Jilla (2014)
Jilla - My Thought
It is a movie with a good base story but a poor first half with an excellent middle half and a little lengthy final half.
Pros:
1. Actor Vijay with his screen presence is stealing the show in most of the scenes.
2. Pretty good songs and BGM by Imman. Intro song, Kandangi and Treatu song is a delight to watch.
3. Actor Sampath with his classy acting.
4. Stunt sequences are good and apt for a masala entertainer.
Cons:
1. Poor artist selection by Director Neason. A versatile actor like Mohan lal has been wasted with just shouting "Naan Sivan da
Sivan illana Sakthi illa". The story is based in Madurai and Mohan Lal speaking a tamil mixed with malayalam slang is little hard to accept. I felt actor like Raj Kiran would have suited this character pretty well.
2. The most first half comedy is pretty bad. Parotta Soori following Santhanam's path of double meaning comedy is very disappointing. Vijay's so called comedy with Kajal Agarwal by touching her ass is so awkward. An actor like Vijay who also has the inbuilt talent of comedy can do much better.
3. Kajal Agarwal, was really funny to see her in Police Attire.
4. Actor Vijay's dialog delivery in few places reminds me Mahesh Babu's dialogue delivery in Dhookudu movie. He could have tried little differently.
5. Good Actors like Azhagam Perumal, Ravi Maria were not properly utilized.
So to summarize, jilla a 6 star rated movie that can be watched once.
Veeram (2014)
Veeram - My Thought
Veeram - A perfect blend of mass action, comedy, romance and sentiment. Director Siva has read audience pulse perfectly. I feel it has the best ever introduction scene for Ajith when compare to his other films which justifies his nick name "Thala". This movie fully revolves around Ajith and I doubt if any other hero can create this much impact for this character.
Pros: 1. Ajith's action is phenomenal. To mention a few his Introducton, tender auction scene, train fight sequence, festival fight, the climax flight .
2. Comedy from actor Santhanam which made me laugh at last. Some quality comedy from him after many crap movies. But still if he should have reduced those few double meaning comedies it would have been more quality.
3. DSP's BGM which is a big support in many scenes. It is his BGM which makes us feel the real mass of Ajith in many scenes.
4. Cinematography is pretty awesome. A full 100 marks for the cinematographer. I loved his introduction scene and auction scene camera work.
5. No overacting Tamannah which I feel is another plus for the movie.
Cons: 1. Songs not that catchy as everyone already expected. Very poor choreography for couple of duet songs. The worst is Thangamae Thangamae song followed by Kannum Kannum song. Producer's money wasted in foreign location. But still the Intro song and the festival song is watchable.
2.Actor Thambi ramaiah. Felt a little Irritating acting. Just remembered this character suits aptly for a comedian like Vadivelu.
3.Ajith's second half shaved getup takes little time to accept. Not seen him like that for many years.
Was surprised and happy to see late actor Abdullah (a) periyar dasan in this last movie.
All together Veeram a perfect mass entertainer which satisfies not only Ajith fans but all kind of audience. And now we can expect Income Tax ride in producer's house.
My Verdict : Veeram a 8 star rated movie which can be watched in theaters multiple times for that one introduction scene of the Great Thala Ajith.
