Charukesi
2026 · Times Of India
The film, when at its best, is melodious and painfully soothing, but you wish it found its rhythm.

Anaganaga Oka Raju
2026 · Times Of India
Naveen's spunk provides the spark this rural comedy needs

Kara
2026 · Times Of India
Kara doesn't reinvent anything, and it doesn't pretend to. It's skillful execution and strong performance that anchors a confident slow-burn.

Kattalan
2026 · Times Of India
All roar, little soul in this emotionally flat film

Heartin
2026 · Times Of India
Heartin makes no grand impression as it plays, but it is sincere and unfussy, the kind of film you will enjoy if you are in the mood for a simple, honest love story.

Angikaaram
2026 · Times Of India
What keeps it watchable is Rajesh. For a producer turned actor, his debut is committed and physically convincing, with a real athlete's build and effort behind it. Ghibran's score works hard to pump in an urgency the writing mostly lacks. The subject, the way institutional politics smothers talent from the bottom rungs, deserves a film.

Con City
2026 · Times Of India
There's nothing here you haven't seen, but the cast makes the familiar go down smooth. Con City is happy being a decent hang, and you might be too.


Drishyam 3
2026 · Times Of India
That emotional manipulation of morality remains the core strength of the franchise, and perhaps also its only strength in this installment, as the narrative largely relies on predictability and lack of suspense.

Habeebi
2026 · Times Of India
Habeebi is sincere and often lovely to look at, and viewers who know this world from the inside may find it engaging, but the film overdoes the sentiment and relies too heavily on melodrama to carry its narrative.

Love Oh Love
2026 · Times Of India
Love Oh Love preaches balance to its couple while never quite finding its own, caught somewhere between making points and telling a story.

Arulvaan
2026 · Times Of India
Arulvaan is a message film first and a movie second, and it never hides the order of its priorities.

Stephen
2025 · Times Of India
Whatever qualms one has about some of the dragged-out sequences, this film offers a peculiar experience with a disturbingly interesting serial killer character in an investigative thriller that tests patience.

Maargan
2025 · Times Of India
Maargan is a competently assembled piece of genre filmmaking. It's a good crime thriller if you need one, but it misses the hook that would make it a memorable watch.

Aaromaley
2025 · Times Of India
Aaromaley hits its marks without breaking a sweat. The romance resolves, the laughs arrive on schedule.

Andhra King Taluka
2025 · Times Of India
A fan-adoration tale that wavers but ends warmly. Watch it if you enjoy earnest fan-centric dramas with warm emotional moments and can overlook the problematic aspects.


Kadhalikka Neramillai
2025 · Times Of India
Ravi and Nithya Menen's updated OK Kanmani romance is bold & breezy. Kiruthiga Udhayanidhi pens a romance that reflects the confusion of the present generation.

Anweshippin Kandethum
2024 · Times Of India
A slow-burn thriller with a surprising twist

Rifle Club
2024 · Times Of India
Dileesh, Vijayaraghavan & Vani Vishwanath's charisma works well in this massy entertainer.

Demonte Colony 2
2024 · Times Of India
Demonte Colony 2 is arguably one of the most compelling sequels to come out in Tamil cinema.

I Am Kathalan
2024 · Times Of India
Girish has a tendency to portray aimless male protagonists... but here it is explored with more depth

Kanguva
2024 · Times Of India
Suriya impresses in a period fantasy that's confused and convoluted.

Merry Christmas
2024 · Times Of India
Vijay Sethupathi and Katrina Kaif work well together in a film that plays out in a quieter, lighter fashion

Rathnam
2024 · Times Of India
It's your typical Hari formula – action-packed, fast-paced, and unrelenting – but even by his standards, the logic takes a backseat in Rathnam.


Pranaya Vilasam
2023 · Times Of India
Nikhil Murali and team celebrate enthusiastically the freshness, youthfulness and the magic of first
