Peaky Blinders (2013)

Some best series go unnoticed until someone introduce to others and this TV series is one such perfect example. I just saw a post recently on this series and yes only one post on it and i started watching this and i must say this became one of memorable moment for me. Right from the start , this series catches your attention completely with the kind of backdrop this series happens. This takes you back to those old days of London during year 1919 and i must say the maker had really brought that close to reality on the screen.



 A perfect neo-noir feel with the kind of color tone used and the way the streets of London setup around BSA Company was just mind blowing and Cinematography is top notch for sure. Adding to that the cast selected for it was more good then ever , its about Shelby Family and how they control neighborhood with fear and iron fist until a inspector general was send to London to tackle this gangster family to bring them down and at same time to accomplish a secret mission as ordered by Winston Churchill himself. So this series is all about the Rise of Shelby family and how they tackle all the hurdles come in their way with their own style forms the story. Cillian as Thomas Shelby did his role perfectly fine as head of Shelby family and his betting operation in Horse race. Sam Neill plays as Inspector general and does it at ease with equally good performance . It was nice to see Sam after a long time after Jurassic Park.


First Season has only six episode and every single episode is very engaging. Though the ending of season 1 could have been little better but yes as its closely inspired from real events , we cant expect too much dramatic moments there. The slow motion shots every now and then like Shelby wearing their unique hat , like they walk together for a war or when Thomas prepares for a fight it was all cool equally supported by a wonderful oldish Background theme. I am sure those who liked hat-fields and McCoy will also love this series for sure. This is highly recommended for visuals and cinematography work and a series not to be missed. Now i will move to second season shortly.

Jinn ( 2014 ) : " One shall raise as more powerful then all the kind exist and he shall lead humanity to golden age "

We have seen many movies on angels , demons , Satan etc but for the first time at-least for me i watched a movie based on Arabic mythology related to Islam which falls into both Fantasy cum horror genre . This movie as name suggested is about JINN. As per the sacred books , three kinds of beings were created by god which is Humans from Sand , Angels from Lights and JINNs from Fire. Unlike other creates , Jinns are more powerful then the other two and they have free will unlike others to either choose God or the Devil. Just like Lucifer Jinns were also casted out by God forced to go underground without Interfering with Humans. But its believed that JINNs will raise during the time of apocalypse and when it happens they are the one who would awaken the Death to fight against Human Kind and gain back control of the world. Well this is a short explanation on JINN what i gone through various articles and documentaries.

Coming to this film , this movie created a huge expectation among horror movies fan circle who love watching movies on Mythology and historical characters living through time and space. So being said that the viewers would have definitely expected more explanation to what JINNs are actually and their history behind it. This movie failed miserably to do so except a brief introduction about JINN during title card which is not enough. People love to know more stuff about them and this movie could have had more to it instead they picked a fantasy route where one man rising up against jinns and fighting back to save mankind which is again a very cliche end to it.

Having said that i still loved the story in it and especially the VFX making part was just awesome. Screenplay was good too and i wouldn't say it was slow but rather quiet engaging. When our protagonist Shawn (Dominic Rains) goes through a process as instructed by Church priest to gain his power back that sequence of incidents like traveling between memory and other just like inception was good and was neatly done. Gabriel role was also good who cast as as a savior of Shawn and his bloodline , his role was vital for the movie too.. The fight sequence at many places were excellent and at last scene when Shawn fights back Jinn with his power was really goosebumps to watch. Graphics used throughout the film was brilliant and mind-blowing , no where it felt artificial or unacceptable to watch , it was rather really cool and i believe that is the one which uplifted this film.

Director could have choose less drama over more in-dept details on JINN which could have made a lot more difference to this film but yet this is not a bad movie at all. Definitely its a daring attempt to bring JINN to silver screen in a all new level and i am sure this would be just the beginner a kick-start for many more movies to come on similar subject. Though i am little disappointed that it couldn't talk more about Jinn but yet i could understand this is not a documentary film neither. There is a thin layer which could have been easily a  controversial one when Director blended beliefs of two religion together which i believe would have demanded more field and research work to it , i guess director would have gone great lengths to understand it before making a movie on such subject which definitely deserves a applause. Though there might be many hidden messages in the film or many unknown terms like Chiller , Chaiyateen etc used in this film , the lack of articles pertaining to JINNs prevent us to understand them more. I liked this movie and is definitely a average film and doesn't deserve to be skipped. Can be definitely watched once for the kind of subject it deals with and for the kind of visuals with supporting sound track it has. JINN Just a beginner .

