Thug Life offered the promise of a cinematic landmark, reuniting two legends after 37 years—but ultimately underdelivered. While the visual aesthetics, music, and performances, especially by Kamal Haasan, stand as notable strengths, the predictable screenplay, flat emotional arc, and a bleak second half turned what could have been an epic gangster saga into a mediocre genre rehash.
