KODIYIL ORUVAN – MOVIE REVIEW

Infiniti Film Ventures produce this film that is written and directed by “METRO” fame Ananda Krishnan. Like the title the film has all the trappings of an over the top mass commercial entertainer, but does it take off? With Vijay Antony as the hero the title sounds very bizarre. The first ten minutes is spent eulogizing the hero and that’s such a dampener to begin … Continue reading KODIYIL ORUVAN – MOVIE REVIEW

DIKKILONA (TAMIL) – MOVIE REVIEW

DIKKILONA is produced by KJR studios and is written and directed by Karthik Yogi. After marauding horror films with comedy, Kollywood now pulverizes science fiction with comedy.
