A Great - Lovely - Captivating but Not-Western Movie

Earlier on this day, I watched a movie - yes the movie marathon program still running - and I was dazzled. The movie title will be kept secret since this blog mainly discusses the daily activity of an insignificant life, not a movie review. In brief, if you prefer a dark cunning yet full of familial affection thriller crime movie, this Bollywood masterpiece is recommended to watch.

Did I say Bollywood? Yes, you are not mistaken. At first, I always thought that Bollywood movies only have one big special formula. Two individuals, fallen in love, happy (which followed by the unnecessary music video and second rate happy dancer on the background), the problem occurs, sad (which often followed with the lightning strike sound effects and non-essential music video, again), a situation that strengthens the love or principal value happened, the protagonists give a maximum effort, the problems solved, and finally live happily ever after. Wow, such a long statement, isn't it?Note this, knowing that formula saves me from disappointment because it made me always put the not-too-high expectation on Bollywood movies. 

However, not on this one. The movie that revolves around a murder case utterly blew my mind. One side of the party creates the horror of interrogation to seek the truth, whereas the other establishes the solid alibi to protect themselves. However, both of them have the similar principal value: family. Two hours and a half spent and I did not aware until the movie ended. The rollercoaster flows with a strong foundation of the characters make every second count, a rare situation when I watch a Bollywood movie. The stigma of a lack tension, absence suspense, but brimming with melodramatic romance broke down. The movie gives me a new Indian movie perspective. After the movie finished, I still did not believe that I actually love it. Therefore, I checked Google and found out that this movie was rated 8.7 on IMDB! I have a decent judgement on the movie's quality, after all.

Truthfully, I wish I could write more about this special movie but I want to continue my movie marathon program. I might see many great films that I have never know before, right? Thank you and see you.
