Self-important, over-dramatic, uninspired.

At first rather annoying in its heavy emphasis on reenactments, this movie ultimately proves fascinating, simply because the complicated, highly dramatic tale it tells still almost defies belief.

There's no way I can possibly love it entirely but I just think its ridiculously bad, but enjoyable at the same time.

A terrific literary drama and character piece that shows how the process of creating art can be seen differently by those doing it and those looking at it from the outside.

I saw this movie recently at an art gallery movie theater. This is a good movie. It is about family and growing older but it isn't sentimental or sappy. While the relationship between father and son isn't completely resolved it does make good progress. Lighting and color are subtly used to show mood and story progression. Possible romance and old romance are introduced but not shown as the solution to the problem. This isn't everyone falls in love and everything is now resolved. Life is more complicated than that and this film shows that without being depressing and hopeless. It is for adults and about adults. Sendhil and Roshan are believable as father and son. And yes, as Sendhil tweeted once, the cat wins!
