I still can’t believe it. I watched Sivaji – The biggest Tamil blockbuster. Are you in search of theories that do not support the basic laws that Newton had coined centuries ago? If you are you got to watch this movie.
My reviews: It’s a Rajnikanth movie. So, half your questions are answered. His movies are always shot in a world that doesn’t abide the basic laws of Physics. The story line is again very predictable, where he makes an attempt to save the society and ends up at the wrong end. And second half always is the fight that he puts up and in other words it’s the payback time for the baddies.
The thing that you need to watch out for are the anti gravity stunts that could bamboozle the best of Hollywood stunt makers. But first impressions – There weren’t many that caught my eye compared to his other movies.
Stunt 1 – Exciting methods of having a gum - The common trick that he instigates in the mind of the viewers is the innovative means of having a gum. I am sure no gum manufacturer has advertised this improbable method. Here is the stunt. He takes the gum from the wrapper and throws it at anything or anyone around him and it pops back into his mouth. A 10/10 for his accuracy.
Stunt 2 – How not to loose a One Rupee coin – I bet he would never be short of change. There is this all important one Rupee coin, which happens to be the bone of contention throughout the movie. But the contention is not to have it. Whoever has it suffers. But our hero is in his sublime mood to show you how you toss coins horizontally and in one vertical toss, it gets into pocket. Be it the shirt or the pant – Another 10/10 for his accuracy.
Stunt 3 – This is not one stunt, but many mingled together. The action sequence is so fast that I can’t disintegrate each one of them. Mr. Reeves would be put to shame when this sixty + year old dude used a pillar to swing around and knock everyone who is a mile away from his foot. And then there is this huge giant wheel where he fits himself in the middle and rolls his way through the bad guys. Hats off, to his acrobatic skills. It would take me ages to simulate one of them.
Stunt 4 – A stunt with musical instruments – Kudos to the scriptwriter to have thought of a stunt like this. He fights everyone playing every instrument. Typically, they get musically thrashed. And harmony is restored as he walks off the shop without a scratch, but God save the owner of the shop. Every punch or a kick revolves around a musical note of instruments including drums, guitar, piano etc.
And you think it’s over. No – there is this song that’s been inspired by Hollywood flicks like Desperado & Batman. If Newton were to be alive, I would seen him cry then faint and then commit suicide. His laws won’t work here. Truly our man can do anything. When I say anything, I mean it.