The Purge: Anarchy (2014)

Unlike its Prequel , this part is all together different level. As we know Purge is one day where Government authorizes every citizen on that purge day to relinquish their grudge , revenge on others as Murder is very much legal on that one day exactly 12 hours in that day. So how various life's gets affected due to it is what this two movies are about.

Though it sounds weird , watching it in screen would give more impact then what you heard. This brings out the cruel intentions of the people and at same time how Government take advantage of this Day to their benefit to eradicate poverty totally from the country. When there is no poor then there is no unemployment and this Purge was Brought in support to that purpose only. This movie brings yet another random characters and how they survive through the night from clutches of sadistic murderers which is no different from the previous one , but having said that there are many parts in the story which would be more shocking and haunting in nature. Few like the old man who volunteer as Martyr to a rich family who gave 100Million dollars to that old man family so that the family can participate purge on that day staying indoors killing this old man for their psychopathic desire and the other thing is when people are abducted n taken to a place where all rich people are gathered. So the highest bidder gets control of  these abducted individual and they are taken into a big room like a maze game where these rich people hunt them down one by one for their pleasure. Last but not least , government them-self stepped into the field to kill many people on purge day to increase the purge death ratio and to fasten the poor people free nation. These are all the hard truths noticed in this movie difficult to be swallowed and it was definitely haunting to the core when that thought crosses your mind to realize on how it would be when this happen for real in future. Apart from the subject movie was okay and i would say it was better then the previous part. Had much action sequences , escape sequences in it. I would say a average thriller can be watched once.

Draft Day ( 2014 )

Unlike all other sports films where it would be either about the coach or the team or any individual player but this movie stands out different. Its all about NFL Game which is considered to be equivalent to Soccer game in most parts of America and  there is a huge day called the Draft day which marks the official commencement of NFL season and also each teams Pick of the season where the General Managers would pick team members based on their Lott.  Kevin Costner is a GM for one such team and this movie portrays the various hurdles , politics , pushing he has to undergo to pick his team while taking into consideration not to hurt the team owner or the coach at same time. When movie starts we just cant understand anything unless if you are exposed to NFL game already if not it will run dry but as it moves on , things will make itself more clearer then before. When finally movie is at his end , we would just love it to see how Kevin managed this entire show bringing best players to this team with a perfect game play at top level. Though movie had rough patches and slow moving unwanted sequences , this is for sure one nice movie which talks about this rare game very well. I wouldn't say it as best but a slow emotional sports drama with lot of dream and ambitions with it. Its just like Money-ball movie. One time watch for sure if you are sports drama fan.

North 24 Kaatham ( 2014 ) Malayalam

A journey can change a person's life and this movie is just there to prove it right. There were so many adventure movies which involve journey but my most favorite out of all is Motorcycle Diaries which depicts Che's journey how it changed his life and his perception towards it. Though this movie doesn't have such agenda but yet this is beautiful in its own way.Fahadh Faasil has done with marvelously well in this movie and i wonder how easy he can fit in such roles which needs a role of transformation , a character which is totally different from two portions of films and i would say he is doing it at ease.

A simple person he is but yet less outspoken , a introvert kind-off , much reserved and phobia to flying in-plane or cleanliness freak and being so with such peculiar characters he is not understood well or appreciated well by the people around him and he standsout unique from all the crowd. So such a difficult person who has hard time to get with people happen to travel to Trivandram on a official trip for the first time in his life and how that small journey changed his view on things was wonderfully portrayed in this film. Sir Nedumudi Venu and Swathi did equally good role in this film and these trio take a journey of their life time making us feel like travel along with them. Though only second half covered the journey part still it was a fuller to be sure and a virtual treat to watch. Background music was so nice at many places and i really liked it very much. Cinematography was top notch and that's the other pillar of this movie after the best characterization produced in this film.

