The Mistress of Spices(2005)
An ethereal movie devoid of much logic. a film for dreamers, but ofcos a good dream. Ash looks delicious throughout the movie. Unfortunately i can't say the same for the male lead, Doug who looks very ordinary if not a bit revolting. Does this reflect a budget constraint, coz certainly ash deserves a better looking male lead. I was so much disappointed by Doug, that i hoped they wouldn't get together in the movie.
Technically, the movie is very impressive. The blurring effects and camera angles used almost give life to the inanimate spices. Great use of colours as seen bright red chillies with verdant stems and colourful heaps of other spices. In fact, i never knew we had so many types of spices. quite enlightening.
Concept 6/10
Performance 8/10
screenplay 7.5/10
technical 8.5/10
Overall 7.5/10
