Jimmy Cage Jimmy Cage Movie Reviews (YouTube) AADUKALAM gives us a raw and immersive taste of its world and characters, to then turn into a tragic, intense, modern Shakespearean tale in the second half. Rated: 7/10 Feb 27, 2022 Full Review J Hurtado ScreenAnarchy I can now say, with authority, that Aadukalam is the real deal. Nov 6, 2017 Full Review Read all reviews

Rated 4 out of 5 stars 02/01/23 Full Review Audience Member Memorable songs and powerful betrayal drama. Rated 4 out of 5 stars 01/16/23 Full Review Audience Member Vetrimaaran always has a fine touch in his screenplay but in this movie actual smash it and the fight scene are realistic Rated 4 out of 5 stars 02/01/23 Full Review Audience Member -AAduKalam- Written& Directed by Vettrimaaran 'an associate of Balu Mahendra... has once again proved his excellence in the field of Cinema.. Like his first venture Pollaadavan.. This film starts with the similar screenplay "I can say he is the JR.Christopher Nolan of Tamizh Nadu. His packaging style something unique" As for as the film is concerned ,,the title 'Aadukalam' itself says every thing.. but 'yes its about the backdrop of it.. But the awesome news is he has delivered a decent message in this genre of film.. I love the director for his idea that "entertainment" alone is not the product of filmmaking& he proved this by delivering 'stuffs' to the audience he'd prefer.. Though the film has some Casting * Characterization needs special mention as they don't contradict themselves during the course of the movie. * Dhanush has done a fabulous job in the lines of 'pudhupettai' & offcourse 'pollaadavan'.. He has vastly improved in terms of expressions and he has merged himself in his character... "I can say he is the Indian BruceLee * Kishore deserves a special mention.. & he seems to be totally different in this film.... -->Technical Excellence * Velraj is just rocking,, behind the lens. He has improved a lot from his prev work in pollaadavan.. * G.V.Prakash deserves a special mention. Songs do have a great feel // but he has once again copied like Pollaadavan &his prev ventures... This time he has copied from James Roy Horner's.. TROY bgm... He is an 'ar_eh_le' i think... as he cant even work sincerely for this filmmaker..,,atleast after seeing the making of the film. -BottomLine- An unexpected good film under SunPictures... But the bad news is that this film wont work on the masses... "A must go film for its awesome dialogue delivery throughout the movie.// " Rated 4.5 out of 5 stars 02/02/23 Full Review Audience Member One of fine movie to watch for plot driven, rural back-drop films, has great performances n interestingly funny scenes,...the lead actor is the trump card to live himself into the character. Also the VFX is darn good. Kudos to the Director for bringing an ACE!! Rated 4 out of 5 stars 01/25/23 Full Review Read all reviews
