MODHI VILAYADHU

It’s highly expected saran’s movie after disaster’s like vattaram and idhuya thirudan. But this movie too falls short of the expectations. In fact vinay missed the hat trick hit because of this movie. story wise it’s nothing new, the same old story which we have already seen in prasanth’s star.

First half deals with romance between vinay and kajal agarwal, and romance scenes are totally a crap. Entire romance scenes were logic less. Ex: Heroine throws pepsi tin on hero’s head, because of it, hero bangs his car on the tree, in order to compensate the damage, the hero makes the heroine to work as a servant in his home for few days and during that period love blossoms between them.

Second half had a small twist and that alone was good, but again the movie started dragging. And climax is totally artificial and doesnt have any logic. Kalabavan mani as a villain did his usual job.

Acting wise, vinay suited for the role, but his voice re recording looked awkward. Better he should leave the voice re-recording part to another person, and the same in the case of kajal agarwal too. Songs composed by singer hariharan and his cousin was not impressive. Background score was up to the mark.

Santhanam’s comedy was good, especially the naan kadavul and subramaniapuram comedy was too good.As a whole its a boring movie which is not at all worth watching. seriously i didn’t expect this from saran who directed movies like amarkalam, gemini, kadhal mannan etc..

AINDHAM PADAI

This movie has lot of known faces like sundar c, nasar, simran, vivek, devayani etc etc,,so naturally the movie looks so colorful, but the story was not so impressive. Its the same old story which we saw in 1980’s tamil cimena, i.e) family containing five brothers who live together happily, as usual some external villains tries to create some problem and break the family and split the five brothers. In the climax as usual, all the five brothers fight against the villains and join together and the movie ends there.

First half was good, especially vivek carried the entire first half. As usual sundar C did a decent job . But the heroine,in fact i dont know her name. She doesnt look good and doesnt deserve to be an actress. Simran looks bit old, better she can start doing mother role instead of dancing for romance songs in beach. Devayani continued her tele serial acting in silver screen too.

Second half was too slow,, and few scenens seem to be repeating again and again. But again climax was good and credit goes to vivek. Songs was too too bad, it just caused an irritation in our ear drum. The movie would have been good, if the director badri removed unwanted scenes and concentrated on the screenplay. Guest appearance by Radha ravi was good.

Over all its an average movie which can be seen once for the sake of vivek’s comedy and first half, other than that, it has got nothing special. Its a 3 hours tele-serial with some good comedy scenes.

VAMANAN

Vamanan is the first single hero movie for Jai, it released exactly one year after subramaniapuram which was huge blockbuster in 2008. Story wise it doesn’t have anything new or interesting, its the same old wine served in a new bottle.

First half has lot of comedy , little bit of romance,little bit of action scenes and little bit of glamour, but still first half moves fast and the full credit goes to comedian santhanam and urvasi. Apart from that new face priya didn’t get any scope to perform. She just comes for songs and disappears. Lakshmi rai playes the role of a model, though she perfectly matched for that role, her voice was horrible, some other person should have given voice to her during re-recording.

Second half was bit slow, and screenplay was not up to the mark. The audience can easily guess the next scene very easily. And in-fact the second half is just cat & mouse game like most of the tamil movies. sampath and rehman played the villain role and their role was not powerful.

climax sequence was not up to the mark, it was like seeing cartoon in POGO:-), Director should have concentrated in the second half but he missed it.

Yuvan’s couple of songs and re-recording  was good and cinematography by aravind krishna is worth mentioning.

Jai’s performance was good but at times it looks like he over acted in few scenes. He should improve in dialogue delivery and body language.

On the whole vamanan is a movie which can be seen once for the sake of comedy and few songs, apart from that, it has got nothing great which is worth mentioning.