The last transformation sequence was so beautiful and mainly when he says he is missing something or when he walks in the park bare foot and when he places the mobile back on the table at the end were all excellent and a emotionally filled ones in the movie. The background score at last five minutes was cool and that final meet in railway station was lovely.These are some of the movies which leaves the impact even after watching the movie and i would say Mollywood is now racing ahead with such beautiful movies they keep producing these days. I am glad to have watched it and i really loved this movie no matter if there were any critics said this was a average one. A movie if it can be called good only when it can make you attract to it while watching and allow you to travel along with it while experiencing the feel n beauty of it , then i would say this movie is definitely in that list. One more addition to my favorite movies from Malayalam.

Edegarike ( 2012 ) Kannada

Edegarike means GUTS. Casting two powerful actors like Aditya n Atul Kulkarni this movie has so much thumps to it . I seen Aditya in his other movie called Deadly Soma which is about a real life of a deadly gangster but what catching in that film was his dialogue delivery and his body language which is very apt for a gangster role and it still is one of my favorite gangster film from Kannada. And this movie Edegarike was recommended to me casting Aditya as lead character and i must say it was one hell of a beautiful experience watching this movie.

Unlike Deadly soma , this movie is very different , its more of a emotionally filled gangster film just like a Confession of a Killer. Aditya a big time contract killer ends up in love which costed his life at the end. And how he chooses his destiny forms the core plot of the story. More then aditya i liked Atul role in this film who actually brings out the intensity in this movie , it was lovely. Though the end was just the ordinary the way aditya chose to sacrifice is life of his love , but in real-time it was quiet unrealistic. But keeping that aside , this is one of good Slow paced emotional but engaging Gangster flick for sure. Not sure why most of Kannada film ends as like Korean movies with no happy ending at all , yet that said this movie was unique in its own way.One more nice film from aditya and he seems to be a promising star in Kannada industry.

Cube (1997) :

A very nice thriller involving equations , codes and maths. A large cube like structure holding many smaller cube like rooms within it and people are trapped inside these cubes. All these people are strangers to each other and there would be six doors in each cube . If you open one door it will lead to another adjacent cube and this pattern continuous. These people who are strangers to each other not sure how they been held up here or who is behind all this and they try to make their way through these doors in a attempt to find the exit . But to their shocking , if you happen to pick wrong door there would be lot of boogie traps which would kill them instantly. Just because of that lot of people from that team loose their life by becoming a victim to those tracks. So how those remaining persons in the cube manage to decode the pattern and find their exit falls the rest of the story. Though this movie subject is very catchy like Fermats room , still i feel its been dragged a bit with unwanted sequences but being that said its worth a try for sure as its just like a maze runner and you might feel traveling along with them. I enjoyed this movie ,not the best but at same time not a movie to be missed.

Deliver us from Evil ( 2014 )

Expected a more closely matched story to the actual true events but sadly its not , no wonder why they say it was inspired from rather it based on true events. Movie started of real good but somewhere in the line it clearly lost its track and rather felt too much cliche all the way. The making looked more amateur and not really captured the viewers attention a lot. I was very much waiting for this movie as its from the director Scott Derrickson who made one of my favorite horror flicks " Exorcism of Emily rose " but this DUFE was no where close to its standard except the climax exorcism scene , though it looked like a training session indeed. The person on wood more or less felt like a stragoi in Strain series and was rather funny to watch and there are more unanswered loopholes everywhere in the film as it didnot had perfect closure at many parts. The subject that the Diagram , portal , painting were all good but i feel the screenplay with the worst Background music spoiled it entirely and a big let down. This will be just another average normal horror flick thats all and for sure its disappointing to the core.

