    New Era of 3D movies in Tamil Cinema

    Ambuli is an Excellent low budget movie (but going to be a block buster).

    I have seen Avatar, Kungfu panda, Piranha, Adventures of Tin Tin and couple of movies in Stereo scope 3D in Chennai-India. Ambuli gave me a wonderful surprising depth in Stereo scope 3D. This is amazing that it came better than any of the mentioned English movies.

    The Plot is very thriller, the way the story of Ambuli narrated is a perfect puzzle solving screenplay. There only one big star Parthiban is acted in this movie, others are not more familiar, but its perfect.

    The movie could have skipped the songs, especially the final climax song (that's boring). But its not going to affect the movie anyway.

    Overall I gave 10 for a Perfect and first 3D stereo movie in Tamil Film industry.

    A different attempt - One should encourage if they like Sci-fi movies

    The movie is fairly under-rated. This is a very different attempt in Tamil movies.

    Cons: 3D effect of the movie is the major draw back. A better casting would have helped the movie. Climax could have been better.

    Pros: Has a strong story that will make you keep watching. Very minimal songs. Good screenplay.

    I would definitely advice to give it a watch do not trust the cumulative rating

    Underrated af .Giving 10 to up the rating

    Actual rating 8/10 for the story... You'd think you're watching a tv serial coz the making is that awful . The main characters are bad in acting, the songs are really bad, the comedy scenes are cheesy, romance ? Yuck . But still i gave it 8 coz the story is insanely good. The Creature makeup and practical effects are good .. All this in 2012.. really appreciate the courage to make a film like this at that time... Tamil industry always makes me wonder "how in the world did they get the audacity to make experimental movies like this . Sci fi movies were a piece of cake for tamil industry and they'd make it in a low budget as well.. no matter if those movies are inspired or copied from hollywood movies , but the thought of trying to do something different and wanna make movies like hollywood ,deserves a loud applause..

    Anyway i liked this movie.. if this movie was made with a better cast, better direction and a better budget, the movie would've been out of the world.. Loved the story..

    Ambuli

    The movie was so good. Everybody acted good in the movie. Songs and BGM in the movie were worst. The movie can be more interesting and thrilling.

    Ambuli - New Beginning of Future Tamil Movies

    Just Before watched the movie in Sathyam Theater (Chennai). A very Good Attempt. Very interesting story flow is the Big plus of this movie. Songs are very Big minus of this movie. 3D is another plus. But comparing to the Hollywood standard, watching movie experience is pain full. Too much of 3D effects. Lot of powerful lights very near to our eye. Too much of fast moving objects very near to our eye. So it results headache and pain for me. i don't know these kind of movies needs any health measure before releasing the movies. Anyway,This is first attempt in Tamil cinema. Only negatives are songs and too much of "near to eye 3D effects". Other than this everything is OK for me.

    My Final Verdict : Two thumps up. Please encourage this movie. Then only more standard movies will come after this.

    My rating : 9/10
