sarabham - worstu hero naren is miscast (can't here clearly what he says most of the times). ok thriller but very predictable
thegidi - good, very pacy screenplay. worstu heroine
arima nambi - ok, film picks up pace after initial date and never drops. worst climax

kadhai thiraikathai vasanam iyakkam
- parthiban has put a lot of thinking in each scenes
- dialogues are very good & has parthiban's touch all over
- Thambi Ramayya.. probably the first film i feel good in watching him
- heroine reminds a lot of nayanthara

Nee Thaane En Pon vasantham : IMO,Gautham's most real love story.I only knew that the plot involved the lead pair breaking up and getting back over three different stages of their life.Had no idea how it ended and knew it tanked at the BO and got a lot of flak.

Made no difference to me as the film was engaging and in the end I was pushing both to get together.

Music was fantastic and though it been a couple of months since I saw the film(on Jaya TV,Aug 16th),Muthal Murai esp has refused to get out of my head.

Samantha was gorgeous esp in the school episode.Lovely voice dubbed for her.Who is it ??

Jeeva was slightly underwhelming,strongly feel Nani would have done a better job in the telugu version.

Saivam : Last week on Star Vijay.Lovely little film.Again very real and got me involved right away.All round good performances and the children,thankfully came across as children and not 'Gyan' spewing,irritating adults.

Thegidi : Last week on Star Vijay.Very impressive esp with the actors.Ashok Selvan,his friend particularly were very natural.Am sure,these guys are trained well.Liked the heroine too esp her big eyes The way it ended,Part 2 on the cards,I would be interested

Aadhalal Kadhal Saiveer : Last week on Star Vijay. The climax is the film.Am sure any teenage couple going around will think 1000 times before crossing the line if they have seen the film.Again the director created a very real ambience and succeeded in giving the impression that the events are happening in real time.

Only gripe is that,it would have been better if the film had started with the premise that the lead pair are already going around keeping the friends/family in the dark.The way they got together was too quick and unconvincing.

Also,the guy who played the lead looked very awkward on screen,some body trained would have looked better.

Thegidi has all ingredients to be subtle and intelligent thriller.... Ashok selvan role of private detective can be used in the future films to make sequels.... i am happy that small budget unknown movies are doing good comparing big budget craps. I still keep listening the songs.... Title song clearly exhibits the genre of the movie.....

DELETED SCENES FROM JIGARTHANDA and SATHURANGA VETTAI

Sidharth's voice and acting looks better in these scenes (Facebook like potten )
Never knew Ambika dubs for herself. I thought her Tamil is as bad as her sister's.
Wonder why these scenes are removed. Maybe to reduce the number of smoking scenes?

Parthian dialogue & all the new star cast the best. I will rate one of the best movie in 2014 so far

sigaram thodu
- i liked it..
- vikram prabhu gets one more decent script in action genre
- karate villain .. shihan hussaini kaalathu technique.. more recently mugamoodi naren
- comedy by sathish & erode mahesh.. okay..
- overall a neatly scripted action film
