After a long wait, I
was so excited to watch the style king on big screen but the fun didn't last
too long. Ranjnikanth is at his charm of his life and this product is complete
waste of resource. Besides, I always admire KSR movies. Muthu and Padayappa was
amazing with right mix and therefore my expectation will only increase with
Linga. Anyways, there are enough reviews bashing linga but this post is all
about those funny moments in Linga that really pissed me off while watching but
a good laugh later with friends.
Disclaimer :
Rajnikanth fans, please don't be offended. My target is the sheer product and
definetly not thalaivar or KSR. Besides, I paid 18$ and I can vent out J
Here are the
irritating-later-funny moments in the movie:
Rajnikanth’s entry
: This is one of the sick entries thalaivar made in recent bunch. Jump out of
the car and dances for a song that I cannot hum no matter how many times I hear
it. Right after that song, its even worse. He is dreaming about this as a petty
thief. Crap !!!
The whole robbery sequence:
Never thought KSR can lift the magnet-key scene as it is from ‘How to steal a
million’ movie. On top of that, this is one of the most boring robbery sequence
I ever watched in tamil. Balloons to hide cctv, head security who safeguards 3
million+ value stuffs is a joker, hiding inside a closet bla bla .. what a
screenplay. When superstar is doing an impossible, you need to put brains on it
to make it top class. I am not comparing to Italian Job or bank robbery but
tamil flick, Nanayam (though lifted from Hollywood) had better robbery sequence
than this.
The thief gang:
Rajni and his friends (karna, santhanam, balaji etc.,) looked like they are
seriously making a spoof of Boys.
The Raja Bday event
: Excuse me, all on a sudden I thought am watching a documentary on how kings
celebrate their birth day. I thought I came for a movie that is supposed to
entertain and move story in every scene (atleast if not every frame)
British Tamil : All
this time we heard british English and now its time for British Tamil. “Nee Dam
kata mudyaathu venaa intha ponna kattiko nalla thaan irukkaa” LOL you cant degrade
a villain worser than this.
The climax : Wareee
Waa… Waada climax. Vijaykanth, Balakrishna all gets flattered by this balloon climax.
Do you want to laugh even louder ? watch KSR sir’s explanation here (when spiderman can do why cant superstar)
Though many
digested this movie for the sake of the magnet, Rajnikanth. As a diehard fan of
Ranjikanth, I cant excuse this product who made a mockery of the star’s charm.
This is the least I could do to vent out.
