Madrasapattinam - Worth watching

There are clear signs of inspiration from Titanic and Lagaan. We have seen some local-international love already in Tamil movies. But definitely, none of these factors shall stop you from watching this movie.

This romantic tale set to have happened in 40s is fit for a cool watch. There may not be many interesting scenes. But definitely, there are no irritating scenes.

The picture might have not depicted the things that had happened during independence exactly. But definitely, there are no big logical flaws

We could get some synthetic feel of 40s. But definitely, the efforts that have gone behind art direction has come out well. We are happy to see the clean Koovam.

We need actors like Arya who have not fallen into any image (as of now) to act in this kind of movie. Ullam Ketkume, Sarvam, Pattiyal, Naan Kadavul and this movie Madrasapattinam... Arya had always delivered whatever is required by the director. Please be the same, Arya!

Amy Jackson.. New definition of beauty! :) This movie is worth watch at least for seeing her ;). Thanks for not choosing 'just a fair' foreign lady. Good choice!


G.V.Prakash.. Another decent album from him. Even BGM is good. The chorus background which comes throughout the movie is still ringing in my ears.

Director: A.L.Vijay... I became a fan of this guy after seeing 'Poi solla porom'.. I would go to the extent of saying that it was the best crisp and fast screenplay I had ever seen. That kind of pace is missing in this movie. There will be hidden humour spread throughout Poi solla porom which is also missing in this movie. But we have to appreciate him for taking a completely different movie (a tough one too). You are definitely in the list of 'Promising directors' Vijay.

 Madrasapattinam is definitely worth watching (at least once) in theatre.
