Red Sandal Wood was not a bad movie, it's just that it was told like a documentary; hence, we felt more like being educated than transported into a cinematic experience.
DELICIOUS
-The film opened up with a brief history of the red sandalwood smuggling business which helped us understand the craze behind this tree.
-It was also eye-opening to see the different unassuming parties involved in the smuggling business, giving us a comprehensive scope
BLAND
-Red Sandal Wood was not bad, it's just the way it was presented: casual acting, casual dialogues, casual scene sequence, and no character development.
Vetri kept the same look from start to finish, nothing memorable about his performance which was not surprising
-The scenario went by really fast without giving us time to digest or understand the characters, e.g. Prabha's mom and friends were only briefly shown.
Consequently, we couldn't identify with who Prabha was
Events moved rather quickly as soon as Prabha landed in Andhra Pradesh, it's as if the director was rushing to wrap the movie...😔
