SILENCE Movie Review

 



Silence [ Nisabtham] is a thriller. Anushka plays the female lead, the role is considered to be silence as she cannot speak and hear but she can feel the sound. She is a painter too. Madhavan is a lead, he is a musician.

Movie starts with the murder of Madhavan and the police [Anjali] tries to get the details from Anushka. Anjali has put down weight and looks great and for sure she is back. The tale finally revels that Madhavan had killed Anushka's best friend and Anushka in return avenge Madhavan.

Its not a ghost story and has nothing to do with Silence. The sound mutes less than a minute in the whole movie and it has no point in calling it 'Silence'.

My views : 

1. Colour grading was not that professional, even skin tones looked cyan shade.

2. Music and songs were not that great.

3. Lens selections could have been better

SPYDER - Review




Year : 2017, September

Director : AR Murugadoss
Genre : Action - Thriller

SPYDER, a much awaited movie but it seems that the audience did not appreciate it as expected. There were many places where the director should have been sensible.

Ideas from Hollywood:
The Villan’s character has been inspired from the movies ‘Perfume’ and ‘The Dark Night’
The Villain has been kept alive as the police senses his future plans on a destructive act on public – ideas taken from ‘Face-off’, where a bomb will be planted and only the villan knows about it.

Unrealistic Ideas:
I have not seen any south Indian family women climbing on a house, a lamp post, etc. They even think twice to climb on a ladder. But the story and screenplay says, the family women can climb houses like spider-women. Can you believe this? How could you expect this from AR Murugadoss..

Music:
Harris Jeyaraj did a fair job in the background but not in the songs. It did not sound like what you expect from Harris...

Cinematography:
The only one thing which is flawless was the cinematography. 


It is very clear that Tamil film industry currently is running out of good story lines, which is the lifeline of any movie. Is it time to pack the bags back home????? - is the question from the audience to each film maker.

Thuparivalan Review - Mysskin's Messy Sherlock Holmes


Thuparivalan Review - Mysskin's Messy Sherlock Holmes



Year : 2017, September 14 | Director : Mysskin | Genre : Thriller 

Points noted:

1.      A brilliant detective, who knows why a person visits him well in advance, can’t he guess what is going to happen in his house?
2.       Even toilets have a CCTV cameras now a days, won't a detective of current generation have CCTV in his home / office?
3.       When a detective is on a high level crime case, he will not make himself very visible as he will know that he is always watched for his weak points. Hero takes his maid-girl friend for shopping, Mysskin failed here, to show the romance he had compromised on the secrecy of a detective.
4.       In a block where the 2 bikers trying to escape, one guy surrenders, but the other was left noticed and made free to escape. She will escape by climbing a jumping over a 10 foot wall in between 10 cops on either side or our hero who was chasing them for nearly 20 miles will stand still when Andrea, the other biker escapes in front of him. Will you let a murderer escape just like that in the middle of the road?
5.       Another technical question, The lighting is created with a ring kind of source that is with a 360 degree angle, so how did they point it to a particular person standing in a few 100 yards that to in a particular direction. Moreover the subject was on a building roof top, usually all buildings will have lighting protection systems.

Story was good but, this has too much dragging. Scenes like breaking a dozen eggs and throwing the omelet pan, all this time the camera was panning around him. To me, this was a horrible shot not a professional one.

Movie has no style in it, the vision on output was totally missing. It was like trying a Sherlock Homes in Tamil Cinema which is not even 5% of a Sherlock Homes movie.

Music sounded like it was from a school kid. I think music has not added what it has to do in the intense scenes. Music terribly failed.


Camera, was trying to find new angles but rarely succeed. I hope it’s not a school kid again.

Bottomline: A one time watcher. 

OSTHI Review - Santhanam has done it





Following could be avoided
Purpose of a Sniper is forgotten: When you have a sniper then why do you need to go near the target to shoot it DHARANI? Have you not seen any sniper movie or played any sniper game in PS3?
Simbu is not a Superman: Simbu flies like a kite pulled by ropes, nothing seems to be real.
Cars and Jeeps fly without a reason: Action means not making the cars and jeeps fly with your filthy fireworks.
Showing SIMBU like HULK: Dharani you have made the audience laugh at Simbu rather that bringing out that real anger in him.
 
My review on other things in the movie:
Story: Remake of the hindi movie DABANG [Not copied properly]
Music: Taman is still amateur [‘Eeram’ was and is your best]
Comedy: Santhanam, as usual [Hides everybody when he is on screen]
Simbu : Acting was good but not used by Dharani as Gautham in VTV [We expect more from you Simbu]
Cinematography:  Normal and nothing special. [Could have tried some different angles]
 Richa: Beautiful

Bottomline: Santhanam will not let your hopes down.

Engeyum Epodhum Movie Review - waste of time

Engeyum Epodhum, its not a story towards action / love / thriller / anything. Just 1 message to save you life - "Drive slowly so U can avoid accident"., that's it, a  2 minute commercial would have done that in a better way. Even then, the accident at the end of the movie will not happen due to over speeding of the bus. There will be a sheet of plastic paper or something like that, will hide the driver's wind shield so the driving gets distracted. 

To me its just waste of time. Better commercials are seen on 'Doordarshan'. Murugadoss - waste of your money and mere waste of our time!

Deiva thirumagal was not an original idea

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=olLXb6_9MhM&feature=youtube_gdata_player



Deiva thirumagal was not an original idea. Vikram's hair cut to acting was copied from the movie shown in the above URL . This is why Tamil cinema is afraid to go to international arena. Why can't you think of an original idea.

Come on guys you come from the land where AR Rahman came. He shocked the entire world with his twin Oscars. Why don't anybody even try for one.

"Mankatha" has brought in more competition for Vijay. Vijay loves a healthy competition too. His Velayudam stills have made an impression.
