Baasha

Rajini might have done over 100 films prior to this one,but if there's one film which catapulted him to demi god status,it has to be this one.His characterisation as the calm and docile Manickam coupled with the stylish and ruthless don Baasha makes this movie a treat to watch.

The story might not be great,the BG is a rip off from Terminator,the music and songs are cheesy,Nagma is useless,the production value is tacky(OK,granted this was 1995).

But,if there's one person who makes this movie unbelievably watchable it has to be Rajinikanth.This might sound insane,but I have seen this movie more than 30 times(I stopped counting after 30)and each viewing is still enjoyable.I can't say the same for most movies,Rajini's other movies included.There is something special in this film which is hard to explain.

Time for another Baasha session.

This movie was one of the best movie of my life as I have seen it many times and I never got bored. The people who are expecting MASS and COMMERCIAL movies then please don't waste time reading these reviews just go and watch it. The people who are expecting a typical gangster movie like THALAPATHI and NAYAKAN, I would not recommend this film. But for sure you will not get bored watching this film. This film is a gem of TAMIL cinema and a proper COMMERCIAL entertainer.

The movie was excellent with many mass scenes and punch dialogues. The movie was interesting. But some scenes were not logic in the movie. Rajinikanth acted good in the movie and also Raghuvaran is the main highlight in the movie.

I am amazed that not one of Superstar Rajinikanth's millions of fans in the whole wide world has bothered to write a review of what is arguably his greatest hit and possibly his best entertainer. Like legions of his fans, I cannot find a single flaw in this superb flick. It's like a Bond movie; everything's possible because 007 is in charge. Rajini as Manickam and Badsha is simply scintillating; he gives his most impressive Bond-like performance to date. Actually I think Superstar should have quit films and entered politics after Badsha - he would have left in a blaze of glory and cemented his place in film and political history. There are many unforgettable scenes - when he speaks to the college principal for his sister's admission, the fight with Anandaraj ("ULLE PO"), all his scenes with Raghuvaran. I can go on and on. Instead I'll go and watch Badsha again. Maybe you should, if you haven't already.

Baatsha is the greatest movie released in that decade.

People say it is a remake of Hum but Hum could be nowhere compared with this movie this is an awesome one .

Many people have tried to imitate Superstar's style but no one can be a match to that legend.

The movie has too many super scenes which could remain ever green in our memories

The latest trend in movie making is remake another old movie But this movie can never be remade by any body

the greatest movie of Super Star
