Whoo haa!!! Atlast found some time to blog. Seems like ages since I got back to my hobby. Loads of things happening at the personal & professional front - and yours truly was completely swamped!!!!
And I guess the place that I have recently moved may not feed enough for the movie freak in me - and I think I will have to manage with DVDs.
So managed to see three movies in the last one month - and in that only one from the pongal released. Find below the 1 minute review.
Pirivom Santhippom
This is the only pongal release that yours truly saw - so it would be unfair to conclude that its the best of the lot - but I read in lot of articles that its the best. I somehow couldn't come to terms about Cheran being a hero - there is something that is missing. And come to talk about Sneha - VOWWWWW. She is absolutely fantastic - though I wouldn't call it her best perfomance till date. Yours truly liked the first half of the movie and the director has given a realistic touch - especially the marriage sequence & the fondness of joint family. The second half tend to drag a lot - but may be Karu Palaniappan (director) wanted to get the viewers feel the pain that Sneha undergoes - though for me personally it was a bit over kill.
And yours truly verdit - all in all decent family movie!
Kalloori
What a movie!!!!! Has all the ingredients to become a classic. You folks would read lot of reviews about this movie and comparisons to Kaadhal. To my mind, it should not be compared with Kaadhal - for a simple fact that its a different genre! The kind of meticulous shots that Balaji Shaktivel (Director) kept is truly awesome and trust me if you are movie buff - you will find so many nuances every time you see this movie.
And yours truly verdit - a must have HOME DVD!!!!
American Gangster
I felt may be my friend was correct in saying that Hollywood churns out the BEST gangster movies. American Gangster is truly a work of genius. Guess the likes of Ram Gopal Varmas, Gautham Menons would take an inspiration in the days to come.
And yours truly verdit - a good Sunday noon watch!!!!