Modus Anomali ( 2012 ) Ritual :-

A man wakes up in middle of deep dense forest only to find that he was buried alive and that he lost his memory completely. Somehow he gets alive from his burial place and starts to wander around the forest to find more about him and to get some help. In this search process he does find a isolated house and what he finds inside is more shocking for him. A killer like Jason arrives in the forest in pursuit to kill him and it becomes a cat n mouse game. When we start to assume its no more then a normal movie like Jason , it flips completely upside down and we just couldn't expect what would happen next. Most of the movie seems to be shot in Hand held camera so while the camera moves close to the subject it makes us feel as if someone is coming behind them . Once has to watch this movie till the end to really understand it . Some parts are gore and graffic in nature but not all . Except that the thrill factor is definitely there with good twist n surprise elements and for sure like all other Hand held or footage movies , this will also be a worth watching one

How Old Are You? (2014) Malayalam 

" Among the 14 Primer Ministers in India Only one person is the women. Out of 15 presidents Only one person is the women , Is it because there werent any talented women ? or Is it because someone else is deciding on her dreams limit and validity ? Who decides the expiry date of a women ~ Nirupama "

Not sure what happened to molly-wood , but there is sudden shift in their film making and seems they happen to produce more better films every day. This film is just one from the process of its transformation and i am glad Indian films are started making movies which are finally making some sense for the kind of talent pool we have.

Movie is about a normal housewife working in a revenue department and managing her day to day role as a wife and a mother. Her behavior and life style is hugely affected because of her routine monotonous desk job for last 14 years. She has became lazy and she also started to feel that impact in her life as she is getting aged. Her confidence and moral is so down that people even find her very odd. Things take a wild turn when a expected Invitation comes in her way and from then on her life travels through a roller coaster ride. When everyone stopped believing her that includes her husband and daughter , she had to transform herself to achieve her dream to prove she is not the one they think she is and she does it in great style.  Watch the movie to see it in more details and to experience the beauty of it.


Manju Warrier as Nirupama who is the real protagonist in this movie has done a stunning jaw dropping performance throughout the movie. The first half with her innocence and later half with her confidence takes this movie to a all new level. Be it the way when she cries for her daughter at airport or the way she talks to her husband rejecting his request to come to Ireland or her transmission during intermission , they were just mind blowing. That part when her college friend meet her after 15 years and the way she helps Nirupama to boost her confidence and to make her understand that it is not the real her what she saw in college , that scene in the college was just osm. The last 20 min was just stunning and very mich inspiring. I am sure this is one movie everyone should watch and mostly every women should watch. This movie brings the best if women what no men could ever understand their feelings and they way their dreams are destroyed in name of family, the sacrifices they make for us so we could run our life in our way this movie potrays everything their heart , their pain , their hurt behind every tears ..this movie for sure is a wonderful experiance to watch. This can be a eye opener for many. This now adds up to my best favorite movies in malayalam and this is just my opinon .

This movie ends with below quote which says it all.....

" Your Dream is Your Signature "

Anjali Menon's Bangalore Days ( 2014 ) Malayalam  - " A movie with Heart and Soul "


Yet another Perfect entertainer produced from Molly-wood which keeps us stick to the seats. A movie with all ingredients in right proportion and it just impressed me at first instance itself. Felt like watching Dil chata Hai in Malayalam version. Totally loved it to the core , that beauty of friendship , colors of joy n pleasure it brings to you is just amazing.  Dulquer Salmaan , Nivin Pauly and Nazriya Nazim are best childhood friends and how their life takes them in different directions but at end bringing them together with a very cool happy ending becomes a great strength to this movie. Normally i am not a big  time listener to music tracks in Malayalam but somehow this movie tracks kept me in hook and i never felt discomfort at any place. I rather enjoyed this movie to the core.

Special mention about the performance of Fahadh Faasil the way he carried himself at first half and how when truth reveals itself for his behavior following his changes from then on was really a exceptional performance from him . Nazriya the charm girl with her innocence n liveliness brought this whole movie and the characters together , i am sure without her this movie is nothing as she plays the core character of this movie. The way she manages herself as a wife and a good friend was really cool . Depth to characterization was really given much importance in this movie and may be a reason some might even feel the screenplay is bit slow or the run time is long but if you can connect with this movie , this is will be a experience for sure.


