Show me a better comedy movie ra lyftime settlement.

It was Jim Carey doing flight stunts before Tom Cruise.

A 24year old filmmaker understood cinema better than all the so called senior filmmakers of Indian film industry.

One of those rare, soul-stirring films, it didn’t just entertain, it reached in and settled somewhere deep. The music, the visuals, the locations, the characters… everything flowed with such grace and quiet intensity. I can’t fully put it into words, but it did something to me. I felt seen, moved, and completely in love with it. It’s not just a film, it’s a feeling I’ll carry for a long, long time. I love.

Last 30mins peak ra. Vishal na massuh.
Vera edhum solra mari illa.

Still fresh af

I walked out of the theatre with a strange mix of adrenaline and ache. Not because the story moved me, but because it closed a chapter I grew up living inside.

I didn’t just watch a franchise.
I watched Tom Cruise, year after year run like a man possessed, fight with that fire in his eyes, hang from planes, cling to cliffs, crash bikes, drive off edges, and kiss danger and hot women like it was written into his DNA.

Whom will I watch now do all that?
Whom will I watch sprint across rooftops ,
grin at gravity, beat time itself, and do every insane stunt just to keep us believing in cinema?

He didn’t play Ethan Hunt.
He breathed him.
And in doing so, he gave us not just a hero but a masterclass in discipline, madness, and relentless love for film.
He made entertainment feel like a promise. One he always kept.

So if this really is the end of the road…

Thank you, Ethan Hunt, for entertaining.
And thank you, Tom Cruise, for inspiring.
The mission may be over,
but your legacy? That runs forever.

Legend isn't a big enough word for you.

Cindrella for The Substance fans.

"Ooraar odhukki vecha oviyam...
Enna porutha vara kaaviyam"
Haven't been obsessed with a film this much in recent.

Poetic in its plot, it is visually mesmerizing with rich cinematography and a carefully curated color palette. The performances are captivating, the music is soothing, and every technical element is executed with finesse. Yet, there's a huge void. I was stunned, yes, but I don't think I enjoyed it to the fullest. There's something missing, idk what tho.

THIS IS COOL AS FUCK CRAZY CRAZY CRAZY STUFF AVLO DHAAN CUT AND RIGHT AA SOLLIKIDUDHEN.

There’s such a glaring lack of high-concept adventure films in Tamil cinema , and that’s exactly why this one hit so hard for me. It dared to be different, and even with its flaws, I was entertained from start to finish. The script had insane potential, like, genuinely wild narration, and while the execution stumbled in parts, the sheer ambition was undeniable.

Sury and Joju peaked in performance. But my god, Jayaram Sir devoured the screen. He didn’t just act, he glided through with masterful subtlety, eating everyone up frame by frame. Pooja was serviceable, but honestly, the role demanded a sharper presence, a better casting choice might have elevated that arc.

Santhosh Narayanan just obliterated the soundtrack — both BGM and songs were chef’s kiss. Thooki saptaaru aama. And the cinematography? Pure visual poetry , every frame felt crafted with care and precision.

What truly elevated the film were the layered references — the quiet nods to Superstar, the spiritual threads of Buddhism, the echoes of Sanatan Dharm... sublime. And the Retro Ilayaraja songs on full stretch watha peakuh ra peakuh SENORITAA I LOVE YOU EN SWEET HEART YOUU LOVEE MEE

AND THAT OPENING 20-MINUTE KALYANAM SINGLE SHOT??
HOLY. MOTHER. OF. CINEMA.
That wasn’t just a scene, that was a full-blown cinematic event. Absolutely mind-blowing. Adhu dhaan sambavam.

Had the screenplay maintained its grip all the way through, this could've easily stood shoulder-to-shoulder with cult classics. Still, it delivers heaps of entertainment — bold, vibrant, and gloriously messy in the best way.

LOADS AND LOADS OF ENTERTAINMENT I LOVED.

Hot men and women all around.

I found myself frozen in front of the screen, lost in thought for what felt like an eternity after the film ended. For the full 90 minutes, I was adrift in a haze of confusion, grappling to comprehend the depths of what I had just witnessed. Yet, as the credits rolled, its weight all crashed down on me. Tears streamed down my face, a stream of emotion I could neither control nor fully understand.

That haunting still shot of the crew viewing the gas chambers pierced my heart like a knife. How could someone capture such profound horror in a single frame? Cinematographer- respect🙏

My man becomes Madura Veeran again. Dhil, Dhool, Arul, Saamy Chiyaan is very back. A very well written raw and rustic rural action thriller. Cinematography and music were very good. Shudve made a few cuts here and there but still overall kaara saaramana Madurai kari virundhu🙏

Prithvi Ettan wasn’t allowed to enter the airport because the metal detector started beeping near his balls. GUTS, ETTA. GUTS. Truly, balls of steel.

Every Sangh Parivar member took a hit with this one. They’ll celebrate The Kashmir Files, Chaava, The Kerala Story, but call this propaganda. Hypocrisy at its finest.

Grateful to have witnessed the uncut version 🙏. Yes, this film could’ve been so much better the excessive slow-motion, overdone elevations, and a screenplay that could have been tighter. But again, this is just a teaser for L3.

World-class filmmaking. Prithviraj is on his way to becoming the one true brand of Mollywood.

