Regina is a recent film that managed to pique the curiosity of the audiences, thanks to its brilliantly cut trailer. It gave us severe ‘Kill Bill’ vibes and how exciting is the idea of having a female-led revenge thriller on the same lines? Director Domin DSilva got a few things right and the trailer stands tall. However, the film, sadly, doesn’t stand up to the brilliantly cut trailer.
Regina (Sunaina) and Jo (Ananth Nag) are a happy couple, much in love. However, a robbery at Jo’s bank ends up killing him. She is distraught, shaken and shocked seeing her husband’s lifeless body. Regina’s activist father was also killed in an altercation when she was young. Now, with her husband gone, will Regina overcome the shock and find the will to lead her life? She leaves her home and escapes to Varkala, where she works at a beach-side restaurant with Julie (Rithu Mantra). Has Regina moved on? Or does she have some hidden secrets? Meanwhile, Julie’s husband Arivu (Nivas Adithan) returns from prison, which pushes Regina to execute the plan that she had been plotting for a long time. What is her intention and how does she execute it forms the story? Sunaina’s performance and her transformation do not attract our attention either. Her dialogue delivery is so off-putting and doesn’t match the intensity of the story. However, she has showcased the vulnerability of her character well in the film. Rithu Mantra’s character had ample scope to turn Regina into a solid thriller. However, it is absolutely wasted. Similarly, Nivas Adithan, Dheena and Gajaraj’s characters are given shallow treatment.
Regina released in theatres on June 23. The film features Sunaina in the titular role.
Regina is a revenge film that has a predictable one-liner. A Tamil drama movie about an ordinary woman Regina (Sunaina) who faces an extraordinary situation.
