Cinematographer – director K V Anand had touched a sensitive theme in his maiden directorial venture ‘Kana Kandein’. ‘Ayan’ too serves a purpose. It brings to light the pitiable condition of uneducated and poor youth, who are being used as bait by smugglers. Often referred to in Tamil as ‘Kuruvi’, these men live a life loaded with risk. However the movie is not preachy as Anand laces right commercial elements all through.

A macho-man story, ‘Ayan’ is a perfect summer entertainer. Though the storyline is familiar and oft-seen in the past, the pacy narration and captivating visuals provide the necessary pep to the film.

Anand’s packaging of this commercial entertainer is sophisticated but would appeal to all sections. Reminding one of movies like ‘Dhalapathy’, ‘Nayagan’ and the much recent ‘Gemini’, ‘Ayan’ is a riveting and racy right from the word go. Produced by AVM and presented by Sun Pictures, the movie has magical moments enthralling audience.

Deva (Suriya) is a typical Chennai youth. His mother (Renuka) aspires that her son would join government service. Pursuing his post graduate course, Deva instead works for Das (Prabhu), who runs a smuggling racket.

A shrewd Deva is a carrier of smuggled articles bringing from abroad everything including pirated CDs of newly-released movies to diamonds without getting caught by customs officials.

However Kamalesh (Akashdeep Saigal), who runs a similar racket in the locality, starts to give nightmare for both Das and Deva. Keen to topple them, Kamalesh goes to any extremes. Das entrusts Deva with a job to smuggle diamonds from Congo. Intervenes Kamalesh. He sends his man to make Deva’s mission unsuccessful. But eventually he fails. Meanwhile, Deva falls in love with Yamuna (Tamannah), sister of Chitti’s (Jagan), who also works for Das.

Their rivalry hots up and a turn of events leads to Kamalesh bumping off Das. Deva goes on revenge mode. They sort out their enmity in the barren lands of Congo and a surprise awaits Suriya in the form of Narcotics Bureau chief Parthiban (Ponvannan) after he returns to the country.

Suriya’s rendition of ‘Chennai Thamizh’, his youthful looks and body language are the major strengths of the movie. His onscreen chemistry with Tamannah is good. Amazing to see Suriya performing acrobatic stunt sequences, who has been hitherto considered as a ‘performing’ actor. His dedication and involvement could be seen in every frame.

Equally appealing is Tamannah. Though she has no major role to play besides a couple of songs including one in alien land, she is convincing. Prabhu as Das is apt fit for the role. He handles the role with much-needed maturity. He renders grace and charm to his role. Jagan and Karunaas play the supporting roles well. Specially Jagan with his one-liners is impressive. Akashdeep Saigal, the baddie from Mumbai, lends solidity to the role. His dubbing by ‘Kolangal’ fame Ajay is appropriate.

The spine-chilling chase in the streets of Congo, choreographed by stunt master Franz Spilhaus deserves a special mention. M S Prabhu capturing the mood of film in various shades and tones is a pillar of strength to Anand. Harris Jayaraj’s songs are peppy. Watch out for the opening song “Pala Palakura”, which is racy. However the real scene-stealer is editor Anthony. His slick work manages to sustain interest all throughout.

No doubt, ‘Ayan’ is one more in the kitty of successful movies being belted out by Sun Pictures.o

Satrumun Kidaitha Thagaval Tamil Cinema Review

At a time when the directors and choreographers are foraying to acting, popular tamil cinema stunt master Kannal Kannan has tried his luck playing the lead role in the movie ‘Satrumun Kidaitha Thagaval‘. It is a murder mystery which begins with promises only to end on predictable lines.

Seemingly inspired by some recent happenings, debutant director Bhuvanai Kannan has dished out a screenplay which unfortunately provokes a movie ‘deja vu‘ feel. An amateur sequence of events which lacks cohesion mars the flow of the movie.

[ad]

Kanal Kannan is not new to acting as he had played cameo in several tamil films before. He sticks to his strength (doing acrobatic stunts). He jumps and leaps on screen.

