Kolai

A fine classy thriller for the ones who believe in good cinema. The pace & writing will make you feel as if you are a part of this investigation. The VFX is of international quality , the color grading is just perfect & BGM syncs well with the mood. The camera work is impeccable. Vijay Antony is different from what he does always. The Director's vision, narrative clarity, shot taking, treatment, detailing is in a class of its own. Every single actor is remarkable and the technicians behind the screen too have excelled. If you love intelligent films and filmmakers, then this is for you. Cheers!

Director Balaji 's Hollywood style of filmmaking is intriguing. It gave a fresh feel to the viewers, also sound , art work & camera work garners a special attention till the very end. If you are a suspense genre fan, this KOLAI is the right choice for a wholesome entertainment. Short runtime is also a added advantage for this whodunit film. Vijay Antony & rest of the cast were seen in kingpin roles. Plot is simple but the way of presentation is classy & keeps us engaged throughout. As few flaws such as moderate second half, lacks twist & turns at regular intervals. Overall, a decent crime thriller loaded with solid technical aspects.

Probably the worst ever Tamil Movie i saw after SURA(Was Much Better) . The CGI was so heavy it just killed the movie spirit along with bad BGM. I wonder how the Cinematographer amd Editor could take and edit such Non sense movie and i still wonder how Director and Producer approved it. The Short Films guys have better Cinematography skills.

Pls do not watch this movie as you will be wasting your precious time. I agree the concept choosen was good,But Cinematography, Editing, BGM and even VJ Anthony acting never made an impact on this movie. I saw IMDB rating as 5.3 just logged in to give this movie a 1 star. (Since no option to have negative rating).

Why do movie makers use so much of CGI these days? I guess if they are making a Prime or Netflix movie they resort to CGI but this was just an overkill and even funny to watch at times. The production value is as worse than a TV serial which these days are made better than movies. For a Vijay Anthony movie this was a major disappointment. This is why Malayalam movies are on top of their game these days, they are as real as they get and the acting is professional and to the point. I wish movie makers focused more on quality than quantity. A very big let down by Vijay Antony. I'm sorry but can't give this movie more than 1.

This movie is such a pleasant surprise, I have no hesitancy in highly recommend it. It combines well developed characters, a great plot, energetic music, high level production, and fun cinematic angles/tricks to make a fabulous "who done it". Even if Indian/foreign movies & subtitles are not your thing, this movie carries a universal appeal that will keep you on the edge of your seat, and have you leaving the theater with a smile. Actually the subtitles make it more fun, and they even throw lots of English lines. It's a surprisingly good-time movie, and you'll be glad that you took a chance on this non-mainstream movie.
