I have not got into blogging after I had moved to Chennai. I have taken lots of time out for movies after moving to Chennai. Last 3 weeks, I got chance to watch few interesting movies starting with:
1. Ravana - Not an extra ordinary story line as expected. But I liked Vikram, Aish and Prithviraj's acting. I don't want to write any reviews here. All said and done, Mani Ratnam was able to capture some of the beautiful places in Kerala in his camera. Excellent Camera work and to a certain extent decent screen play.
2. Kalavaani: Beautiful movie. It was a laughing riot. The whole theatre was laughing along with me. If you have problem with your boss, just bunk office and watch this movie. Its kind of a real stress buster. All the actors did their job really well. I have not seen many movies of this genre in Tamil. Good to see that Directors are going out to experiment in new hero and taking not so trendy movies. A must watch for any one who loves to spend 3 hours just to laugh :)
3. Thilalangadi: Not worth watching. I had watched the Telugu version "Kick" few months back. Never liked the story. I was not aware of the remake. I should have guessed this, after all its Jeyam Ravi (Remake Hero). He had showed his acting prowess in Peranmai. Again he has gone out of his mind by taking a Telugu movie and taking up roles which doesn't fit him at all.
4. Madhrasapattanam: I liked this movie very much. You can read the review in Deepak's blog - http://deepakvenkat.com. Its a must watch movie. Plus in the movie are: Arya, Screen play and Back ground score.
5. Catch me if you can: After a long time, I got to see this movie. You can watch it any number of times.
6. Usual suspects: Kaiser Soze is a cult name. Bests of Kevin Spacey. I am watching for 5th time.
7. Little Miss Sunshine: Again a laughter riot. A good time pass movie
8. After sunrise: A good romantic movie. Not seen these kind of movies in India. Just wondering if Indian audience will ever appreciate a movie where there are max 4 artists and 2 ppl talking for nearly 90 min. I never felt bored with the dialogue. Many of us might have experienced this while travelling in train wherein we come across a person with whom we talk throughout the journey. I loved it. This made me watch "After sunset".
9. After sunset: Can you believe it!!! The director did it again. This is a sequence of "After Sunrise". You will see same actors talking for 90 min.
10. Pay it forward:Though you have Kevin Spacey in the movie. Its the wonder boy from Sixth Sense who will impress you the most. Haley is amazing. Its a lesson for all of us to make our World an ideal place to leave. Pls do watch the movie and if given a chance do follow the lessons learnt :)
Have been visiting AGS cinema hall in Villivakkam too often. Happy that someone has decided to open a good theatre in this part of Chennai. Looking for forward to watch lots of new english movies expecially Inception (its not matching with my timings ), couple of Hindi and 3D movies.
