Raavanan ***

Image
Raavan brings Technical brilliance at its believable and reachable point for Tamil Cinema. Raavan redifines the mythological inspiration in a celluloid form with its imagination and intelligence.Truly this movie is one of the landmark in Vikram’s character and different from his earlier version since he has changed his much praised dialogue tone and accent.Vikram has just been very mighty and powerful and has over taken the creator of the movie.Manirathnam should have been watching quietly a hungry wild beast when Vikram was performing rather than moulding him to his frame.But though Raavanan looks mighty the movie is weak for its simplified direct inspiration and very closed approach of Mani Sir. Raavanan is an intelligent but simplified resemblance from Ramayanam ,the motivation and emotions are similar with Raavan being the powerful and true human being than Raaman .Veera ( Vikram ) the extremist who is been searched by SP Dev (Prithivi Raj ) and team for his rebellious an...

Rajneeti (2010) ***

Image
Unwanted hypes might spoil the true creations also,this movie kind of escaped from getting failed.Its a generalistic option to go for a viral marketing nowadays for the movies before release,but this movie team opted for a lousy channel with a lousy theme to market .Some how the movie was much beyond it what they had emphasized and it was saved.Rajneeti adopted from Mahabaratha,Little bit of God father gives the gripping mood for its racy screen play and performance of the lead characters. Its difficult to first get in to the movie until you get to realize this is based on some characters which you knew,For example the character of Bharati Rai (Nikhila Trikha) whose character is from Kunthi Devi who gives birth to Ajay Devgan resembling Karna becoming the rival for the family of Bharathi Rai .This is a political gang war between one of the biggest Political family of a state.its about revenge,Love and hatred engulfed in the form of Politics .Ranbir takes the lead with his Mamaji ...

Singam( 2010) ***

Image
Singam roars,Definitely the movie is a Masala Briyani prepared well.No nonsense a typical Tamil film with out and out Action and Romance Singam succeeds and comes in as a rescue for this summer.Singam directed by Hari looks for the safest bet in all the aspects with very intelligently handled action sequences. Duraisingam a honest and aggressive sub Inspector of Police at Nallur village is the most respected and beloved Cop in and around the village.Mayilvahanam ( Prakashraj) who is a Mob in Chennai tries to brawl with Singam at Nallur but he fails so badly because of the power and influence Singam had earned in his village,Mayilvahanam returns back to chennai and brings Singam by transferring him to Chennai to take revenge at his fort.Singam is humiliated by the Mayilvahanam by restricting him to take action against the illegal activities of Mayilvahanam ,which Mayilvahanam effects through his link in Police Department.Singam stands against Mayilvahanam after he meets Kavya(Anushka) w...

Kites * 1/2 (2010)

Image
Two months of No movies .Tight schedules to keep, House shifting and I was left with no time for Blogging. Understandably change of activities but I was carving for a movie.Kites had bad reviews but I expected this movie for Gusty look of Hritik and trust on Anurag’s characters.Sadly this movie ended with nothing and absolutely nothing. Kites is a story about J (What does J stand for ?? Even in passport its J ,So funny ) who falls in love with Linda .who is incidentally engaged with Tony the son of Bobby who owns the biggest casino in Los Vegas. Tony’s sister is madly in love with J and J is there for her money. At one point of time he couldn’t take up his thirst for money and goes behind the Girl .Things mess up and the duo escape from Los Vegas. Things were very good till this. Poetic, acceptable, Refreshing and all but it the second half had nothing to say and it just showed up the end with a unconvincing completion of work. Kites fails badly for the incomplete work in the screenpla...
