Anegan

Ironically, the climax of Anegan tells us its two major drawbacks. Karthik’s character describes the love affair as ridiculous and Dhanush’s character mocks the awkward English pronounced by Karthik. These were the two easily distinguishable flaws in Anegan from K V Anand which is an overload of fiction. Doing somewhat similar to what Kunal Kohli… Continue reading Anegan

Saaradhi

The main flaw in the movie Saaradhi is its direction. A movie that should have been kept in a very realistic zone has been unnecessarily dragged into clichés and commercial flavors by the director. May be because of the underwhelming start the movie has, you will feel it as an overall good cinema by the… Continue reading Saaradhi

Roy

Writers block, characters having feelings that are personal to the writer etc are some familiar terms we get to hear in film based debates. The latest bollywood movie Roy starring Ranbir Kapoor as the title protagonist is a baffled execution of a theme that has the things I just mentioned. With an uninspiring parallel story… Continue reading Roy

Jupiter Ascending

The latest movie from the Wachowski’s , Jupiter ascending has stunning visuals and impressive usage of visual effects.

Directed by debutante Midhun Manuel Thomas, the movie Aadu Oru Bheegara Jeevi Aanu is a directorial failure. Midhun has managed to keep the dialogues in the cool and witty zone, but by overdoing the simple comedy with irrelevant exaggerations, the movie becomes a boring experience. The scarcity of laughable subplots with genuine humor was the… Continue reading Aadu Oru Bheegara Jeevi Aanu

Yennai Arindhaal

Ajith Kumar dancing, being emotional and Vivek doing a never before seen style of comedy (different from his usual); if I have to count the easily striking positives of the latest Gautham Menon movie Yennai Arindhaal, these will be the first three. In comparison with the usual flavors of a kollywood film, Yennai Arindhaal is… Continue reading Yennai Arindhaal

The Imitation Game

Every real life story made as a film, especially that happened during any of the world wars used to have a gloomy phase in the script. What surprised me about the Oscar nominated The Imitation Game was the fact that the movie was an entirely captivating idea. Conceived in a totally engaging way this movie… Continue reading The Imitation Game
