Ivanukku Thanilla Gandam - dont drink, dont blabber.
A hangover type movie. Dialogues are the only thing thats good abt the movie, its laced with witty dialogues throughout the movie. Humour only cant save a movie, it needs a gripping screenplay too, in that part the director failed.
Thamilku en onrai aluthavum - Pretty decent watchable entertainer.
Likes
1. Director's intention to try a new concept.
2. Decent screenplay that does not get us bored.
3. Simple humour sprinkled throughout the movie.
4. Few edge of the seat moments.
5. Sarcastic dialogues about today's engineering students.
6. Performance of Manobala, Sathish and a thief.
7. Bindhu madhavi was too good.
Dislikes
1. Too much of science which gives a feel of being in a class room.
2. Not big emotional appeal.
3. Unintentional comedies where a CEO and VP of a big MNC standing on the top floor of a building in a area called 'otteri' and get amazed at what Nakul does.
Romba Nallavanda Nee - Saravanaa, uruppadiya varuvaana?
A Venkatesh 3rd release withing few months, all his movies released this year have one thing in common: They suck. I think in these days where distributors are being such weepers movies like these makes them cry rivers.
Uyyala Jampala (telugu)/with eng subs
Village based rom comedy. Very good indeed, the debute heroine Avika Gor is a fresh breathe of air, she did xcellent job.
Gopala Gopala (telugu)/ with eng subs
Remake of Oh My God (hindi) which again was a remake of The man who sued god (australian). I would love to see this movie dubbed/remade in tamil, IMO
it doesnt make fun of religions, but it points out how some people use peoples fear to earn money for their own benefit, and question the acts people do in name of god. venkatesh and pawan kalyan are very apt for the roles, venkatesh is under playing, and pawan kalyans charisma on screen works big time.
Valiyavan - PAIN
Valiyavan - Vali avan
Nanbenda - bore fest. Without Rajesh, even Santhanam cannot save the movie.
I fell asleep in spite of Harris Jeyraj's loud music.
Furious 7 - Extreme actions, but few scenes felt like Indian muvi. Dedicated to Paul Walker
Watched JK ennum nanbanin vaazhkai today via C2H DVD
Actually I quite liked it - though some portions are overdone the concept that Cheran wants to deliver is quite interesting.
Till the time I watched the movie I don't know the fact that no one actually seen a bird dieing even other birds.
Felt a tad slow and a little wobble in screenplay here and there but watching at home made me over look that.
Thanks to Cheran we can now have cheap family get together.
Is C2H went profitable for everyone involved? Was talking with local shop keeper he said it is dull. Thought this is fantastic idea god only knows why it's not a success.
C2H was not profitable but that was expected since the film didnt have any saleable name except Cheran. Also the rips were available right from the day of the DVD release while they actually claimed it to be piracy proof.
I too liked the film to some extent. But i felt there were too many deaths in the movie which really took of the impact that the director meant to create. However, credit to Cheran for making yet another 'positive' film
Damn Fast7... High voltage action :)
Paul Walker :(
Nanbenda - utter crap
........ (fill in any bad words)
Read a gossip in a weekly before the release of YA & KS, both had same plot...no smoke without fire...
Human Organ Trading....
But YA had it as a part of its movie.
kakki sattai had it as Major part - But this concept was served far better & interesting in Pulan Visaranai in 1990.
Nanbenda - Nalla Illada !

100 Days of Love [Malayalam]
Sort of a precursor to OK Kanmani? May or may not be as the Mani Ratnam film is yet to unfold on screen. The fact that the lead pair is the same must be evoking such thoughts though they had shared screen space together in Ustadh Hotel itself.
Though the knot in the story might not be fresh (we having seen it in Kadhal Mannan itself way back in 1998) the film keeps you interested till the end because of its treatment. The happenings over a period of 100 days time is told through a narration which at times is accentuated by means of voice over done by the protagonist himself.
The initial sequences of the accidental meeting between the lead pair that takes place on a rainy night, the old SLR camera left behind by the girl, the guy developing the negative loaded in the camera, the obscure images that come out, he unable to make anything out of the random shots of herself in hard to find places in the city, his relentless pursuit of the girl and the anti climax ending of the chase are told with humour lased on it.
Dulquer – this guy is growing in stature. He is such a natural that it is hard not to like him even for a staunch critic. He effortlessly sails through the film. Nithya Menon as the girl for whom Dulquer falls is all charm and her own voice adds to the attraction. The stout guy who comes as Dulquer’s friend is quite good.
Jenuse Mohammed the son of veteran director Kamal had made a significant directorial debut and his writing shows promise. The story completely set in Bangalore suits the milieu well.
That films like this with fresh breath of air are welcomed across states is evidenced by it’s BO success both in Kerala and here in TN. Trends are definitely changing.

