SUPER- My review!


Satisfaction, happiness, thought provoking, memories.... I think the only media through which we can probably gain these emotions inside us is CINEMA. I never thought I would write something like this in my blog, but it was inevitable. Some feelings have to be put out to just relieve yourself. So am just doing the same. All the previously mentioned emotions clubbed together in a single movie is too much to ask for. Is it? Yes, but I surely got my money worth and all those feelings by watching a movie today i.e., "SUPER".
As we all know its a movie directed by Upendra after a ten year long hiatus and it just made me think that we certainly missed him and his creative thoughts in this past ten years. Yes, Uppi has certainly made a movie we all Kannadigas ought to be proud of. Its a movie which our Indian cinema needs to take a look at. Coz if you miss this, you are probably missing out one of the chapters of film-making.
The movie makes you sit through the whole 150 minutes without even blinking an eye . Am not exaggerating, right from the title card itself the audience will be involved. You can't even miss the title card. I have been thinking ways to tell the storyline, but apart from a single sentence that-it is a movie in which the hero dreams and achieves the futuristic India, I am not able to tell the story at all. Because its the screenplay which makes you come out of the movie enjoying every inch of it but unable to say the story. That has been the trademark style of Uppi and he has proved it again.
The scenes are so meticulously etched out that you will realize you can't imagine the next scene or predict the end ever. The scene in which Uppi confronts his father in front of a crowd, riduculing Indians in such a way that, we can just laugh on ourself and yet realize the impact of his thought behind that scene. Uppi's imagination about futuristic India appears so simple yet we feel why we didn't think like that. He defines the meaning of true Indian. Nayantara as the lead actress is clinical in her job and so are other characters.
Two more things which make the movie different and should laud him for his clear idea in achieving them is- the character of a FAMOUS JOURNALIST of highly circulating weekly of kannada . And the second one is the picturisation of the song -"naanu sooper ranga".Its probably an epitomy of a song how to be picturised.
All in all its a movie which is worth your money, worth your time and worth Uppis' efforts. Don't miss it. Final words to Upendra,( I know he may not read it, but) please do not take a break from directing movies and you are the best creative director to be present in the industry. Keep us entertaining.
