’Bogan’ is heavily inspired from Faceoff but tries to break free locally with the lead characters competing against each other on the screen as rivals and in respective acting too. Jayam Ravi and Arvind Swamy’s chemistry is certainly something to watch out for after the runaway hit ’ThaniOruvan’. Two contrasting personalities come face to face in a deadly duel just like their previous flick and who gets the better out of each other becomes the cream of the plot and it just deepens their enmity and keeps the screenplay engaging enough.
You have seen this scene already, Arvind Swamy swags his way around with an impeccable confidence, his body language enough to say that the badass has arrived. Only this time he tricks his way inside people’s minds and goes on a looting spree. The sluggish arrogance is something which Arvind Swamy can boast off, as a modern day thug who knows mystic ways to swap his soul, he steals the show all the way and makes us wonder where this guy was all these years. After establishing his character, the plot shoots off to become the typical Tamil movie with an action packed cop ( Jayam Ravi) who falls in love with a beautiful lass ( Hansika) , but kudos to the director on getting this part over with and moving to the engaging part of the script. Keeping the spoilers to minimum, screenplay of ’Bogan’ is a fitting duel between two varying personalities; one a straightforward smart cop with an adorable family, the other a badass crook who uses mystic forces to live a king size life.
