Nobody said it.This time it's all me.Life isn't like in the movies.Life... is much harder

,Aanmai Thavarel is a honest remake of Hollywood flick Trade.It has modulated itself to our own style. But this is one movie which has to be watched for being aware of the situation we live and move every day. The scene and the concept arent film and they daringly bring the dark shades and reality in a very explicit way.We never knew how the trafficking of women happens , we would be least bothered to know about that , why these things happen is a thing, which should be known to every one who lives away from home. Anmai Thavarel is a search of a lover boy Vetri for his girl Yamuna who is kidnapped by a group. The group kidnap a bunch of women in the enroute to auction them online. It becomes extremely difficult for Vetri to go with the pace of Cops , as he is losing time . He gets the help of Charles Antony ( Sampath) an ex cop to save his girl , who masters the plan for Vetri to save from the online auction. What unfolds and what we see on the way to auction is a shocking realit...

My friend is pissed off with my pronunciation on the word Ishqiya ,some how the movie was postponed on a other friends request for watching together.All set when we tried the tickets we had to run theatre to theatre for seats.I regret of not watching it on the first day.Ishqiya will be the best movie of the year (though very early to comment ) for its superlative screenplay and the culture.Great directors bring culture to their presentation and make the movie a history,Quentin Tarantino does that often.Vishal Bharadwaj should be very proud of his assistant Abishek chaubey on his maiden venture and first it was Vishal’s Kaminey and now his script Ishqiya turning out as the finest in the recent times. Ishqiya is a complex matrix of love and betrayal,Mafia .Set in Eastern uttarpradesh the movie moves around two individuals Khalujan (Nasurudeen shah ) and Bebbon (Arshad Warsi ) who run from their boses carrying his money and reach Krishna (Vidhyabalan) whose husband ,the duo’s old ...

After watchin this movie every body will understand its not easy to remake a movie .First thing is the right script and next is the right time for a remake ! Ninaithale Innikkum disappoints in both aspects.Ninaithale Innikkum remake of the Malayalam hit Classmates tries to invent scenes for Tamil and it lets class down with a poor screenplay and with a stage which doesn’t suit Tamil Cinema. Niniathale Innikkum is about a batch of college students ,their nostalgic moments in the past and their reunion after nine years.Sakthi ( Prithiviraj)and Vasu ( Karthik)always have problem at college between them selves and Siva is their common friend.Vasu wants to break Sakthi’s love with Meera(Priyamani) by making her stand against Siva in college election.Some unpleasant things happen and students reunite for a cause after nine years.During the reunion many truth evolve and many get answers. College politics is a culture in Kerala and it goes very much with General politics in Kerala.Here Colleg...

I was getting lots of Spam SMS about this movie and the poster of this movie was irritating for me .It read “ Tamil cinemavai mattra vanthirukkum oru thiraipadam “ meaning “ Movie which has come to change tamil cinema “.If you ask me frankly its so rubbish and idiotic to think as such even for publicity .I would definitely agree this movie had a different space but it had nothing new other than the characters because we don’t see any known faces. Meiporul is a thriller which is shot entirely in USA.Sam( Krish Bala) and Devi (Anusha) are happy couple who live in USA.Things change when Sam meets Rajan who predicts the things through his Extra sensory perception.Rajan tells about Sam’s death ,horrified Rajan starts acting in a different manner.Things unwinds when Sam’s friends brings these things to a different light. One thing about this movie is that the actors struggle to act and even to spell the dialogues.They act as if they are acting !.It was disturbing through out the movie when y...

If you ask me any day I would say I am a Madhavan fan,I don’t know why but some how his earlier films have always fascinated me ,But I would not accept his movies off late were good.Because it was crap selection of movies he was doing.Thank God he did Yavarum Nalam I would say.Yavarum Nalam has turned as one of the best thrillers made in Recent times for its screenplay and some amazing performance .It still steals your heartbeat with an innovative concept and some real chilling moments .This movie can scare you down and bring to edge of the seat in the later part of the movie. Yavarum Nalam tells the series of incidents which take place in a house bought by Madhavan.The women at his home are eccentrically addicted to TV serials .Things go wrong for Madhavan from the day one at the home and slowly he realises some thing seriously wrong at home.A TV serial watched by his family members resembles his day to day life and at one point he realises it exactly coincides with the future events ...

Some times weird imagination of the movie will take us by shock and will entertain us.This was one of the movie which was recommended by Ashok and I had the chance to watch this movie in his DVD . A son who gets a chance to communicate with his Dad who is dead 30 years ago through old Radio.He speaks to his dad and alters the series of incidents which took place for the thirty years ,The movie begins as Frank Sullivan (Dennis Quaid ) firefighter and family man who spends his nights talking to strangers over a HAM radio.He is a die hard of fan of Mets .Movie moves to 1999 ,when Frank's son John has grown up into (Jim Caviezel ) and become a police officer,accidentally he gets his Dad’s Radio which was dormant for years. When he finds some one is speaking in the radio,John realises its his Dad who was dead thirty years ago.Every night he speaks with him to tell him what had happened and they investigate on the serial murder which happened in 70’s .It might be funny to elaborate the...

