Arrambam

On the positive side, you can definitely say that Ajith’s Arrambam is free of typical hero worshipping. But when you look at what they have presented in front of us, it’s quite repetitive. Vishnuvardhan has these trademark frames to visualize events with extra style and Arrambam becomes watchable because of this. The story here revolves… Continue reading Arrambam

Pottas Bomb

It’s a social preach without much cinematic qualities worth mentioning. The writer-director has given full justice to the name of the movie Pottas Bomb by making it an actual Pottas Bomb which won’t create any angst. The theme can be considered as socially relevant but the script and the making is uninspiring and charmless. The… Continue reading Pottas Bomb

The plot here… Continue reading Escape Plan

The plot revolves… Continue reading Nadodi Mannan

With solid technical backup and more focus on… Continue reading Rush
