Sara's

It is a really good movie, Jude Antony (director) has done a great job here for presenting the judgements, social exclusions, ridiculous parent expectations and society and its beliefs when it comes to pregnancy and parenthood all in fun watching .Regardless of their gender, everyone should watch Sara's as it is not only informative but entertaining as well. Ignore the negative comments here (it's clear that problem is with them).

A story of the struggles faced by an aspiring young woman who wants to be a director. When it comes to family,loves and kids, it will be more stress than our very own dream. This explains it very well. A clean and neat way of showing the struggles is the noticeable and appreciatable. Here they have took the route of not too emotional and so easy ways to show their plot. Thats good but not a good enough. In between somehow film struggled to move further. Thats all the flaws i have noticed so far. Otherwise, its a decent watch.

Sara's is a good attempt at making the Indian audience understand that reproduction at the end of the day is a woman's choice. However, the movie just seems like a movie starting off as exaggerated and then meandering along the lines of reality. Seems quite artificial. Anna Ben is alright, but seems miscast and Sunny Wayne as always doesn't look the part as is the case in most movies. It's a decent watch, but nothing special.

The best thing about Sara'S is that it stays focused on its titular character Sara (Anna Ben) and her perspective, over all else. Director Jude Anthany Joseph is back with yet another simple, feel-good family comedy touching upon a delicate topic - that of (choice in) childbirth. And once again, we have well-written characters being played by neat performers. While Anna Ben and Sunny Wayne form the lead pair of Sara & Jeevan, a host of family-member characters also take up screen-space.

The best among those are writer Benny P Nayarambalam (in his acting debut, playing Sara's sweet dad) and Mallika Sukumaran (playing Jeevan's overbearing mom). Wayne's performance felt fine in the first half but a bit plastic in the second. Anna Ben continues to impress with her uniquely cute mannerisms and puts up a serious face when needed. After a breezy first hour with equal dollops of romance, situational humour (that works in parts), and a Shaan Rahman score, writer Akshay Hareesh brings up the dilemma. Sara never wanted to have kids. Now, she's forced to choose between her budding filmmaker career and having a child.

Sara's problems, most of which arise owing to her gender, are realistically portrayed in the movie. That being said, her character still comes with many privileges - a doting understanding dad, a swanky apartment, and the lack of a financial struggle, to mention a few. In reality, the issues faced by women are multitudinous. In its journey to a predictably positive finale, Sara'S also gives memorable arcs to characters like Anjali (Meera Nair), a seasoned actress. Certain clichés such as the presence of Siddique's character only to provide decisional closure (oh there's more, plenty more!) and Vineeth Sreenivasan humming Shaan's melodies simply can't be avoided, I guess. A movie star seething on set is yet another tedious trope.

Felt as a flop effort!

Om shanti oshana had a lot of wonderful moments,thought provoking and ultimately entertaining .This one has a shaky script,scenes appear dramatic and many cast seems misfit.
