Raja Sen, Your movie reviews are getting insanely one sided. Heard from a birdie that youve been trying to turn director in Bollywood and the break isn't coming... Is that the reson for this 'hammering'? A case of sour grapes perhaps?

THE QUALITY OF RAJA SEN IS ZEEERO....THE POINTS WHICH IS IS TIPPING IS USELESS. LET HE BE THERE IN THIS DUTY ELSE HE WILL LOOSE HIS JOB. HE HAS THE QUALITY ONLY TO REVIEW SOME STUPID KHANS AND OTHER GAY HERO MOVIES.

Sabotage
by king on Jun 20, 2010 09:23 PM

This is clear Sabotage this is world of marketing, to make khan clan superstars underworld dons with black money and corrupt mediaperson, tv channels, this kind of review are bound to publish. Every time when a good movie not of khans get such reviews from press. Evryone knows when a underword person is killed by police this presswala go overboard with human rights issues example gujrat ganster shahabuddin encounter, when poor gulshan kumar was killed no one said anything about human right when gulshan kumar had done so much to give music to poor man of india given so many good singers to india. So guys dont take this review at facevalue go and watch this movie and then decide if it good or bad.

AB vs Vikram

abhishek is a non-actor and non star. only parents and ash propped him up. but a dead horse will stay dead no matter how much u flog it !!On the other hand Ravanan (tamil) is a blockbuster hit due to outstanding portrayal of the same role by by the supremely talented vikram !

Vikram is there in Hindi version also if at all u noticed, some overacting from him was ther in the role.

I thought Ab was better in the movie.
But all Tamil eyes see tamil to be better.

Ravan not directed by KJ/RGV/YC/VC
by ALbert ArulPrakashRajendran on Jun 20, 2010 08:45 PM

The problem with this movie is that, it was not directed by RGV/Karan Gayhar or Chopra's company directors. If it was directed by them, then the movie will be a very big hit and all the characters were flawless. What to do, Mani Ratnam does not know how to make a movie. He don't know to shoot some wonderful songs in a foreign locations in between a fight or a tough situations.

That is the reason everyone let mani down.

From what I read about guzarish, it sounds more like the spanish movie.."The sea inside" as oscar award winning movie with my favorite actor javier bardem...
please be beware of this Sanjay Leela as even Black was a copy of 1950s english movie...I have no issues with such copy or being inspired...but he must ackowledge that openly....

Movie goers please be wary of such products

Saw the movie yesterday. Mani Ratnam as usual has given more importance to the sensitivities of his characters and situations that bind his characters against building a big story. For those used to having stories where the hero grows up, gets married, bears children, fights the villain and avenges the 25 years old injustices that occured in life - this movie will look as if it has no story. But in reality it is a very tightly knit script that beautifully draws a parallel between the age old mythology and current happenings. One cannot miss Mani's take on the problems faced by tribal societies. Vikram is class, his face changes emotions in split seconds and each one of those is convincing. Cinematography and background music standsout. Ash has done good work.

Dear Raja Sen:
Dev asks Raghini to take lie detector test as a cover-up to emotionally lead her towards Beera - Did you understand that?

Mani Ratnam's class stands out in the dignified way he shows Beera's sister plot, including the way she asks the cop to smell out Beera's hide out and in retaliation the cop catches her nose. That's creativity at its best to draw parallel with Ramayan. You find fault with that?

This may not be Mani's best work but it is miles and miles ahead all the Indian movies that I have seen in the past 2 or 3 years. That includes Aamir's 3 Idiots and Raajneeti.

Doesn't matter Raavan is a commercial success after all there are many who have Raja Sen like sensibilities.

Looks like u havent seen Dev-D, Kaminey, Love Sex aur dhoka, A Wednesday,Ishkiya, Luck by chance..etc in the last 3 years...or did u just wake up from slumber...

Mani lost it in this movie...as simple as that..and most of the viewers are agreeing to that...Your explanations are lame and silly...infact I found that whole nose thing by Priyamani stupid...just cause he wants to highlight the nose he had used it..(thank god prakash jha didnt make Ajay go with metal jacket to highlight the kavasakundalam..in rajneeti)..
And ya only a stupid woman will run back to Dev to know what he told her husband....instead of waiting and reasoning out...btw tell me how she reaches an inaccesible beera (who is till being pursued by the police) with a starched stain free white kurta whilst during the entire period before they show beera hiding in tough terrains and Raginin in tatters....beats anybody's intelligence..if u have one..

And for once Raja sen in correct and I thank god that there are still people around with raja sen like sensibilities...otherwise any crap will be sold in the name of a movie..let alone a Mani ratnam one...

So if Prakash Jha didn't use bullet proof jacket then Mani shouldn't have his creative liberty.. is it? What an argument!

Ok so... Raghini runs back to Beera to know the truth under emotional strain .. you think she is stupid -- Mani can make his character to be stupid.. can't he? Again what's your argument?

Did you see the movie without prejudice?... Beera's brother takes Raghini to Beera's hideout..so why would her cloths be torn?.. it's people like you trying to think that an artist should follow your logic.. who are stupid..
Mani is an artist.. he has imagined and delivered a very decent product..proabably closer in class to A Wednesday..
Don't make your hatred misjudge his artistic output..
