Ulidavaru Kandanthe | ಉಳಿದವರು ಕಂಡಂತೆ
Watched Ulidavaru Kandanthe movie in a cinema hall. And I shall state the best five and worst five things about the movie from my perspective. And try to justify the worst and enjoy the best.
[ Best Five ]=
1. Cinematography is really excellent. You can watch the entire movie without any sound. Almost an extended show reel of brilliant technicians.
2. Audio Mixing & Sync sound adds more realism. With a quiet audience its a feast to ears. Very well mastered. The Re-recording is really awesome.
3. An effort to portray the essence of Malpe culture is exuberant & such a lively performance on-screen. Visual elements and the method of presentation is stunning.
4. Color grading of the movie is really commendable. Initially it starts with cooler tone and gradually transits to warmer tone. All lush green montages are very well balanced. Especially the blades of grass from low angle shots.
5. Text overlay balances the technical richness without down-grading by a static fill. The typography at every chapter's beginning is apt for the theme. No flashy gimmicks.
Overall : Everything outside of the paper has been rendered very well. An excellent job. Certain sections of the movie are too good to be seen over & over again. Special scene would be the one where "Richi gets up in an auto to see Regina".
[ Worst Five ]=
2. Before the entry of Richi, he will be smoking a joint/cigarette with a thinner girth. As soon as he kicks the door open, he will be having a cigar in his mouth. It could have been consistent. And a typical revolver does not pop-out the shells. Blood packets are vividly seen & little more caution could've been taken.
3. Too much of repetitive scenes. The recap to show the different dimensions of a single event was an ineffective way of utilizing run-time. I wonder why the editing unit didn't question about this. And when the dimension changes they could've used 2 cameras to capture the same action. Rather than running through the dialogs all over again. Cuban story became stale by the time it reached the climax.
4. Most of the beautiful songs were butchered with a negotiable editing. Linear play to emphasize the notoriety of Richi was a big thumbs down. There were more than 5 situations to add vibrance to his negative shade. Emptying the arsenal with the boat sequence was not quenching enough.
5. Dropping the 'Regina' part & retaining 'Pulp Fiction' style of presentation could've saved more than 20-30 mins. Not much impact or sense was made by that character. Glimpses of 'SinCity' visuals with Red color prominence, was a cliche. The crow part of the movie is a bit-off. At coastal region, its quite common to hear the raucous of crows, which feed on fishes. Must have been negligible for a person from that region.
Overall : Very disappointing dialogs. Not much weightage whatsoever. The work on paper such as story, script, screenplay, dialogs, all these could have been a little better. Very much disappointed with the story telling part of the film.
Regarding the acting 'Thara' has done her best without even uttering a word. Splendid performance, takes a greater gift to grab hold of the shirt of a co-artist and look at him in the eye say "Where had you gone for so long my son". And the kid "democracy", he has done his best being himself. Fills my heart with innocence.
I would personally like to congratulate the technical team of UK for their sincere effort for rending such a great audio and visual treat. And Rakshit Shetty, you have assembled a great team. Wonderful direction. I could not take home any memorable "Dialog" and that's the missing ingredient.
Please release the movie in Blu-ray after it completes 100 days. so that we can check the quality of TV, Sound System, Headphones.. etc..
All the very best. Keep us entertained with many more good stories. I've given my honest opinion. Peace.
Finally found the "Thing".
Thank You.
