Review of Summer 2007

Summer 2007 (2008)
7/10
An eye opener with a message...
17 January 2009
Kudos to script writer and director for this gr8 and worthy endeavor. I started the movie with no expectation, but ended it with heavy hearted and droplets in my eyes. The movie never came into the limelight and reason probably being the serious message and no songs around trees. Movies with big guns are selling like hot cakes in India, but such movies with a off beat script and comparatively low star cast never get attention. The movie is based on the miserable life of farmers in an Maharastra Village. Farmers are hand to mouth and indebted to Some Jamidar, who is a cruel and heartless man. His son exploits farmers and rapes their wives, assault them brutally and kills them at time. Five funky ERP (Extra Rich People) students from some medical college unintentionally becomes part of all this. The movie draws a very sensitive topic of suicides of farmers in India in pretty nice and logical style. All actors did their bit quite nicely and Ashutosh Rana was commendably gr8. Over all transformation of movie from fun life in college to the reality ground in some village is surly an eye opener. I recommend the movie to all for the message in the movie.
