DialR4Review RATED 9/10

This one is like Anthology stories which has connecting knots across each and every episodes. Each episodes have separate story at the same time they have the connecting line from the beginning to end. The connecting line is so brilliant and sometimes make you feel wow. Felt some stories ended abruptly without apt ending, but they justified all stories ending in the last episode. It has some melodrama tone, but they never over done it with cliche moments, that is the best part of this series. The cast is perfect and they take you into the story completely. Worth the watch.

DialR4Review RATED 8/10

Superb collection of VHS short stories. Each story has its own spine chilling moments. The stories and scare will haunt for long time. It was eerie to watch the complete movie. Initial portions were bit boring, once you started to explore each VHS cassette, it horror factor scrawls all over the screens. I was more disturbed with the motel murder and Alien love making scene. Real treat for the horror fans and must watch. If you like Blair witch project, you will love this one. All the stories are perfectly working and deliver what it is intended perfectly.

DialR4Review RATED 6/10

The realistic anthology with the stories revolving around issues of containment and the burst of emotions. Each story core subject is unique and presented very well. It is so solid and nice making. The problem with this anthology is that the interest of watching is getting reduced when each next story starts. It becomes more artistic than entertaining one. If you are expecting some award worthy long shots with some strong story content, this is the one made for you. For me it was like never ending presentation and becoming more uninteresting.

DialR4Review RATED 7/10

Good drama with four impressive characters. I like Manikandan character very much. His ideology and realising the mistakes are presented very well. It is kind of Anthology with no boring moments. The title is so opt for the story and characters. It has some sadness throughout the movie. The director and accident stories are one level and the other two stories are another level. A well crafted drama to watch with whole family. I enjoyed very well.

DialR4Review RATED 6/10

Superb cast, production value and acting... but the story flow and the length of the movie are the big minus points...I was expecting the movie to end and realised that one more hour movie is still there.... Highly predictable second half and climax... Not upto the expectation....

DialR4Review RATED 7/10

The first episode is over sweet and looks like lost the main track... The second, third and four are superb and liked every bit of the episodes.... It as fine acting and superb dialogs and its so feel good also....Some dialogs looks preachy but adjustable Joju and Nadia episode is the best one. The last episode is so heavy and dead slow...fine acting couldnt save the flow of this one... As a conclusion, ok start ends with dozed one... but the middle ones are so great.

DialR4Review RATED 8/10

I liked all the stories and how they connected all the six stories is too good. There is no single dull moment and the screenplay is so tight...The last two stories are bit dull but the other stories has some real brilliant moments. Enjoyable watch. Must watch

Navarasa

Movie: Navarasa
Language: Tamil
Media Partner: Netflix
Source: Netflix
DialR4Review RATED 5/10

Runtime: nearly 5hrs. 9Episodes and each around 35 minutes. Total disappointment. Only surprising episode is "Project Agni", it is surprising at the same time confusing. Surya Episiode is overdose of GVM-ism. It was cute till the motor bike ride through Adayar, after that its repetitive and overdosed. Rowthiram is bit OK but not justified fully. All the other episodes are not noteworthy and not eligible for movie candidate... Easily skippable one.

Collection of sad stories told hard on face... sad and gritty... Te best part of this anthology is everyone acted so well (except GVM episode) and so realistic GVM - Over acted and so cinematic compared to other episodes Sudha - Top notch Vignesh - Con with fun... but unnecessary glamour and cuss words.... Vetri - Top class making, the biggest disappointment is in all his films the villain get the fair retort, here it missed....

Nice feel good anthology, worth the watch

GVM - excels and its like full feature film...

Sudha - Its good start and flow but abrupt ending

Suhashini - As usual melodrama and cliche...voice over could have saved some cliches...

Karthik - Ultimate "Nalaya Iyakkunar" material... dark and fun twists...

Rajiv - Feel good atmosphere with exaggerated characters...

Good Mixture of presentation for the whole 2 hours...
