Trade Offs (2003)
Outstanding film with great character development. Emotionally captivating!
Every great film begins with a great script and Trade Offs did just that. I loved the story and could really relate to the characters. The film makers took a real life relationship problem all too common in this country and presented it in such a way that the audience could see and feel the pain of both sides of the fence. The story is well-balanced and maintains the attention of the audience throughout. Plus, the events that transpire are all unexpected. The story is great from beginning to end. Great character development and chemistry. Superb acting throughout. This is Vikram's first film? Very well directed. He had a vision and I do believe he succeeded in bringing that vision to the screen. Great job! Speaking of "great", how about the music? Can be so easily overlooked but a great series of images amounts to little without a well-composed soundtrack. "Trade Offs" is polished off with a beautiful soundtrack that makes the Indian culture of the characters in this new world come to life. I applaud the entire cast and crew for their tireless efforts in this project. You have been rewarded with a great finished film,... and this is only the beginning!
