Malayalam Movie – Urumi Failes to create Magic it boasted off!!!
April 2, 2011
Dare to watch Urumi only if u r willing to get bored… Its just a Santhosh sivan portfolio of Prithviraj and his amazing camera work.. Some breathtaking art direction and cinematography has saved some pride for the movie but at times you feel a bit too much specially the way the last few war scenes..Too much slow motion doesn’t gel with the portrayal of fight using urumi in Kalaripayattu, the classical martial art of Kerala..
The only scenes u wont take ur eyes off r those wen the 4 beauties take the center-stage.. overall a real bad attempt by the whole team spoiling expectation of many movie lovers… Music and BGM can be given a thumbs up only because its mostly folk and a new cup of tea for Deepak Dev which he has done well.. Sound Mixing is A class..
Commendable performances from Prabhu deva and Aarya.. Prithviraj looks macho but a bit bulky at times in de screen, only positive being his gud dialogue delivery but overall fails to carry the movie as the protagonist!! Prithviraj had roped in Tabu and Vidya Balan just for the sake of their star value and masala factor as they just don’t have any special importance in the movie..
All hype no glory in the end for the so called upcoming superstar of Malayalam films…
