On the whole here is a film that strikes a balance between style and substance. The director and his screenplay have been able to construct an engrossing actor –driven thriller with panache.

Read the full reviewMadras is good cinema. Hats off to Ranjith for his detailing in script and presentation and the way he has extracted spellbinding performances from his cast. Go for this one, its worth your time and money!
Read the full review'Jeeva' is sure to provide inspiration to many youngsters with similar cricket dreams and aspirations. On the whole, it is a nice entertaining film, and another feather on the director's cap.
Read the full review...the biggest problem with Yaan is that there are no twists and the climax is not convincing. The film could have been trimmed by atleast 15 minutes and songs in the second half act as speed breakers.
Read the full reviewKaththi may not be in the same league as Thuppaki, but still is a well made entertainer with a powerful message.

Read the full reviewRa is watchable for its highly engaging first half and the experiment attempted by the newcomers.
Read the full reviewThe screenplay of Lingaa skittles from cliché to cliché, packing in every stereotype you can think of. What saves this film from complete disappointment is Rajinikanth the larger-than-life superstar.

Read the full reviewMeaghamann is another film where the plot is ambitious and paper work is good but falls short in execution. Acting in most parts is acceptable but the film never manages to captivate its audience.

Read the full reviewRajathandhiram is an intriguing new age heist drama and at a crisp 135 minutes, a perfectly satisfying watch!
Read the full reviewIt is undoubtedly one of the worst films of the year in terms of story and production values. If Katham Katham released in early 70's, it might have been an average venture but now we really feel sorry for the producer.
Read the full reviewKallapadam is a film where everything is enjoyable except for the misfit casting of protagonists and dreary dialogues.
Read the full reviewThe premise is simple and to Mani Ratnam's credit, he keeps the story focused and spares us of subplots.
Read the full reviewOn the downside, the film runs out of steam in the second half and the rushed climax looks unconvincing. The minor hiccups notwithstanding, Vai Raja Vai is a satisfying watch.

Read the full reviewPapanasam is a faithful remake of Drishyam with an authentic local flavor and more detailing from the original!
Read the full reviewOn the whole, Maari is sure to appeal to die-hard Dhanush fans. For others though, it's strictly average entertainment.
Read the full reviewA crisper script and a lighter directorial hand is what are missing here. Alas, it's a fantasy film without any of the fun and excitement that ought to go with it.

Read the full reviewPasanga 2 is a neat family entertainer and is a must watch for both parents and current generation kids.
Read the full reviewThe bottom-line is, '144' starts off in a promising manner but what doesn't work so well is the pacing in the second half, as the climax is stretched.
Read the full reviewUrumeen can be watched for the coruscating cinematography by Ravindranath Guru. Easily, Urumeen is one of the best shot films with apt lightings and the animated initial portions too deserve a special mention.

Read the full reviewGethu's biggest strength is Sukumar's glossy visuals, which has given international feel to the film. Harris' songs are hummable and catchy. Overall, Gethu is an average film from Thirukumaran, which seriously tests your patience!
Read the full reviewKanithan tries hard to satisfy multiple agendas that telling an interesting story becomes secondary to everything else.
Read the full reviewOn the whole, Manithan is watchable and works because it has heart. Make time for it this weekend.

Read the full reviewThe scale and rich historical importance is major plus point of director Gunasekhar's laborious movie but the narration is quite ineffective.
Read the full reviewOverall, Udta Punjab, with all the hype it created in the media for its "expression of creative freedom" is worth a watch, only for the performances and social message.
Read the full reviewAs a director Rajamouli has grown leaps and bounds, his work is comparable with the best of talent in the world. His grip and mastery over visuals, VFX, and action episodes is exceptional.

Read the full reviewBaahubali The Conclusion like the first part is an example of a film made with high technical imagery. The final part is also epic in its scale and ambition and is racy.
Read the full reviewA brilliant film...Three rousing cheers to producer PVP Cinemas for pumping in so much money, effort and technical expertise into this movie.
Read the full reviewWith ace production values, the film is well-made. The only sore point is the loud background score that kills the subtlety of the subject. Overall, Hichki remains in your mental space long after you leave the theatre.
