Wake up directors, its time to write!!
Posted by Arun.N as Anjathey, Kollywood, chennai 28, cinema, director, evano, mozhi, script, tamil
A worrisome discrimination between commercial and parallel cinema exists constantly in Kollywood. Even matured critics have got themselves entangled in the confusion as to which genre is generally more appealing and successful in terms of critical acclamation as well as box office success. However, now the situation is changing(for the better) and the haziness is […]

The Real Hero

While watching Polladhavan, I realized that almost every other Tamil movie that releases today is based on underworld and organised crime. Gangwars, Hooligans in love, Rise to power of a henchman, common man pulled into violence and what not. We may even see a Dada learning bharatnatyam or a Gunda turning into a priest very […]

Yaradi Nee Mohini!
Posted by blogjamun as Dhanush, Kollywood, Nayantara, Raghuvaran
Yay! I finally managed to see Yaradi Nee Mohini. The movie cannot be written off as just another love story. The setting of the story may sound very cliched. Yes you guessed it right, Dhanush is an unemployed youth , who does not respect his dad and has his daily quota of beer.
The way the […]

What do you get if you cross a Vijaykanth script with Vettaiyadu Vilayadu? Yes, You are right. Captain catching Kashmir-born Tamil terrorists (Theeviravadhinga) in Canada. That is exactly what happens in Captain’s 150th, “Arasangam“. After giving epics such as “Chocklet” and “Madurai”, R. Madhesh is back with this rib-tickler…oh sorry, nerve-wracker.
Arivarasu (Captain Vijaykanth) is called […]

This is it. One of the two movies I was looking forward this year is here (The other one OBVIOUSLY being “Dasavatharam”). After having seen V. Priya painful fall from “Kanda Naal Mudhal” to “Kannamoochi Yenada”, I did not want to see another successful debutant taking a hard second step. But “Arai Enn 305-il Kadavul” […]

All That Sparkles Is Not Silver!

“Oh, Prakashraj and Prithviraj with Viji at the helm?”, I thought, “It’s Duet movies, it must be good.”. Generalizations suck, don’t they?. It doesn’t matter how famous the cook is, it’s all about the recipe. Vellithirai becomes a cinematic embodiment of this statement.
In one of the best Tamil film openings of recent times, Vellithirai pays […]
