Batman Ninja (2018)
An abomination that should not have been!
The artwork is great ..... that's the only thing good about this movie, which is otherwise filled with more cringe-worthy moments than all the other movies put together
Aruvi (2016)
Life isn't black and white
This is a movie that everyone must and should watch, I would say one of the best in the year 2017, and my comparison is not only with other Tamil movies.
The director has literally shaken the stereotype of movies where plot lines are black and white, good beats evil, etc. The director has very skilfully, and at the same time very artfully portrayed a snapshot of life, with all the associated greys in between. It's hard to say if this movie is a comedy or a tragedy or a celebration, but then again, isn't life just the same?
Special mention to the cast, especially the lead actress Aditi Balan. Very rarely do we come across such talent in a debutant actress. I would say she has lived the role rather than simply performing it during the movie. Her subtle moves and gestures throughout the film have not gaudy element nor a bit of overacting. It is every bit as real as watching a real life event unfold in front of our eyes.
Don't miss this movie. The director has managed to convey a very important social message in an elegant and simple manner. I won't say what it is, lest it spoil the suspense of the movie for you.
Joker (2016)
An absolute gem
This is an absolute gem of a film!
The movie brings out a a set of very real problems that India faces, while portraying them with satire and a splash of tragedy. The movie picks pace quite slowly and at times, in the beginning, leaves you baffled as to whether this is a comedy or a satire or just a stupid movie. However, once the story starts unfolding, you're sucked into it, both mentally and emotionally. There is something in the movie that everyone of us can relate with.
The team behind this film have performed brilliantly, kudos to them all. Special mention to Guru Somasundaram, for his excellent acting and Raju Murugan, for his directorial skills. I feel this is a must watch for everyone who cares about the society. In fact, I don't remember rating or reviewing any film before this, but it feels criminal not to rate a film such as this.
