Bougainvillea, directed by Amal Neerad, showcases a gripping narrative that keeps viewers engaged despite its predictable plot. The film follows Reethu (Jyothirmayi), who struggles with amnesia after a traumatic accident, and her husband Royce (Kunchacko Boban) as they navigate chaos following mysterious disappearances. Jyothirmayi delivers a standout performance, seamlessly returning to the screen after a decade, while Boban’s portrayal is commendable. Fahadh Faasil’s role, though less demanding, adds depth. Neerad’s signature style shines through in the film’s cinematography and suspenseful atmosphere, making it a fantastic offering from the entire team

Vaazhai, directed by Mari Selvaraj, is a touching story about childhood and the challenges kids face in society. Selvaraj has a unique vision that really shines through in this film. He connects with the audience beautifully, making us feel the struggles and hopes of the young protagonist. The way he portrays everyday moments makes them feel powerful and relatable. With its heartfelt storytelling, Vaazhai stands out as a remarkable film that leaves a lasting impression. Selvaraj proves once again that he is a talented director who knows how to engage his audience.

Vettaiyan: A Star-Studded Disappointment Vettaiyan, directed by TJ Gnanavel, struggles to deliver a compelling narrative despite the star power of Rajinikanth and Amitabh Bachchan. While the first half is decent, the second half feels disjointed and predictable, lacking the emotional depth seen in Gnanavel’s previous work, Jai Bhim. The film attempts to address serious themes like encounter killings and educational inequities but fails to effectively balance these with Rajinikanth’s iconic style. The extensive cast, including Fahadh Faasil, seems underutilized. Overall, it offers an average experience that doesn’t fully resonate with audiences or honour its talented director.

A Disappointing Experience with GOAT!! While director Venkat Prabhu’s vision in GOAT is commendable, the execution falters significantly. The film features Thalapathy Vijay in dual roles, which, rather than enhancing the narrative, creates a confusing dynamic between the hero and anti-hero. This choice detracts from the viewing experience, making it challenging to invest in either character fully. The lengthy runtime of over three hours only exacerbates this issue, leading to a tedious watch despite some engaging moments. Ultimately, the ambitious concept falls flat due to its execution flaws!

"Lubber Pandhu" is an engaging Tamil sports drama that skillfully blends cricket with social commentary. Directed by Tamizharasan Pachamuthu, it follows the intense rivalry between two cricketers while tackling issues of caste discrimination. The film shines with strong character development and authentic emotions, particularly in its portrayal of female roles. With impressive cinematography and a compelling score, "Lubber Pandhu" leaves a lasting impact, making it both entertaining and thought-provoking.
