I watched the movie without any expectations and I was pleasantly surprised.
What worked:
What did not work:
Final verdict: Highly recommended. Maybe it's one of the very few movies after Taare Zamin Par that stands to tell the story of time and society it belongs.
- beautiful screenplay and storytelling
- authentic location and mood of the movie
- story told through the eye of a kid usually works and it's one of them
What did not work:
- some melodramatic scenes could have been taken away, but still with the short run time of the movie, it's generously acceptable.
Final verdict: Highly recommended. Maybe it's one of the very few movies after Taare Zamin Par that stands to tell the story of time and society it belongs.
