DialR4Review RATED 9/10

A standout Tamil film in recent times, this movie resonates despite its entirely posh and urban setting, as it taps into universal emotions. What truly stands out is the relatability of the story for every couple. Sharabha's performance was exceptional; she truly immersed herself in the character, becoming the backbone of this film. Seeing Shri on screen after a long hiatus was a most welcome return. This film is incredibly sensible while maintaining excellent entertainment value. There isn't a single moment of lag or any hint of preachiness. The writing is brilliantly crafted, ensuring that the audience remains engaged, much like the title suggests. It's a definite must-watch.

DialR4Review RATED 7/10

The film was genuinely shocking, primarily due to its basis on a real-life incident, which heightened the tension throughout. The sequences of scenes had the potential to unfold in various directions, yet they followed a linear path of misfortune, possibly due to the interweaving of multiple real life incidents. At a certain juncture, the accumulation of wrong turns became overwhelming and detracted from the movie's realistic factor. However, the character who emerged in the climax to salvage the situation provided a sense of relief. It's worth watching once to gain awareness of such peculiar situations.

DialR4Review RATED 7/10

I started to watch with low hopes and it ended as surprisingly good watch. I would recommend the same, lower your expectation, you will get surprised. All the characters are written very well and done decent job. The story was simple and there is no lagging moment. Sometimes the making was bit amateur, but not so bad. This one is the real OTT material. The luck factor was used only in the intro scenes after that nothing. Even the real estate moments are more like filling gaps, and adds more logical holes. Towards end it makes lot of loose ends and SUBAM. One time watchable to kill the time.

DialR4Review RATED 7/10

I liked this movie and the fun factors with parallel world was real lol. The first travel and realizing the value was so good and entertaining. There are some real surprises in the second half and nice parallel world moments. But that is not keep the viewer to hole their attention till the end. When the fantasy angle was used wisely once, it was fun. When you start to play with that one and add some logic into that, then you will get irritation instead of fun. That is what happens in the second half. Half baked fantasy love story, watchable once.

Capernaum

DialR4Review RATED 10/10

CAUTION: This is world class movie with as much as depression you can get from one movie The success of this movie is primarily owed to the boy, who deserves full credit. Following closely behind is the director, who crafted the boy's character to be incredibly courageous and compelling. The execution was superb, with each cast member fitting perfectly into their respective roles. Viewing this wasn't akin to watching a film; it felt more like observing a struggling neighbor through your window. This sensation is the film's greatest asset. The boy and his journey are the whole movie. The family, migration, work issues they had shown along with his journey was so awesome. Must watch for all cinema lovers.

DialR4Review RATED 7/10

The movie is solely watchable because of Arjun Das and his voice. Vasantha Balan is failed make the impact and this is definitely missed chance. The story and characters are fine, but most of the time it got overdosed and the scenes were so over dramatic. With all these flaws, the movie is still watchable because of the main character's hope and his stand on his character. Other than main character, no other character looks original and not stand on their point till the end. Too much of violence and too much of drama killed the movie. One time watchable.

DialR4Review RATED 9/10

First Kudos to director to prove that still we can make the college days story without any cliche and fresh. The new faces added more freshness to the presentation. The movie started as very average college story and routine intros. But later it got kick started to new age and the quirks worked out very well..the actors delivered the one liner very well and clicked in most of the places. I enjoyed this watch, eventhough some scenes are made like TV serial. The overall presentation, songs and comedy made this one as a wholesome entertainer. Must watch and get thoroughly entertained.

DialR4Review RATED 7/10

First, very big kudos to Ragava, Karthik and SJ Surya. All excelled in their role. Movie is so heavy and superb. The interval and climax bangs are nicely done. BUT the entertainment value missed very much in this second part. The movie is so serious from beginning to end with very few relaxing moments. At last Lawrance got meaty role to show all his potential, but still little bit of Rajni is coming out in some scenes. The climax lead to Sethu is interesting one. This is really worthy movie to watch, lot of good dialogs and fantastic production values. But highly missed the entertainment, that too on Deepavali time. Some period mistakes in the movie like showing theatre with 70MM screen in 1975 time, Police guns and some more
