To like Lakshmi, the new movie directed by A L Vijay you have to be alien to genres and most importantly to the phenomenon called Prabhu Deva. Anybody with some taste in movies would have easily guessed something about the story of this dance movie and the sad part is that Vijay has not done… Continue reading Lakshmi

Even if you look at the story of the latest Mission Impossible movie, the ultimate agenda is diffusing a bomb that can cause a severe casualty. The reason why such movies work is mainly due to the convincing making and certain political subtexts that makes them something slightly edgier than a simple hero saving the… Continue reading Vishwaroopam 2

We were all blown away by the visual quality of the movie’s trailer which made most of… Continue reading Tik Tik Tik

Those of you who know the filmmaking style and motives of director Pa Ranjith would definitely know the aim and nature of the movie. On a cinematic level, Kaala is a refined version of Kabali. From Dalit politics to on the… Continue reading Kaala
