Ramaa - The Saviour Review

We often feel amazed that in India only a certain section like Kids is targeted while planning to make a movie unlike in Hollywood where a kid movie can simply cut across the barrier and even made teens and adults to go for it, convincingly.

With Raama- The Savior, the movie tries to venture out in to a territory not explored before by a Hindi Movie; Video Gaming.

So, do all the gimmicks get its due or not? Means what is the final word for Raama- The Savior?

It' s not at all a convincing fare and fails to churn out as what had been planned in the script in the first place.

Let' s see the kinky story of the movie in the words of Taran Adarsh, a noted film critic and what does he thinks of the performances.

It' s a story of six kids - Rohan, Riddhi, Kunal, Komal, Sameer and Saanjh. The kids play a newly launched video game - The Last Battle - and while playing the game, they suddenly find themselves on an isolated island. The children, while exploring the island, run into trouble. Riddhi is attacked by a giant, Wali [Khali], but is rescued by Ramaa [Sahil Khan], who lives in this jungle all alone. Danger arrives in the form of a boat commanded by Kali with a small army of mercenaries and a scientist-assistant Samara [Tanushree Dutta]. The rest of the tale depicts the fight between the good and the evil.

It' s the writing that plays a spoilsport and doesn' t do justice to the concept and the efforts invested in the project. Let me explain. To start with, there should have been some detailing on the protagonist [Sahil Khan], who comes across as a mix of Tarzan and Conan the Barbarian. He has the ability to connect via telepathy with humans and animals, we' re told, but what is he doing in the secluded island-jungle? Besides, what' s Wali' s [Khali] connection with Ramaa? Also, why were they fighting in the first place? Is Vali human or demon or spirit? Tanushree' s character isn' t well penned either. She belongs to the evil camp, but crosses over to Ramaa' s side without any valid justification.

Sahil Khan exhibits his physique to the optimum, but the screenplay doesn' t offer him scope to exhibit histrionics. Tanushree surprises in action scenes. She' s wonderful. The new villain, Taleb, looks ferocious. Khali is okay. The kids, all of them, are super confident.

On the whole, Raama- The Savior is not at all a convincing flick.

From the box-office point of view, the movie shall end as a disaster.

Rating: * out of 5 (Flop)

Verdict: Even the real Raama can not help this movie fro tanking. Best Avoided!