More to its credits this movie had stunning BGM throughout the movie especially with a splendid visuals were catchy to eyes and virtual treat too.. At last scene when that dog recognizes Faasil and the feeling it generates that time was really heart wrenching with a perfect BGM just uplifted this scene a lot. There are so many good moments in this entire movie talking which will be like a spoiler to those who haven't seen this movie yet. This movie really touched me and allowed me to travel with it . A lovely movie for sure and a must watch one. It was all in all  director n writer Anjali Menon who brought this all together and delivered us a single magical package deserves a standing applause of bringing a movie like this. This movie will be my one of all time favorites in Malayalam and its just my experience , view and opinion. Enjoy watching.

Zila Ghaziabad ( 2013 )

Was in my watch list for quiet sometime for only reason being Vivek Oberoi performance in Raktha Charitra . Movie is yet again a routine story One common man gets into the line of faction in a misunderstanding and as one of his family member gets killed , Faction starts between two rival gangs one lead by Vivek and the other by Arshad Warsi . How Sanjay dutt steps in as police and handles this situation in his own way to stop the blood shed due to this revenge killing is the story. Though i liked VO performance but still i feel it was too cliche or rather unreal at most and moreover all characters over-performed their role which is a straight hit to our face. Moreover screenplay was too slow and sluggish which spoils the entire mood of the film. Sanjay Dutt as a rough and tough police played it well but yet the action sequences are too hard to digest.Movie is sure below average and one can watch for VO performance alone yet that said its not as comparable as he did in Raktha charitra. So pick it at will.

The Last Will and Testament of Rosalind Leigh ( 2012 )

If you are one who love movies on Arch Angels , demons and its related stories then this will be a must watch movie for you. Movie is very unique , doesn't have many characters in it and not even travels around many places but just a single protagonist and his experience in a single house which is left behind by his Mother after her demise. Fear can be brought in many ways but when visuals are used for that purpose its damn creepy for sure especially when he travels around that weird house going through all artifacts will be definitely spine chilling . Be sure you need to travel along with this movie and dont expect a fast screenplay on it , let the fear take its course slowly and there are too many things to decipher here. There are no Satan or ghosts but the angels them-self and what its portrayed is that as much as god is a image of love , he can also be a face of anger on people who dont have belief in him . This movie could be controversial too and the ending of the movie is quiet different as it says the real demon is idleness and a empty mind can allow lot of things saying Belief as everything. This is definitely will not appeal all audience but only few who enjoy horror in different forms and for one who see the inner meaning in each subjects discussed and shown. I liked this movie , not the best but still its sure a average one.

Ranjith's Madras ( 2014 ) Tamil - "A perfect Bell curve in terms of entertainment"

Ranjith's Madras is a typical pakka local mass movie taking us to the live-hood of North Chennai. Those who lived by these places would easily connect to this movie and even may give nostalgic feel as well while watching it. A feud between two political parties resulting in a rivalry between local groups with a Single Huge Wall taking center stage. It becomes a matter of pride for these political parties on deciding who gets to control that area so they could get their leader picture drawn on that wall and this struggle slowly turns into a gang war and faction. So much lives were lost in this process which ran for years and lot of blood has been shed to this cause. Karthi and his friend anbu end up in losing side and how they manage to get back control over that wall forms rest of the story.


First half was really engaging and it just keeps going in a good phase. Be it friendship , love , romance , fights it had everything to it. Karthi body language was totally different and was very apt for this role and lived up to the character . Even his dialogue delivery using perfect Chennai slang was cool. Catherine Tresa as Kalaiarasi paired up really well with karthi and their chemistry worked out very well. Those love proposal scenes between them were really nice and brought a nice feeler to this movie. There are so many goosebumps scenes in first half and scene before intermission was highlight. Songs were good and especially Chenna Wada Chenna was wonderful to watch on screen. I liked Karthi's Friend Anbu role also very much as he too plays important part in first half and johnny character was mind blowing too. Till intermission this movie gave me the best experience what i expected from this movie and it almost impressed me so much as i equally got impressed watching Naan Mahan Alla. I am sure first half raised expectation bar so high with a pitch perfect engaging screenplay and making was damn osm. Special mention is the BGM for this movie which really blended well with the visuals and gave the exact impact this movie tried to deliver. Though not all tracks were appreciable but yet a stunning job in terms of BGM and a standup applause to Santhosh Narayanan on that part.

