DASAVATARM !

Its 1:30 Am and my eyes are refusing to shut, how much ever hard that I try..! Recollecting back certain conversations that I had today, one tats significant is de movie dasavataram..! its a movie which has been in hype for a long time, a movie which i personally feel was worth a wait..! There has been dis n number of discussions, reviews, blogs which 've read on dis movie, some of which were truly brilliant that i thot 'll pen down couple of my thoughts on dis movie! usually, When ppl watch movies, its of three kinds.. movies for fun, movies meant ONLY for commenting on it and movies which convey a meaning..! I am unable to classify dasavataram in any of three kinds, this itself shows that the movie stands a CLASS APART!! :)So 'd like to say couple of things which moved me in this movie..










wat i liked most in this movie, undoubtedly, KAMAL! he was jus brilliant!The potrayal of ten roles, each to perfection was jus amazing..!! Personally i thought the movie lacked the usual kamal touch,esp when comparing this to movies of his like nayagan, anbe sivam, to say a few.. but i had liked his effort in linking each character together! guess a lot has been said on each of kamal's character and chaos and butterfly thoery ect etc.. 'd just like to mention couple of things which captured my attention in dis movie significantly.
To start with the opening track, kalli mattum-jus amazing.. lyrics were simple but very moving!hats off to hariharan, he's sung this song with perfect emotional blend!
christian Fletcher-my fav character of kamal's..yea yea, i know of all his ten i liked this the best,, actually i dunno why, but the minute i saw this character of his, i found him very arresting..he radiated this power through this character of his, that i enjoyed it the best! and of course to mention 95 years old patti and his imitation of george bush! super!
The scene where kamal was tied to lord perumal at first and also one another where he catches the lord at the dawn of tsunami.. the screen shots where superb!
The way they'd showed the tsunami effect, it was really nice.. i hav always heard of the magnitude of the disaster but wen i saw de movie i actually felt it!
two others scenes also 'd liked, the way krishneveni patti locked herself in the cupboard..! i found de scene too cute! and the fighting sequence between Shingen Narahashi and christian, for a minute wen i saw de japanese character of kamal's i couldn jus believe it which makes me add one other point.. usually wen a movie releases, ppl talk of de acting, direction, music, max costumes! but i thought with out make up, no way could have kamal exhibited his ten roles that he'd dreamed..! if he was able to potray to us each character he'd visualied, its only due credit to the make up artist, westmoor! half of kamal's success in his acting was because he was depicted so well to the audience!I found Asin quite annoying in this movie,[ no offense to asin fans!] and mallika, i actually wondered why she was even there in de movie and the dubbing of her voice was jus awful!! These are couple of things which i wanted to mention on de top of my head..anything else, will edit this blog!

All in all, a movie by kamal, for kamal and of kamal!
