Parking

One of the best ego clash movie i have ever witnessed in any language. This will be one of the best in tamil ever. Harish kalyan will be his career best movie, one of the best performance from him. And M. S. Baskar omg he is a master of all perfomances. The negative shade which has perfectly suited him. He just lived in that character. Every scene and screenplay is top notch not a bit boredom. A pure ego clash. The director script is soo good. So animative and makes audience feel the heat in the seat. A perfect thriller. Parking a must watch movie available in hotstar. Please do watch it. All the other characters did their best.

Yes, the ending wasn't great, but let's set that aside for a moment. 2023 has witnessed the release of a few unexpectedly good single-conflict Tamil movies; from 'Good Night', to 'Ayodhi', to 'Dada', etc. Joining this impressive list is Ramkumar Balakrishnan's 'Parking', where a seemingly trivial dispute between two tenants over a parking space spirals out of control propelled by the egos on both sides. A premise this simple is dangerously easy to fumble, but debutant Balakrishnan's measured self-awareness makes the cinematic experience fresh and rewarding.

The film's success is underpinned by several factors, with the standout being its acting unit. Veteran actor M. S. Bhaskar delivers one of his most compelling performances to date, understanding the depths of his character and playing it to uncriticizable perfection. Complementing his presence is co-lead Harish Kalyan, whose uncompromising performance matches auras with that of Bhaskar's. The supporting cast too is equally well-chosen, seamlessly blending into the narrative when required. On the technical side, much credit is due to the director for elevating what could have been yet another low-budget B-movie into a finely crafted thriller. Every directorial choice is meticulously thought out and executed to perfection, with cinematography and sound playing pivotal roles in stylizing the movie.

Now onto the climax, which I'll avoid spoiling with specifics. The film maintains a consistent tone throughout, and the way in which the movie progressed, the ending seemed almost inevitable. While the logic behind the climax can be debated, the extent to which the conflict gets overblown seems a tad ridiculous and bombastic for the sake of an elevated climax. If it had been any more careless in its handling, it could have severely undermined an otherwise great movie. Thankfully, the damage isn't irreparable, and 'Parking' can still be relished for its thrilling buildup and pointed storytelling. If you're contemplating watching this movie, please do go ahead. The climax can always be debated afterwards.

The core conflict is slightly misleading, and the basic premise (from outside) may raise doubts among the majority of viewers, who would question how a simple disagreement over a parking spot could lead to more serious consequences.

I can understand their concerns, as I had the same doubts initially. My skepticism grew during the first half an hour, as there were no major events taking place. However, once the story started to escalate, there was hardly any time to catch your breath. This was thanks to a fast-paced screenplay that kept the momentum going.

"Parking" is undoubtedly one of the better films in the Anti-Revenge space, with a strong script that delves into the clash of egos between two self-centered individuals and their ideological differences, portrayed with remarkable authority and conviction.

My only complaint is the lack of development for the supporting characters. While I was fully invested in the intense battle of egos between the lead characters, I wish there had been more emphasis on their families to make me more worried about their well-being.

Unique writing and screenplay. Great acting by Harish and MS Bhasker. An ego fight between two adults. Two men taking out their frustrations on each other. I couldn't think of any Tamil movie of this sort in the past decade. Things start small and become so huge. Indhuja has also done a good job. The struggle is real with rented places! An apt title for this movie. It's easy to gel into this story. Supporting actors have also done a fab job. No songs, no comedy, cliche scenes or dialogues. The movie is to the point and would not let you think of anything beyond. Unlike his other movies, Harish has chosen a different genre this time.

Wow..No words to express.. really a fantastic movie with great screenplay. No any movies in recent times like this. MS Bhaskar and Harish acting 👏👍👍. Sam CS music 🔥. Really a theatrical experience. Don't wait for OTT release. Must watch in theatres. A drama movie with thriller elements is a new attempt. Second half is a emotion with seat edge thriller. Family entertainer with a unexpected twist at interval block. Worth for money. Trailer looks simple but the movie is executed well. Without any promotion, this movie will be a blockbuster and the best movie in Harish history. Don't miss this gem. Watch in theatres.
