KON- TIKI FILM REVIEW

KON-TIKI:- this is a story of human triumph -- over nature, over long odds, who conspire against those who dare to dream.

When anthropologist Thor Heyerdahl develops a theory that some 1500 years ago native Polynesians came originally from the Americas rather than Asia, his ideas are dismissed by the scientific community. Determined to prove that the ocean journey would be possible, Heyerdahl builds a wood raft, the Kon-Tiki, and sets sail with five companions from Peru to Polynesia (5,000 miles)in 1947 using primitive methods.

Oscar nominated norwegian film is about to have theatrical release soon in chennai.
If you love ''life of pi'' then Kon-tiki will be perfect watch!!

Flowers of War- chinese film review

Zhang Yimou's ''FLOWERS OF WAR''- A war film combines visual wizardry of ''saving private ryan & ''Hero''..based on Nanjing massacre brutal war led by Japanese on China.
Zhang yimou narrates story of'' American'' saving Group of chinese girl students & prostitutes seeking refuge at Church.
Highlight of the film is magical performance by Christine Bale..and of course some extraordinary images from cinematographer -zhao Xio ding.
Movie moves with horrifying images of brutal war with a touch of human drama.
Zhang Yimou should have made this as good as ''Gone with Wind''..marginally fails because of his visual poetry film suffers pain that ''most brutal massacre of Nanjing'' should be.. as in real history.

Film nominated for best foriegn language -Golden Globe Awards.
