CE Year in Review: The Unsung Tamil Films of 2019

Team CE
National Award-winning film To Let won accolades all over the world, and was a riveting social commentary told in a way that didn't alienate the audience.
Kathir's Sathru showed us that cops are not always superheroes. The most outstanding aspect of Naveen Nanjundan’s debut directorial is the presence of a strong no-nonsense villain.
We don’t often see urban romantic films make waves at the BO. One such film was July Kaatril. It had good music, good performances, sharp dialogues, and a pragmatic portrayal of urban relationships.
What if the film only has a bone of a story? What if it feels simply as a stitching together of scenes, embroidered with a lot of love. Nedunalvaadai reminded us that nostalgia is a lovely thing.
Don't we all love hearing stories that begin with 'Once upon a time' and end with 'happily ever after'? More filmmakers need the confidence of narrating a story like Mehendi Circus without frills.
A film's ability or the lack of it to pull the rug right from under the audience's feet determines the efficacy of a thriller. And... it is Arulnidhi in K-13. He hasn't gone wrong, yet.
Unlike in K-13, here, it is the destination here that completely outweighs the haphazard journey. And 7 And... the film deserves a dekko just to see how good Regina can be in a well-written role.
Suttu Pidikka Utharavu had almost everything going against it, despite a taut screenplay. Then, comes the mother of all twists. Probably one of the best twists of 2019.
Director Suseenthiran revels in making sports films about underdogs. His Kennedy Club, despite all the preachiness, is the best sports-based film of the year.
While Bakrid serves as a commentary about love for animals, it thankfully refrains from being too preachy about it. Also, it must be said that Vikranth deserved more love this year.
