Aadhavan - mediocrity at its best
- Easily the worst movie that I have ever seen, which featured either Surya or KSR
- Seriously, can't understand why an actor who has tried to do something different, signs to do a movie like this.
- Makes you think you are better off watching a Vijay movie, given the fact that one is guaranteed to see some genuine & good looking dance movements that only he can do
- Vadivelu's comedy, to an extent, was the sole saving grace of the movie. But there is only so much he can do, given the movie's mind-numbingly stupid screenplay
- Surya's performance, for all the effort he has seemingly put in, falls flat and after a point, he becomes just unwatchable.
- And Surya can now officially be called Salman Khan of Tamil cinema, as his directors come up with situations just to show off his well-toned body
- We all know that the standard of Tamil cinema's special effects & graphics is just appalling but Aadhavan has done the impossible of pulling it down one notch further below.
- The sheer stupidity of the underlying setup of the movie is mind boggling. Imagine this - a judge is about to submit a crucial report in 10 days but he has come to Kolkota with (literally) a truck load of family because they are on vacation and he wants to spend time with them too. What a boat load of crap?!
- The tortured logic that goes behind the 'Vaaraayo vaaraayo' song will even give the worst director of Tamil cinema, P. Vasu a run for his money.
- Saroja Devi is irritatingly bad and gets on your nerves, right from the get-go. Reminded me of MSV's 'cameo' roles in Kaadhala Kaadhala & Kaadhal Mannan.
- Harris Jeyaraj needs to do something. I mean, how long is he planning to blurt out such songs that seem to have the same age-old template? And what was that English song in the background score all about?
- We all have seen that even the best of directors age not so very aesthetically. And KSR, while cannot even be remotely called great, was a good director who could churn out watchable entertaining masalas in his sleep. But I think the day has come up for him to do some introspection and come up with a watchable movie, even if it takes a while longer for the movie to be made.

Good post.
Filby !!! Can't agree with you more ...This is one of the worst movies I have ever seen.
Enne Filby, no post on Thalaivar's B'day???
Filbert,
The moment I heard that Rameshkhanna had done the screenplay, I knew that the movie would be a crap. KSR should get a good script or he should take care of the script.

Your blog keeps getting better and better! Your older articles are not as good as newer ones you have a lot more creativity and originality now keep it up!
Filbert, clearly you dont know how to review a movie. this is not the way to criticize a movie.
Why dont you learn from Balaji of how to do so, balaji does point the waekness & the good ones (even though if its the worst movie ever) honestly ive stopped visiting your page every week for more than one year as you remind me of Raja sen of rediff.com.
One Touch,
First up, this is not a review. It has been a long time since I have written a proper review for a movie. These are just random thoughts I had after watching 'Aadhavan'. Honestly, this movie did not even have any genuinely interesting moments and the reason why I was so disappointed with this movie is that I did not see a single reason as to why someone like Surya should do a movie like this.
why r u so jealous abt A.R. Rahman. still not a single word of appreciation abt his oscar award. ive seen a zillion words abt the average composition abt Yuvan Shankar Raja. Yuvan cant even win a film fare award, this could be why u r jealous. I cant find whats so special abt Yuvan when u hav the best. this is the reason why i hardly visit ur site. earlier i use to visit once a week. review or random thoughts try to balance the plus & minus points. every time when i see a movie review or a preview of Balaji, im so excited even though if its a useless movies. U better learn.
