Madras

Engaging from start to end. Very realistic and has some great acting. The wall itself feels like a character in the movie and that's a big win.

A wall is a source of discontent between two political rivals. Kaali and his friend Anbu, who is a party worker, get embroiled in this clash.

Director: Pa. Ranjith Stars: Karthi, Catherine Tresa, Kalaiyarasan | See full cast and crew »

The film encompasses elements like politics, drama, friendship, romance, betrayal, revenge and pride, and is a gripping affair all the way, with just a few minor breathers in the second half when the fare becomes predictable. The first half sets the benchmark pretty high with the tense, action-packed interval segment being among the best this year. Editor Praveen deserves credit for making the first half as taut as it is. Karthi has to be appreciated for accepting this script where he is just a part and not the pivot. This is easily one of his best and his noted caliber as a versatile performer comes to the fore again. In the raw fist cuffs and brawls, Karthi's intensity, punches and slaps appear truly real. Credit to the stunt choreographers too. Madras is definitely high on action!

Watched 'Madras' movie recently. You can see the teamwork on each and every frame. They have shown the life of the people as it is in the real life and not making compromises for the cinematic elements. Karthi should be really appreciated for giving scope to the other character 'Anbu' which was the main role in the first half of the movie. And the characterization of the other actors in the movie was perfect. The guy who did the Johnny character was simply superb. Heroine did her part well, except in some parts she did not blend well into the people shown in that area. That's mainly because of her makeup in some sequences.The background score by Santhosh Narayanan was simply superb.He always stays away from the limelight but his music speaks a lot in the movie.

Overall this movie is a very good entertainer and thoroughly gripping.You name it whether it is cinematography, background score, casting, fight sequence , they did very well in all the departments.

Go for it. Don't miss this one!!!

This North Madras movie is a delight to hear and all the actors and others artists who have contributed to this effect, deserve a pat.

Madras, though on the longer side and venturing into predictable territory beyond a point, stands out for the presentation, the characterizations, the performances and for the unflinching direction efforts of Ranjith.

The movie does tries to preach, but thankfully doesn't stray too much. A film of such genre, with a rag-tag cast usually falls in the hands of a new comer or a struggling actor. So, though it's surprising to see actors like him do it, it feels good to know that they aren't afraid to experiment.

Madras is the right blend of raw action and commercial entertainment with a screenplay that will keep you hooked. Santhosh's soulful music and Karthi's brilliant performance, are other reasons this movie is a must watch.
