RE:RE:what an actor
by Terence on Apr 10, 2008 12:11 AM

I disagree w/you to a certain extent.
Tamil films have been producing really good films i.e parthiveran,veyil,mozhi,rameswaram, anjathe,chithiram pesuthadi,etc.. ther ar good balance of art and commercial cinema in tamil.

Unfortunatly, tamil audiences have sections which ar mature and do recognize good cinema and those movies do not get huge successes say a rajinikanth, vijay, ajith, or a shankar movie.

Most commercial movies in tamil do not have good stories, only they put in special effects,songs,dance,vulgar, and hero killing villain at the end. Common ones and they ar huge successes depending on a famous actor.

Howvr, ther ar really good movies w/o the usual hip-hop/pop song-dance, and hero vs villain common themes. Those ar the movie you have to watch out for.

But overall, tamil cinema and malayalam cinema is the best out of all the south indian cinema, not to say tht telugu or kannada ar bad. I liked vanaja(telugu) and that was a good movie, but not "masala" movies.

Admit,hindi movies ar worst, no wonder mani ratnam is bad, he better come to south indian cinema. Who would have thought mani ratnam needed mallika sherawat and for what in the movie? That suprised me, especially mani.
