Kattappanayile Rithwik Roshan

As an entertainer movie, Nadirshah’s second directorial Kattappanayile Rithwik Roshan is in the same zone of his first film Amar Akbar Anthany. The packaging of the movie is pretty similar and with numerous humorous moments unfolding in almost every scene, the unappealing story never becomes an evident low point and the film succeeds in delivering… Continue reading Kattappanayile Rithwik Roshan

Meenkuzhambum Manpaanayum

The first movie of Jayaram’s son Kalidas, Actor Prabhu playing his father’s role and Ulakanayakan Kamal Haasan doing a cameo; there were enough reasons for me to watch Meenkuzhambum Manpaanayum. But after 10 or 15 minutes into the movie, I sort of sensed the danger. It’s a totally immature fantasy comedy that has no high… Continue reading Meenkuzhambum Manpaanayum

Achcham Yenbadhu Madamaiyada

Achcham Yenbadhu Madamaiyada looked very promising in its first half and a good chunk of the second half was also impressive, but the film’s climax was way too over the top that you sort of curse the maker for ruining it like that (At least I did). With every Goutham Menon elements abundant in the… Continue reading Achcham Yenbadhu Madamaiyada

If you analyze Abhishek Kapoor’s Rock On, the structure of the story was never really a surprisingly fresh one. But it was the organic development of music which we saw in the silver screen that… Continue reading Rock On 2

He belongs to that percentage of the audience who are familiar to these characters only through movies and therefore there won’t be any actual comic vs movie comparisons. Doctor strange, Marvel’s new… Continue reading Doctor Strange

Swarna Kaduva

Babu Janardhanan is a script writer who is known for writing films that has contemporary relevance. Even his flop films were based on news that we have seen during those times. With the movie Swarna Kaduva, he along with director Jose Thomas (Jos Thomaas) creates another satire which looks like a fusion of Babu Janardhanan’s… Continue reading Swarna Kaduva

Shivaay

Shivaay is an extremely stretched out hero worshipping movie that moves in a really sluggish pace. It is almost a 3 hour long movie and I can guarantee you that you might feel like you have spent half the day inside the theater. Built around a father-daughter relationship idea, Shivaay just inst a logically convincing… Continue reading Shivaay

Kodi

The promos of Kodi may have had that complete mass appeal to its credit, but when it comes to the cinema it is a little more sensible and sensitive. If you are expecting another Velai Illa Pattadhari from Dhanush, Kodi’s aim might disappoint you. Conveying a relevant subject of greedy political rivalry with all filmyness,… Continue reading Kodi
