அன்பே சிவம்
The meeting and the subsequent interactions between a capitalist and a communist on their journey bring them together to a cordial relationship, at the end in this light hearted comedy. The plot takes twists at the right times and the director has been careful to feed the elements rightfully and play within the limitations of the script.
Plus Points:
1) Kamal and the cast of characters: Kamal, as ever, is the pick of the lot with his storytelling abilities and as a handicapped middle aged communist. Nalla has been ably supported by the youthful, selfish, smart capitalist in Ars.
2) Light hearted storyline: The storyline has been brilliantly filmed to merit a due applause, with its flow in a cool manner.

The Hours
Plus Points:
1) Mrs.Dollaway and the characters: The extremely behaving Mrs.Dollaway and the cast of the characters set the tone for the movie across the ages.
2) Storyline: The storyline has been impressive and the hopping between the state of mind of the three ladies across the geographies and the time zones keep the audiences engrossed and the writer takes credit for scripting a plot which maintains its identity amidst the traditional monotonous jazzy films.
Minus Points:
1) The slowness of the movie and the adult contents of the story may not enthuse an active movie watcher.
The movie with an outlook of a 'serious' film, is worth watching for its ability to keep the audiences glued and guessing till the climactic end of its own. The true original script definitely deserves an ovation!

This is the story of an individual who chooses to serve the weaker section of the society over being an apt successor to great classical music champion. Storyteller Balachander takes up the cause and moves the film in an interesting manner to bring up the climactic end to the duel.
Plus Points:
1) Balachander and his storyline: The storyline is the key to the success of the film and Balachander puts forth a lively and powerful script in a likeable fashion.
2) Kamal Hassan: Kamal carries the script in his shoulders matching the brilliance of the script with his lively performance
3) Ilayaraja’s music: Ilayaraja, as ever has scored the BGM music to naturally fit into the moods of the scenes and the characters.
Minus Points:
1) The first half brilliance of the movie is little matched with the second half. The scriptwriter has struggled to create the intensity and is a disappointing affair.
