King Of The Evening(2010) - Nice period film with good performances

You will meet a Tall Dark Stranger(2010) - Somewhat disappointing end but quite watchable on the whole

Saw a Tamil movie that I liked quite a lot. Called 'KutraPirivu', the movie is about the often repeated police story. But what I liked was the realism that they showed, where the hero is shunted off, loses his girl friend to bullets, and does not go after the killers. Instead, he focuses on the task allocated to him of finding a bad element inside the police force. Throughout the movie, the hero is very human.

Very good acting by Srikant and PrithiviRaj.

Many people will not like this movie, but in my mind, it is worth seeing.

Cheers

Saw this movie recently.It was like reading a serious tamil novel.The director and the hero should be praised for their guts really.Though the core of the movie is the usual betrayal,love and human emotions its really some thing the way the director goes about his story telling.All the actors have done a really good job.Dhanush gives his best performance to date.Writer Jayabalan for a reluctant first time actor has done a great job.Though G V Prakash's 'aathe aathe' is more popular, i love the 'Otha sollale' song and the spontaneous dance the hero breaks in when the girl tells she loves him. Director Vetrimaran should be encouraged to give more meaningful movies like this.Its heartening to note that a movie like this is a biggest hit among the pongal releases.

cheers,
sri

Children of Heaven (1997) - IMDb

Its amazing how a movie can be made so beautifully with such a simple plot revolving around a pair of sneakers and its importance to the two poor sibling kids.

The movie goes from joy to despair to hope keeping the viewers engaged fully through the process.

A must watch (would rate it 9/10).

Oldboy (2003) - IMDb

A gut wrenching movie which is definitely not for the weak hearted. The movie will leave you gutted at the end with not just the gore but the underlying themes of cruelty and shock.

A truly amazing movie however some of the scenes may be vomit inducing.

Would rate it 7.5/10

Sud, agree with you. Children of Heaven is a such a simple movie that makes it a treat to watch.

I saw Tron. Looked and sounded fantastic on BR. The rest of the is mumbo-jumbo with no screenplay clarity - dreaming of better future, et al. My friend jokes that most disasters will start with the US - now that they are so convincing in their movies.

Couldn't disagree with you more on this. 'Udaan' is by far one of the best movies of the past few years and deserves atleast a rating of 4/5.

Oldboy (2003) - IMDb

I saw a Hindi movie (Zinda) with the same theme with Sanjay Dutt acting along with John Abraham. I quite liked Zinda. Must see Oldboy now.

Watched the Krzysztof Kieslowski's trilogy

Three Colors: Blue (1993) - IMDb

Three Colors: White (1994) - IMDb

Three Colors: Red (1994) - IMDb

The Three colors are the director's interpretation of the three colors of the French flag Blue, White and Red and his interpretation of their significance.

I liked them in the order of White, Red and Blue.

See them if you like serious, thinking movies and definitely stay away for mainstream lovers.

A really nice movie which is held together by great acting from Colin Firth and Geoffrey Rush.

Was skeptical due to the hype, but this movie is quite worth it.
