... View MoreTo be honest this is the second review I am penning down for this movie. The first one was deleted by IMDb after another user reported abuse . The claims I had made in hat review regarding the mental health of those admired the movie thus stand vindicated.However, I have waited for a good 5 years before again logging in to pen down my views on this movie or as we may call it a freak show.The focal point in the movie is a love affair, something which our movies haven't been able to cut lose , may be for the dearth of ideas and imagination.The only interesting parts of the movie are the action sequences featuring the Robot i.e. if you nurse realistic expectations about the VFX or conversely if you have a satirical disposition .For the thinking man the movie presents 3 hours of ordeal and only the very brave or those on sedatives can sit through the movie. In 2010 I couldn't sit beyond half time and managed to watch the movie in bits and parts when it was subsequently telecast on TV.Do look out for a scene whee mosquitoes are shown talking among themselves conspiring to bite and suck some blood out of Aishwarya's body. That scene sums up the artistic integrity of the movie in question.
... View MoreArguably Enthiran has many similarities to "I, Robot". With that said, Shankar could have chosen any young lead other than South Superstar Rajini Kanth. It's painful to watch when a respected and admired actor is portrayed as a scientist with weird appearance and a clown robot which does gimmicks. Time and time again, it's proved that a movie with boat load of bloat CGI won't be a massive hit unless it's accompanied by a good plot, captivating screenplay and apt visualization. In Enthiran, Shankar failed to realize where he could infuse CGI and where he couldn't. Result is chaotic! Aishwarya Rai is misused again. It's clearly evident that a good amount of research went in to the movie. There's a lot of cheapness to the richness in this movie. A rape attempt on Aishwarya?
... View MoreEndhiran – ROBOT – ( A ) Robot is true entertainer, with wild action sequences and high quality graphics. The special effects of the movie are comparable to Hollywood movies. Rajnikanth is the man who made it so enjoyable with his performance. The difference of performances between engineer Rajnikanth and Robo before and after interval is spectacular. No one can imagine that it's the same person. Aishwarya Rai looked stunning in this movie; usually in commercial movies she doesn't look as stunning as to traditional movies. But this time in every frame and shot she leaves her beauty and performance mark. The director S.Shanker gave an amazing direction and A.R.Rahman's score is splendid as always. Overall, A complete package of fun, drama, action and entertainment.
... View MoreYou remember a few years ago? There was that tragically bad South Korean film about dragons? What was it? Dragon Wars? And IMDb was filled with pathetic Koreans trying to hype the movie because it was the best their hideous film industry could come up with? yet it was still utter garbage? You remember that? Well this movie is just the same,, with Curry on top.Like all bollywood movies, ever actor over 30 has had one vindaloo too- many,,, I mean really,,, are there any males between 30 and 50 in India who aren't all tubby and sweaty?Well yes the special effects are a step above what a retarded penguin with a 1992 copy of 3D Studio could cobble together,,, marginally,,, and there's one super hot babe with more 'I'm White' makeup than Michael Jackson,,, but,, you know what,,, I can't even make excuses for this total abortion of a movie.Like seemingly all Indian movies, there's a couple of dance numbers thrown in? Why? Please someone tell me why they always have to have a bit of a dance,, regardless of what's going on in the movie?Download the torrent for a giggle. If you pay more than a buck to see this,, you were taken.
