Rajini's- Endhiran

I was so intrigued by the hype and finally saw Endhiran.

None else but Rajini could bring out those bad-ass acts to life and make them entertaining too. He is just the only one left and these directors have no other choice but to choose him irrespective of his aged looks. Make-up can only help to an extent. Maybe CG next time.

Shankar should have invested few more crores and done CG for the heroine too. For a moment I thought Aishwarya Rai was the Robot. Bringing out expressions from that Barbie doll should have been very difficult and no wonder Mani Ratnam got heart attack in his previous attempts. Shankar is a smart man, he made the doll laugh, dance and walk and made everyone think it is acting. 

Songs were just only average. Not the best from ARR. When it comes to location selection for these songs- Shankar's creativity dazzles. The dessert with blue water (I think its color corrected) and Machu Picchu were a delight to watch. My dream list of visiting places only got longer by the addition of these two.

Fair enough to be not expecting a $270 million Avatar type graphics in $30 million Endhiran. As with any   sci-fi films, logic doesn't hold good here too.. But they should have taken care of terms like- 'Deworming'- I mean am not sure if it was intentionally overlooked to add comedy to the movie which Santhanam and Karunas (-he is so irritating) didn't contribute at all.

There was no disappointment when it comes to the script and story as there was none at all to be expected. 

Is it worth that hype? For Rajini fans- Yes. 
Others can wait to watch it at ease when the tickets are sold at normal rates... :)
