| User ReviewHim CClear messages with good storyline. But I cannot say it's a very stunning movie, as I expected before I watched it. |
| User ReviewMichèle FAlways fascinated to see films shot in limited sets, along with a large number of actors make it exceptionally hard for any director to succeed. ã??ã?? In Kanikosen we saw another experiment of Sabu. Without his favorite running scenes, constant adjustments of ideas that eventually revealed his underlying message was done in a way like peeling off layers of an onion. By shading light on (or highlighting) a particular character - guys whom aren't even the leading roles but randomly picked on set at times - to patch together clues to solve his riddle; the story is well-told. ã??ã?? While I saw great attempt Sabu has made in experimenting with storytelling techniques, unfortunately he has deprived the viewers to relate to his characters (they're either killed or left out once their lines are said); a good number of viewers were even bored away before the 2nd half started... Sabu could've been so much better... |
| User ReviewArum Padma OIt was a major disappointment from my end because it had such potential. The major problem is that it didn't know whether it wanted to be serious or funny. The fact that it was also like a slow-burner didn't help. It does pick-up considerable towards the end but by then you're almost tired of waiting for something to happen. |
| User ReviewRay TEssentially a Marxist tract with a dated story line as exploited workers on a crab fishing and processing boat are trapped in an oppressive work environment and learn to rise up against their masters. At times comedic and other times brutal it was unable to transcend a simplistic premise. But it did make me hungry for crab. |
| User ReviewManami Kweird ass movie. crabby ship workers gets treated badly, wanna commit suicide but failed. enter some russian dancing, movie ends with buncha guys carrying union flags. |
