Good but doesn't deserve the Oscar

Rating: 7/10 (30 March 2009)

I'm not sure how Oscars awarded to the movies. Now i have a deep doubt with the system itself.
I had always looked up to the Oscars as a body providing good justice to great movies - Is that not why they are there where they are now??? I'm still looking for some deep answers about this movie winning so many Oscars...
OK. I would not say the movie is bad. the movie is good but not great by any stretch of imagination. How can anyone compare this movie with the likes of Gandhi, Amadeus, My fair lady which too has won 8 Oscars each... I have seen better movies than this that were not even nominated for the Oscars...
I don't know what is wrong with the system? Anyway that's about my grief...
As far as the movie is concerned it is a very nicely scripted movie with decent acting and good music. Again, the music doesn't deserve an Oscar. AR Rahman does deserve an Oscar for whatever he had done earlier but for THIS????? NO WAY!!!! IT is not even close to anything worth mentioning as far as i'm concerned...
If at all you wanna watch this movie, i'd strongly recommend it but just be open enough to realize the facts...
