Subramanian Harikumar's Film Reviews
-
Ravi Teja once again plays it to the gallery as Bengal Tiger might impress just the front rowers. Though mildly entertaining at times, the plot is so done to death and predictable that it tests your patience. I mean how many times can you seen the same film over and over again! Watch it only if you get free tickets!
-
Don’t waste your money on Ram Charan’s Bruce Lee as it is same as any other mass hero film, which you can watch on TV. Though Ram Charan’s fans might enjoy it, I recommend others to stay away. And if your excuse to watch the film is Chiranjeevi’s cameo, then be ready to be bored for nearly 2 hours and fifteen minutes before Mega star makes an entry.

If you are a die hard fan of Anushka and Allu Arjun, and can digest its mediocre VFX, bad 3D effects and boring second half, then do go for Rudhramadevi. It is not as bad as Puli which had no story whatsover. But if you are expecting an another Baahubali at big screens, then prepared to be terribly disappointed.

You must have heard the caption ‘Save the tiger’. Well this tiger aka Puli is sure to be hunted down by critics and I advice you to save yourselves and stay away from Vijay’s Puli if you want to maintain your sanity. I am going with one and half stars for Puli just for the sake of Vijay’s earnest efforts and one or two stand out scenes.

If you are looking for having a few laughs at the cinemas this week, and have the stomach to digest a dumb comedy, then Kis Kisko Pyaar Karoon is for you! Watch it for Kapil Sharma’s impressive debut!
-
In an industry, where we are served with minding numbing comedies every week, Kaun Kitney Paani Mein is refreshing and will be liked by those who have an appetite for satire. Having said that, the film suffers from half baked screenplay and takes its own sweet time to establish the plot. Watch it if you have patience and free time. Others can just give it a miss!

This is no VIP or Anegan. Maari has nothing new to tell or nothing interesting to hold the audience other than its leading man’s earnest efforts. This film is strictly for Dhanush fans. Watch it for Dhanush and Dhanush only. And if you don’t like the actor, then stay clear of Maari!
-
Even though Venkat Prabhu messes it a bit in second half, the film has enough dosage of fun in it to warrant you a watch at the theatres. Watch it for the comic exchanges between Suriya and his gang of ghosts. Had it been a comic caper, I would have been tempted to give it three stars. But alas! the same old revenge saga makes a mess out of Masss. Go with minimum expectations and chances are that you might end up liking it.
-
Though the film has its high points, 36 Vayadhinile disappointed me and left me wanting for more. The only saving grace in the film is Jyothika, who shines from start to finish, showing the same spark she had 8 years ago. Watch this one just for Jyothika and revel in her earnest performance. This is no English Vinglish or Queen.

Keeping aside all its flaws and shortcomings, Ungli is still a decent entertainer and warrants a one time watch as there is nothing much to munch on for movie goers at theatres this weekend. Go with zero expectations and chances are that you won’t show me your ‘ungli’ for recommending Ungli.
