Ok... What Makes a Bala Movie Special...??? The performances of each and everyone in front of the Camera,!! What is it that makes it not so special??? The stereotypical locations, stereotypical backdrops and a stereotypical storyline with some kinda tragic end to the movie.He did come up with some colourful names to the characters in the script, but that just did not add colour or change to his script, cos its all the same and one could ask for it by name!!
Very disappointed that Bala has not been able to think something else other than what he has been thinking since His debut venture in Sethu.. tho Avan Ivan had a comic script to start with, it led to the same old same old Bala's tragic ending but for a change, both the lead actors were spared of their lives in the movie, but the one guy who had a godfather like image in a small tribal town being dead, and of course the leading actors taking vengeance for the bereaved soul.
5 reasons why Bala should renegade his ideologies and opt for something different!
1. He is getting too monotonous with his storylines and screenplay, because after a point, you obviously know the ending without having to get to the climax, cos u surely know what's coming after that point, Its Bala after all... how else is it gonna end??
2. No matter what different types of characters he imbibes in the movie, one pivotal character has to die, its the thumb rule of Bala, Well this is just his 5th movie an
d i could already predict the outcome of 2 movies after watching 60% of the movie, which is not an impressing thing as far as the audiences are concerned.
3. He did manage to give us the laugh in Avan Ivan with virtuoso performances from both Vishal and Arya who deserve critical acclaim for the performances, but this is not enough, cos it was momentary, a long momentary change till Bala gets back to square 1.
4. It may be only till the Last 15 mins that the story might have been different, but in the end, it was all back up again, what does this say?? Bala lacks in the art of taking the story line in the same track as it began, which again is not a good sign.
5. Yes, I did enjoy it till the time Highness spots the smugglers, and I knew what was coming thereafter, Death,Vengeance & Poignancy.
Honestly, I'm very disappointed with Bala Because of his stereotypical nature and he must change with his next movie. Yes, I admit, Naan Kadavul changed me, it taught me to respect a living being however they are Raja Sir's music moved me till i cried profusely and I was a moved in Avan Ivan as well for the Navarasam Scene that Vishal enacts to Suriya and the crowd, but that's just it. What else is there in the movie that we see different in the second half?? Nothing, A very Similar story line to that of Pithamagan's.. the difference here is cows in Avan Ivan and Opium in Pithamagan.
Nevertheless, I hope to see Both Vishal and Arya get honoured for their performances, and as far as director Bala is concerned,i hope he renegades his belief of tragic endings and seeks a more out of the box approach to his next ventures. If this does not happen, he may be forced into an exodus just like many other directors if this trait of his continues, and on a more personal note, I hope he realizes his flaws and changes soon cos I'm a Big fan of Bala!!!!
