Nenjuku Needhi (2022)
Remakes are mostly bad
Usually its a Tamil movie they take and remake it into a bad movie in other language but Kollywood played uno reverse and they took a fantastic movie (Article 15) and made this mediocre movie. I have seen Article 15 first and then tried to watch this movie, it was very difficult. Udhayanidhi Stalin acting did not convince me it was ok and I preferred Ayushman Kurana's acting. I know the movie is slow paced but after the interval it got way slower than its Hindi counterpart. Inspector Sundaram role played by Suresh Chakravarthy did a good job he made everyone hate him. The cinematography was nice, I kind of like the dark themed colors throughout. Music in the movie was good. Arunraja Kamaraj is a nice director but I think he missed the mark in this movie.
Jailer (2023)
Saved by the bell
The movie had a solid start but started to loose it flair as it progressed. Rajinikanth stone cold performance was a delight to watch and the occasional appearance of Shiva Rajakumar and Mohanlal was some of the good aspects. Music director Anirudh made the movie experience good. Coming to the script and story it was doing ok till the first half of the movie. After the interval it felt like the creator was lost and the just made some story to fill the second half of the film. Nelson's first two films Coco and Doctor had a good comedy which made us look beyond the flaws of the movie. This movie in particular there was no single comedy moment which made me laugh but instead some so called comedy annoyed me and if I was at home watching it or if I had a forward button in theaters I would have skipped a significant chunk of the movie. Yogi Babu was not utilized at all. Redin Kingsley role was mediocre at best. Not sure the role of Thammana's role in the film but I did enjoy the Kavala song. Lot of the comdey cast used in Doctor and Coco were there but not properly used. The stardom of Rajinikanth along with good BGM and cameo from various stars saved the film from being an another Beast.
Viduthalai Part 1 (2023)
Another Vertrimaran Classic movie
Vetrimaran is one of the few directors who has consistently given the audience quality movie. His work is has gore and brutal scenes which lot of people wont like but we need to keep in mind that these kind of stuff has happened. The movies first scene a continues single shot was impressive. The cinematography, script are all amazing. I was very sceptic when I came to know Soori was the lead role and it was a serious character but he did a exceptional job. BGM scores was nice but personally I only liked Kattu Malli song the other songs was meh not great. VJS in his short screen time gave a huge impact. GVM role was great too. Chetan's role in the film was very nice he made all the audience hate the character with his good acting. The wait for the 2nd part has started hopefully this time Vetrimaran wont make us wait too long.
Por Thozhil (2023)
Outstanding movie
Well written movie. Amazing first half. Second half is very nice. Climax was good but felt a bit typical. Ashok Selvan and Sarath Kumar sir combination was fresh and the first half subtle comedy via dialogs was gave a good start to the movie. The music was also very nice. If you liked Ratchasan this is a must watch. The antagonist backstory was well taught out but the portrayal was not that great in my humble opinion. Very good cinematography. In Crime/Detective/Serieal Killer genre we get outstanding movies very rarely. This is one of the must watch in the genres mentioned. Kudos to the director Vignesh Raja to have made such a good debut feature film.
Jai Bhim (2021)
A must watch film
Cast:
I've seen Lijo Mol Jose in a previous movie and I was surprised when I saw her name in the cast as Sengoni. She has done a great job in this role, followed by Manikandan(Rajakannu) and finally Surya making us speechless with his performance. The other cast also did a great job.
Music:
The songs in the movies may not be catchy or commercial but it helped the audience to feel the emotion which the movie wanted to convey. The BGM were so good and very apt for the film.
Direction:
T. J Gnanavel has given quality movies in the past but this one is his masterpiece till date. It will be one of the best movies he has directed. The movie was simple, to the point and kept the audience nailed to the seat.
This movie is based on true events and shows what injustice and hardship tribal community has gone through. It is a long film with 2hr and 40 min screen time but not even in one scene it felt slow. It has a nice pace and awesome dialogue and screenplay which will make almost 3 hrs feel so short. If the movie went on for another hour I wouldn't have complained.
The film was finished and released even in this pandemic so hats off to the entire team. This is by far the best movie Ive seen this year. I wouldn't be surprised if bags multiple national awards.
