Pongal releases this month

Welcome back to one of the longest weekend we will have for some time now. More than the festivities, it’s the holidays that tag along that are worth waiting for. It is always a pleasure to have a festival on a weekday and when the festival is Pongal, it’s double the happiness as it means off from work for three to four days.Here, we are looking at a possibility of a 6 to 7 daylong weekend. But unfortunately the Tamil releases are not going to capitalize on the long weekend and will release only on the 15th of January. But two movies are ready to grab the monster weekend. Lets analyze all the 9 movies that are going to release in this long weekend.

  • Pazhani
Why you should see it? – It looks like a refreshing change from the routine masala movies.
Why you shouldn’t? - New director with little known actors, when was the last time such a movie became a hit?

  • Pidichirukku

  • Vazhthukal
Why you should see it? – After a long time we will see a calm and romantic Madhavan. Do girls need any other reason?
Why you shouldn’t? - Because the movie has little to offer for the people who are expecting an action movie.
  • Indralogathil Na. Azhagappan
Why you should see it? – Vadivel, Vadivel and Vadivel
Why you shouldn’t? - Because you like only subtle and natural comedy

  • Across the Universe
Why you should see it? – It’s a musical, directed by Julie Taymour, it should be good.
Why you shouldn’t? - Indians hate Hollywood musical as much as Westerner’s hate our dance and song routine.

  • Kaalai
Why you should see it? – Simbu is back after a hiatus and is all set to rock with the guy who gave us Thimiru.
Why you shouldn’t? - People expecting a solid and creative script will sure be disappointed.

  • Bheema
Why you should see it? – Vikram and Trisha hit combo, Lingusamy, Harris Jeyaraj, Prakash Raj, do u need anymore reasons?
Why you shouldn’t? - While seeing the trailer it had a small resemblance to Sarathkumar’s Vedan. Don’t tell me, Vikram is a cop.

  • Halla bol
Why you should see it? – It’s a complete family entertainer.
Why you shouldn’t? - No glamour and no violence? Who will go for such a movie?
