PATTAS is written and directed by R. S. Durai Senthilkumar and is produced by Sathya Jyothi Films. Dhanush and director Durai Senthilkumar join again after the unsuccessful KODI.. Storywise the film has nothing new to offer and is in line with kollywood’s fancy for Tamil pride (Tamil supremacy) in everything.

Lyca productions is behind this big budget ARM + Rajinikanth film that has Nayantara playing the female lead. Rajinikanth’s comeback as a cop has set the expectation meter soaring and the trailer had ticked the right boxes for a commercial caper.

Forced character impressions and weak screenplay that is oblivious to the core plot makes for an uninteresting 40 minutes watch. It is post interval that the movie falls in place. A few flashback scenes again do not impress. The subtle messaging is … Continue reading PANCHARAAKSHARAM (2019)

A great idea without proper application is like a belt without loops. You can only swing it wildly. Mithran does the same with HERO. The film belts you with preachy dialogues that goes unsubstantiated in the … Continue reading Hero (2019)
Produced by: Viacom 18 Motion Pictures THAMBI is a thriller that is written and directed by Jeethu Joseph. The film rather begins unimpressively and very casually. Predictable cliche scenes bring in a good yawn. The first half is less engaging. The second half gets a bit exciting with JJ’s trademark twists and turns in its attempt to compensate the tiring journey so far. Forced humour, … Continue reading Thambi (2019)
