Classic for the ones who appreciate good music, drama and history…

Zed Plus isn’t a bad film and it’s a light hearted move over the off repeated b-town regular potboilers but we expected some depth and cinematic statement from the talented Chandra Prakash Dwivedi’s comeback after the brilliant ‘Pinjar’.

The story itself is a plus, revolving around a dog and his noble life as a man’s best friend. A good deal of research seems to have gone into dog training and their usage in the defense force. The film makes good appeal geographically too. In all this, the fiction of the background of crime, possibility of a signalling device multiplies routed, and kidnapping strategies blend believably.

…is a happy, lovingly smart and witty tease on romantic comedies that rightly demands a ‘commitment’ from its audience to have a ‘dekho’ this weekend at the multiplexes. ‘Happy Watching’.

All said, ‘Appuchi Gramam’ looks like the first ep towards opening our eyes to scientific fiction. With a mind open to more masala than sidelined science and keen eyes to keep track of an example section of the entire village, you can encourage and laude Anand for his attempt.

The movie is a clean time pass without much fuss; however there are some elements that could have worked better if more attention to detail was given.

Although the film on the whole is a good package, some pieces so stand out in contrast. The emotional sequence of Abhimanyu’s marriage is rather unrealistic. Taking to social media, and it being that a quick success all seems like a tall story for practical purposes. It is understandable that the film is a multilingual, but lack of original dialogues makes the film seem like a dubbed movie from a Hindi film and Telugu film, combined. Ignore these and other minor hitches, the movie has a healthy message.

…is unadulterated, breezy, quirky, facelift of the 1982 cult Basu Chatterjee’s classic ‘Shaukeen’. ‘The Shaukeens’ of Akshay Kumar (who spins a major hilarious surprise here), ‘Bollywood’ and ‘comedies’ will be continuously mingled with the giggles and laughter. Go laugh your heart out.

With a story line that is wafer-thin and a genre with inherent limitations, ‘Current Teega’ is not current.

Based on a journey in a lorry, rolling out under the title inspired by the lines on many such beasts, ‘Nerungi Vaa Muthamidathe’ is a path-breaking movie in Tamil cinema history.
