Over all a gr8 Romantic Flick for the holiday season
6 May 2011
Saw "Engeyum Kadhal" today....No new things in the film except the flawless filmography....Harris' songs add a special dimension to this film...I have never witnessed a crowd with this much energy as they made relentless noise throughout the film in the theater that i watched in Chromepet...So much for watching it in the first day first show itself....Hansika is like an angel...No words to describe her cuteness...Jayam Ravi really fits like a T in this role....Prabhu Deva's direction has improved a lot...But still a little more attention to details is missing...The opening song gave me Goose bumps after seeing Prabhu Deva in full flow....All the songs were filmed with a gr8 effort and especially the Nangai song which rocked the entire theater....A one line story and a one line screenplay but what makes this movie a special one?.... Portrayal of the Characters....Only four established characters in the film but Prabhu Deva proved that it's enough to make the audience to glue on to their seats....No twists or turns or any kind of speed bumps except some Mokka comedy of RajaSundaram....I think it's Harris Best album after a long time....My friend's told me that the story had bee stolen from the film "Orange"..But it doesn't matter where u get inspiration...It matters that how u represent it...In that Prabhu Deva excelled in many ways...Nirav Sha is going to be one of the busiest photographer after this film...His lighting sense is out of this world..Had a thought that i just watched an International film solely because of the photography...And as u know its easy to film if the location is as beautiful as Paris..U can find so many bits and pieces of music stolen from here and there...But Harris a perfect assembler...But what puts u off is the Cliché of so many Hollywood films...But nobody is taking such an elaborate risk as Prabhu Deva has taken for this film...Its best to watch it in theaters ...If u r a die hard romantic...It's a must watch....Over all a gr8 Romantic Flick for the holiday season...:)
