Very good write up by Baradwaj Rangan.. http://baradwajrangan.wordpress.com/2012/07/29/a-fly-in-the- bonnet/ Naan Ee (which is the version I watched, in a full house) is the most insanely inventive movie of the year – perhaps of several years. Without a protagonist (or I should say, without a human protagonist), and with only a villain and a heroine, we are led through a story that’s funny, sentimental, action-packed, romantic – there’s even a bit of the occult thrown in. If I had to be picky and really, really mean-spirited, I’d say that the special effects could have been a bit better, that the fly could have been more convincingly animated – but I’m not even going to go there. When a film so audaciously and convincingly earns the audience’s suspension of disbelief, you don’t go picking holes about the small things that don’t work as well as they could have. You rejoice at the big things that are brought off so beautifully. |
