Old wine in old bottle: Ajith’s latest movie Veeram is that recreation of those films which worked 10 years back. Wafer thin story line comprising of plastic sentiments, awkward humor and a whole lot of dusty fights to showcase the guts of our macho hero. Apart from some Santhanam jokes and stylized visualization of rough… Continue reading Veeram

Jilla
Everything that is needed for a so called Mass movie is there for the latest movie Jilla starring Mohanlal and Vijay. It is supposed to be a festival entertainer to please the fans of the lead actors and in that sense the movie gets it bulls eye. With all the typical flavors we are used… Continue reading Jilla
47 Ronin
Its an attempt to create that “300” like inspiring tale about of a group of warriors who fought for their leader. Based on the Japanese legend about the group of Samurai, this film couldn’t really create the depth of sacrifice in its two hour long narration that moved in a dull way. They have tried… Continue reading 47 Ronin
Endrendrum Punnagai
Endrendrum Punnagai or I should rather say a shallow interpretation of Farhan Akthar’s debut venture Dil Chahta Hei. While the hindi movie was quite successful in carrying the heavy emotional baggage with its real characters and sensible egos, Endrendrum Punnagai fails in creating such relatable characters and feelings. The story revolves around the central protagonist… Continue reading Endrendrum Punnagai
The Secret Life of Walter Mitty

The secret life of Walter Mitty definitely has this unique day dreaming idea inserted in between the cliched inferior feelings of our central protagonist. But with a lot of usual recipe… Continue reading The Secret Life of Walter Mitty
Tom Yum Goong 2
Having seen the first part of the movie Tom Yum Goong, I wasn’t expecting any heart melting emotions or twists that will make the viewer go wow. The demand was indeed for some raw thrills and their failure in delivering this quintessential action part makes this movie a downer. Second installment yet again has the elephant being… Continue reading Tom Yum Goong 2
Walking with Dinosaurs
The impression the trailer created was a Wall E type silent narrative and when you start to hear voices expressing the feelings of the dinosaurs it will definitely take away the challenging part which we expected. But still the only thing that keeps you engaged in this less than 90 minutes cinema that goes through… Continue reading Walking with Dinosaurs
Biriyani
The most entertaining part of Venkat Prabhu’s Karthi starer Biriyani was the last two or three minutes where they show us the bloopers of the movie. I am not saying the movie was not at all fun, but it was in a kind of an awkward space where the director seems to be in a confusion… Continue reading Biriyani
