Ethir Neechal by RS Durai Senthil Kumar (Review)

Story:The film has a very simple and nice story with good comedy, romance and sports inspiration elements.This movie will definitely be a break for sivakarthikeyan. The director instilled quite a lot of moral values in the movie and definitely this is he best comedy movie of Sivakarthikeyan. There is no lag in the plotting, it was very well planned story. Good turning point and climax. First half was something new, but second half you may have come accross similar storyline with other sports inspirational movie. Totally commercial. Enjoy it to max!!

Cast: The movie has a good casting. Sivakarthikeyan was seen as full fledge commercial hero in this movie except that there are no ridiculous action scenes. I'm not going to reveal the name of the character since it is the highlight of the movie. But very well done job by Sivakarthikeyan. He is starting to outperform himself as a good actor. Of course he is best in humour and that worked well in this movie. Priya anand played Geetha Miss the teacher. She is the lead lady. She is simply gorgeous. the chemistry between siva and Priya anand was superb. Then there is a very prominent role by the name valli done by nandita (Attakathi fame). An inspiring character who only had scope in second half. but totally worth it. Satish was incharge of comedy most of the time. he played Siva's bestfriend named Peter. Supporting roles done by Jayaprakaash, Ravi Prakaash, suza kumar and manobala.

Screenplay: It has an awesome screenplay. the way the movie brought up was good. It has a good ups and downs to gain audience attention. Especially romance on how sivakarthikeyan tries to flirt Priya anand. It was really good. The comedy was instant that's what made it special. Starting with a minor issue (The name) till achieving something major. but the marathon scene was pretty usual. But yet special. Good cinematography especially Velicham poove song. There were no draggy feeling except Valli's flashback. But fully it was taken in a very commercial manner. only first half and hour the song transition was poor. but other than that it was good.

Music: Composed by Anirudh, an added value to the movie. all the songs were a boost for the movie

Plus Point: Good story, screenplay, music, cinematography, moral message and casting

Minus Point: Draggy at some part.

Verdict: Worth watching at cinema. Will make your day with its essence.

Kedi Billa Kiladi Rangga by Pandiraj (Review)

Story: A family entertainer with comedy background. Can be said a multistarer. The director delivered a good moral value. But the comedy was just average and nothing much about the storyline. A good friendship story and sweet romance. A little bit of politics masala. The plotting was unorganized. Just an average family entertainer.

Cast: Vimal and Sivakarthikeyan played the lead man as best friends. Vimal played Kedi Kesavan @ theni while Siva played  Pathai murugan. Both played comical role. Unemployed youths who wants venture into politics. For vimal, nothing new about his character. Just like Kalavani's role. But I feel he dominated movie compared to sivakarthikeyan. While siva and his dialogues with ample of humour to make all laugh. But maybe he don't have much scope to show his acting skill in the movie. we can expect more in ethir neechal. Bindhu Madhavi played vimal's lady love while regina cassandra played siva's lady love. Both of them had an awesoe characterisation. They'll be quite a lot of surprise in Bindhu's role. And regina is so adorable. Parotta Soori handled the major comedy part and he is the best at it. He never fails to make people laugh with his spontaneous lines.

Screenplay: First flaws i realized was the movie had a bad editting. there were few scenes in the movie, especially conversation part were it did not have proper continuation or links. Comedy scenes was good but it could have done even better. Nice song picturizing. Had a good climax with a meaningful message. But prior to that the movie just running out of control with no direction. The romance between Regina and Siva was well done. But vimal's scenes tried to dominate siva's part quite a lot eventhough was not that interesting.

Music: Composed by Yuvan Shankar Raja, and it was super good. especially suda suda thural.

Plus Point: Comedy, Heroines, Moral Value

Minus Point: Story and editing

Verdict: Overall the movie was not the best of Pandiraj but not bad and suitable to be watched with family members.

Vathikuchi by Kinslin (Review)

Story: A thriller with multi narration in place. A very good story with a well planned plot. Has a good multi narration which relates to a single person. Full of action, thriller and Momentum that will keep stick to your seat till the end. Even the romance in the movie was cute. It will sure gain your curiosity what's going to happen next. Just that it was taken in a very commercial manner.

