Azhagarsaamiyin Kuthirai (2011) ***

Image
I feel very satisfied when the plot is adopted from Tamil literature. I loved Sasi ’s Poo and now Suseendran ’s Azhagarsaamiyin Kuthirai adopted from Writer Baskar Sakthi ’s work, is a simple and fantastic movie of goodness and humanity. Its been some time I had a good time on a Sunday afternoon which pushes me to write the review after watching the movie. Suseendran is here to stay , simply he is growing movie by Movie.The best thing about him is that he has got the thinking to look simple , rather than going big and failing miserably , like Susee Ganesan . Azhagarsamiyin Kuthirai is about a Village , which is preparing for its annual Azhagar Festival where the deity parade happens around the Village. The wooden horse goes missing and the blame game starts. The villagers manage to snatch a real horse which actually belongs to a person Azharsamy whose bread is dependent on ...

Yutham Sei (2011) ** 1/2

Image
Myskin has preset style which he cant change, he is refining himself in that style rather not trying any thing else. I could predict the core of the movie right from the word go that its going to be a cheap pleasures of high society like he did in his other movies. I sincerely think he should take different inspirations for his movies apart from women being exploited ,kidnapped and saved. Yutham sei is a much refined movie with respect to his performance and his work. But he tries to put forth a compulsive scary camera before audience which gets repeated in all his movie with a violin background. Yutham sei is an investigation about serial killings which happens in the city. J.Krishnamoorthy a underplayed CBCID cop is handed over with the responsibility to go behind the killings who is in his personal agony of his sisters whereabouts who went missing mysteriously. Things get connected so shockingly but it makes tougher for the cops to locate where the real culprit of the serial killer ...

Manmadhan Ambu(2010) **

Image
Sincerely some thing is very much wrong with Ulaganayagan.I think he carries a very strong head of not knowing what is needed to make a good entertainer or a commercial hit.I presume he has been flaunted about his skills and realization, now he pulls the directors name to add in his cards just for the sake.Where is Ravikumar in the whole movie.What is his role? . Accepted this is not a bad movie but where are the standards which were conveyed to us. Mannar,Madhan,Ambu the three make the Manmathan Ambu.Interestingly titled and we get the excitement of the movie in the first fifteen minutes when Ambu ( Trisha ) is suspected by his fiancé Madhan ( Madhavan) who is a businessman.Madhan appoints Mannar ( Kamal ) to spy on Ambu when she leaves for a holiday with her friend Deepa ( Sangeetha ) to let him know about the secret affairs.How this complexity unfolds to a different relationships is Manmathan Ambu.The movie fades away when we get in to the cruise. Kamal has written screenplay and st...

Eesan (2010) **

Image
Eesan is the second movie for Sasikumar as a director after his cult classic Subramaniapuram.After making one of milestone movie in Tamil Cinema,what is least expected is a movie with a brilliance.We are not running along with hypes but its not needed to get in to a different space .for the sake of versatility.Sasikumar lacks the sophistication in his movie,he lacks the Urban touch in a movie which speaks mostly about the Super rich spoiled society.Sasikumar has forgotten his razor sharp screenplay which he presented in his earlier movie.I have no intention of comparing with any movie ,but Eesan is a movie which lacks Good editing,Screenplay and plot. Eesan is about the super rich spoiled brats who ruin the lives of women .Sezhiyan(Vaibhav) ,son of State minister Deivanayagam is a fellow who spends his time with his fellow friends in pubbing and flirting.They ruin many women lives and they hide the crimes with the power of Sezhiyan’s dad .Sengayya ( Samuthirakani ) an IPS officer is f...

Nandhalala(2010) ***

Image
I have to ask Mr.Myskin why he didn’t credit Kikujuro in the title card after all you have designed even the posters copying from Kikujiro.Why the new age directors are relectant is giving the credit to the orginal version.The concept of a story is the crux of any movie than the story or the screen play.All handled well the movie comes out as a entertaining product.I was told he gave the credit in the audio release which is a year ago and now he has lived with the delayed release of the movie and he didn’t want to give to original version.But for Nandalala is poetic as per the Bharathiar lines.Very very poetic title ,the movie traverses the emotions of human being in the form of journey. Bhaskar Mani a mentally challenged person and Aswin Ram a kid meets in the journey in search of their respective Mothers. The journey and motive of their search are radically opposite and both come up with their own experiences and attitude problems to get along.Both meet up with many sides human faces...

Mynaa ( 2010) ***

Image
Some times you might even forget what you have been doing for years,Things might get mighty and unavoidable than the routine duties.Thats what is happening with me for the past two months.I have been searching for time to write reviews for movies I watched .All said, Myna has lived to some extent on its expectation and hype.Myna wouldn’t be called as a cult or great movie but definitely it gains a commercial and critical success which a director dreams for. For years Prabu Solomon has been trying to convey some thing to the audiences,But he has been giving half baked stories like King,Lee,Kokki.But if you look at all these there isn’t a direct narration or plot in his movie.He has a style and stuff to present but all along he has been lacking perfection to present as a complete product .With Myna he has improved his presentation and core plot which struck deep in the viewer’s experience. The success of any film maker lies in the screen play ,to me Prabu Solomon wins in the last thirt...
