- Quotes
Karikaalan: Land belonged to someone else before us, and it will belong to someone else after we're gone. You can't take even the dirt on your grave with you. So why act in such a way?
Haridev Abhayankar: What you have said, I know very well. But even if all I can get is the dirt on my grave, I will be very happy. Is there a problem?
Karikaalan: There is a problem! To me, land is life. To you, land is only power!
Haridev Abhayankar: And power is my life.

Featured review
Kaala is neither here nor there.
Kaala is neither here nor there. It does however, holds a few surprises in the form of Easwari Rao, Anjali Patil, Dileepan and Manikandan. Saving grace of the movie, you could say.
Kaala is neither a Rajini film nor Ranjit film (if you know what I mean). It feels as if they both had used each other as their 'vehicle' (again, if you know what I mean). Rajini's charisma consoles you when his portrayal fails to convince you, and that kind of reminds you why you would always continue to admire him. On a brighter side, you get to appreciate a toned down and a casual Rajini.
Kaala is neither a bad movie nor a good one. The intensity between the protagonist and the antagonist (Nana Patekar, another reason to watch this movie) was well crafted but all that build up leads to literally nothing. Especially, when the build up references the two characters to two opposing characters in an epic indian mythology. You would think that the effort put into building the conflict and twist in the plot would naturally lead to a practical (given the subject of the movie) and logical climax. Instead, what we got was an abrupt, rushed if you will, rather unsatisfying ending. It certainly was a different climax and miles ahead compared to the two previous movies.
Kaala is neither a movie to watch with your heart nor your intellect. But it sure deserves a watch, once.
