ThiefHott Too much of everything
Steineded How sad is this?
RipDelight This is a tender, generous movie that likes its characters and presents them as real people, full of flaws and strengths.
Marva It is an exhilarating, distressing, funny and profound film, with one of the more memorable film scores in years,
Dexterr007 If you want to get the feeling of a Connected Anthology Hollywood movie like "21 Grams", then David is your thing. It is only a curse to such Director like Bejoy that good creations and movies doesn't get enough attention and somewhere the Indian moviegoers have pushed them backwards. David is just a brilliant piece and very bravely directed. It is not easy to hold the audience through 3 stories of 3 Davids of 3 different Eras. The best thing about this movie is the last few minutes when it ends. I won't write any spoiler and I hope every movie lovers watch it and appreciate it. Hats of to Bejoy Nambiar. From the very beginning it keeps your attention connected. Neil Nitin Mukesh just have given his career's Best Performance and so does others. The slowly uncovering Twists and Plots just leaves you awestruck. The only cons is that this movie moves a bit slowly. The story of Vikram especially proceeds very slow which might make you to skip it but that's where the movie has the final twist. Just watch this piece :)
bogomips-0 Movie start with good promise and much intriguing plot. But there are useless characters in the movie like - Lara Dutta, Tabu. There are filler scenes too, which do not contribute much to the plot or protagonist's character. Background score is fresh and well suited for most of the scenes. I liked the mafia segment the best.Bejoy made this one another formula films. He didn't stick to genre at all. I thought this was Crime, Drama, Thriller. But this had complete unnecessary comedy scenes which spoiled my complete mood. The biggest disaster was the David from Goa segment. Typical rom-com scenes, dreamy songs, filler-buster as Tabu.Overall it was disappointing.I had truly liked Shaitan, I think it was Anurag's touch.
yashwantsept I just came home after watching David and i can't help but keep thinking of the 2 davids.David is a film about two very different persons and their journey.Most of the viewers find that there was no connection between the two stories while i felt that it is indeed connected deeply and its real content lies within and it is to be understood, for those who do understand its the journey of a lifetime.David(Vikram) is a carefree youth who was dumped by Annie,his bride to be and he lives with that scar on his heart hating marriages.His best friend Peter informs him about his love whom he is going to marry and how that girl is deaf and dumb.Problem starts when David falls for his best friend's fiancé.David's dad as the wandering spirit and Tabu are quite good including Vikram. The only drawback is that Vikram is seen drinking in all the scenes from start to end and that is somewhat tiring.The second plot revolves around David(Jiva) who portrays an aspiring musician and at a later stage an angry youth searching for answers. Jiva is exceptional and this is his best performance till date.Nasser is very good and he evokes a sense of empathy when he come to terms with himself and with others.Overall this film is connected in the way how both David's initially refuse to accept the way of life and find themselves at troubled waters not being able to handle pain,how they come to terms with themselves and accept life forms a major part of the story which others describe as slow and a weak screenplay.In my opinion David is one of those films that is not to be missed and i recommend this to all of those who wish to see a meaningful movie which will touch your heart.
JOSEPH PIUS David (tamil) ( 2013 )The making. That was the main attraction of director Bejoy Nambiar's previous project : Shaitan. I was so excited to see that movie in a totally new making style. Bejoy Nambiar was added to my favorite film maker's list and I don't miss my favorites' creations. That's how I got in for 'DAVID' , the tamil version.Watched this in a local theatre near to my house. The main advantage of this is that there wont be a 'mass' presence to disturb the peaceful movie watching. It was released quite a few days back and I went for a noon show on a Tuesday. So there was no chance of a disturbance and I like it that way at times.'DAVID' is a sleek n simple tale of two persons with the same name. though their life is shown on a parallel mode, it happens during 2 different times(1999 & 2010). Jiva as the aspiring guitarist and Vikram as the so called 'unlucky' fisherman of goa, tabu as his friend,his mother,his dad; all were great delight to watch. Isha Shervani does her part decently and the good moments in this were in the Vikram's story.The album is awesome and I loved all the tracks in this. The film opens up with the theme song of 'DAVID' and that's very exciting to watch. The unconventional 'khoya khoya chaand' style (of Shaitan) is repeated in this also in a fight sequence. The way I understood , 'DAVID' is about the identity that each one of us have and why its not possible for one to be someone else. We all have a name, a soul and a character and we are supposed to do certain things which only we can do. So we shouldn't be trying to be someone else. If we did, then who is gonna do our part?? I felt that's what the movie is all about. The name 'DAVID' was just a random pick ; it could have be anyone , any name..
