Honestly, I liked the movie 12B. I think it is a sweet movie. The plot is rather well-thought and I do not see why one cannot understand the film.

Unfortunately, this film did not receive well. What are your views on it?

  Unmai need I explain , no dodgy moustache, no fight scenes where only the hero knock out 20 men with one punch.
  
  I enjoyed the movie- really.The film had a very youthful outlook, definately would'nt done well in rural areas, the hero was too fair and had dress sense.
  
  The film was a remake of Sliding doors. I liked it perhaps I am being biased becos my sound judgement is being clouded by the new guy on the block Shaam

  The problem with 12B is delusions of grandeur. Simple. These guys had this "look at us we are making a cool movie" attitude. And that sucks. Lifting from Kieslowski's Decalogue series is fine, but hey, why do they have to deliberately mess up the plot? Do they think that by confusing the layman, they are elevated to an intelligent status? This is one of those new-age Tamil movies, where heros and heroines sport Guccis and Versaces, but converse in accented Tamil about 'kaathal'! Hypocrisy with a capital H!

  What went wrong?. Well! the Tamil director could not understand the English movie "Sliding door" So one fine day, he thought he should do a service to Tamil people by making them understand the original movie correctly, the result--"12B". You know what the talk is in Kodambakkam?. "The director might have missed a hit in 12B, but he will never fail in life" :-).

  A perfect movie. I couldn't understand the audience's(not all) poor mentality. Shaam is too handsome and, two perfect on screen pairs....
  Great comedy by Vivek and co.....And great music by Harris. Above all great plot, never mind whether or not its origin is English. The way he presented everything is simply superb. Hats off to Jeeva the director.
  I am waiting for that teams next release "Ullam ketkuthe more" (earlier the title was "Pepsi").
