The anthology tribute to the 100 year celebration of Indian cinema, 5 Sundarikal produced and co-directed by Amal Neerad is a surprise when you look at the works of the relatively unaccomplished directors. The directors who can be considered as the cream of the crop in the so called ‘New Generation’ trend proves that they… Continue reading 5 Sundarikal
Raanjhanaa
It’s an effort to show the selflessness and sincerity of that immature first love that most of us don’t really understand or care about. Director Anand L Rai’s latest venture Raanjhanaa is a variety in its romantic angle but a little too much when you look at the big canvas he created to present the… Continue reading Raanjhanaa
Theeya Velai Seiyyanum Kumaru
Director Sundar C’s latest film Theeya Velai Seiyyanum Kumaru, starring Siddharth and Hansika is a movie that will make you laugh here and there, but will definitely test your patience with its degree of nonsense comedy. If Santhanam was not there in the cast, the film would have been a horrible experience. The story is… Continue reading Theeya Velai Seiyyanum Kumaru

But having watched a scintillating thriller in the form of Neeraj Pandey’s “A Wednesday” (remade in tamil as “Unnai Pol Oruvan”) a few years back, the making of the film just didn’t inspire… Continue reading Thank You
ABCD – American Born Confused Desi
ABCD – American Born Confused Desi, the second film from director Martin Prakkat is a good attempt to create a Munnabhai type entertainer that has both enlightenment and entertainment. There is ample amount of entertainment as the makers have managed to keep the humor throughout the script, but the kind of phase shift in the… Continue reading ABCD – American Born Confused Desi
Left Right Left
Even though the movie ends on a dramatic knot, Left Right Left from Arun Kumar – Murali Gopi team has its moments throughout the narration. A script that never goes to a dull phase and power packed performances from the big cast is what makes this movie worth a watch. The disclaimer won’t be enough… Continue reading Left Right Left
After Earth
The kind of impression that M Night Shyamalan’s After Earth creates in the audience through the promos is somewhat a depiction of a possible danger in the future. But what sadly happens on screen is a very simple and typical motivational story that doesn’t have any solid grip in its content to make the movie… Continue reading After Earth
