Movie Maniac

Language -Tamil. How was it? -Good. In the era of Tamil cinema, where much importance is given to the cast and commercialism, this is a story dependent movie. First Tamil movie to bring up a MACHINE GUN!!!!!!! How likely are you to recommend your friend to watch this movie? Yeah, very much. Must watch. My after thoughts The CG(Computer Graphics) department of Tamil cinema still needs a lot of catch up to do. Coming from the director of Maanagaram(a movie I loved very much for its crisp story), I am a little let down by the fact that the story isn't crisp enough, compared to his previous work. But, worth your money. I am still amazed by the MACHINE GUNNNNNN. People who should watch this? Every Tamil movie lover who carves for a story based movie and not a cast based movie.

Language -English. How was it? -Average. All my expectations hyper sky waiting to watch it in the theater three weeks after the release. With the word round, I would say I'm a  bit disappointed. How likely are you to recommend your friend to watch this movie? Not that much. My after thoughts Everyone has a story. A villain is a hero who story hasn't been told. Fabulous acting. Would have been even better had if the break(intended by the theater owners) had not been offered. People who should watch this? Simple. Joker fans. DC fans.

Language -Tamil. How was it? -Good. Another one of the emotional dramatic Tamil movies, but with spot-on frames and an elegant simple story. A two and a half hour may seem a bit too extended, but you don't feel it. How likely are you to recommend your friend to watch this movie? Yeah, very much. My after thoughts Wish I had a sister like the one in the movie. Taking ourselves for granted and not bothered about others feeling is to be looked after. The CG(Computer Graphics) seemed very cheap and I don't know why Tamil movies always have this problem. People who should not watch this? If you are expecting an absolute thriller.

Language -English. How was it? -Good. Just another one of those stories out there, where they scare you with camera movements. But, I won't categorize this under ghosts(not the regular ones at least). Nothing extra. Just the needed details and cast. It's taken from a book, so, it makes me wonder which is the better one? How likely are you to recommend your friend to watch this movie? Not of the high recommend category nor the not-worth-it movie. My after thoughts The end credits go with the song, "I don't want me buried in Pet Sematary. I don't want to live my life again." Just the one life. No second chance. If you happen to get one, you won't be the usual you. Learn to let go!! People who should not watch this? If you are want to be at the edge of your seat for the whole movie. If you have read the book(I haven't read it, but as the general saying goes, books are far better than movies).

Language -Tamil. How was it? -Not my piece of cake. Such an emotional piece of drama with no such thing as character development. Just one of those regular Tamil movie where people make you cry. Not my department. How likely are you to recommend your friend to watch this movie? Nah. Not recommended. My after thoughts Wish even I had a sister like the one in the movie. It is kind of nice to live surrounded by hundreds of relatives. Nobody can hurt you make you enjoy like relatives(a dialogue from the movie itself). People who should not watch this? If you are not a fan emotional drama movies. People who should watch this? If you are from a family with a huge family tree.

Language -Hindi. How was it? -Entertaining. I actually didn't expect this movie to be so commercial. I never really knew the cast and was enthusiastic to see some of them. How likely are you to recommend your friend to watch this movie? I would make my friend watch it right now if I could. Maybe, even I would join him. My after thoughts Great. Leave all the build ups and the extra spiced up science less stuff, it's a enjoyable two hour. Expect the unexpected as the movie turned out to be. Exaggeration is a need for the story to make it watchable. People who should not watch this? If you are a science enthusiast and looking for a full fledged science fiction. People who should watch this? If you enjoy watching commercial movies and how they cold create a story from a real incident.

Language -English. How was it? -Average. Just another one of those rom-com(romance-comedy) out there in Hollywood. If you have time to kill and have no other better way to do so, then you could go about watching this. How likely are you to recommend your friend to watch this movie? Not really. My after thoughts Happy ending happens only in movies. In reality, it's the start of next problem or the next movie. People who should not watch this? If you are not a fan of the general rom-com. People who should watch this? If you have lots of spare time loaded in your backpack.

Language -English. How was it? -Okayish. It is one of those Netflix original movies and you know the standard of these movies. Every time I've played such movies I have always been reprimanded by my friends. And old habits die hard. How likely are you to recommend your friend to watch this movie? Never. My after thoughts There is so much going on. Just the usual stuff of friendship, betrayal, chase and things. Should stop watching movies made by Netflix. People who should not watch this? If you are not a fan of fantasy. People who should watch this? If you are a fan of Netflix movies and it's bizarre story-telling. And of course how could I forget Will Smith fans. And if you love crazy fantasies.

Language -Tamil How was it? -Amazing. A movie dated back to 1989. Ignoring all the vintage feel, this movie is worth watching. The ideas may be a bit off here and there. But, come one. Go with it. How likely are you to recommend your friend to watch this movie? Highly recommended. My after thoughts Just wondering how people would have enjoyed such a movie back at the time of its release. Many Hollywood movies are based on this concept and it feels proud that Kollywood has conquered it in the late 80's. People who should not watch this? If you are not a fan of love movies. People who should watch this? If you love vintage movies, especially based of love. Similar movies The fault in our stars(English), Five feet apart(English)

It may seem to be a bit off, but all that I say is to stick till the end. How likely are you to recommend your friend to watch this movie? Yes, it's a must watch. My after thoughts Wow. I didn't expect that. I never saw it coming. Some questions begin creeping my mind and I love movies that makes me question after the end. People who should not watch this?

Language -Malayalam How was it? -Boring. It was boring to the level that I actually happened to doze off a few minutes in the second half. And after that I didn't really care what was happening. The story took such turns that I'm not completely sure if my sleep someway impacted the movie. How likely are you to recommend your friend to watch this movie? Never would I do such acts of treason. My after thoughts At last it came to an end. Now I could sleep peacefully(and I slept for around more than the length of the movie) People who should not watch this? Everyone. Unless you are planning to sleep on it like me. Other perks Even the dubbing seemed off and the audio quality was also bad. Maybe the print form Tamilrockers is to be blamed for the audio quality. Such attractive cast and I'm not even a bit impressed. I guess why they take movies like this except if they are planning for a lullaby.

Language -Tamil How was it? -Not so entertaining. I was well aware that the movie was some kind of cult fiction and so I had my expectations way low. But, still I find myself filled with disappointment. In a world full of commercial movies, I am happy that movies like this exist. How likely are you to recommend your friend to watch this movie? I wouldn't recommend my friend to watch this. My after thoughts Now I know why the title "Magamuni". But, what are they even trying to say? Am I too dumb that I didn't get it.

Language -Malayalam How was it? -Nice. Every time I watch a Malayalam movie, it leaves me with such solace.

How likely are you to recommend your friend to watch this movie? Very much for the feel it leaves is to be felt. My after thoughts Wow. How could someone be like that. Such selfless care and love it reminds me of my grandmother and my mother. People who should watch this? If you are looking for a simple movie depicting care and love. One last thing Great acting by the lead cast of the movie Soubin Shahir. I have seen him in many other roles but this is just great.

Language -Tamil How was it? -Worst. I don't know what is missing but I feel that the movie is far from complete. I watched just for the hero Vijay Sethupathi(VJS) and hell I'm disappointed. How likely are you to recommend your friend to watch this movie? Just forget that this movie even exists. My after thoughts The message was not properly touched on and the flaws are visible to the naked eye. Should have chosen another movie. People who should watch this? Nobody. Not even VJS or his son doing his debut. One good thing A Song and VJS's look.
