Review of Madras Cafe (2013) by Purvesh K — 22 Aug 2013
Madras Cafe has left me SPEECHLES,its one of best thrillers made in India.A spy thriller thats at the level with a film like Argo.Madras Cafe is based on the Rajiv Gandhi assassination the film highlights the civil war in Sri Lanka in the 90s.
The film explains the Tamil conflict and why and how the ex pm was murdered. Madras Cafe is a film with supreme performances, John A gives a career best performance he is just superb in every scene. Nargis Falhri suprises and does a great job.
Siddarth Basu and Dibang also stand tall and suprise because they are newcomers, amazing job by both.But the real hero of Madras Cafe is the script and dir Shoojit Scrar .He after Vicky Donor gives his career best with MC.
Award worthy job!!!Another special mention to the Madras Cafe climax it leaves you in awe,one is left speechless/ in tears and one is frustarted with Indian Gov. But overall Madras Cafe is a realistic film,with no commerical trappings,no songs,etc.
A gritty action thriller,with amazing acting. A perfect film for the class audience around the film, a must watch for all Indians!!!
