The last 10 minutes just take you on such an emotional high.

The scenes which Kevin Bacon confronts his desire and faces his fears is sheer class. He befriends Robin, a little girl and slowly is drawn towards her. Eve ( The rapper) plays a good role in the movie. He is attracted to this no-nonsense woman (Kyra Sedgwick) and a relationship begins here. He stays ironically opposite a school playground and works in a lumberyard. Kevin Bacon ( resurfacing after a hiatus and Mystic River) has done a great job in portraying a sex offender who gets out on parole. It was also nominated for the grand jury prize at Sundance. Nicole Kassell, the director, has won a lot of critical acclaim in the Indie film circuit and this film has been exhibited in a whole host of festivals. The movie hits you somewhere between your solar plexus and your heart. See Raaja fans will be familiar with Vizhiyile Mani from Nooravadhu Naal, which was a rework of the same tune. This is one of those hidden Raaja Gems - Jotheyalli Jothi Jotheyalli from Geeta (a kannaqda film). He makes a half hearted attempt to tread the path between Hitting the Right Highs and Sounding Awful, eventually managing to be closer to the latter. The version with Vijay Prakash is not even passable. If I manage to leave that aside for a minute, I am sure I will singalong with the song. That's The hardcore Raaja fan in me talking. It is strange to listen to a familiar number which sounds like a stranger now. Every time you hear the opening notes of the tamil song with SPB deciding to mildly exercise his golden vocal cords, you are bound to get goosepimples. If you listen to the promo, the musicv might as well be for a small ad film.īut, there is no soul in this song. That is just Mandram vandha from Mouna Raaga redux for the 21st century - a little faster starts off on a higher note more instruments With peppy Shreya Ghoshal. Liril from Geetanjali, Kissan from Nizhalgal & Alaigal Oivathillai, LG PLasma Gold from Nenjathai Kiladhey and the ever popular Idea ad from Pallavi Anuipallavi.īut, for the time being, let me assume that people know their Raaja music. WIll Raaja makes it big in bollywood with this soundtrack?įor the junta who do not understand Raaja's Demigod status and who have not grown up on his music, this album will be refreshing.

I just had questions when I heard the songs.
