I've been thinking of suggesting this to RR. Will check with him.

Cool bro!

aripu thaangama antha "one other particular film" mattum ennanu paathutaen

That's a minor twist actually. Wouldn't spoil the film even if you know it.

Though that's true butI actually regret putting that spoiler comment now. Personally I hate it when people spoil something for me, Naaney adha pannitten. Sorry boss. From now on ill control this cheap urge.

Now back to movie time.

Saw the movie Mouna Guru today noon at Mayajaal. Good movie. For me among the movies I seen, best movie in the second half of 2011. Hero mugam paarka muthalla kaduppaa irunthu, poaga poaga set aagiduchchu. Good screenplay. Ippoathaikku ithu poathum..

Naandhan first-a

Decent thriller. This film once again proves that it's easy to build an intriguing plot, but the real challenge is wrapping things up. Director takes his time to set up things beautifully and creates a lot of interesting knots on the process. But he takes the easiest way out for resolving the confilct which disappointed me a lot.Plenty of good scenes throughout and some of the shots are really well done (esp. the intermission point).

P.S: I have a feeling this director might have worked with Mysskin. Got to check.

Assistant of Dharani, worked for Dhill,Dhool,Ghilli.... reading lot about this intermission shot... heard he shot almost 5-6 days for that 10 minutes scene.

That scene was quite good, but not aaha oho. I particularly liked the shot when the screen freezes to say "Intermission". Eppadi solradhunnu theriyala, romba buildup-a poyidum. Padam paarunga.

Movie was OK. First half was more gripping than second half. Arulnidhi is good.

[Peptobismol]

Movie was OK. First half was more gripping than second half. Arulnidhi is good.

Agreed, but still I liked it very much. What very slighlty disappointed me was the climax which again was good but could have been great. The movie moves in a mildly heavy way which would have been complemented properly if only the climax was tweaked dramatically. Arulnidhi has to be appreciated for his work but he has to develop his dialog delivery. If he continues choosing films in a clever way then we may never know where he might end up as I believe Tamil industry relies more on brains than looks when compared with Telugu and Hindi.

This film has been written cleverly enough to keep the expectations on the edge till it gets over and we can't say that it doesn't do justice but the potential it builds for itself never gets satisfied. If Mouna Guru had a song like "kangal irandal" and a hard-hitting climax it too would have been praised and hailed as a trendsetter like Subramaniapuram did. Why I am getting so worked up with the climax is I felt it to be kind of unsettling at least with regards to Arulnidhi's character.

But apart from that I found this movie extremely enthralling and being honest to itself. It doesn't take itself too seriously which always works out. At times I got reminded of Mysskin's films and one other film in particular: Raam.(might be a spoiler)

A definite catch. Mouna Guru might catch up in 2011's best list too.

I too felt the same. He didn't deserve that life in the end but overall a hard hitting movie.

[Peptobismol]

I forgot to mention Uma Riaz. Romba nalla naduchurukkaanga, experience na ennaanu appo thaan purinjudhu. Actually the whole cast has done a very good job, even small ones like that Ghilli Aadhivasi, the college guy etc.

A very well-thought and made movie.
