Black - THE Review..

Just returned after a late night screening of BLACK..... this one adds to the zillions of existing reviews...... I wouldn't say the movie is not upto the hype generated, but all the while I was watching (except when retorting against my friends visibly miffed on my comments).... I could not stop comparing it with Mani's masterpeice work in Anjali..... made almost 15 years ago (gosh I'm a lot older than I think Iam) it had a better presentation than this one... the songs and the irrelavant comedy track apart it was too good of a movie and didnt' the recognition it thoroughly deserved.... this movie had a lot of talking , when silence alone cud have done the trick... Comparing may not be the best of ideas, but can't resist the temptation... Revathi's disposition when her autistic child calls for her the first time seemed infinetely more significant. A whole grade better than some other hindi movies i have seen lately, my eyes did moisten up a couple of times, very worthy of a collectors edition DVD.
