Reviews
Majorthebys Charming and brutal
Chirphymium It's entirely possible that sending the audience out feeling lousy was intentional
Aneesa Wardle The story, direction, characters, and writing/dialogue is akin to taking a tranquilizer shot to the neck, but everything else was so well done.
Mandeep Tyson The acting in this movie is really good.
Sureeya Animato This Muran (2011) Indian Movie is Copy cat of Alfred Hitchcock's "Strangers on a Train (1951)" movie.It's very pathetic that without remake rights they copied the movie.story is same but , very slight difference in screenplay. Try to make own movie director Rajan Madhav. this is not a good trend to follow. if movie like this from your own ,then it has all reason to praise it.but it's a pure and pure copy cat. don't say it's an inspiration. inspiration differs from copy cat.If want to make this concept in to different or advance one ,you can do it by buying rights from the respective authority.with proper rights it's a Remake. but without a proper rights, it's a pure copy cat.
rahini ganpat Muran is an unique movie with a new subject for the Tamil audience. the intriguing trailer increased the expectations about this movie and to my surprise the movie was up to the expectations even the unexpected expectations. because am always critical while watching regional movies.. this movie has satisfied even the intellectual viewers along with entertaining capabilities... there is some directorial magic that would bind the audience to sit and watch without questioning. which wont happen in many movies which are not commercial as well as with challenging story line. there were many scenes in the movie which are unique and novel. the movie speaks the director's confidence, clear mindedness in his way of telling the story to audience... unlike many commercial directors who put half of their faith on some over rated actors this director definitely has his own commanding style which should be welcomed and appreciated. Cheran has powerfully underplayed his role which is incredible. he has already proved that he is a finest actor in many of his past movies. he literally lives in every character he plays. in this movie i loved the scene where he gets in to a club to kill Prasanna's father. the sneaky chasing is an awesome performance.(back ground music rocks in such scenes) couldn't think of any other actor to fit in that role. the songs were unnecessary for this movie makes it drag. But back ground music is fantastic and has played an important role in every particular scenes. The friendly, boy next door, one in the family, Prasanna is now a cute, mysterious, attractive, psycho urban bloke who has an aura and charm. thats what he is in this movie and he represented all that i mentioned through his acting, style,carrying himself and expressions. Nikita has played well to the extent that i think that she played her original character..well joke apart she has done good acting. Haripriya looks like any other commercial heroine with well ironed hair in every scene..needs better acting and language skills.. i don't have complaints about the climax. the guy himself accepts the death with smiling face like he has enjoyed the thrills in life and death comes only a part of the game is justified and Cheran sign off with guilt. perfect ending.
aishsep-10 Muran--> a good thriller after a long time..First credits to Rajjan who has shown good deal of maturity in his debut movie as a director. Prasanna has played his role extremely well, standing out from his usual lover boy, boy next door roles. His looks are too eye catchy and he sure hasn't disappointed his female fans ;) The AUDI that runs on the Bangalore highway is AWESOME..Cheran has proved he is not only good at narrating autobiography but he can also think and execute smart plans.Songs don't fit in anywhere so Sajjan has to wait for his break.Though the story starts off around the Lavanya character played by Haripriya, poor girl she is left hanging in the middle post climax.Ice Cream Factors: *Prasanna's stylish Looks *Neatly maintained pace *Good story LineLemon Factors : *Songs in unnecessary place *Little predictable climax.In Short MURAN--> not disappointing at all...Sure this would open new doors for Prasanna..Good work Rajjan & the entire team..U deserve a round of applause!
supertram100 A musician took a lift from a businessman on a highway and they are heading to the same destination.they share their own lives and the problem they had.the businessman comes up with a deal to solve each others problem but things going out of musician's way and how he comes over the businessman is the story... It may be a loosely based on an English movie but who care its one of the rare attempts in Tamil.The movie is well taken and actors did their job...you may find the movie bore at some stages and the story should have been concentrated well. The traveling sequences and the murder plans are good Overall its a good one...you will neither enjoy nor hate it....
