I am previleged to give my full pp review here.Should only other websites cast reviews,the hub too would.Any mods. viewing this post can suggest a seperate thread for reviews alone,plz.
alright here's what i opine:

An anti-hero tale.The film starts like several 70s crime novels.But,the song however(enga area...)is irrelevant&of illogic for schoolboys.Pitiably,he then becomes a dropout and begs.I still don't know why +2 student is being called kokki and all.Queerly he enfixes himself in an lsd group&then the baseline comes to play-THE SURVIVAL OF THE FITTEST.Selva has done a lot of work on titbits-the splendid metaphoring of showing the sun in comparison:in the clouds,in ditches during downfall& rising,scorching during his consolidation.Even the newspapers concept was fairAlso sneha,the gangsters,politicians have done a decent job.Dialogue by balakumaran is in one word marvellous.perhaps it's why at instances reminds nayagan,baatsha,etc.The fim has bankrupcy in story,editing.Who is kolabaskar?He should have surely yawned for about half hour after the interval.Howsoever the slapping feature is reality&violence.Via media sex has been handled almost in a brutal course.Especially in scenes of sneha at mahabalipuram,the sonia/dhanush first night etc. show the lady screaming in pain, and the like which made the father nearly close his daughter's eyes!The moving vids at the papers resembled harry potter.The blood nearly reddened and flooded the theatre-probably it was big budget due to paint.Though flawful the climax and minute details make the feel of sheer truth blowing,music is handled exquisitely due to the gene of ysr.Sonia falls or fails.some scenes should have been carved-the bombing of dhanush's residence,the video of the politician's daughter etc.I couldn't realise the idea behind the likes of interrupting scenes like poor handycameramen would have helped.Camera-top class,nutshelling.To me if this film would have been 150 minutes
it would have been like a fitting door to a bungalow,now it is oversize in every detail.Songs are very good except for the fact that oru naalil could have been included anyway cutting the unwanted bloody,i meant bloodshed scenes.(if this would have been played by ajith before dheena or the kamal of sikappu rojakkal,it would have been another nayagan atleat a cheaper nayagan-this is my own statement)Thus, A GOOD BUT NOT A BETTER SELVA FILM(UNSATISFACTORY, KK/7G)Fit,but we can't survive 3.15 hrs.

marks:49/100,especially attributing to the climax.

VENKIRAJA,

You'll get better response if you post under the relevant movie thread, like how Prabhu Ram has done.

thalai nagaram was very very gripping..

if there were a star value for the film.. it would have been a bigger HIT.
quit interesting and racy screenplay

GALLATTA

The expert storyteller and director Bhagyaraj, has had quite an interesting trip down the movie lane, from being assistant director, to director and then actor. This man who has managed to weave magic on the big screen with his smart screenplay, strong storylines and punch dialogues, is back with a bang! He has flicked his magic wand once again, for the movie Parijatham in which he has introduced his own daughter Saranya as the heroine.

The story is so intricately woven with a healthy mix of comedy, sentiments and seriousness. We can see Bhagyaraj�s expert handiwork in the screenplay throughout the movie and especially in the climax. Saranya�s acting is so good, that Bhagyaraj is definitely one proud and happy father!

The hero of the movie Malayalam actor Prithviraj has impresses us once again with after his debut into Tamil cinema as a villain in the movie Kanaa Kanden.

Parijatham is a beautiful blend of love, suspense, comedy and sentiments backed by a strong storyline. It tells the story of Sumathi (Saranya) who is the daughter of a millionaire merchant called Textile Subramaniam (Sarath Babu). Due to unforeseen circumstances the millionaire loses all his fortune. Sumathi doesn�t lose heart and takes up a job working for Seetha in her house. Kind-hearted Seetha develops a liking for Sumathi, and is terribly impressed with her character, especially after she realizes one day that Sumathi has the gift of penning stories.

She urges Sumathi to narrate one of her stories to her. As Sumathi keeps telling Seetha her story, Seetha pictures her son Surendar (Prithviraj) and Sumathi as the hero and heroine in her mind�s eye. The only part of the story Seetha doesn�t like is the end in which the hero and heroine part. At one point she says� I can�t accept the parting of my son and you.�

Seetha plans to get Sumathi and her son married when Surendar and his father are away from home. She tells her son that she has found the right girl for him. But the story takes a sudden turn, and tragedy strikes. Before Surendar returns Seetha passes away without telling him who the girl is.

The next half of the movie takes many interesting twists and turns, with Surendar searching for the girl his mother wanted him to marry and Bhagyaraj trying to bring the two together.

One scene is especially commendable, when Prithvi asks Saranya if she knows who the girl is. The expressions and maturity Saranya displays in her acting makes us wonder if this really is her first movie! She handles tough scenes with such ease and grace that she proves that she is no lesser than her father as far as acting goes. Saranya leaves a lasting impression behind at the end of the movie.

Prithiviraj has tried his hand at comedy and performed well at it in the first half of the movie. In the second half his search for the girl chosen by his mother is very realistic. Does Prithvi find the girl his mother wanted him to marry? What more lies in store for them?

Bhagyaraj has given a climax with the appropriate mixture of comedy and seriousness.

The song �Unnai Kandaenae...� makes the audience to keep humming the song long after the movie. Click here to listen to the tunes of Parijatham.

Parijatham is the tree in Indra�s heaven perfuming the world with its blossoms. This movie has also been rightly named as it�s a movie-goer�s delight to watch and enjoy! Hope Parijatham keeps spreading its sweet fragrance for a long time.
i've not seen the movie,if anyone has plz comment.

however the music+camera in the song unnai kandene was very stylish.
