Raja Sen
by S N on Apr 15, 2008 06:41 PM

I have been reading Raja Sen's reviews...To me he looks like very knowledgable..Any movie he reviews he can easily relate or tell from which hollywood or sometime french flick from where it is copied or inspired..
His english and narration also makes the reading interesting but sometime boring coz of the length.. He gets carried away while playing with words and exactly doesnt tell whether the film is bad / good, coz those views are left to the individual to judge.. I many times doesnt agree with his ratings though.. e.g Sarkar he gave less rating but the movie was excellent.. For Nishabd/Eklaya he gave good ratings, and I agreed with his ratings even though the films were flop.. I think he gave high rating to OSO which I didnt agree ..these r few I can recollect..but by and large he comes out with points which probably other reviewer cannot visualise.. Other reviewers simply either trach or prise the movie/actor etc.. but Raja does some investigation as from where it is inspired, how it is narrated etc.. which I belive r qualities only few can possess.. in fact all Oscar nominated movies are reviewed by him and I guess no other reviewer wud have made justice to reviwing those movies..A reviewer has too see something beyond normal man just like Photographer can see something in a photograph which he/she cliks which a normal individual can not..that sets the class from mass apart..
So Raja, if u r reading this...it is good going Keep it up..
