Movie Review- Sentivirus





If I had to summarize the review of Sentivirus in one word I would say “RUSHED”. It feels movie was made by Dhurmus Suntali just for the sake of raising enough funds for making Gautam Buddha Rangashala. The movie is based basically on the socio-political drama.

Let’s get in to the plot. Dhurvaram played by Sitaram Kattel is a politically involved young man who is firm with his ideologies and loyalty towards his party. A firm supporter and an active and strong party member of a party called Jana Utthan party, Dhurvaram is the party’s life. Conflict arises when his father in law Rajaram Poudel also stands in the election happening in the same area. His conflict with his ideology, his internal tension with his wife and its rushed resolution is what movie is comprised of.
The screenplay feels rushed, the poor writing for a big feature from the mini comedy sketches series writer duo Kumar Kattel and Deepak Acharya can be clearly seen. Ram Babu Gurung has done a decent job, he does not outshines himself from his previous movies so this movie can be considered among his below mediocre ones. All the technical aspects are average. The good thing about the movie is the acting of Sitaram Kattel aka Dhurmus. This man impresses us leaving back his caricaturish role of Dhurmus and delivers a fresh performance altogether. Sentivirus marks his return on big screen after woda number 6 and this man single handedly carries the entire movie upon his shoulder.  The supporting casts however feels wasted, actors like Dayahang Rai and Wilson Bikram Rai are just there to level up the star power of the movie. Other actors like Kunjana Ghimire and Rajaram Poudel have decent performances. There is no proper resolution of conflicts showcased in the movie. The final resolution culminating to show us the reality of what Dhurmus Suntali foundation is, doesn’t do justice to all the events that took place before.

We have seen this kind of story and premise Sentivirus tries to showcase so the movie does not feels fresh at all. A sentimental man who is first regarded as a virus but later redeems himself after big setback and ideological fallacies finally becoming an antivirus or Sentivirus. If you want to watch a decent socio-political drams with very few gags, and also want to support to raise the funds for making Rangashala, this is the movie for you.

How Quintein Tarantino directs suspense..

Quinten Tarantino gives us that art of suspense from the first scene of the movie. In this scene a German Nazi Jew Hunter “Hans Landa” is interrogating Monsieur “LaPadite”, a farmer. We can clearly see that Landa is a fluent in multiple languages, polite and well-mannered but all that are just a superficial traits to show others while deep inside he is a cruel and sadistic person. All these information by just showing us a simple conversation, what Tarantino often delivers well “Show, Don’ tell”. Here Landa, clearly exposes his purpose of visit that is here to search and hunt for Jewish family. During the initial conversation we are not certain of the interrogation and do not get fully immersed as it is rather uncertain from the body language and mannerism of LaPadite that he may or may not be giving refuge to any Jewish family. Now when the camera slowly pans to the underground shot of the hiding family, we now begin to experience the real tension. If you can hear properly befo...

Trance (2020) Malyalam - Movie Review

Trance (2020) We all have been adhered in some way or other to our own form of conceptualized deity. On devoting our dedication towards our holy gods, the middleman calling themselves proprietary god-men who boasts about inheriting supreme powers to directly contact god and claiming to eradicate any human problems are constantly ripping of devotees off their money and belief. 2020 psychological Malayalam movie Trance is one such movie which blatantly evinces the company some people are running to cash in to the beliefs of gullible and religious people. Fahadh Faasil plays a small town motivational speaker Viju Prasad who dreams of becoming a successful motivational speaker someday. Having a rough childhood along with his delusional brother, Viju finds himself in a situation where he is approached by few white collar people to work for them as the face of the Christian pastor who performs staged miracle hence convincing devotees into the greater scam of buying their holy w...
