awfully bad.
10 October 2012 | by (Upmarket Residences of Rajagiriya) – See all my reviews

I made the mistake of paying to watch this film. It is almost dreadful. I say almost because the director has shown that he is able to employ some useful examples of cinematography but almost everything else about this film was bad. Bad script, bad acting, bad plot, utterly disappointing!

However, the director has shown some promise, and having seen (and been impressed by) his earlier work I am confident that he can improve the quality of his work without having to resort to churning out bilge like this that impresses no-one. The film was billed as a gentle comedy, but i failed to see the humour. Indeed other members of the audience were laughing at times, but I can only put this down to the fact that the cinema allowed its customers to drink alcohol during the film!
