I was quite excited to watch F.A.L.T.U. because I like Bollywood movie. But this one was a little different from the one that I know, I am used to the traditional Indian movie with the traditional dance.
The first
song at the beginning set the tone of the movie. It is a comedy. The movie try to be a comedy but at the same time with a serious meaning. Unfortunately this attempt is not very successful. The little sounds they keep playing during the entire movie to create a funny mood do not help to take it seriously. The movie takes a long time to arrive at the point that they want to demonstrate: “Children are never useless.It's just that they are use less“. However The music and the songs are
really good, I really appreciate them, especially the one during the contest. I think it is my favourite part of the movie.
The very
good point about the movie is the way the Indian education system is see. They emphasize
the contradiction and the absurdity of the system. Why they let student leave school with very low grade when they perfectly know that they won't be accepted. The movie also shows the
anxiety of young Indians when they fail and also the pressure the society and their
parents put on them. India is facing a real problem with the increasing number of suicide among students. Maybe they must change the system, university should not be the only choice. All students are not meant for university. t learn what they really want to do.
