What could have been a good script is just wasted with mediocrity in all departments in this movie. It's also amazing how the threshold of good has been become so low by looking at the reviews. It's just an indication that how either people don't know/watched many good movies OR there have been so many bad movies in kannada industry, even if there is an attempt to experiment is considered amazing.
Movies based on reality have to walk the tight rope of not being a documentary. This movie fails at being a good movie but neither close to a realistic documentary.
The acting is mediocre, dialogues are ordinary, Screenplay is mediocre and movie is just dragged on unnecessarily. When will directors learn that just putting some facts together, adding some 1-dimensional moralistic tones, making shallow characters devoid of reality will never make a movie good I spite of picking a real message oriented story. Just holding a flag of "I am telling a story of injustice" does not equate to a good movie or any other art form for that matter.
I just "hope" directors and audience watch good movies beyond their language and country(for that matter, should follow art beyond movies) to upgrade their sensibilities. I would rather watch a no Brainerd entertainer than watch a message oriented movie just for the sake of it. Everyone intellectually knows about corruption and bad things which happen in our society and still go on except for few great souls. I don't believe movies should try to preach and I don't think can change society. But I believe they can make people atleast think and feel about stuff. So make a movie with heart, then your message will be a by product automatically. Start with a message then movie will not have neither heart and mind, just a clichéd kindergarten play minus cuteness of little kids and hence unbearable.
I wonder how many rhetoric, below par movies would have been avoided if directors were objective about their own talent and their output. Alas, that's not the world we live in.
