Uriyadi (2016) Reviews

• Kickass story telling! Thamizh Cinema is changing indeed !!

  naveensankaran182016-06-29

  I wondered why there hasn't been a review yet for this brilliant movie. I was waiting to catch this flick and got a chance yesterday. I have to say it was worth the wait. On seeing Quentin Tarantino's movies, I wondered why there aren't such a kickass story telling in making, in an industry like Thamizh Cinema, which produces most number of movies each year. The answer is Uriyadi. Be it the casting, the BGM, the sub-plots, everything supported the script perfectly. The cinematography and editing made the screenplay even more intense and pacy. The interval block and the climax were the most smartly shot scenes that I have witnessed in recent times. Kudos to the whole cast and crew of the movie! Especially Vijay. This movie will gain cult status for sure. My Rating - 10/10 purely for its brilliance.

• A raw and rustic revenge saga of caste based politics without any cliché

  pantheraleomaximus2016-06-30

  Its definitely not a film for faint hearts but recommended for film enthusiasts. A brutally honest and realistic film which depicts caste based politics in a thriller genre. A bold attempt by the film maker Vijay kumar who directed, produced, acted and scored background music in this film. you will not feel its a film by debutante as the film grips you till the end. the cast include freshers except mime gopi whose an upcoming character artist. mime gopi played his role aptly has a cunning caste party leader The screenplay which is extremely focused on the narration takes you into the film and keeps you guessing till the end. The director has got the best out of everyone. This film is a masterpiece which deserves a place in the history of Tamil cinema.

• Fine example for Youngsters with Talents

  sivakutpp2016-07-23

  Uriyadi is Very Appreciable movie. Director and Actor VijayKumar and friends in movie have delivered a commendable job. Complete movie is mix of thriller, action, entertainment. Screenplay also have supported the story line well. There are many issues happening in real world similar to Story of the Uriyadi as unnoticeable. Uriyadi movie provided a small light on how common people affected due to racism and Politics. Overall Uriyadi movie should be in the low budgeted big hit list.

• Splendid - Movie

  aji4u4ever2016-07-17

  A splendid Crime Thriller. Vijayakumar delivered his best with his debut movie. He handled all the departments with ease.. He was good in his acting, screenplay, execution and even casting. Set in the late 90s, the story revolves around 3 set of characters where they come across. Results in a nail biting thriller which will keep you on the edge of the seats till the end of the movie. The first 10-15 minutes were cleverly used by the director to register the characters then takes you a roller coaster ride. Excellent Background Music by Masala Coffee Band (Sooraj Santhosh - you delivered the best.. Proud of you man)... added the spices in this delicious Thalappakkattu Biriyani. :P. Camera was top notch.. The color tone was too realistic.. I think that might be the main reason, that it gave a feel of the realistic incidents.. This is one of a gem.. Friends.. Go for it.. for its freshness, and raw feel.. 9.4 on 10 Worth - Watching... so sad that i didn't get the chance to watch in cinemas coz.. the movie releases over here are limited...
