oblackbig ...Well penned and straight from the heart.. Personally i thought this was a great movie after watching it many years later.The simple story is about a reporter, Arjun, who falls for a bank employee, Meena, and their troubles in expressing their love for each other. Each of them is trying to recuperate from the agony of losing their spouses to a terrifying train accident. As circumstances warrant their need for each other, Arjun and Meena try to move away from their love. rhythm is actually a genre of movie which fits in between mainstream and a niche art movie, but tries to be both. The result is an unique effort not seen often in Indian cinemaLow profile, low budget movie with a A list Music composer AR Rahman, A list stars Arjun and Meena including supporting cast, and an A list art-house director Vasanth who was a once a former assistant to India's top director Maniratnam.A. R. Rahman and Vasanth worked together for the first time in this film.Undoubtedly the other big highlight in this movie AR Rahman's music. Its melodious , clear and distinct for such a theme THe movie has a slow, tempo to it but very realistic.Its based on the 5 elements,It draws on various images, music and moods of love to evoke the elements. While the sky is the vast longing for the beloved, water is the beloved woman in different stages of life. Wind is love, blowing you off your feet, while fire is the coming together.The cinematography is excellent when seen in the cinema big screen and the sounds, music invoke immersion in to the story. The plot flows seamlessly scene after scene Something which is rare in today's Indian movies. The cinematography is apt for the movie with lighting set at the right places and scenes.OK, so "Rhythm" is no masterpiece and has quite a few flaws, but it is entertaining and keeps us hanging until the end, on whether the lovers can get together and what more could a viewer want? But "Rhythm" has a lot of good points that override the above thoughts. For example, in the ultimate age of sentiment, this is a basically unsentimental movie.� The characters and scenery are realistically picturised, the acting is almost perfect , and the screenplay is well-written. The story is different,and the beat of the movie is good.the greatest achievement of the movie is that this is a basically emotional movie in the sense that it makes the viewer feel it instead characters of portraying them on screen.And even now whenever I view this movie , it takes me to the past to those great days in my college. I can say Rhythm is realistic that it relates to events in our lives . All of them would have had the same feelings when you hear or see some movies, songs and music , the movie shows realistic things that takes you to the period of your life during all those happened during that time, the movie strangely carries that factor.Watchable for the niche theme , music and fine acting 7/10

subramanian1408 This movie is a classic; one of the best movies you'll ever see. It has a simple and modest storyline, a well scripted screenplay, characters that you can easily relate to, subtle romance, beautiful settings both in Ooty and in Mumbai, a beautiful and haunting background music score that brings out your emotions even if minor flaws in acting fail to do so. Arjun is very mature - one of his best displays of acting, Meena looks stunning as a widow who develops feelings for another widower but hides her feelings fearing the social stigma against widow remarriage, Jothika and Ramesh Arvind play their roles to the T. Lakshmi could not have done more justice to the role of a staunch and orthodox Iyengar mother-in-law who disowns her son and later feels guilt and sympathy towards her daughter-in-law after having lost her son.Easily the most beautiful family entertainer (in tamil) of the past decade!9/10

stylegamer A mature love story that never fails to touch the heart... Rhythm is a movie which has a mature aura, presence and performance by two of the biggest stars in tamil cinema history - Arjun and MeenaThe movie basically is about widowed people meeting each other by chance and forming a relationship in a city. both of whom hide sadness in their pasts and find out that they have more than just this sadness in common.Much of the movie centres around their lives and the people around them. Although the movie did not do well at the box office, years later,It became cult favourite on the internet because the events shown can happen to anyone in real life. . This movie makes the most impact in multiple viewings . Year after i watched the movie a dozen times and it still does not fade away. Each viewing gives a better feel than the first time one watches it and tends to erase any memory of the movie .The movie has a solid script and screenplay for most of the time bordering on narcissism and nostalgia.It never resorts to cheap or forced sentiments at any point and a touch of realism pervades the entire movie.many of the movie events on screen can be related to real life. Looks like director vasanth did his usual experimentation at last minute and stuck to a bound script. Good for him. A must watch movie and excellent contender for Oscars performance especially for the female lead Meena throughout... Although the movie was not a big success at the box office, it wins critical acclaim , much like the stuff one sees in international film festivals. The lead actress Meena , a popular 1990s actress who seems to have recently retired from the scene was exceptionally brilliant performance in each scene. Strangely enough, she looks the best in this movie in terms of makeup ...In my opinion, this movie had her in her best performance to date...Kudos to director vasanthActor Arjun primarily known for action roles has attempted a totally offbeat movie this time and probably the only movie which shows him in a restrained performanceThe other best part of this movie was the music which came as a refreshing break in the year 2000. the music for this film by AR Rahman was one of the finest in his career. Combining new age styles with commercial acoustic , The background score is a clear winner and is used effectively by the director vasanth and AR Rahman to convey the intense emotions on screen. Camera work is slick but restrained for a movie in this time period, with a mixture of ambient lighing , natural landscapes and effects as rain. THough the visuals generally come as pleasing to the eye in the first half hour of the show ( train station, subway and the metro city feel of bangalore), they seem to be marred in the later stages..By then u will not notice too much of that though since the story have gotten quite absorbed into u by thenOverall Rhythm is reminiscent of yesteryear's tamil movies of the 1980s which touched on subjects like marital ,divorce, death and hope. Real life, real people and real events. ALso in the mix are themes like strict culturalism and traditions of India that are still continuing in their modern society.Overall , Rhythm makes yr heart go Rhythmic. Highly recommended