Okay... can watch once... not as good as Kanchana 1
Horror & comedy 50% of Kanchana
Story not as convincing and impactful as Kanchana
The last 15 mins... pure waste... you can leave. 😅
Nov why Kancana first? :shock:
why not? I loved Kanchana...!Quote:

Oh Kadhal Kanmani is a TERRIBLE film and should be avoided at all costs.
In fact it should come with a warning!
Imagine I - a seasoned man having gone through everything - feel like wanting to fall in love all over again, as I was watching the movie! ��
It's a love story like you've never seen before - everything appears fresh. Amazing acting by the leads and all supporting casts.
The first half breezes past shockingly fast. Awesome screenplay. There is humour touches everywhere and Maniratnam takes us through what appears to be clichés, with surprises.
Everyone who was, is and will be, in love - don't miss this movie.
Muni vs. Mani? Who is Muni? Hehe
Sigh..... I want to fall in love again.....
:lol:..Quote:

Usually I would review a movie after watching it, but this movie has made me speechless.

Rajathanthiram - A tamil film I really liked after a long time :thumbsup: Though I could predict few scenes, it didn't take anything away from the movie watching experience. A heist film done right in Tamil, which is a rarity. Now I regret not watching this film in theater.
(Muni 3) Kanchana 2 [2015 : Tamil : Horror (Comedy, Melodrama) : 2h30m (the version I saw)]
Written & Directed by Raghava Lawrence
Respects : Editor Kishore Te
Staring : Kovai Sarala, Raghava Lawrence, Tapsee & others
Friendly neighbourhood of ghosts
Muni 3 - Ganga [which should have been its real title] was released under the title Kanchana 2 (M3K2) by Sun Pictures, produced by Raghavendra Productions. One of the finest dance choreographers in TFI turned film makers, Raghava Lawrence, writes & directs M3K2, an all new episode in his Muni Series. M3K2 potrays a much experienced Lawrence, where the approach to his story is fasinating and gains an upgrade in humour, as well as depicting the paranomal effects. Moreover M3K2 goes old-school by using tradional thrills 'makeup-lightup-shoot-cut' to provide the needed jump scares. The story chosen by Lawrence this time is quite interesting too.
A handful of souls loiter in & around a beach house. Between shattered dreams, deception & revenge they wait in the corner for that lucky person who can give them a purpose. When the occasion arrives, they do not hesitate to take up their new identity and prepare to snatch back what once belonged to them. Our 'ghost-friendly' hero, Raghava, is appointed as a camera man to assit a shooting team lead by director Nandhini, to film a documentary in and around this beach house. Nandhini draws the attention of the wandering spirits, which inturn jumps onto Raghava. Yet again, Raghava becomes the chariot of the souls to fight againt the most cruel men still circling on the face of the earth and this time he goes a step further by destroying the Evil's 'evil-plans'.
A person like myself, who adores 'larger-than-life' reel image, 'electrifying-screen-burning' events, long dialogues that are more devastating than real punches, exploitation movie style set-up, awesome 'slo-mos' etc., M3K2 is a best dish on the card. During the climax, Mottai Shiva removes a Trisul and walks in slo-mo, dragging it towards the Evil he is fighting , all the time encircled by tiny lightenings. That's a perfect exemple on how thundering M3K2 was for me. As in its predecessors, the side-story is excellent. Muni was an helpless father watching his own daughter's creul murder, and Kanchana becomes a victim of greed, in M3K2, Ganga gains the wrath of a malevolent man. Ganga is a dynamic girl, even being physically challenged she just rolls on. Lawrence has briliantly narrated the Ganga story by not gaining sympathy but by using the weakness as a forte. And then there is Motta Shiva who enters and leaves with a mark.
Technically, the movie is briliantly shot. There is movement everywhere and in everything. Editing was crisp with some fine technics that elevates the continuity. Background score was loud, but was not disturbing either. Liked all the songs, even though could not get a chance to see opening song. Sandi Muni was awesome, a cracking opener for the Climax Fight. Viveka is very good in penning for such (genre) songs. Moda Moda is a 'funny explosive' - "ithu entertainment pei, adikathu" was received with a roar of laughter. Talking about laughter, the ACT1 & a good part of ACT2 had some fantastic humour. Kovai Sarala was at her best, no, Kovai Sarala is the best. Sriman gets trapped with a ghost in his room, rest is to be seen. A fabulous star cast including Manobala & Mayilsamy makes the entire screaming suituation screamingly funny, esp. the one where Tapsee gets scared and announces there is a Pei, you got to see the folks falling on each other - incredibly funny. Tapsee is a surprise, a satisfaction of having watched the most prettiest Ghost on screen. The Beach scene was terrific. And yes, yet another movie Rajendran stays for a 'wink-time'.
The ACT3 is where Ganga story begins, and takes a quite serious route with a huge share of bloodshed & 'Sword-Kathakallis'. The movie slowly creeps towards a Mortal Kombat between two greater Evils. Comparision is unevitable, but we have to be proud that we have a proper series up and sucessfully running. For that Muni Series gets a place in my collection. When Muni dealt more about possessed Raghava and his collaboration with Ghost, Kanchana talked about the impact of Raghava's family members over spirit possession and travels a lot with the symptoms. M3K2 takes a different route, where Raghava's purpose is triggered by Ganga through another medium. And thats why M3K2 is completely different in the series. M3K2 also gets an upgrade with number of ghosts multipled by 2. At a point of time the Ghosts occupy the entire momentum. Muni had Raj Kiran, Kanchana had Sarath Kumar and Ganga has Nithya Menon. Lawrence did not appoint anyone else for Motta Shiva and take away the charm of Ganga. Eventhough Nithya Menon did not or cannot bring the vibes sent by Raj Kiran or Sarath Kumar, but still she finds an unforgetable place in the Series.

