Moodar Koodam

I watched Moodar Koodam recently, expecting it to be another normal attempt to make a different cult black comedy in Tamil cinema. I was proved wrong as the movie developed at it's own pace. Director Naveen has not just directed his debut with extreme hard work, but also with a great ambition to instill awareness in the mainstream audience. I found many reviews criticizing this film's loose script and almost fell for that trap. After watching this film, I was once again proved that Kollywood critics and reviewers aren't reliable at all. This film shouldn't be missed at all costs, miss it at your own risk. The philosophies in this film are perfectly fitted into the specified scenes. Yet again, this is another film which cannot be enjoyed and liked by everyone. If you're looking for a change in your daily mainstream taste of films, this is the film to begin with. Overall rating: 8.5/10 (82%)

How did I miss this movie in 2013? Such a well crafted movie and a new approach to Tamil cinema. Not only the comedy hooks you but also the timely dialogues that makes you think like a philosopher. Each and every character showed their best! Special mention: everyone in the movie. Though its heavily inspired from the korean movie "attack the gas station" it is still worth the watch

But there are some scenes with a little lag on the first half of the movie. But overall great movie. It is like a gem in a group of weeds (commercial mass hero movies)

So after soodhu kavvum and neram, v have the next dark comedy film dis year. Tamil cinema surely is progressing and its great to see these new type of genres being attempted. But while the earlier two had on a brighter look, dis movie takes a look at the poor and the lower class n d tone of d film s dark mostly...the story is really simple...4 desperate guys decide to steal a rich man...what happens when they arrive at his house forms the entire story. the narration is top notch and is almost up to Hollywood standards using imaginative flashbacks...while i would not like to reveal much more i would advise every1 to catch this movie...naveen surely has a great future ahead both as a director and an actor...sentrayan simply steals the show...n every1 chipped in with good performances...there was not a single boring moment in the movie!!!! a great comedy by a new team...don't miss moodar koodam!!!!

One of the best dialogues in Tamil Cinema.

Each character's back story are portrayed through songs. Politics, communism, racism, status and what not. This movie has everything.

When that kid says 'this was the first time someone trusted me, so I will have to uphold the trust no matter what' - this single scene is enough to explain about the education system and parent's mentality in Tamil Nadu.

JP acted in this movie without any ego. Everyone's acting is so on point to the character. But that character depth itself has become a disadvantage in some scenes. Little slow pace and less interesting events are the only negatives. Auto guy's character and his goons occupy the movie for 10-15 mons in between which is absolutely not needed and adds no value in the movie.

Long way to go for Naveen brother. His acting, dialog delivery everything is perfect. If you want to watch a movie which gives you a deep thought on how broken our society is, then go for it.

Kollywood marches to unconventional movie making these days. Must say that was quite impressed to view a movie so good taken in a limited budget. On one end, there are movies filled with number of songs, foreign locations, expensive sets, big stars, glamorous women and techies but terribly fails in script and screenplay. The director of the movie, a newbie, has given the audience a movie in 'almost' a single location (a house). It reminds me of the Tarantino's style in Reservoir Dogs. I strongly recommend the audience to watch this movie at least once but PARENTAL GUIDANCE is strongly recommended if children watch the director's cut like me which I would recommend. One tiny-teeny demerit in this movie is about the director's character which falls behind certain scenes, I feel. Watch out for goofy 'Sendraayan' and the little girl's character, she's cute as hell.
