Click (2006)

There is a dialogue from the movie Mudhalvan directed by Shankar where Arjun's Dad tells Arjun that it be fine if there is rewind button in the life to go to the best moments of life when Arjun becomes a Chief minister and hardly finds time to spend with family. Huffffffffff ........How fine it would be if you have the chance to go back to your finest moments in your life and go forward to your future.I was bewildered with the way Hollywood script writers think to make a movie. This is a typical Adam sandler movie with Funny and nonsense activities directed by Frank Coraci and written by Steve Koren and Mark O Keefe. Click is the story of Michael Newman (Adam Sandler), an architect who aspires for promotion who is let down by his boss (David Hasseloff), that his family is forced to take the backseat. He lets down their Kids-Ben and Samantha for a camp . He gets a "universal remote" from an eccentric engineer named Morty (Christopher Walken), and finds he can literally co...

No Movies

We know if Rajinikanth movie releases there is no movie for two months after and one month before.These will surely show how Superstar rules the Tamil Industry .But there were some Hindi movies which came out with Guts "Joom Barabar Joom" ,but sadly we knew the opening it got. This will let movie junkies to leave with only option DVDs .I am sure I will watch many movies this period when there are no movies releasing this friday.But strategically if you think there is one movie which got released this Season and made money was Karupppasamy Kuthagikarar.The movie is a average kinda but still it had a good opening beacuse of the advertisement with Karan and Vadivelu in Hoardings.Fans would have thought it to be woven with Vdivelu magic,Miserabley its not.Its a different plot and movie slogs at the fag end.Still i would say it was saved only because it was released in this period one month before Shivaji Period.The Rajini Movie release date was not sure and producers are skeptica...

Life In Metro (2007)

I really wonder where these movies are taking us towards..I dont deny this movie is crafted on real and day to day life style in Metro.But this movie lets you a strong engrave which lets you with no answer on any means.Love,Career,Money,Success, and what next???But still this is one of the shocking movies made on mad metro life around sex,money and Love I wonder the way the bollywood movies directly getting adopted to Hollywood movies in their style and story telling especially Director Anurag Basu.Murder,Gangster and now with Metro. His earlier movies were adopted from Perfect Murder ,Unfaithful,Now I see some scenes from many Hollywood movies. The story revolves around five different pairs-Dharmendra-Nafisa,Konkanasen-Irfan Khan,Shiny Ahuja-Shilpashetty-Kaykaymenon -Kangana-Shamraan. Movie is about deviating from written Usual relation Husband Wife to Boy friend,Boss to Subordianate ,Non straight relations These pairs very beautifully crafted not to mention in their search of desires...

Shivaji Rocks Chennai

Image
Ya....I didnt miss Thalaivar for the first day,Got the ticket in Perambur Brindha on the first day.From the word go it was electric with 20000 kva transformer. Thalaivar is rocking in Sivaji.Thalivar looks young and energetic .One thing came to my mind is the dialogues which he delivers with some mocks and Humours. Like Yaaru "Moooru" Kaun hai "keeenai" I dont think we can find a nakkal Rajini in any of his movies.Shankar has given a new dimension of Rajini style and actions.Thats why we get different reviews all over (Source :India express Dated 17 .06.07/Edition Chennai) Common fans will expect the usual stuff which is missing but this is larger Rajini with his Macho masti and Magic. I can bet Shivaji will be a new dimension to Rajini and sure in the future (If at all Thalaivar acts /./) this is going to be the prototype for Rajini formula. Sujatha has contributed with his usual ellam therinja egambaram stuff with CRP and Enforcement directorate,Form 88c ....Sujat...
