90 + 90 = 90

Sorry about my arithmetic - The Tamil film 180 fell short of my expectations. The director Jayendra in my opinion could have delivered a hit  had he used his vast experience to weave a meaningful story. The film opens with the H.T (Hot-throb-deliberate pun) NRI doctor Siddarth while taking a dip in the ganges,in one fleetimg moment realizes the value of living a meaningful life and to never fear death and that too from a young boy! Then its all about our hero Sid who goes around painting chennai with all the good deeds the director could think of. His penchant and specialty being helping young poor boys pushed into child labour working as newspaper boys, in tea shops etc. Yes! you must have guessed it if you have not you dumbos let me enlighten u - HEROINE no 1 watches this whole processwith fascination -at least you should have guessed by now- H1 madly falls in lovewith SID, but our  poor SID  is blissfully unaware that she has (jollu vazhinching) fallen in love with him. As the film meanders nearly to the interval point H1 proposes to SID unaware of the existence of H2 but poor sid is totally aware of anything  is totally stupified and dumb stuck literrally. SID then suddenly decides to slink out of town but our H1 gives  hot chase but in the bargain meets with an accident and yes our hero SID is forced to fly her to the USA where the whole story initially began sorry didn't i tell  u about this earlier.Am i confusing you-YES! I am, So please go and watch the second half and meet Heroine 2 and SID'S dear old friend who will help u unfold the second half of the story. Honestly guys a lot of effort has been put in by way of Camera work, Costumes and painstakingly chosen locations, so please go and watch the film at least once for my sake. Yes! I did come out rather disappointed, but my wife and daughter rather liked the film. The negatives - The climax that left a lot to be desired. Another major flaw in the film being -Why does the chief doctor fail to disclose to SID'S wife that her husband is alive and kicking. No 2-The director somehow seemed to be confused with the characterization of the hero - as he oscillates between a cancer patient facing death who somehow turns into a schizophrenic time and now to sum it up 90 PLUS 90 = 90 AND NOT I80. Until next time.
