One for the bottom 10 list and two for the top 10 list are ready ?! :)
I.N.A. would have balanced this set of reviews making it 2 for the bottom 10.
bart, 'pudichirukku' is a good movie but i'd be a bit disappointed if it makes to the top 10 at the end of the year. but no doubts about 'nenjathai killaadhe' in the bottom 10 :)
i'm watching "Pidichiruku" based on your ratings. Still my expectations are not high on the film just want to watch for a time pass. I've seen part of "nenjathey killathe" on Tv and not at aLL intrested even catching it on tv. The way u describe Vikranth's character reminded me of Prashanth in Agathiya's own "kathal kavithai". Prashanth's odd behaviour and characteristics was the sore aspect in otherwise a decent love story.
I liked Anjathey a lot. It was a different kind of presentation from the director (he could have worked on the length of the movie a little bit though). I havent watched pidichirukku yet but will do after reading the reviews from Balaji. Not many movies get a rating of 2.5 from you.
Offtopic:
Saw Vellithirai. Good movie. Having seen the original, Udhayananu Tharam, I would still say this movie is worth watching. Especially the comic dialogues of Viji. Both the P'rajs have done well. Music also seemed good.
Some media reviewed PIDICHIRUKKU very good one... but not like tht only the first half is smthing diff and watchable , second half not satisfied....director very poorly pushed.......i want to see vellithirai....
Balaji, your review for Pudichirukku contains the phrase "are quite poignant with going overboard". Did u mean "are quite poignant without going overboard"? Liked the movie. Familiar stuff but somehow fresh. Looks like we are also seeing more debutant actresses with better acting range recently.
anon, yeah i did mean 'without...' :)