Second half started and as expected with the outcome of scene before intermission , things slowed down a bit. Still it was agreeable to some part as the script demanded that slowness. But no sooner we had that unexpected incident in second half , things really got very slow. This added by three more Songs back to back , especially Gaana Bala song "Irandhidava" it became very sluggish. I rather felt that the song really didnot bring the impact it was expected. Not a perfect song for that situation. But yet the script was still on track until last 20 minutes it totally lost its track. One of worst climax for such a good movie i would say. There was no single logic to the climax and it was rather too cliche too even accept n convince our-self to our rational mind. Living in such a locality filled with young lads , our hero decides to take all antagonist single handed was illogical and definitely not impressive. It really lacked everything to it and thats why i mentioned bell curve as it brought the entertainment factor completely down at later half.

Verdict : I would not mind spending My 120 Rupees to just watch First half alone and few minutes of second half which is really well made. A perfect commercial subject which could easily reach to mass audience. But unfortunately second half screenplay was really not impressive and even more climax of this movie is logic-less and unsatisfactory. The second portion really stood as a spoiler to this entire movie and whatever audience experiencing this movie till that moment gets totally lost there. I personally felt so disappointing to see such a finish for if little care would have been taken , this would have been easily a best movie in this season but fate took its toll. Still Ranjith has done a wonderful job to the movie and i liked it definitely at parts. If it was me , i would rather walk out from theater before climax. A average movie which can be enjoyed with bunch of friends provided if you could digest few things in this movie. Not a bad one to be skipped especially considering the ground work done by Ranjith to bring the reality and nativity to this film which is the most captivating part in this film. One time must watch for this brave attempt . If you are a chennaity then enjoy it in Local theater with your area folks and you will definetly feel the fun in it. thanks.

The Possession of Michael King ( 2014 )

Movie started off like a Documentary where a person tries to learn black magic and to understand dark secrets after recent loss of his wife. So how things go wrong as he steps down deep into the subjects forms core plot of the story.

Movie was initially okay like when he tries to try different rituals and explores different methods of satanism , rituals it definitely keeps us in hook if you are a horror film liker and especially interested in occultism . It definitely stays that way for some time till he himself gets possessed by a demon in this process. From then on it becomes a very normal movie like a handcam ones and not that really engaging. More over the shaky video with a uncomfortable sounds at the background will definitely cause nausea. Still there were few scenes good enough to watch later part too..but its not completely engaging second half. If you are a fan of such dark arts , you might like this film but for others it will be below average. Give this a try if you happen to not have any other horror movies to watch

Chef ( 2014 ) :-

A very nice feel good movie and i can say a adventurous movie too portraying Father n son love so well and at the same time depicting passion of a chef towards his profession with love n soul towards his cooking.Mr.Iron Man cameo was cool though he comes on screen for only few seconds yet he steals the show with his own style of acting esp when he says " Everyone hates you , you are a turd which is good " was tailor made dialogues for him . 

Movie is about twitter fight between a chef and online food critic which goes wrong costing the chef job. So as his life unfolds he starts up a food van for ready to eat sandwiches and as he drives the van from Miami to texas he gets so popular and trending everywhere in social networks. How he manages to get back his lost fame and at same time uses this little trip to understand his young son makes rest of the story.

Everything was so good about the movie except the ending which i feel didnot complete well as i feel it was way too rushed . Movie with such a story should create a inspiring feel rather there was a sense of urgency towards the end. The critic coming to him and talking about partnership was kind of realistic and i am not much convinced with it , instead it could have been in other way. Except that last few minutes i enjoyed every minute of it and i would say this is one of good drama released this year which not to be missed by any cinema lover. Enjoy watching.