Kanchana 2 (Muni 3)
Horror comedy started with Chandramukhi starring Rajinikanth IMO, who can forget the epic dialogue "enna kodumai saravanan?". R Lawrence re used comedy&horror in his movie and gets away with it. While Kanchana 1 was had more comedy content this movie has more horror. It has become a cliche to say 1st half is best and second half is so so, but that is the truth about this movie. 1st half had lots of comedy, edge of the seat moments and great ending, 2nd half has too many repeated scenes of ghost slapping the cast. The flashback is cruel and so 90ish, climax is not good, too much graphics ruining it all.
About performances, the females in the movies did good job: Tapsee, Nithya M, Kovai Sarala, Renuka. Tapsee fits so well as a ghost or a divine goddess character, her face is very apt for such roles. Among the males Sriman acts best followed by Jayaprakash and then Lawrence on 3rd spot. R Lawrence might have started a new trend, ghosts talking punch dialogues, that is pakka mass.
Music is loud but spooky too,for the latter part good job Thaman S. The melody song is great, well composed by Leon James (from camp Anirudh).
The movie is a emotional rollercoaster, like having midage crisis, if you can handle it watch it.
Ooru Vittu Ooru Vandhu (1990), Ramarajan starrer directed by Gangai Amaran preceeds Chandramukhi. Goundamani plays an exorcist and Senthil his apprenti. When Ramarajan's wife Gauthami gets possessed by a foreign ghost, the team goes to Singapore to unearth the secrets. There, its not only the language a problem, but everything that crosses the path of our Rural Heroes.
A hillarious film with wonderful music, can watch it even now.
Yes, but in another sense. The opening of the film is a ditto of Wes Craven's Scream where 'Stab-the Killer' gets introduced. It has nothing to do with the movie's plot.Quote:
