Take the time to read my whole review. Do not go by these 1/2/3-star reviews. They all miss the mark. If the "plot" was what people were focusing on in this movie, then they must be pretty out of their minds. We don't remember movies like Ramji Rao Speaking or Godfather for their "plot". Sure, they had their little plots, but we remember them mainly for the multiple incredible scenes and witty dialogue.
Despite the sensory overloads of those crappy text captions, the pathetic cringy dance and song interludes, and the seizure-inducing video edits, this movie had an incredible number of laugh-out-loud scenes as well as subtly funny ones which more than made up for the cringe.
If all these reviewers posting these crappy reviews here did not laugh at all those subtle nuances and dialogue, then I pity their sense of humour.
What actually irks me is that they then go on to call lame wannabe-Hollywood movies like Bheeshma Parvam and Rorschach "good cinema". I'd watch Gold any day over these.
This movie was not about the "plot" at all, it was about enjoying the characters' antics and interactions with each other.
That is where I come to the point I make in the title. Mr. Puthren, if you are reading this review, in my humble opinion, you have a gift in writing and directing incredibly funny scenes and dialogue. I see the Indian Tarantino in you. Don't waste it on the unnecessary cringe-inducing song/dance cuts and video editing overloads.
And Prithvi/Supriya, don't regret having made this movie. I haven't laughed this much in a while, so thank you.
I would have given this movie a 7 or 8 but am giving it a 9 just because of the heap of trashy low-score reviews here.
