Review of Mirchi

Mirchi (2013)
8/10
A decent movie, quite an old storyline with some twists

Warning: Spoilers
I would give a 7.5. It is a good movie for a first time director. It certainly does have some action sequences that go overboard and some ridiculous assumptions, but I would say as a movie lover there is yet to be a perfect movie, so some of the things are acceptable. Most movies that have an illustrious star cast end up being total bummers.

The characters are pretty well utilized except some. In a country where people drool over ridiculous movies like Chennai Express, this movie even though has a little common script has done a good job.

Prabhas has done a pretty decent job. I feel Anushka was wasted in the movie and so has Nadhiya & Sathyaraj who in my opinion, being a Tamilian, are brilliant actors.

I think if the movie needs to be branded a family entertainer, a lot of gore needs to be trashed. Explicit bloody scenes chase away families and retain only the men of a house. Brahmanandam offers a little comedy, but I think he's been under utilized to some extent as well. Overall a decent movie, one time watch. Music needs to improve couple of notches.