‘Ammuvagiya Naan’ Bharathi plays a pivotal role in the script. Khushboo as doctor is adequate for the role. She manages to leave her screen presence coming out with a subtle emotions.

However, the real scene stealer in the show is K S Ravikumar, The acclaimed director plays a tough cop on investigation trail. He  has handled his role with elegance. He spits venom with his looks and handles the role with grit. The rest of the cast is however not familiar.

A sequence of murder takes place in the city and a cop (K S Ravikumar) steps into investigate them. Meanwhile, Shiva (Kanal Kannan) comes out of a mental asylum. It is concluded that a lunatic is behind all these murders. Shiva manages to enter the house of a movie director (Livingston). His wife (Bharathi) is all alone. She suspects him to be the mentally-challenged man on murder trail. Meanwhile, the police zeroes in on a psychiatrist doctor (Kushboo) to be responsible for the murder. In the court, she spills the beans that a young girl who had a disturbed childhood was indeed responsible for the murders. Shiva eventually comes to know that it was none other than the film director’s wife. What the noble-hearted Shiva does to bring her back to normal life forms the rest.

The film had everything to become an engrossing tale. However, lack of apt screenplay and events unfolding at a rapid pace stems the progress.

Produced by Airmedia network, the movie lacks clarity and ends up as a normal, routine and cliched affair.

Thee Tamil Cinema Review

The tamil movie Thee is one more from director Sundar.C’s film factory, with the same storybase, camera angles and characterisations. Playing wildly to the gallery, the movie is loaded with masala items (2 massage scenes with actress Namitha, Sundar C’s full monty and one item dance from Mumaith Khan) and violence which includes people getting hit on the head by a sledge hammer!

The story of this tamil cinema is clearly predictable, hackneyed and is devoid of any logic or reason. A cop Sarathy (the hero Sundar.C) who fights against injustice in society is framed up by the bad people , a corrupt MLA (G.M Kumar) and his mentor Raj Pandian (Sayaji Shinde), who have their own agenda. His wife Ganga (Ragini) and two children are brutally murdered by the bad gang in view of full public!

Now it’s revenge time for Sarathy (Sundar C). He turns avenger, becomes Saami, a scum of the earth, plays dirty and becomes a MLA with the help of the glamour queen Ruchidevi (Namitha) and hammers to death the bad people in the last reel.

This tamil film is said to be a remake of the Telugu film Operation Duriyodhan, but has been remade in an even more crass and crude manner. Among Srikanth Deva’s loud songs only a single melody Kalainerathil Thendral.. is hummable.

Director Kitcha’s intention was to hammer out a hard hitting political thriller but he ends up making a preachy C-grade masala movie. Too much smoke, too little substance in this cinema.

Agonizingly slow, painfully predictable, it is a dreary drama that test the patience of the audiences. It’s a very long and tedious affair, with hardly any moment which will stay in our mind. All said and endured, this movie flick is an “Oh…No”.

Kudiarasu Tamil Cinema Review !!!

Movie    Kudiyarasu
Director    Sabeer Hussain
Music    Karthik Raja
Cast    Vignesh, Suresh, Suguna, Neeba, Nizhalgal Ravi, Srikanth

This tamil cinema is about a daring investigative reporter, and directed by a former kickboxing champion. So you think it will be a fast and racy entertainer, but ends up as a preachy and boring tamil movie.

The Tamil actor Kannan (Vigneswaran) is a commited journalist. On New Year day, he comes out with a scoop report in his paper ‘Kudiarasu’ on the scam in the closure of a finance company which was a ‘benami’ concern of the state Minister Ambalavanan (Sethu Vinayakam).

[ad]

It is the poor who lost their money in the scam. The movie goes like the hero Kannan vows to expose the minister and his corrupt methods through his newspaper. There is also tamil actress Radha (Suguna) who is in love with the journalist and dissuades him taking up the challenge, and finally her rich industrialist father(Nizhalugal Ravi) persues her to marry his manager Rohit, who has an eye on her.

The director Sabir Hussain tries to fit in campus romance, action together but the mix goes sour in this tamil cinema. All the actors should go through a crash course in acting before doing this film. There is nothing much to salvage this amateurish film which is a waste of time.

