Angadi Theru (2010) ****

Image
In these three years since the release of Veyil ,I met Vasantha Balan thrice and I tried to ask him about the Movie Angadi Theru .But he always sounded low and he always projected what he was not.Last time when I met him in “ Paa “ screening, I told him about the “ Kathailagai pesum “ song from Angadi Theru and I could really see his face getting brighter.He should have been very energetic about this creation.I don’t know why this movie was delayed but this movie had come in the right time for Tamil Cinema.After repeatedly hearing the movie’s songs for nearly eight months I couldn ’t wait to watch the movie though I was expecting a emotional ride for two hours.I bow to Vasanthabalan ’s original and brave attempt Angadi theru for its realism and sensation. It’s a heavy walk in Angadi theru ,its about two sales people who fell in love amidst the inhuman work culture and treatment at a TNagar Super store .The film is inspired from a popular TNagar store which was in news...

Munthinam Parthene ( 2010 ) **

Munthinam Parthane is a movie directed by Magizh Thirumeni .Assistant of Gautham Menon.Lots of shades of Gautham Menon,Even the locales.But he believes in Tamil dialogues to some extend than his Boss.Muthinam Parthane is not a bad attempt for its outlook.I liked the director’s name ! His maiden venture in to Films starts of with a lovestory which lacks clarity. Sanjay starts of the movie narrating his journey from his late twenties till he gets married.Sanjay falls in love with many girls but he never finds his soulmate .When he accepts some body he realizes his love and concern for the past relation. Some how the movie goes off in a unclear fashion which actually goes terribly wrong about the screenplay.Sanjay settles down with what he was given to him than going in search of the girl. One fine thing about this movie is characterization ,Director had built some realistic characters around the main characters who actually make this movie close to interesting.The character of Ilang...

Katcheri Aarambam (2010) * 1/2

Image
What the hell has happened to Jeeva ??? Did he really wanted to act in this movie.It looked a thorough entertainer like SMS .But sadly exactly after a year of SMS Katcheri Arambam comes from Jeeva and it makes a very normal rather a boring movie .I always believed Jeeva is the finest actor among the young breeds but just that he isn ’t being lucky enough to draw the big Directors.Even the Mediocre production value SMS was a huge entertainer because of Jeeva and Santhanam .No body could deny it is one of the best movie of last year . Katcheri Arambam becomes a usual commercial movie with Masala ,Don but told in a lighter manner. Paari ( Jeeva ) falls in love with Mathi ( Poonam Baweja ) from the moment he lands in Chennai. Mathi is being chased by Sivamani ( Chakravarthy ) who is a Don of Chennai.He forces her to marry him and he tortures and harms the people who even speaks to Mathi . Paari plays a plot to get his love .End the Villain gets Gyaan through a lengthy...
