Raavan (2010)

The Good (Raavan), The Bad (Rajneeti) and The Ugle (Kites)...

[18 June 2010]

I was waiting for these three movies for more than one year. Kites was outside the boundary of discussion. For Rajneeti, so many scope was available for improvement, even in my perception there was no innovation or creativity in Rajneeti. After double disappointment my hope was very high with Raavan, which is bad, even in case of above average movie you'd feel that movie was not good or bad. But Raavan fulfill all of my hopes and I'm writing this review with a positive mood. Everything in movie is great i.e. acting, music, background score, cinematography everything but the best part of the movie is creativity and deep thinking in story. In the first part you'll enjoy the beautiful jungle scenes and rain but thinking and creativity comes in the second half of the movie, even in the end. If you have some deep knowledge of Ramayana then you'll enjoy this movie at its best. My recommendation is, just go to the movie. This is kind of movie which you can't miss. And don't forget to discuss the concept of movie with your friends. Rating 9/10

Kites (I) (2010)

Just come out of cinema after 30 mins, if not 20.

[4/10 · 21 May 2010]

I was waiting for this movie for a long time, a year I guess. But movie really disappoint me a lot. In the first half an hour movie promises a lot but after that they just shoot the scene without thinking anything. Editing is horrible. Even though music is good but you'd feel that you are tolerating the music. Kites completely fails to raise any emotion. If you are not coming in half an hour then please go home after interval because after that you need two tablets of some pain killer to watch this movie.

Rating 4/10 (2 for Hrithik dance, 1 for Barbara and 1 for music) Lets hope Rajneeti and Raavan don't take the same route.
