Dasavatharam

Its been over 2 weeks since the movie came out, and over 2months since I last blogged.
But all credit to this movie, I'm back at blogging.

You would already heard raving reviews about Kamal Hassan's acting, and it is a universal truth (unfortunately to all Rajini and Vijay fans) that Kamal Hassan is an awesome actor.

However, as a short and sweet blog, apart from the acting, and the amazing editing which puts us at the end of the seat, I more ever thoroughly enjoyed the more sinister comedy and messages that were offerred in the screenplay.

Bush calling the Indian primeminister 'Man' Mohan Singh had me and my brother cracking. Unfortunately my parents didn't see the comedy. All I can say is pavam Bush, sariyaana adi avanukku. I hoep he doesnt sue anyone for this film.

Then there was the very last conversation by Asin and Kamal. IT was sensational. Asin says 'Kadavul illai enru sollatheenga' and he goes ' illai enru sollavillai, iruntha nallairunthirukum'. Sensational! Hat's off to Kamal who wrote the script.

Another brilliatn dialogue was in the climax fight between Japan Kamal and Fletcher Kamal. And by the way brilliant camera work (3 Kamals on screen at same time). Fletcher says ' REmember Hiroshima', and Japan goes ' remember Pearl Harbour'. That was awesome.

Out of the 10 avathaars, amma's favourit was krishanveni paati. And I must say brilliantly done. But I loved Chris Fletcher the most. As the foreign villain, his actions were very aptly and naturally conveyed. This is not to say none of the other 10 avathars very in any way inferior. They were flawless. However sometimes, especially with the tall muslim Kamal, the makeup was very obviously white. But that was about the only minus, I'm still awing at the tallness of the Muslim Kamal. The telugu Kamal was hilarious, especially his dialogue about Telugu being the second most spoken language in India.

Asin's theyveeka bakthi was brilliantly portrayed too. A bubbly appearance indeed. And after havign a dose of Kuruvi, where Trisha is nothing but the glamour girl in the movie, I thoroughly enjoyed Asin's character which was equally important to the overall story line.

Its neat how all the 10 caracters tied in. But on hind sight, a lot of the character were just for the sake of being there. YEt still as I said earlier, nothing is boring and your on the end of your seats till the end. And for taking Tamil cinema to a new level, Commendable job indeed!! Moving away from the same old gaana paatu, sandai, and love, this was unique!!!

Whilst initally I thought the climax tsunami was just for pramandam, it acutally fits into the movie. Amazing!

For full enjoyment all dialogues must be comprehended, but even without full comprehension the movie is a step up in the tamil film industry.
