It’s an especially fun movie from a director and cast who are clearly having a good time allowing themselves to let loose.

The movie rhythm is till one of the top 10 movies in the Tamil cinema History. The story line of the movie was simply superb.I think this was the best movie of there life time for who acting in This movie like arjun,meena & ramesh arvind.The expression of the actors is really great for example the final Scene arjune, meena,child & laxmi came together to arjun apartment and Nagesh saw this who waked from sleep the face expression of him says He was a greatest actor.U want see 4 fight scene,4 songs,some cheap punch dialog this movie Definitely not for u.This movie contain feelings the real feelings of love & emotion.the Connection between the characters was not like movie goes like a real Life of some.If i talk about the movie this page should not enough for me.U must see the movie at least one time.

We like so many films. But we like to watch only a few films any number of times. For me, Rhythm is one such film.This is definitely Director Vasanth's best film.The performance of all the actors were good. This film is the best film of Arjun Sarja as well as Meena. The small boy has done his role superbly. Nagesh's role and Lakshmi's role impressed me.Visual Effects could have been better, but that doesn't really matter.The music by A. R. Rahman was awesome. Camera by P. S. Vinod was very good.The film has all the contents to satisfy the audience.A must watch for all.

...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

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
