of using their vehicle to smash down the gates.

And the police station doesn't seem to have any guns in the armoury, so the old cop waits to face them with a sickle in his hand.

Worst still is the fact that even when the key gang members (Anbu and Adaikalam) are both in the custody of the old cop, it still doesn't occur to him to tell the goons to back off by threatening to shoot them down.
