Baishe Srabon (2011)
too much melodrama!
A watchable film. Perhaps a bit too melodramatic at times,especially at the end. In general the plot is mostly predictable and a little flat. The good cop turning bad cop thing is a story we have seen in many many films and needs no new exponents but that is precisely what this film is about. The bright sparks are Gautam Ghosh's acting,which in all fairness was quite good and the soundtrack for the film which is pretty enjoyable. But that is mostly it and that's the problem. While it is a refreshing change to watch Ghosh's acting skills,its not what people go to watch a movie for..Everyone Else's acting is pretty mediocre and the direction,slack. Not a must watch at any rate but more of a film you should watch when you find you have nothing much else to do. Having said that,it is not a bad film,just that it could have been a lot better.
Su-ki-da (2005)
immensely piquant
serenely beautiful film from hiroshi ishikawa.brilliant cinematography and top notch acting. i was really overwhelmed by the innate silence in this film.the minimalist dialogue really adds a new dimension to this film.there is almost non-existent back ground music which only increases the atmospheric feel.long drawn shots of the actors as they go through the gamut of emotions accentuates this effect.perhaps no film i've ever seen so easily proves that sometimes words don't matter,silence speaks volumes. aoi miyazaki gives a superlative performance as the teenage yu and later is followed suit by hiromi nagasaku as the older version. the plot in itself is pretty simple.it is the actors and the direction which makes watching this film worthwhile. the average movie-goer might find this film frustrating.watch it only if you are willing to put up with the silence. definitely a film i'm immensely glad i watched.
