Watched Yeto Vellipoyindi Manasu today@LEPL INOX
After
the tremendous success of Ye Maya Chesave in Telugu, Gautham Vasudev
Menon comes again after 2 yrs with “Yeto Vellipoyindi Manasu”,
lets see how it goes..The story is all about the transformation of
love at various phases of Life – School, College, Career. The
director succeeds in showing the ON & OFF complexities of LOVE.
Gautham Menon is know for his intense and natural Love stories. This
film for me, seemed like an extension to Ye Maya Chesave..
Well, straight to the point...I feel that the movie is Average. The story line is wafer thin, but the way, director narrated it, is so natural and is easily connected to everyone's lives.
Punchline:
Feel good love & romance story
Highlights:
- Production values of Photon Kathaas are good.
- Cinematography by MS Prabhu & Om Prakash are eye pleasing.
- Songs are choreographed well and blending into the story and narration.
- You will love Samantha's histrionics and action. Especially in the scenes when she was in the college. She needs a special mention in this aspect.
- Nani is brilliant and natural as always.
- Krishnudu has a meaty role yet again after Ye Maya chesave.
- Illayaraja's songs were good on screen
- Maintaining small details are very good and director has stick to them very well right from beginning to the end of the flick.
- Lyrics of Ananth Sriram are meaningful.
- Climax is dealt good, the way the director treats it, adds the tinge of maturity to the Climax.
- Goutham menon is know for his intense love stories and love scenes, people easily connect to such moments in their real life. This might add mileage to the movie, and the movie is right captioned – “This could be your Love story”.
Lowlights:
- Very slow paced narration.
- First song is a mere waste of time.
- Background can be much better, instead of using just only songs again.
- Editing is inconsistent.
- Movie could have been trimmed a bit in order to reduce the running duration.
My
Suggestion: Yeto Vellipoindi Manasu is a feel good Love and Romantic
entertainer provided if you can snail walk with the narration of the
flick. Of course, it is a multiplex genre movie like Gautham Menon's
earlier flicks & I doubt its run at the box office for a long
time.
Well
coming to the rating, it is 3/5 (This is my personal opinion on this
particular movie - U watch the movie and decide for yourself).
