Sivaji - The Movie

Just back from watching the movie Sivaji...!! went with the whole family...!! around 14 of us!! was lots of fun actually....!! i wasn't really looking forward to it...one cos i dont understand tamil very well and two cos i dont really like rajinikant movies...no offense meant to anyone! this is my view...!!!
so, the movie...it was...hmm...let's see....it was funny, yes...cos i always find his movies funny...the dialogues are totally kickass!! i love the dialogues of his movies...they're so funny....and they rhyme!..lol...i cannot get enough of them!!! and yes only if u know tamil u'll get the point of the dialogues...they lose their charm if translated...!
the action scenes are totally matrix-ised! too much of special effects....they're beyond unreal! even for his movies...the action scenes are too much to take....there's one scene in the movie which looks totally like a take off from spiderman...one stance of his...so totally spiderman like...but i guess the whole point of a rajini movie is the overdramatised action sequences!
usually rajini movies have a theme behind all the exaggeration...this one is about corruption and bribes within the government...of course in the movie rajini is this super amazing hero who gets everything done by his fighting and style and stuff...obviously it's nothing like that in reality...the problem has been adressed...like many other movies...but the whole point of his movies are to entertain...and that it does...almost...the songs...none of them worth remembering...and some parts of the movie are seriously boring....!!!
some of the things to look out for in the movie...his way of eating centrefresh....the way he says cool......the way he plays with a one rupee coin...the way he taps his head...these are a few...lol...and of course his one liners...they're amazing...yup...truly amazing! oh even vivek must get a mention here...i totally love his comedy and he's great as usual! :)
on the whole i guess u can watch the movie once...totally not worth paying 1500/- for a ticket!!
i just had to watch it because it's a rajinikant movie and i have no serious complaints as such...!!:)

ps: i got an internship with Deccan Herald ...!!! an english daily...and im so excited!!!i officially start from tomorrow and i'll be glad to do ANY work they give me!! jus the whole idea of being an intern there is amazing!!! :) can't wait to start "working"!!!!! :D :D :D yay me!
