Movie Review: Sketch - Tamil movie



I wonder why the Tamil movie SKETCH which opened worldwide last week is having such low ratings. This Vikram starrer ( actor who is having a hard time with Box offices for quite some time) ticks all the boxes, Family drama, Action, Social message, performances, Weak but some comedy one liners and once watchable story line and sequences.

I was discouraged to watch the film as all the leading daily papers report the movie to be a waste of time questioning the actors choice of film and roles he portray. but after watching the Movie I found it to be acceptable and deserves much more improved reviews. Wonder what were the expectations of the people who wrote the review.

I am not going to further elaborate the movie and bring up with my own version of review but I am concerned with the kind of criticism people generate on their capacity. I believe the movie reviewer ( I don't know what qualifications is required for such a person) need to restrain himself from atleast starting the review with one liners like " waste of time" and so on. The reviewer may explore the attributes of the film and unfold them to the potential audience because the expectation of people or the approach of an individual to a film will be different.

In a nutshell, reviews should stop rating the film. Even if they want it should be a left as a vote. People who watch movie could come and vote their choice. Audience makes the movie a Hit or flop and not the reviews.
