Review of Ship of Theseus (2012) by Gaurav S — 25 Jul 2013

If you abstain from intellectual cinema, avoid this cerebral masturbation. Indie Indian cinema finally comes of age with Ship of Theseus. Divided into three parts beautifully interconnected, SOT is a well written, well shot, and a well performed film.

The second story in particular left a long lasting impact. The long-walking conversational single shots were just brilliant. But somehow I felt Gandhi took his own liberty with some really stretched scenes, he should rather have added some more conversations.

Like the conversations between the monk and the boy, or the verbal fight by the visually impaired girl for a picture she clicked left a deep impact. And the last story is like a perfect dessert to a wonderful meal, it's more of a dark-humor infused satire.

Overall, it's an excellent film, bt could have been even better with some more layers!