ENNAA PADAM BOSS EYY. KUDUMBASTHAN S GOATED INDIE KOLLYWOOD CLUB AFTER MY POOKIE LUBBER PANDHU.
To begin with, Guru Somasundaram- one of the greatest actors of this generation- that two minutes I spoke with you is still one of the most special moments of my life. As usual, I don't even deserve to talk about your performance, sir; you nailed it. Aprom MANII I LOVEE YOUU MANII, a week back my lil 5yo sister asked me NEE YAARU FAN? I replied with NAA MANIKANDAN FAN. Nee massuh ya you are reviving the dead-feel-good genre in Tamil. All your films are fine, and you're fine as fuck. Pacing falls down anga anga but the beautifully crafted humour covers it up. The music was very good, yes. Inter-caste middle-class family ke ipdi an, I'm from an inter-religion middle-class casteist family, I've seen all this in ultra-pro-max version. 2 in 3 scenes were very relatable. Onnu mela irukanum illa keezha irukanum naduvula maatuna pineesh dhaan, subway surfers life odineyy irukanum. Every character arc was so beautifully written, performance ellam pinnitaanga. I can go on talking about this. LOVELY MOVIE. THANK YOU FOR THIS BEAUTIFUL PICTURE.

Em movie ra mowa.
I literally grew up watching this.
A film with heart and soul this is.
Beyond beyond beautiful.
The idea of family and coexistence itself is the lost beauty of our lives.
Music top notch, Sam and Bob top notch Venky peakuh.
All this aside Prakrash Raj's role is the reason why I rewatch this movie often, Philosophy for life it is.

Indha padathukku ennada prachana- Y'all can go watch Pushpa 2 and celebrate that,genuinely 🙏. This is the kind of action film that Thala should be in. It is exceptionally well-made and technically brilliant. The first half is excellent, while the second half may feel slightly stretched with the fights, but that’s acceptable for a commercial film. The breakdown is handled with justice. While some may find the emotional aspect funny, it resonated with me. AK's portrayal of Arjun is outstanding. Arjun- The man I aspire to be 🙏

This film is impressive in every way. How can a film be both very silent and very loud at the same time? It’s a pure showcase of courage and boldness. The screenplay is beautifully adapted, with authentic sets and immersive cinematography. Cillian Murphy’s performance is simply phenomenal—I'm speechless.

The film explores how religion, which is meant to offer hope, can become a tool of control when it falls into the wrong hands. True spirituality seeks liberation, but the clergy, using the fear of damnation, often constructs cages that enforce obedience not through love, but through guilt, shame, and silence. Morality is not determined by robes and rituals but by the courage to stand up against injustice even when it arises from the pulpit.

This is not just a story of one man's moral awakening it serves as a microcosm of Ireland's slow and painful journey toward confronting the abuses of the Church. This film is not merely a historical drama; it is a call to , acknowledge, and ensure that such horrors are never repeated. Films like this fulfill the true purpose of cinema.

Serupala adicha mari iruku.🙏

Mangal Bhavan Amangal Haari🙏🛐

Rama, who walked the path of dharma with unwavering devotion, and Krishna, who shaped dharma to uphold divine justice, this is the timeless beauty of Sanatan Dharma, where every truth of life is intricately woven. It is both inspiring and disheartening to see how even the Japanese have beautifully interpreted our sacred heritage, while we often falter in doing it justice.

This film stands as a masterpiece, the finest adaptation of the Ramayana since Ramanand Sagar Ji’s legendary work. Its music and animation remain as fresh and soul-stirring as ever.Om Raut can go fuck himself. May Nitesh Tiwari honor the epic as it truly deserves.

With this film, the Hanuman Chalisa, and the Bhagavad Gita by your side, no path seems tough.

I was not entertained.
I was beyond disappointed.
The writing was very weak, more like no writing at all, with not a single fresh scene.
There's zero character development, zero research and development, zero hype moments, zero historical authenticity, and 100% cinematic liberty.
Every scene, every move, every character felt cliché.
The dialogue sounds AI-generated.
No one's performance seems solid except for Denzel Washington's, wow, what a true actor he is. Everything in this movie felt forced and artificial, nothing was genuinely enjoyable, creating no impression. The Sharks in the Colosseum scene, oh my god, what creativity at its peak, I was dead. The score also fell short, lacking even 10% of what Hans Zimmer provided in the original version. The sets were good, the cinematography was good, Denzel Washington's performance was good, and yes, everything else was not good. I knew where we were headed when they played "No Church in the Wild" in the trailer, but yes, I still had my hopes, and yes, they were successfully buried. :(

A true masterpiece.
Probably the most haunting biopic ever made.
How can a film be this flawless? I enjoyed every single second and couldn't take my eyes off the screen. Wow, just wow! Jolie, the love of my life, delivered her best performance yet, definitely. I could feel my fingers trembling during the Paris opera scene like literally yes.
Maria is like a love letter written in flames, ionate, fleeting, and burning itself into your memory with every scene.
It was magnificent yes.

"Knock Knock in a Parallel Universe"

I genuinely thought it was a compliment when people told me I sound like Hugh Grant from this film when I yap. But yes makes sense.

The first half of the film is truly captivating, marked by profound theological points articulated beautifully. The screenplay hooks you in, leaving you eagerly anticipating what comes next. Unfortunately, what comes next is 🤡🙏

This isn't just a film, this is hope.
And that's what the world needs right now.
I've always believed in Abishek and yes he did it.
Thank you for this film, adding this to my go-to films.🙏
