movie review before sunrise

                                                                How much time it takes to fall in love with a girl and give the first kiss ?  2 hours ....If you dont believe me see the movie Before sunrise .  Its a movie set in the beautiful backdrop of vienna . The male and female protagonists travel in a train as complete strangers and they see an older couple quarrel and they break into a conversation starting with that topic . Soon the guy has to disembark at Vienna train station to catch his flight the next day . And the charming and dreamy guy convinces the girl to also disembark with him and since the whole night is there they walk and talk the entire night .

If there is a movie where the infatuation or puppy love is shown in full glory this is it .  Having seen romances develop over time and over shared joys and sorrows it was a different experience to watch a true infatuation developing on screen . Its nowhere near the love of movie " frida" http://drharoonhmarikar.blogspot.in/2013/06/frida-movie-review.html or the love in "casablanca"  which is about true love the ideal which is selfless though started initially by boy meets girl  . But this movie focusses on the boy meets girl part and you can see the physical attraction carrying them through the puppy love process .
Dont assume this appaappan is against the puppy love but seeing this movie makes me realise how much the chemistry and the hormones shuts off the mind from reality and how easy it is to fall in love .

Ok ,,, movie review again .. Usually my personal ratings of movies have a fairly good correlation with the movie ratings in movie review sites like imdb.com but here though the review sites have given a high rating i personally found this movie just average .  The hero and heroine were beautiful people and it was nice to see the flirtiness developing into puppy love ( i love and also hate that term dont ask me why)  and the backdrop of Vienna (a city i have visited )  was the most beautiful part of the movie  .  Story and screenplay i found just average ..

So to sum up .... see the movie and enjoy it . Unlike me u may like it so much because i am not a romantic anymore and never had been :)   But seriously this movie is puppy love in real time ...See freida and casablanca and this movie and tell me why i tell this movie is average ..
