Family, Drama (Tamil)
Karthi and Arvind Swami shoulder this spirited bromance drama
Sat, October 5 2024
‘96’ filmmaker C. Prem Kumar gives us a thoughtful character study brought to life by some brilliant performances, and it’s a treat to watch the relationship between Arvind Swami and Karthi’s characters blossom into something gorgeous
While most filmmakers focus on the bigger aspects of their story to substantiate the so-called big-screen experience, C Prem Kumar belongs to a niche group of directors who like to concentrate on the finer, intimate moments of life. Probably because of his time spent behind the viewfinder as a cinematographer, Prem’s scenes look like animated still photographs, and just like his directorial debut 96, his sophomore outing Meiyazhagan is a series of moments in motion.

Hitler
Action, Drama (Tamil)
Vijay Antony’s revenge drama is outdated and ordinary
Sat, October 5 2024
The haphazardly-written ‘Hitler’ lacks the gripping social narrative or the emotional beats of director Dana SA’s previous films, and ends up as an underwhelming vigilante saga
Vijay Antony is on a spree with his recent films. While his contemporaries rarely churn out a couple of releases each year, the music director-turned-actor starred in four films last year and his latest release Hitler marks his third outing of 2024. But given how almost all of them turned out to be underwhelming, it feels like he’s shooting for quantity over quality, and Hitler, unfortunately, is the latest addition to that list.
