My brother-in-law arranged for us (my sister, he, his brother and myself) to go for a latest Tamil movie – Boys. Though I was in Madras for 4 years before going to Belgium, I never went to a theater to watch a movie. So I was little bit excited how it is going to be. Also, I heard lots of good reviews about the movie itself. It was a night show starting at 21h45 and ending at around 01h00.

There were some ads in the begining. What I didnt know (and came to know) was that even ads have to go via the censor board. Well after few ads, it was time for Boys.
It is a story of 5 college going guys and one girl. How they defy tradition and suffer for it. As in all movies, they succeed in the end. There is love, dance, songs and all that rightly belongs to a Tamil movie. But the direction is not. This is not a typical Tamil movie. There is not one piece in the movie (songs, dances, dialogues) that is out of the main thread. You dont feel bored. There is nothing illusionary in the movie. The story, dialogues all seems so real to you. You can identify with the characters and the plot. In short, it is well done. Hope there will be more creativity in Tamil movies like this one.
