When compared to the last fantasy genre Jayam Ravi tried (Miruthan) and the lackluster debut movie of director Lakshman (Romeo Juliet), Bogan is definitely a better movie. Every entertainer Tamil movie has this constrains of depicting certain portions in certain way and those clichés clearly drag Bogan backwards. With a terrific Arvind Swamy and an… Continue reading Bogan
Kaabil
We all knew what the entire story was from the two trailers of Kaabil. May be even Sanjay Gupta knew the fact that nobody is going to praise the story of Kaabil when it gets released. To be fair, on paper Kaabil is very much an average material as it is that same old common… Continue reading Kaabil
Raees
The creative edge and the commercial disadvantage of Raees is that it is a gangster film with a relatively sensible amount of realism to its credit. The mould of the story is pretty much in the same space of the 80’s Salim-Javed films. But the timely change in the presentation of drama and the way… Continue reading Raees
Munthirivallikal Thalirkkumbol

Because of the repetitiveness in the preaching format of the film, there… Continue reading Jomonte Suvisheshangal
XXX: Return of Xander Cage
It wouldn’t have taken much longer for D J Caruso and Scott Frazier to narrate the story of XXX: Return of Xander Cage to Vin Diesel. The plot of the film is that thin. It is basically a less convincing story that has been written in a way to showcase back to back set pieces.… Continue reading XXX: Return of Xander Cage
Ok Jaanu
The millennial approach towards a committed relationship was nicely presented by Mani Ratnam in Ok Kanmani in 2015. Mani Ratnam’s long time assistant Shaad Ali has remade this film under the title Ok Jaanu and to be honest it hasn’t lost its key points. The quintessential on screen chemistry of the lead pair may not… Continue reading Ok Jaanu
Bairavaa
Bairavaa is the usual masala hero centric film from Bharathan that follows everything that is typical in this kind of movies. With occasional punch dialogues and over the top heroism, the film flows in an expected speed and what you get at the end is a nearly three hour long average film with no big… Continue reading Bairavaa
