Me and Raavanan !!!!

After the hype created around raavanan and and the one I created by myself to see the movie without hearin any kinda non sense from any anti social elements... I watched the movie yesterday... The list includes my 2 friends and my cousin who i turned deaf ears to this past few days.. Turnin deaf ears even meant accusing them to my mom..

So finally about the movie which has been having a mixed response.. It was great.. or let me put it this way.. I Liked it !! Generally for the past week there have jus been more criticisms, but i don see anythin to be criticized in the movie.. You sit at a movie theatre and you have one of the most breathtaking views of the forests and the rain and hear some real good music, see amazing actors transforming as characters, and a great experience.. What lacks here?? It is a real down to down simple storyline known by all the Hindus.. Even the characters portrayed have shades of the epic characters.. And I found it ta be a great modern day adaptation..

The positives of the movie was the choice of cast, camera work, music, acting, and of course the mani ratnam banner... Vikram is awesomeness personified, Aishwarya - adorable, Prithvi - Neat, Karthik-as usual - leaves a mark, and others have done a great job too..

Still Mani Ratnam cant escape criticism... There were a lot of loose ends in the movie.. Towards the end a few characters were jus neglected and suddenly their characters stopped appearing.. And the editing I would call it different when compared to other movies.. There are people actually pointing out mistakes in editing but i think it pretty well suited the tempo of the movie..

Final Verdict - I would surely suggest this movie for hard core Mani fans and even people who like ta see movies with class unlike mass... U d surely Like it !!! But if u have made up ur mind to go and criticize, save the money and go for a ur type movie rather than irritating others !!!

Actually this final verdict is so harsh, cause i had people who don even watch enough number of movies to even talk about it.. When you don like somethin, you don like it... The person has ta keep it to themselves rather than pushin the idea to other people and make them change their perceptions..

After the movie, me and one o my best buddy had time out tagether at Express Avenue.. The new mall near the Royapettah Clock tower.. DO pay a visit there.. Its worth it !!

And ya, I am jus half way developung soemthin bout a bro-sis relationship.. Will publish it once done !!! Until then.. Veera veera veera

Cheers

I think it all depends on one's expectations. Some people go to movie to hear good music and see excellent camera work.
Some go for the story and some just for the actors.
Whether one is satisfied or disappointed depends on each and every individual..
