Natchathiram Nagargirathu

RATED 9/10 Language: Tamil Source: Nil RECOMMENDED

From the beginning to end the movie is not deviated from the core subject. No extra scenes, sentiments and comedies. These are are very much positive points to the movie at the same time sidelines the movie into artistic one rather than entertaining one.

This is pure Art-Cult-Brave movie and must watch for every cinema lovers. The first half looks filled with more conversations and bit over done, might be I got this feeling because of all scenes shot in single location. The second half is bit breezy. The Movie is point blank at the same time it was funny in places.

The biggest strength of this movie is the dialogs. There is some hidden gem shots like "door with light rays on Buddha painting and the person sitting near the wild cat in climax" The climax fight is bit hurried wind-up but I liked this one. The "beach meet" after climax fight is cherry on top scene.

Must watch for everyone, especially who want to self analyse the love life...

All my life I have suffered by the society in various scenarios. Being a child whose mom ran away!! I got to understand the dark side of this society at a very young age. Inequality is everywhere, from the drinking glass to job promotions... this movie helped me to understood on how to handle the anger that I built upon myself!!

Rene's laugh is inspiring a lot!! Thanks Ranjith!!

1. Tenma's music is awesome!! But it would have been better to have a different sound for the shooting star. Whole scoring is a beautifully wrapped with the story 2. I'm from Pondicherry... and this is the first movie which actually shows what the culture in this city that I have experienced!!!

3. I can see kalidas really understood the movie but his acting is not enough to register his character in my mind... like Rene, shabeer and Master, Hari !!

4. A guy who was inside the photo(karu arukapata pen) from the drama rehearsal acted really well!!

5. As per baddy's review, This movie is above all these good bad average terms 6. Movie like this will live in Tamil cinema forever.

There are two types of movies - one where things seem normal until the caste angle comes into the picture (eg., Kaadhal, Vazhakku en) and the 2nd is Pa Ranjith, Maari Selvaraj movies where everything revolves around characters oppressed by caste. The problem with the 2nd type of movies - the makers care more about the ideology rather than the drama (or) the screenplay making it a preachy documentary rather than a entertaining movie.

Thats the main reason this movie is not for everyone. However if you are an ideological person and one who criticizes society, this movie and it's world is for you.

I really wanted to love this movie, but unfortunately it is a bit too messy and meanders (especially the first half) a bit too much for me to like it.

This is a bold attempt and social commentary and message(s) ( there is far too many and only 1 or may be 2 gets proper resolution or justice - all others just gets thrown around )

I think the basic problem was that the movie was like a druggie rapping - it was raw, real and mostly hitting out some hard-hitting truth - but lacks cohesion, resolution and completeness !

The acting is largely good, music is pretty decent and script is good as well.

Had this been edited a bit more crispier and some unwanted social commentary removed (those the core of the movie is not addressing ) it would have been a compelling watch.

Politics of Love . Natchathiram Nagargiradhu was beautiful movie . Well written and very well executed . Asusual Pa. Ranjith didn't fail to give equal scope for all characters in the movie , each and every character were well designed . Movie tells about love and it's politics , actually this kinda topic was really intresting and thought provoking , it was deep rooted into the topic . Dialogues were back bone of the movie , it was hard hitting and strong . This time making was bit different from Pa Ranjith , surreal type of making was good ( Dope vro ) . My favorite part was Village portion , actually they didn't try to make us laugh but it was totally hilarious . Music and songs were good from Tenma . Technically cinematography was awesome and good editing . Overall a must watch movie .
