JIJI2057 This definitely won't be everybody's cup of tea it's interesting to watch the different styles bounce between each other and animation and the jazz music was actually kind of an interesting touch I like this movie though I know a lot of people won't like it I think it's just gonna be able to one's personal taste if you like it Rated 3.5/5 Stars •  Rated 3.5 out of 5 stars 03/09/23 Full Review Audience Member it was fun take! Only a couple of the Anne Hathaway numbers felt a little "shoe horned in". I especially like the chorus of three folks who didn't quite recall all the details of the myths Rated 3.5/5 Stars •  Rated 3.5 out of 5 stars 01/28/23 Full Review Audience Member Two parts to the film - songs, story 1. The choice of the songs is impressive, and it quite precisely fits the story running in the background 2. Story - Two parallel ones running simultaneously and confluence to a point in the end which was pretty amazing. The narrators seemed quite underinformed - deliberately or otherwise- about Ramayana which does annoy. The way they question characters is unheard in India and is mentally stimulating. Rated 3.5/5 Stars •  Rated 3.5 out of 5 stars 01/21/23 Full Review Audience Member Some people might think I am not shedding enough light here, but yes, there is not one flawed note or one false button pushed in the one-hour-twenty-one-minutes long crowdpleaser 'Sita Sings the Blues' directed by Nina Paley. Not only does the diligent filmmaker express a distinctive voice through stunningly animated visuals, she also delivers sass and spunk by reinventing a classical epic in which the poet Valmiki expressed in an understatement a feminist and grounded, curvy and blazing, sad and optimistic character with right note and music. This film is a perfection. This gem shouldn't be missed at the cost of any movie this year and I recommend you just don't miss it. I go with five stars for Sita sings the Blues'. It's an inexplicable and brilliant triumph for cinema. Rated 5/5 Stars •  Rated 5 out of 5 stars 02/25/23 Full Review Audience Member Grandiosa interpretación del Ramayana por parte de Nina Paley.