“He let things come to him, and then he made up his mind ... one of his characteristics was that he really enjoyed playing the devil's advocate. Conservatives were convinced that he was a ferocious Nazi, and ferocious Nazis were convinced he was an unreconstructed conservative. He was neither “-Nina von Stauffenberg History writes Von Stauffenburg as one of the prolific and leading Nazi officer of his times whose his organizational abilities, and his radical revolutionary approach but end to inactivity in the Nazi resistance force.He was one man who from the first believed that the War is lost and he was the reason behind the operation Valkyrie.His professional approach and his resolve was the reason which made him to act accordingly to avoid unnecessary blood shed and further damage to Germany. Operation Valkyrie is about the secret mission initiated by Von Stauffenberg to assassinate Adolf Hitler and avoid uprising in Germany after Hitler .It also had aimed to bring an alte...

To my surprise there were no movie halls in Chennai which showed Bommalattam 4 shows .All the halls showed only morning shows or the afternoon shows which was very difficult for me to make it at the first two weeks.Some how I managed this Saturday at Satyam .People said Bharathiraja is back with Bommalattam.He is one of the undisputed legend of Tamil Cinema and when some promos about this movie came I wasn’t much interested as I felt both Bharathiraja and K.B had lost their midas touch .Bommalattam could have been a landmark movie if some of the things were looked with different trend.Bommalattam proves why Bharathiraja is a legend in movie making.And Bommalattam is about The man NanaPatekar and its him who had given the undeniable power till the end. Bommallattam is about Successful movie Director Rana ( Nanapatekar) who is suspected by Cops for death of new comer Krishna who incidentally plays the heroine in Rana’s movie.CBI officer interrogates Rana and seeks explanation for the mur...

I am not a fan of Beatles or I haven’t heard their songs much ,only a slightest knowledge about their songs are with me .But when I wrote some thing about the song God and Yoko which was sung by John Lennon I was reading quiet a bit about their band .Previously I was aware that it was for John Lennon’s funeral that most number of people gathered.But I wasn ’t aware of his death and how abouts.When I was going through the details about the band previously I could learn how people were mesmerised with not only on Beatles songs but also on their life style. Chapter 27 is all about the assassin of John Lenon the legendary Lead of Beatles which happened in 1980 by Mark David Chapman.It travels in to the mind of Mark David Chapman.The last three days of the Mission of the killer. Jared Leto gained 67 pounds to play Chapman and he looked very similar like Chapman.Chapman waits for Lennon for three days and when he meets he gets a autograph in Lenon ’s latest album Double fantasy after which...

Back again to halls for Movies! A week of no movies in theatres made me feel I was doing nothing.How stupid it was for me to think as such.But intentionally I wanted to give a skip of some movies like Durai ,Babylon A.D ,it didn’t gather any good reviews too.This time worth a watch with Body of lies. Ridley scott is an inspiring maker and he is back after American Gangster,And this time with Leonardo De Caprio and Russell crowe. Roger Ferris (Dicaprio) is a CIA operative in Iraq who tries to uncover a Jihad terrorist Saleem who operates from Jordon.His boss Ed Hoffman (Russel Crowe ) helps him to reach out AlSaleem network through series of plans .Ferris seeks the help of Jordan Intelligence Chief Hani (Mark Strong ) to reach Saleem.Things travel from U.S to middle east and series of events make up this body of lies. Body of Lies is far from being a great movie like Black hawk down but its definitely a racy movie which can make the pulse faster .If there is one actor we audience seen f...

The Bank Job is a moving ,thrilling and shocking movie which can get in to your nerves so easily from the very beginning of the movie.Lots of movies have been made on Bank Robbery but this one comes with varied intentions of varied people in the robbery.Its always great to Watch Jason Stathom playing the criminal beating the cops.How much time we have watched this man doing this ? but still he has lot to offer in this similar roles. The Bank Job opens with numerous characters,at the centre we are shown with Martine offering Terry to rob a bank in London.Terry (Jason Statham)puts a team to break the bank and when they do it,the whole intention of Martine (Saffrom Burrows)to rob comes as a shocker to London.Martine was persuaded to loot the bank by the MI-5 agents and it becomes a total trap for many of the high profile people as their identity is at stake because of the safety locker boxes. “The Bank Job” is a movie more-or-less based on the 70’s Walkie Talkie robbery in London when a g...
