Nallathor Veenai Seidhen by S.Haridhass (Review)

Story: A sentimental story with high impact message. A simple story with an outstanding wrap up. A reality about Karma well visualized in this movie. Good plotting and nice turning point. Sweet, simple and meaningful movie.

Cast: The main characters were not named in this movie. Lingkeswaran Maniam played main character as a father of a child who learnt the actual meaning of life. Good portrayal of emotion and self realization. Good benchmark between before and after key incident. Velarasan Morrthy as a Blind Man. Good facial expression, nice imitation of a blind man. But I've seen blind man swinging the stick harder when walking on straight road while he was just touching down lightly. Yet he did very well in his role. Kuben Mahadevan as a snatch thief. A very significant character. The key of the whole movie. His presence was short but very strong. Very convincing acting. I have always admired his acting. And there were few supporting character played by Sham Karthik, Thisha Visvanathan, Danya Sajita Varma, Manimala Krishnan and Deviga.

Screenplay: Good transitions throughout the movie. With limited resources they came up with a very good product. No excessive graphics or overdone sequences. Good intro scene with some humour. I loved the way they shoot the accident scene. Simple and meaningful. And the best is climax. The helmet spinning and the blood spill were superb. Awesome climax. The cinematography was good. Nice shades and angle. Especially motions during the accident scene. But it was slightly draggy from the time the blind man walks till the home scene and post accident scene. Something we can compromise since it is an emotional scene.

Music: The music composed by Jey Raggaveindra. Two songs which boost the perfect emotion for the movie. Nice violin instrumental too.

Plus Point: Story, Cast, Cinematography and acting

Minus Point: Slightly draggy

Verdict: Nice plot with very valuable message

Thirumanam Ennum Nikkah by Aneesh (Review)

Story: A romantic comedy based on unconditional love. Most part of the movie was placed in Islamic background and values. Islamic values were portrayed in a very beautiful way.  Nice and decent first half. But the movie's story was a bit out of direction in second half. The rational behind the conclusion is still ambiguous. There is a unnecessary conflict in the movie which will drag the climax. Climax could have been done better . It was a creative story but bad plotting.

Cast: Jai as Vijayraghavan Chaari/ Abu Bakkar. Nothing much to say of his role. Just the same boy next door look with his normal gestures and humour. His dialogue deliverance was good but nothing much to say about his acting. Nazriya Nazim as Priya/Aisya. She plays lady love of Jai in the movie. She was cute and bubbly. But it will remind you of same Nazriya from Raja Rani. Nothing more or less. Heebah Patel was another lead lady which played Nazima. Others were supporting character played by many not so well known casts.

Screenplay: The movie had major editing problem which made the movie out of track in second half. I think the director had some other ending in mind but changed it in last minute. Too bad, it was not that aligned with the first half. The romantic scenes were sweet and nice. But I don't get what was the issue behind the conflict faced by the main character in the movie. Why it was made to be seen intense? The first song sequence, the rain was uneven and quite obvious. I think it's mainly due to cinematography. The angles were not right and the camera quality was average. But I was kind of impressed with the art direction for Kanukkul Pothi Vaippen song. The colour combination of the Golu background and costumes matched well. Songs were a spoiler in many circumstances. The song sequence was a bit old school. But I loved the way the director portrayed the scene where Jai learns about Islam. But at the end of the movie I felt that the title of the movie doesn't match the movie.

Music: The music composed by M.Ghibran. The songs were good but the sequence were average

Plus Point: First Half, Romance and Comedy

Minus Point: Second Half, Story and Editing

Verdict: An average movie which could have been done better with more rational in second half.
