Mandela

From all aspects good. Unexpected i watched this movie. This should have been one of the block buster movie if it was marketed properly.

Few more strong scence to show people and mandala bond would have taken this to next level.

Quality movies are rare in Tamil cinema, movies that impress both mainstream audiences and film connoisseurs are rarer, full credit to director Madonne Ashwin, Tamil audiences get a chance to experience something that is very well crafted and swashbuckling, at least once in 3 years. It's a big shame that Mandela couldn't garner a much wider theatrical release. Mandela is a comical political satire, that is wonderfully presented to us by its loveable, authentic, rustic, well defined and strong characters led by the inimitable Yogi Babu.

Mandela has a strong storyline, that will make the viewers think and inspire in various ways. Cinematography is topnotch, with the DOP's choice of filter aiding the mood of the tale. Screenplay laced with some sprinkling of black humour is near masterpiece levels, it is fresh yet very profound and strong. Production design and makeup are good. Costumes are very good and accurate, a rarity in Tamil movies. Music with its songs are outstanding in some portions.

Yogi Babu as a lead actor, delivers wonderfully well, ably supported by by a huge brigade of junior artistes, led by Sheela Rajkumar.

Overall, Mandela is an brilliant all round film that answers some questions on socio-political spectrum in a mature way. The movie is designed for the entire family, again which is a rarity these days. The raw film is a thorough voice over of the common man and is brutally open and honest to the point of answering questions that have no answers. There is not a single dull moment in the screenplay, Two Thumbs for story, direction and for the satire. Thank you Madonne Ashwin, 8.2 stars out of 10 for team Mandela for a peek into Soorakudi Village.

Every Indian voter must see this movie.

The movie has to be voice dubbed in all our Indian languages and must be released in all states of our country Nothing much to say.

Hatsoff to the entire team of Mandela.

One of the best movies I've ever watched. An astounding movie. Yogi Babu killed it!

This is fantastic movie. It has got plenty of comedies and quite a bit of emotions. It got scenes with extremely realistic incidents which can be easily compared and understand with real world political stands.

There are some super creative makings as well. This movie is well deserved for repeated audience.
