PoSeIdOn


POSEIDON released all over the world ran to a full house in chennai today ... whether it fulfilled the expectations of the audience or not is a ? ...

Captioned "titanic 2" it didn't even come close to be called "titanic 20" ... If you thought you could give your eyes a feast with the ship's luxurious interior or charm (1000 crore investement on this movie would make you think so) all you get is an appetizer for the first 10 minutes and the plight of those who came 10 minutes late is the only comedy element of this movie ("Dei ... Ship engada? / Padatha adhukulla mudichutaangala" were the comments we heard)

Coming to the story ... POSEIDON sinks after hit by a "rogue wave" on the New Year's eve and how 6 people escape out of the wreckage is the whole story ..

Heroism, Sentiment, Irony .. you have everything in this movie ... but too much of "technicalities" (you see more of wires, motors & water than the characters) doesn't help everyone enjoy the movie ...

The performance of Josh Lucas, Kurt Russell & the little boy Jimmy Bennett is worth watching the movie once.

Hmmm...that was what I thought about this movie, as I was watching the Sun TV movie's review. There should be lots of mumbo jumbos... and here you are explaining that.

Thank you I will not waste my pennies then on it. I will wait for the DVD to get out! :-)