A Complete waste of time!!!

Perumal Tamil Cinema Review

Starring: Sundar.C, Meenakshi, Namitha, Vivek
Direction: Vincent Selva
Music: Srikanth Deva.
Production: Pa. Shanmugam

The tamil cinema director then the actor Sundar C, an unlikely candidate for the Valentine’s weekend has made it to theaters with the tamil cinema Perumal. Sundar C starrer movies, though not many in number have always had one thing in common in them, fun. It is the fun factor in his tamil cinemas that has kept them going in theaters for reasonable lengths of time starting with the riotous tamil cinema Thalainagaram. By fun, we just don’t mean comedy, there has been a general lighter vein running through his films that have catalyzed their success (though limited at the box office). This time though, he and Vincent Selva have been ambitious and tried something more in this film.
This Tamil Cinema Perumal starts quite turbulently in the setting of a hospital where a mafia is at work adulterating drugs for a huge profit. But, their illegal works come into light when a junior doctor catches them in the act. Obviously, they want to wipe out the person who has found out the truth about them and set out after her. She runs into the darkness and into the movie hero Sundar. C.The tamil cinema hero is not a very good Samaritan either, a small time thug who does the job of loan recoveries for an agency. But, being the hero, he has to protect the damsel in distress and enters the swamp that may put him in grave danger along with the junior doctor. That he finally manages to bring the mafia to book would be obvious, but how he does it is this tamil cinema.

[ad]

Well, as said before, the tamil film is far more ambitious than previous Sundar C films. The theme really has the potential to make for gripping viewing, but it is the presentation that has failed. The most important thing in a movie handling such a theme should be the element of suspense and thrill, here that element goes for a toss in the initial portions, nothing is left to guesswork and concomitantly the viewer is likely to lose interest in proceedings of the cinema, knowing too well what will happen. The director has floundered in handling this tamil cinema subject. Also, the plot could have merited a pretty linear narrative with few deviations, but commercial compulsions seemed to have swayed the focus of the director. That’s where the tamil actress Namitha comes in, no connection with the central plot, she plays a crook who specializes in stealing cars. But, we know that she is in this tamil cinema purely for glamour which is given in strong doses in a couple of songs. The tamil comedian Vivek’s comedy does not work, barring a couple of scenes. Kota Srinivasa Rao does his usual bit as the bad man, but there is nothing in the role to challenge the actor.

Technically there is not much that in this tamil cinema that one can single out for appreciation or criticism. Srikanth Deva’s music is a let down, there is no song that sticks to you for any length of time. The fights at many points fail to add any excitement to proceedings of the cinema, they are over the top and tend to test your patience at places.

Overall, The tamil cinema Perumal is a potent idea gone wrong. The theme had the ability to give suspense and thrills that would have made for engaging viewing but the director has failed to sustain either of these, it does not make for interesting viewing. At the box office, the lack of regular Sundar C fun elements will disappoint his fans and the slack presentation will put off other audience. Sundar C’s clean sheet as an actor is likely to get its first blot. The Perumal team has to wait and watch for the public’s verdict.

Laadam Tamil Movie Review film

A different tamil cinema, different co-stars and a different plot in tamil film industry.

But same result: Pathetic tamil film

Prabhu Solomon’s latest movie Laadam is made like a stylized Hollywood thriller with large helpings from various gangster movies, but does not fit in with the Kollywood(tamil cinema) milieu.

[ad]

All the actors in this cinema ham, there is no story or a basic plot and the tamil film crawls at a leisurely pace for a thriller. The music of this tamil cinema is too loud and jarring and the blue tinge is irritating. The tamil actress Charmy has flaunted her body, and overacts to the hilt.

Two gangsters, Pavadai Samy (Kotta Srinivasa Rao) and Vempuli run the mafia in a city as per story of this tamil movie. The tamil movie goes like they are at each others throat and engaged in a bloody war of egos’, as body count increases while the cops watch the fun.

