#5. Blood Money
Blood Money is the journey of a new journalist who wishes to stop the hanging of two Tamil people in Kuwait through her investigative reporting. But as she keeps nearing the deadline, many doubts and challenges confront her. Are they really innocent? Why have the authorities not canceled the death sentence even after ‘Blood Money’ was paid to the victim’s family in Sri Lanka?
#4. Vinodhaya Sitham
Vinodhaya Sitham is a different and a brave effort by Samudrakani. The general issue with such movies with a message is, they either tend to be preachy or be boring. This movie is neither.
Thambi Ramaiah dies in a car accident. He meets God and requests him time to set things right, and this once, God gives him 3 months. How much the main character changes in these three months, and how he realizes that he is *has never been* the center of the universe family and work! An excellent movie for everyone overestimating their role in life.
#3. Malaysia to Amnesia
Malaysia to Amnesia is a fun movie about a man who suddenly loses his memory. I can’t say more as it will reveal the plot, but the way the events have been shown is very interesting. The mama character played by MS Bhaskar is the main star of the movie with his tremendous performance. If this role was not played to perfection, the entire movie could have fallen flat. Great job and a fun movie to relax during the weekend.
#2. Maragadha Naanayam
Maragadha Naanayam is a paranormal Tamil movie mixed with some humour. I liked the ensemble of characters assembled for this movie – most played their parts quite well. The movie moves fast, with interesting twists every now and then. The paranormal part is not very frightening, but as an entertaining movie, this is good.
#1. Dikkiloona
When Santhanam and Yogi Babu are present in a movie, one can obviously expect humor. But in this movie, there is also a good message. Combine it with time travel fantasy, this movie is a thorough entertainer.
The time travel part is a bit confusing at times, but the overall message and the pace of the movie are really good. People who believe in the philosophy, “Ikkaraikku akkarai pacchai” or there is better life only if we had done one thing differently, should watch this movie.
