When a movie has you begging for it to end not even half way through it's pure crap. We've all seen this movie and this characters millions of times, nothing new in it. Don't waste your time.

By the time the dramatic fireworks start popping off, each one feels earned.

One of the most extraordinary films you will see this year. Take that as you want.

It's a good bad... and worth a popcorn matinée. While it's easy to lament what could have been...

Let me start by saying I'm really surprised that there are not many on on IMDb has yet reviewed this cult favourite and famous movie . Minnale was one of the most successful films in tamil in its year of releaseThe story was not something new in western cinema but definitely new to Indian cinema.Loving a engaged girl was addressed in the film even before in Titanic.The director had included the element of impersonation.The crew did their work in a perfect manner.The visuals and the BGM were of top quality.A DAY IN 2001...There was a lot of hype surrounding the release of Minnale. The music had indeed struck lightning with everyone.And when the film was finally released for the valentine Day, The group of us decided to hit the theatres.The story of Minnale is an exercise in creativity when compared to most mainstream Indian movies.The director of this movie is the now successful director Gautham, for whom this was a debut movie. The music director is Harris Jeyaraj, who too made his debut. He used to be(I believe he still is) AR Rahman's assistant.But Harris caught me with surprise.One after another, every song in the album was attractive.The freshness and richness in the music reminded me of A.R.Rahman, in his early stages.Harris had a wonderful mix of music, but to call it a trend setter is an overstatement according to me. Nevertheless I was struck with the music, that my cerebrum automatically started collecting information regarding the film.People said that HJ had copied some of ARR's tunes, but whether or not that's true, a man has to be credited for giving excellent music, and Harris Jeyaraj deserves every bit of praise for that.Harris delivered a fresh new sound which appealed to the masses and classes alike.''vaseegara'' went on to become one of the so called millennium hits.Watchable once and maybe a cult favorite for the truly sentimental

Gautham's first movie is a story between a girl who is engaged and a man who falls in love with her.The hero falls for a girl.He comes to know that she is already engaged.So he pretends to be her fiancé and she also starts liking him thinking to be her fiancé.She comes to know the truth -- and what happens next?--------Guyz watch out for the songs, it'll surely make you dance to its tunes (hatz off to Harris)-----You'll surely feel the love in most of the scenes.--If you love someone -- don't miss this movie.

The hero who is allergic to girls during the first few scenes.On a rainy night he sees a girl dancing in the rain and he sees her face when lightning strikes(minnal in tamil and hence the name). He falls in love with her but he finds out that she is engaged to someone else and he pretends as her fiancée and makes her fall in love with him.She finds out eventually and now has to choose between the two.My favorite tamil movie and all the songs are great.The song vaseegara is excellent with the vocals.I would recommend this movie for people in their teens.
