While reading Sanjukta’s post onTaare Zameen Par | Review Rip Off, it struck me that critics generally dont do justice to a persons work. (and thats why we call them Critics.. moron..). Though a lifetimes work might have gone into a creation, let that be the movie, songs, art, nothing escapes the critics noose.
Critics are necessary to build something of artistic value by pointing areas of improvement. But these days Critics have become art destroyers. They pointlessly rip apart a movie/art, like a sex maniac on a rape rampage, and goes on to publish their work for the bitter enjoyment of the masses as an accomplishment…
In the movie Ratatouille(2007), Anton Ego is a mean Food Critic, but at the end of the movie he goes on to give this critique :
…In many ways, the work of a critic is easy. We risk very little yet enjoy a position over those who offer up their work and their selves to our judgment. We thrive on negative criticism, which is fun to write and to read. But the bitter truth we critics must face is that, in the grand scheme of things, the average piece of junk is more meaningful than our criticism designating it so. But there are times when a critic truly risks something, and that is in the discovery and defense of the new… (read more)
This i say, every critic should read and understand before they wake up the rampaging art rapist in them.
I have no idea what was going through my mind when i went to the theater on Wednesday and booked tickets for Thursday 10pm show of Breach. I remember getting the ticket in hand and waking up to tell the cashier, “I’m sorry, it was a big goof up , i dont remember what i was thinking when i took this ticket, can you take it back and give it for another show?”. “Sorry sir no cancellations!!!”.
Aarrgggghhhhh!!! I definitely remember “HITMAN”, “BEOWULF” and “I AM LEGEND”, playing tricks in my head and making me confused as to which film should i watch first. But
BREACH??? How the hell did i ??? This is what i say as a total state of being mind-fucked situation.
I remember waking up today and thinking, “Did i get a ticket or what??? What was i thinking ???”. My friends had a good laugh. Before i left for the movie, while having dinner, i told them, i have this one ticket for the movie Breach and i’m going for it. “Who’s starring???”, “I dont know”. “Whats the plot about?”, “I dont know!!!” and they had a good laugh.
As usual, i was well before time for the movie, just lets say 45min. What should i do? Why waste time? Off i go to the ticket kiosk, trust me its way better than the Bangalore Municipality kiosks, and voila!!! Tickets for HITMAN, for Friday 8pm show. In no time i have ticket for another movie in hand. Suddenly i realize i’m going for movies alone these days. Who cares, No Girlfriend means, Nine troubles LESS!!!
So the movie finally started and boy i was in for a surprise. Its a good movie. Good is an understatement, its a pretty damn good movie.
A wannabe FBI agent Eric O’Neill, goes undercover to catch a top ranking FBI agent Robert Hanssen, who apparently is the biggest spy the US ever had against them. Based on a true story, the movie unfolds as master piece of its own. Plots, twists, turns and an excellent job by the cast. Enough scenes to put you to the edge of your seat.
IF you loved Bourne series, The Recruit, Enemy of the State and such conspiracy movies then this is one movie that you WILL enjoy.
It was a refreshing movie after all. Go watch it…