WER ( 2013 )

There were so many werewolf movies but not many would explain them in details except the killing part and transformation. But yet there were movies based on werewolf like underworld , wolfman ( 2010 ) which i liked most and this movie WER will definitely be a part of it. The way this movie slowly develops the fear and suspense was great and how the phenomenon was scientifically explained was really good. The sheer power of such werewolf can be clearly seen in this movie and there were some scenes which was too graphic in nature. Yet it was one of good thrillers in this genre and ending was quiet a cliche yet it was okay as we could easily guess that out. One of underrated movie which went unnoticed to many and Definitely deserves one time watch for sure . Enjoy watching

Enakkul Oruvan (2014) Music Reivew :
-
Unlike the badly designed poster , i must say this tracks will uplift the movie. Santhosh had proved it yet again , sure he is damn good emerging talent . What a beauty of work he pulled off. Wonderful and i loved each and every song ( except Prabalamagavey which i didnt like ) , For a movie like Lucia when its remade , the expectation will be for sure high and i guess this lived up to the expectation and i am waiting to experience it with the Movie visuals. Its Just lovely.....

I tried to listen this song both in my Over the head Sony MDR-XD100 instead of my normal headphones and also with my iball 5.1 surround external speakers connected to Creative 5.1 surround card and i must stay both were really stunning . It was damn mesmerizing for sure

1) Endi Ippadi :- " Enn di ippadi yennaku unn mela ipppadi oru kirukku..thana vanda kanakku thala keela irukku " " Kalathukum nee yenakku kannukula venum , naan moodi therakum podum nee yenakku podum " ...wow , a localish lyrics attractive....Lovely music though a variety of gana bala style song , still it was peppy and lovely to hear..a different feel music and i bet this is wonderful . Nice folk kinda composing. Loved it and a special mention that humming..osm.

2) Kutti Poochi : Gives nostalgic feel like listening to Jigar's Kannamaa Kannamaa song..but still its very much listenable. Good one.

3) Yaar : Hypnotizing and breezy. My most favorite in entire album. A lovely feel and a pleasant experience listening to it. So much soothing and makes us travel along with this song. this will be my repeated play list. Been a while i listened to such slow moving yet catchy song . This will sure keep you hooked.

4) Poo Avizhum Pozhudhil : You beauty. Waaaah....Waaaah.....Santhosh Narayanan trademark song..damn cool and a good song on love . A song which u can just put in ur ear plug for a good sleep , a melody of love , a filler for music thirst . Nice song for sure and my second best in this album

Ulidavaru Kandante ( 2014 ) Kannada

Tagline :  " As seen by the Rest , a story from different perspective "

Well there was so much talks about this movie that it was a all new attempt in our Indian cinema and this tempted me to watch this movie. Well i should say it was indeed different and was really presented in a unique way. I would say its rather a musical fleet. Story is very simple involving only few characters consisting of Raghu , Richi and munna. Its about how their life crossover each other and end up in a mash-up costing their life in the end and how a news reporter tries to track the story behind it for her latest article inquiring local people in the town about this incident and capturing their varied point of view in an attempt to find the conclusion of this story. But did she able to conclude it with the facts or she has to complete the story which is more fictitious forms rest of the story.


The way these characters are introduced like a chapter was cool and the making of the movie easily remind me of great film makers like QT and Guy ritche. Looks like the director was heavily inspired from these legends though it dont see any credits given in the movie . That said it was cool and i loved this musical script with very less dialogues spoken throughout the movie. BGM was very nice at times and picturization was damn cool. I saw ugramm recently and from then on i notice the cinematography of Kannada films have improved a lot in recent days. I more of loved the way the visuals were supported by the music in this movie added to that the traditional Tiger dance and costumes were so lovely to watch.

Polladavan Kishore was cool in this movie too and i liked his role. Richi character was fine too but his over performance at times and his unsync unmatched high level English at times didn't match his character much especially with a gun in his hip belt always was kind of unrealistic because he never looked like a scary gangster. There are some scenes which had no logic to it and second half mother sentiments and some songs like kids in beach were unnecessary or lets say slowed down the script making a sluggish feel which could have been avoided. But that said , still this movie was so lovely and other songs were so cool especially " Gatiya Ilidu " was so lovely and breezy. This is not a movie for everyone and if you like musical dramas sure you would love this movie irrespective of all other negative aspects i said above. Enjoy watching.
