MY TAKE ON "KO"

It suddenly dawned on me that i should review the films i watch, so i decided to make a beginning with the most recent film i viewed "KO". TAMIL CINEMA IS ON A REMIX MODE. "KO" IS A REMIX OF MANY TAMIL,ENGLISH AND OTHER LANGUAGE FILMS. K.V.ANAND HAS CLEVERLY CRAFTED AND PACKAGED AN ENTERTAINER WHICH HAS SHADES OF MANI RATHNAM, K.S.RAVIKUMAR AND SHANKAR ALL WOVEN AND REMIXED INTO ONE COMMERCIAL ENTERTAINER. THE MOVIE IS SHOWCASED AS A SERIOUS THRILLER BUT ENDS UP LITERALLY AS A SPOOF OF A SERIOUS TAMIL THRILLER. THE MACHO REPORTER (JEEVA) THE DRESSED UP DOLL Y KARTHIKA WHO KEEPS ROLLING HER EYES ALL THE TIME. THE AGGRIEVED SECOND HEROINE PIA BAJPAI WHOSE DEATH SOMEHOW FAILS TO MOVE YOU. THE NEW GENERATION VILLAINS WHO REMIND YOU OF THINGS TO COME. AS A BONUS CAR CHASES, ITEM NUMBERS, STUNT SCENES AND EXOTIC LOCATIONS ARE THROWN IN TO SATISFY THE AVERAGE TAMIL CINEMA VIEWER. ALL IN ALL WHAT MR.MANI RATHINAM LOST IN "GURU" AND "RAVAN" WAS FOUND AND REMIXED BY MR K.V.ANAND . SOMETIMES I THINK THAT AS A WRITER AND DIRECTOR I SHOULD STOP WORKING TOO HARD ON MY SCRIPTS AND CONCENTRATE ON REMIXING MY THOUGHTS! I INVITE UR POINT OF VIEW ON THIS REVIEW OF MINE AND YOUR TAKE ON THE FILM "KHO". BYE !FOR NOW,
