Interstellar (2014)
Scifi junk
Just could not believe Nolan would have created this junk. I could hardly see any action sequence and all I get to see is a family melodrama in the name of a sci-fi movie. The plot is good, but the movie clearly missed the direction it needed. Well the concept of space travel, gravity, wormhole, blackhole all looks good in books, to know more about it I would have read the brief history of time again or watched more documents on the Theory of relativity or blackholes, but to bring it out in reality one has to really evolve a lovely plot which was definitely missing in this movie.
If it was any other director I would have give it a 5 star. But, I have always looked upon Nolan in the leagues of Spielberg, James Cameron or Guy Ritchie. So, for all the great expectations and the disappointment, all I could give is 1 star. Sorry Nolan half the theater was empty by the time 1 hr flew and I had a take a short nap while the movie was running at a slow pace.
Kadal (2013)
Another Ravan in the making
Awesome songs, good photography skills & good actors alone cannot make a good movie. The story misses good script, editing & timing for launching the songs. Once again A.R Rahman delivers his part, but Mani fails to show it on the screen. Now I see Mani going along the lines of RGV, once a talented director & now you would not bother to watch any of his movies. First Ravan & now Kadal. Small time directors are making better movies, so what's so special about watching a Mani Ratnam movie?
People watch big budget movies for good entertainment, value for money, to get a break from the horrible week's routine. After watching such a movie you realize that spending 3 hrs of time with your family or at work would have been more productive. Sorry Mani, I had great expectation from this movie, all I can say is that this movie deserves 1 star for your Direction abilities. Had it been a first timer or a new director I would have given 5 stars out of 10. Pls don't waste your precious time to watch this crap.
