Dark Knight Rises - English Movie review

So here comes the most awaited movie in this year.....yes I said it as the most awaited movie.....The teasers and trailers of the movie which have given it's fans goosebumps....the movie which got much hype and media attention because of its wonderful first part.....The first part which the audience watched for villain than the super hero.....for its wonderful screenplay and at a time it came as first best movie in the world yeah in the IMDB over taking even the supremo Godfather.....Anyway when an another part for such a kind of movie comes that too from the same crew and from the same director who casted a magic spell with his direction ventures like Dark Knight,Inception etc....And the movie got media attention  when it said "The Legend Ends" as its tag line...So lets go the movie review....perhaps this one is the first premiere movie review on my blog.....Right out of the first show in the world.... :)

Dark Knight Rises - Not a great swansong but well done




I don't know whether I can use the term swansong here because I don't really know whether the series ends here or not....may be it can go on .....Anyway lets go into the movie.....As in the first part...its the powershooted entry of the villain is the first main point of the movie.....but I would this time it was bad not as good as the Joker's entry....I felt the scenes were really dump when they introduced Bane-The villain ..but there is a dialogue from him ;;"No matter what we are ...what matters is what we do"....You should keep your logic aside....Then the movie starts off from there...slowly...a pace which can make audiences little bit bored....As usual I wont tell anything about the story line.....They should have made the first half little bit racy.....Screenplay lags here and there...sometimes like during Batman's entry and all you will be thrilled but that adrenalin is not well carried across the first half......But this lag is well corrected by some wonderful dialogues which can really make international audiences interested to the subject......I am not saying the first half is way too bad or not at all interesting but I m just saying dont expect a race rushed first half then you will be disappointed


Coming to the second half of the movie,this is really holding the movie up. They made it really superb such that audince will really be going along with the story line and that is where perfect movies take birth.Some good action sequences ...perfect stunt scenes everything was there in the second half and the last twenty minutes of the second half is really thrilling such that at the end of the movie you will stand and clap.There are really interesting twists in the movie.....Watch out the same for that.....Second really scores because the screenplay was pretty tightly packed and there no lag....Also some dialogues were really interesting...

Into the technical side of the movie,animation and VFX works were as usual ..top class.....There is a scope for a good improvement in the screenplay but still its good....its like a first ranker of the class still can score much more as he/she has the capacity for that :P .......Stunt sequences are really good especially the bike stunt using Batman's bike ( " You got a wrong Animal here sir ?").........The powerful part I felt is the dialogues ,they are really in class with the Dark Knight.....The tempo is really well maintained....

From the acting side.....Villain was a biggest let down for me......No facial expressions....but sound and cruelty he portrayed was really superb and may be that will keep the audience engaged.Bruce Wayne was usual did a great job and also the cat woman.....Nothing can be called as a brilliant performance from the acting crew as we had Heth Ledger in the Dark Knight and that is really a worry part for me in this one.......Anyway I dont think most of the audience will look into these kind of things.....

Overall it is a good movie...Stunts...powerful villain....Batman..Batwoman....Robin..and so on.....As a package it delivers what it is intended to be....and Nolan can be happy....another hit is in his kitty.....This movie may not become as great as Dark Knight has become but I am sure this will be rated as one of the nice movies made and also will set the box office ringing.......


My rating is 8/10--Watch it for the good swansong and a perfect entertainer ...AND TO KNOW  WHETHER  THE LEGEND ENDS OR NOT????????.


Note : Watch it carefully,sometimes you can get the climax twist in the first 30-45 minutes itself....I have found out the same :P :P

And I still loves " what happens when an unstoppable forces meets an immovable object " than "No matter who we are...what matters is what we do"

Naan Ee/Eega/Eecha ---Terribly Fantastic

Its almost some three months since I have written my last review.Its not because I have stopped watching movies but because my home has become so isolated such that not even mobile internet will give me short term range to post my reviews. In these span of time I have watched some really good movies like spirit,grandmaster,Man on a Ledge etc.....But except spirit none of them was not on my list of much expected movies of the year....One of movie I was eagerly awaiting was the Naan Ee....only because the director is my ever time favorite....Rajamouli sir.....He is really exceptional .....perhaps one in the range of Hollywood folks......and so I just booked the tickets for Naan Ee with a hell lot of expectations.....and here goes my review


Naan Eee----Must watch and terribly fantastic


The movie's storyline is just a bedtime story for a young child from his/her grandma or grandpa or even from the parents as most of children these days misses the old story telling grandma and grandpa.....Anyway the story line is simple...a bad boy....loves a cute girl....kills her lover....and then the lover coming back as an Ee(eecha)...thats it....storyboard over....but I m still getting goosebumps when I remember the scenes of the movie.....all salute to the director who conceived the story in an international fashion with a great support of brilliant animation....Ra One and all needs to learn from these kind of movies.....Animation truly in an international level....Not even a single second of boring.....Movie just flows.....When you are showing an Ee's as movie'e central character, you need to be very careful because the story always needs to movie in a hero's view point.....Rajamouli and the script writer made a real magic here....the entire story is perceived from the eyes for the fly....even the camera work is done in such a way.....I dont have words to describe.....

In the acting side, Sudeep as the villain did a superb job....He needs to act many scenes as a fly was there in the scene eventhough in reality it will not be there...he did s tremendous job....Nanni have nothing much to do ,did his scenes well...Samanatha on the other hand also a did a good job....she had some presence throughout the story line along with the Ee...Kudos to the director there because he just didnt sidelined the female character.....Santhanam also did some nice one lines which was really interesting in the movie's end.....The climax dance from fly was really good .....All over it was the result of a brilliant team work....Hats off to all of them

Technically, the movie is just exceptional and a masterpiece in Indian cinema.....Editing and Animation at its best...When lot of things combines and all of them are it's best then it gives birth to a great product...and that happened in the case of Naan Ee....Camera work also deserves mention as the angles are really good and made in the way of the fly's view....Background score is also really good which makes audience go off their seats and clap for the fly.....Music is just ok with only one song.....Eeeedaa Eeeedaa song was really foot tapping.......Thats it from technical side

My rating is 9/10-----Terribly Fantastic

Yes I used terribly with fantastic like Shakespeare used Most with unwanted.... :)
