Instead, you get a movie that's enjoyable enough, but leaves you feeling like it could have been much, much more.

... View MoreThese are times when movie business is at it's lowest because of videos, DVds and so many other factors. This movie ran for seven weeks continuously in Toronto at the Woodbine chain of cinemas of the Rainbow group. Those who know cinema business and are objectively honest must say that this is a great achievement for a "made in the West Indies" movie. Many makers have tried but have failed for the lack of business incentives from authorities. Also because most cinemas catering to West Indian audiences are shutting down. Times have changed and so Rainbow Raani has veritably had it's share of achievements. Let us hope that other people can match this or do better.
... View MoreEvery filmmaker has a vision and style and that is what has to be respected about film-making. It is okay to like or dislike a film, the team behind the film appreciates the fact that people are viewing it. I personally feel that the performances in this film were justifiable towards the style and text of the script. The music was fabulous. Guyana has arrived on the world map of cinema and I'm sure more and better features are on their way. I think the beauty of the script is seeing so many different nationalities (colors of the rainbow) co-exist in one film. Of course there were imperfections, flaws and things that could have been better. No film is perfect and learning is more important. For those who like it, we thank you. For those who didn't, we respect your time and opinions.
... View MoreI was not sure what to expect from Rainbow Raani when I first saw it. The humor is offbeat, and the first 5 minutes can leave you perplexed as to what this film is actually about.However, there is a subtle beauty to the film that isn't apparent until after you've seen the whole thing. The plot moves slowly at first, giving you time to get a feel for the tropical culture. There are several subplots that connect a range of characters from Guyana and New York City. It culminates in some interesting twists by the end.If not for the film itself, the music alone makes it worth a watch.I recommend this to anyone with slightly eccentric tastes. You might not know what to make of it at first, but you'll be quoting it after you've seen it!
