Kantara

Kantara

Shiva, a tribal vagabond lives with his mother in hamlet, stays away from the traditional Daivaradhane and Bhoota Kola legacy due to an unforgettable childhood incident. He is happy loafing around with his friends and doing petty jobs for his landlord. When Forest officer Murali enters the scene, it gives a fresh dimension to the man-vs-nature fight. Can Shiva save the forest from Murali? Or is Murali just a dummy bait cast by bigger fish?

    Kantara movie is a great movie
    Film Story : It involves culture of Kambla and Bhootha Kola. A human and nature conflict where Shiva is the rebellion who works against nature. A loop leads to war between villagers and evil forces. Will he able to replace peace in the village?.......

    The Pig / The Scream
    A king, who thinks he is not happy. (I didn't get it) He travels his own properties to look for happiness. (Here I asked myself, whoa, am I still happy? LOL) He encounters an object; he becomes happy right at that moment. (I don't know, who understand it) The dwellers, who look like a group of tribals, not actually villagers, suddenly appear. When the king wants that object and promises to give them anything they want in exchange for that. The villagers (more wild than general villagers) want the properties in exchange for happiness. That is, the villagers will give the king happiness/the object, but he has to give the jungle properties to the dwellers.

    Here I have listened to hoarse screams, I have seen everything, the object, the king, the villagers, but I didn't see the happiness.

    When the next generation claim the properties back, a dancer, but the villagers consider him God-like, vanishes without trace. It is not clear to me, who is the pig? Is that vanished dancer who born again as a pig. However, the demigod of the 2nd generation was the father of 3rd generation hero.

    The 2nd generation claimer dies without reason (some will say it is because of the villagers' curse). (I don't think it exists)

    Then the story starts with the 3rd generation of two parties.

    I won't repeat the story. The thing that disturbed me was that the 3rd generation claimer is a very good person in the entire movie. But suddenly becomes rude and violent (as if, the writer can write anything any moment), on the other hand, the (rude and bad) policeman becomes so gentle suddenly, despite almost killed by the 'hero' (as if, the writer can write anything any moment).

    Many are dying in the battle no one cares, but when a fatso (a joker friend of hero who has nothing to do with the story) dies, everyone after him.

    The hero is a superman, he can fight even with 100 and win despite taking (sedative charas, we called it ganja). This superman almost dies, but suddenly a ghost appears within him, he screams and screams, as if he is trying to make his viewers laugh. This superman cum ghost cum that dancer which vanished in the 2nd generation moment fix everything. And the villagers don't have to leave their homes.

    Then without any reason, the hero vanished like him, I already told twice who vanished.

    I don't know why this crap is called a masterpiece. What have other viewers found in this average movie but I don't find them. Very much overrated and overhyped. I think it is marketing (hype) which makes it very enjoyable for some masterpiece callers (or maybe paid reviewers and paid ratings).

    The hero has no quality of being a hero of a movie, I am not talking about the actor, I am talking about writing. How a hero who takes weed, kills animals, destroys jungle, makes chaos with the police, wrongfully.

    In some cases, the property owner has the right to get his property back. It is the villagers who wrongfully occupied the property.

    In one scene the 3rd generation son told his disabled son that, "there was a king who was disabled like you". It makes a point. Why a king would find happiness? What kind of nature of a person is this? Why would he find lots of happiness in an object? The villagers and the dancer cum demigod misguide the king and thus occupied his properties.

    Okay, let finish it, some I like are, the heroine, the jungle and some comedy.

    1 out of 5. Not recommended.
