Maryan

Reviews and criticism from people of poor ability and patience to watch some beauty in the screen always kept the real value of movies from south India away from reality making.

Every Year there is a surprise movie in Tamil Film Industry listing that stands top of the table ,for this year undoubtedly its Maryan on top 3.

Director Bharath Bala for his first movie but with years of experience in the industry has slowly crafted his vision on a simple script to a poetic screenplay with the support of the best cast. An emotional tale of love ,Pain, struggle so well delivered by the artist the best in south Dhanush,Parvathy in specific.

Cinematography Marc Koninckx is so brilliant and framed the best colors in both the countries and that never makes you feel the movie slow in second half supported by Vivek Harshan's cuts, just watch and admire.

AR Rahman "FASCINATING".

Keep the Spirits of Tamil movies UP

This film is, was and will always be amazing. It was an amazing experience from director Bharatbala, Oscar-winning A.R. Rahman, and of course National award winning actor Dhanush. Firstly, the film had the best cinematography ever, kudos to the Belgian film maker, Marc Koninckx. The music was of course, breath-taking, no doubt about that. The story was simple and perfect to fit the 'hope' theme promised. Every actor in this movie has obviously given their best, mainly actor Dhanush. The first half of the film reveals his origins as a fisherman, while the second half is mainly in Africa, depicting his working life there. Every frame of this film has been shot with meaning and realism. This movie, in my opinion, has surpassed many Hollywood films in many ways. Overall, Maryan is an amazing masterpiece and is highly recommended for 'A' class audiences only.

Dhanush has become the new word for acting. He's super natural and out performing at his best.

Maryan has brought the maximum out of Dhanush and the best of his film ever. Maryan; Starting with a great plot, strengthened by perfect characters, music that touches your heart by A.R Rahman & finally given soul by Dhanush.

It has everything to fulfill you. Romance, Action, thrilling, emotions, best music, background score & a great plot. It's best from every aspect & it's an evolution it tamil film industry.

Go for it.. It worth watching 1000 times..

Mariyaan comes as a serious drama thriller with a strong and soulful love story on the backdrop. The story claims that it is loosely based on the true story about three immigrant oil workers who were kidnapped by the terrorists in Sudan back in 2008.

Let's first start with the back bone of the movie that is the plot it is about two things in life 1.Love and 2.Survival of the fittest. As the two contrasting things the films also opens like two parts one love and coastal life near Kanyakumari and the other is survival life in Sudan. These tracks travel side by side in the film and finally we see the actual soulful merge.

The cinematography by the renowned Belgian Marc Koninckx brings life on the two contrasting terrains of the story 1.Coastal region of southern Tamil Nadu 2.Desserts of Sudan,Africa. His cinematography is simply brilliant which gives life to the story.

The lead actors of the movie rather the pillars of the story were Parvathy and Dhanush. They both have done a scintillating performance. They were brilliant and competing each other. Particularly the lady lead Parvathy Menon of the movie "Poo" fame didn't allow the lead male character Mariyaan to overshadow her skills at any place making us say superb acting. Dhanush is becoming an iconic and most important actor in Indian film industry. He is in the right track and has used this opportunity to grab the next national Award. Other actors Jagan and Appukutty as friends did their parts well. The little odd on characterization was the heroine's father and the hero's mother it was too artificial to look young people with older getup instead they could have given it to some good old character artists in the industry.

Director Bharath Bala is joining hands with ARR after vande matram their duo has worked well and has created the necessary magic through music on screen. As per the songs I felt it good along with the movie rather as an individual album.

Worth mention would be the hallucination scene which brought Cheetah on screen and the underwater sequences were marvelous.

The film's length could have been little less but that does not stop me saying this is a good masterpiece in Tamil cinema.

Verdict: A worth watch movie for real story and acting based movie lovers. Otherwise commercial movie lovers stay away from this flick!!
