12th fail
what the actual fuck this movie is actually kino
it's an underdog story of this guy who comes from a poor village, which cheated their way through school and they go to the city to basically become the equivalente of a police officer in india. Thing is that the exam is like stupidly hard
The actual story itself is largely exagerated and not something that could happen in reality even if it's based on a true story, no human being can work 15 hours, study 6 hours and sleep for 3 for a year. You would actually die of overworking. But what the story nails are the feelings. This is one of the most motivational films i've seen in my life, and even if the synopsis of the movie tells you the ending, you still feel really happy for the protagonist at the end.
Again, like the only other indian movie i've seen, RRR, if you look at this film "objectively" and try to spot plot holes or stuff that doesn't work like that or try to make a very concese story, this movie absolutely does not hold, but that is not the goal of the movie. This is all about the energy and the vibes. I don't know if all indian cinema is like this, but I really do not mind it, they're enjoyable from start to end.
The cinematography and acting are peak. This movie uses a lot of shots that lasts like 3 minutes with no cuts and there featuring a lot of characters and movement. The camera movement is very dinamic. For the entire first part of the movie there is basically no shot where there is a fixed camera. This is less common the longer the movie goes for, but I think just having these incredibly well done shots at the start of the movie just sets you in the right mood to enjoy the rest of the movie
This is not a movie like the human condition where there is a just a really banger plot that makes you think a lot and stuff. It's just a really enjoyable movie to watch
