Robot-the mother of all movies


Finally an Indian movie that has outdone Hollywood and that too using their best technology! A great story that swings from the ridiculous to the sublime, "Robot" is an experience that is as exciting as a roller coaster ride in the best tradition of Hollywood action films.
Except for a few songs that make it a trifle too long and slows down the pace (you might like them if you enjoy Rajni waving his arms in the name of dance), "Robot" is an ode to the super stardom of Rajnikant who plays both Hero and villain and towards the end there are more a thousand replicas of him!
South Indian films have a reputation of being melodramatic and over the top but I found "Robot" quite believable in a strange way! Maybe they finally succeeded in making me loose my mind & and I guess that is a success of sorts!
