Madras Cafe
is based on India’s involvement in Sri Lankan civil war and it’s aftermath. Although
a commercial movie, the film has a realistic feel to it. Some of the
documentary footage of the genocide in Sri Lanka has been used in the movie. Movie
depicts bloodbath, but violence is not repulsive. There is a steady development
of story and action, gives a Hollywood Movie feel. For a change no… Bollywood
musical extravaganza, romance or comedy used for entertainment.
John
Abraham’s personality takes the movie forward, but John and Nargis seriously
needs to focus on their acting and expressions. Rashi Khanna’s acting is
passable. The supporting cast which acted as Sri Lankan’s did a good job.
On the
whole, John Abraham has succeeded to create an impact with his production
debut. A great must see political thriller.
