Karthi, Kalaiyarasan, and Catherine Tresa in Madras (2014)

Review by immyfastero

Madras

9/10

A nice message movie for the masses....the original madras citizens

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