Enter the tamil cinema hero Kunjipadam or Karupampoochi (Aravindhan), an unemployed youth who comes to the city for a job interview .He accidently gets involved in this gang war and is put in a difficult situation.

He is given 16 days by Pavadai to kill Vempuli’s son, if he fails in his mission he will be killed! Adding to his woes he meets Angel (tamil cinema actress Charmy), a dare-devil of sorts, who joins him in his hide and seek game with the gangs.

And in the climax of this tamil cinema our lean and fragile hero turns into a one-man fighting machine who cleans up the city!

The message that Prabhu is trying to say in this tamil cinema is that, when benevolence and sincerity doesn’t work, bullets do. First and foremost the director has taken characters in this movie who exist only in Chicago or New York, and try to make them locals which sticks out like a sore thumb.

No Indian gangster will have the life style and guns that the baddies in this tamil film have, and moving around in a luxury Volvo bus in the middle of the city and still undetected by the rival gang is hard to believe.

The tamil cinema heroine Charmy’s character is hard to digest and has been conceived for the oomph effects.

This tamil film doesn’t work. You just can’t take a bunch of newcomers and string them together in oddly edited sequences and label it as a “different kind of thriller”. To make matters worse, we will have to tolerate Dharan’s pots-and-pan music in this tamil cinema  Forget it!

Another worse tamil cinema for the tamil industry!!!

TN 07 AL 4777 Movie Review

Remaking movies from Bollywood or Tollywood involves potential risk in Kollywood. Director Lakshmikanthan has tried his hand at remaking a recent Hindi blockbuster ‘Taxi No 9211’, which is a racy and riveting cinema. All credits must go to the director for not trying anything farfetched in the Tamil remade cinema, managing to retain the flavor of the original film.

Produced by GV Films, the tamil cinema revolves around two main characters – a taxi driver and a rich young man played by the upcoming tamil actor Pasupathy and Ajmal respectively. All credit to the tamil movie director Lakshmikanthan for his apt characterization. The two tamil actors have lived the character coming out with a brisk performance. Unlike recent run-of-the-mill stuff, the tamil movie has a good storyline to boast of with catchy dialogues sure to evoke applause in the cinema hall.

The aspirations of the rich and the poor, their outlook on life have been captured well in this tamil cinema. In a nutshell, it is about two different types of people belonging to different strata of the society. They meet in a ride and a chain of reaction begins between them.

The tamil actor Pasupathy plays Mani, a hot -tempered cab driver. He leads a contended life with his wife Subbulakshmi (tamil actress Simran), who thinks that her husband is an insurance agent.

Mani comes across Gautham (tamil actor Ajmal), a rich spoilt son of a businessman. Gautham has a peculiar problem. He comes in contact with Mani and also comes to know that he would be losing several crore of his father’s property to a trustee unless he produces his father’s will.

An accident leaves Mani and Gautham part ways from the taxi leaving the locker key in his cab. Mani gets arrested. Eventually, Gautham informs Subbulakshmi that her husband is behind the bars and that he is not an insurance agent but a cab driver. Ruckus breaks in their house. What happens next forms the climax of the tamil cinema.

[ad]

Pasupathy plays the role of a cab driver with finesse int this tamil cinema. His rough looks and cool body language evokes applause for the film. He has done justice to the role done by talented actor Nana Patekar in Hindi original movie. It’s not an exaggeration if we could term him as our own Nana for Tamil cinema.

Ajmal has left his bad boy image in the tamil cinema ‘Anjathae‘ and comes out with a new demeanor this time. He has brought out emotions well on the screen. At many places, his character reminds one of a role played by the tamil actor Madhavan in ‘Anbae Sivam’. He is cool, suave and trendy.

His emotional turmoil has been brought out well in this tamil cinema The tamil actress Simran hogs limelight with her decent portrayal. As a devout housewife, she fits the bill well. Meenakshi fulfills the oomph factor. Though she has no major bearing on the story, she plays her part well.

Vijay Anthony’s musical score is a very much hip-hop and trendy captured well on screen.

Lakshmikanthan deserves a pat for choosing a right script for remake in Tamil making suitable changes that would find favor with the Tamil cinema crowd.