Cast: The movie was produced by A R Murugadoss in association with Fox Star Studios. Directed by Kinslin, former assistant Director of Murugadoss. Dhileeban, brother of A R Murugadoss played the lead role. Maybe the look of the lead guy was not important for the movie, yet he could have performed better. He has a poor body language and an average acting skill. This is suppose to be an action movie and of course the hero suppose to have a very good gesture when it comes to fighting especially when it was told that the character learned fighting before confronting  the antagonist. But he was quite bad at that except during climax scene, there were some improvement. Could have placed  Jiiva or Vishal for that role. Anjali played the heroine role. she played a comical role and she was best at it. It's like usual Anjali who dares to confront anyone. Saranya played the hero's supportive mother. Of course she was good at that as well as usual. Sampath, Jayaprakaash, Jagan(Chitti Babu in Ayan), Vatsan and a few more played the antagonist role. Due to some circumstances hero was pulled into their lives and all of them were in rage to kill him.

Screenplay: This movie has a very strong Story, Screenplay and Editing. The story was very well narrated with all needed elements. it has it's good hike and drop to keep the momentum going. The screenplay was very good and the parallel incidents was well shown. You wont feel the movie dragged long. And the editing of multinarration was so organized. So the audience wont get confused throughout the movie. The last 15 minutes of the movie  will be the highlight. How the lead man plans his strategy to  stay alive. But the fight sequence was ridiculous. At one point the audience would forget the existence of gravity during fight sequence. If the stunt Choreography was good, the movie would be one of the most action packed movie in Tamil Cinema. It was an eye irritation. Song sequence were average, no costly foreign scenes. The song was attached with the flow of the movie. Just that the movie was made in a very commercial manner. Should have been a realistic movie. Quite good direction for a first timer.

Music: Composed by M Ghibran. The songs were superb. This is a good raise for M.Ghibran after Vaagai Sooda Va. Especially Kuru Kuru song. Awesome.

Plus Point: Story, Screenplay, Editing, Music

Minus Point: Fight scenes, hero's acting.

Verdict: If you are fan of K.V Anand or A R Murugadoss, you may watch it at cinema. It's a commercial thriller for common audience.

Paradesi by Bala (Review)

Story:The film is based on real life incidents that took place before independence in the 1930s. The film has been adapted from Eriyum Panikadu a Tamil translation of the 1969 novel Red Tea by Paul Harris Daniel which deals with Harris's encounters with enslaved tea plantation workers in the Madras Presidency in colonial India. Another stereotypical Bala movie with primitive characters and slow paced story with an open ended climax. Full of native speech, simplicity, savage, small community of pre-independence and thriller. Exactly the same genre with his earlier movies.

Cast: Atharva dons the role of native newspreader for his village named Rasa. Major makeover from his earlier movies. Of course Bala at his best of making handsome actors as ugly as possible. Quite a lot of scope for Atharva to show is acting skills. A job well done. His speech and body language was well polished. But it's just that we cant see much difference in terms of characterization with other lead characters in Bala's earlier movies. Nothing special or innovative.Then there is Vedhika as Atharva's lady love named Angamma. A cute character with a bubbly role. Of course this is something new for audience seeing her as Angamma since all we have seen her was as Kutty Pisaase. Danshika as maragadham, hutmate and working colleague of Atharva at tea estate. She was shown as an iron lady and a mother of a child in this movie. Her character doesn't differ much with her role in Aravaan. But still she did a very good job throughout the movie.Then we have some supporting character done by Pasupathi, Rithwika, Uday Karthik and many others. Uma Riaz Khan was said to play Atharva's mother but there was not even her shadow in that movie.

Screenplay: True bala fan would say this is a remarkable movie. but as a normal audience we will feel why is he not coming out of the shell. The same shade of story, screenplay, music taste and even cinematography. At one point I was confused whether the music done by G.V.Prakaash or Illaiyaraja. I'm sure this is the director's demand. It can be said a mixture of Pithamagan and Naan Kadavul. Ugly village people who wanted a purpose of life. It ends just like that and audience wont realize it ended. As if there is no conclusion. If there is no conclusion then why pull that story 2 hours? could have end it in 30 Minutes. Only plus point I noticed was realism. The director tried to show beat up scene, village events and the people as realistic as possible. but this not first time he had done that. All his movie has the same theme, of course it would look realistic.

Music: Composed by G.V.Prakaash Kumar. Only on song worth listening. others were just a reflection Director Bala.

Plus Point: Realism and Originality in story

Minus Point: Bala's stereotype(screenplay, music, cinematography,characters)

Verdict: Different story told in the same way. If you have patience to watch Pithamagan,Naan Kadavul, Nantha and Sethu again, then go watch it at cinema. Or else just wait for the DVD rip.
