Madras

This North Madras movie is a delight to hear and all the actors and others artists who have contributed to this effect, deserve a pat.

Madras, though on the longer side and venturing into predictable territory beyond a point, stands out for the presentation, the characterizations, the performances and for the unflinching direction efforts of Ranjith.

The movie does tries to preach, but thankfully doesn't stray too much. A film of such genre, with a rag-tag cast usually falls in the hands of a new comer or a struggling actor. So, though it's surprising to see actors like him do it, it feels good to know that they aren't afraid to experiment.

Madras is the right blend of raw action and commercial entertainment with a screenplay that will keep you hooked. Santhosh's soulful music and Karthi's brilliant performance, are other reasons this movie is a must watch.

Prestige, Politics, Friendship, Love & Anger is MADRAS.

Director Ranjith selection in cast and other technical crew work's out without any fault. All lead and supporting gave the new colour to the Chennai. Supporting actor Kalaiyarasan seems to be a promising one in the future. Composer Santhosh Narayan's delightful music is extraordinary.

After Berlin wall, Madras movie has a dangerous wall. Realistic stunt sequence is trending among the Action lovers and this move doesn't fail to keep it.

Verdict: Welcome to the new colour of Chennai city.

"Madras" is a film written and directed by Pa. Ranjith.

The spirit of the film is the intensity of the deep friendly relationship between the characters Kali (Karthi) and Anp (Kalaiyarasan).

The director manages to overcome all the pitfalls of presenting friendship, love, politics and hatred in the same thread through deep character creation.

The movie mainly tells the story of the problems and betrayals faced by the common man who emotionally embraces party politics without even understanding the main agenda of the political parties to exploit the social system of democracy in the most convenient way for their own convenience.

The film begins with a series of political struggles in which two factions have to be martyred in an ongoing dispute over a seemingly insignificant wall. Those who walk shoulder to shoulder for trivial things wield each other's swords.

The dispute over that wall does not end with the passing of generations. Even the image of a political leader painted on the wall is gaining relevance later in the film. As some of the stories spread around it, the wall becomes an integral part of the story.

It is impossible not to appreciate the director's excellence in adapting some of these things in the story that seem trivial and irrelevant at first glance in a serious and relevant way in the film's forward journey.

By reducing the number of close-up shots, the cameraman is able to draw the audience's attention to various parts of the scene through wide and long shot scenes.

A film that excelled from the beginning to the end of the film in terms of presentation style and performance of the actors.

Director Pa ranjith even in his previous movie attakatthi, now in this movie portrays the emotions of common man of north madras correctly....

Nowadays i'm keep on wondering on the astonishing growth of Tamil cinema industry....Rather than showing usual fights, usual dramatic romance, usual heroism, usual buildups of normal Indian movies...they are standalone....This movie is one of its kind....

It clearly portrays the normal chennayite.....It showcases two different characters...one anbu, a energetic, political knowledged bravo...who is keen on developing the people of their region....another one, Kali(actor karthi)...a friend who just want to live his life happily...

As everyone has written so much in the above reviews..i don't want to narrate the story once again..i just want to tell some important things and drawbacks in this story

The film gives a social message to oppressed people as well as others that political knowledge is a must....As we are seeing the effects of lack of political knowledge in this dumbest generation......It also shows usual fights of the same region guys....

selection of actor karthi is good......but heroine selection is normal....They should have chosen some local chennai girl for this story....Even Anbu's wife Mary could have been selected as a heroine, as she represents the face of north chennai girls, moreover she is nice and beautiful....But Catherine will suit for other stories that will be story packed as well as commercial stuffs....

every song is nice...background sometimes playing when it doesn't require and it doesn't play when it is required....Like it plays when the masses try to erase the wall by pouring paints..at that time the music try to diminish the main thing protest...and it is been portrayed dramatically...Likewise when kali try to kill villain guy at last...simply background music plays..it should play when viji kill already beaten villain....

Of total...it is total superb movie with a important message that everyone should be taught of social politics which is needed for todays generations...and it shows kali starts doing it..instead of becoming usual hero involving in politics....Hats off to director pa ranjith...It 's a movie which we shouldn't miss
