Think about this.

Wham Bham Dham. There goes another English movie. Thats the truth most of the so called action has no action in it only sound and fire. And those actors need to be tied to string like puppets to make them act or to move them.
Really all those string effects are better done with puppets. But then there are good films and good directors in Hollywood also.
The fact is that I am not against action movies. It is just that the mediocrity of these films. There is nothing original about them. Ofcourse there are a lot of good action movies.
When compared to these films in all those french films the level of violence is so negligible and they have a definite class. The reason is simple if you dont have the class you dont sell.
For hindi movies everything starts and ends with a song. Now that is finished. Malayalam movies was said to be going through a trough the only reason being there were no new stories. It was all the same. And I believe Tamil film Industry is better left out. The mainstream tamil films are all usually just unbearable for me.
What me a cinema critic.
Well the fact is anyfilm which can entertain me is an average film. Which can make me think is a good film and which will make me to act is a superb film. Thats all I can say.

movies are meant to entertain the low IQ, low income person for whom the cinema is the only outlet for entertainment.

So we can expect only the quality which entertains such people.

Oh no. Thats a completely wrong approach. Movies are much much more than that.It is a medium. And as all mediums have certain limitations these too have those. And moreover dont judge people by the income they earn. There are a lot of people with high IQ for whom money doesnot mean anything. Remember that plus the fact the at times most commercially successful malayalam movies had a sense of quality about them.
