It wasn't as impressive I thought it would be actually. Too many cliches. And unnecessasrily subtle. Subtle to the extent that you wonder did we miss anything? I also was uncomfortable but that was with the casting choice and the dialogues. Anyways, don't really want to pan the movie left, right and centre. You liked it. I kinda disagree! :) Arundhati:

It made me uncomfortable, and that's where its real strength lies- the ability to shake you out of your comfor zone, and shove the reality full throttle- the mark of a great movie :) I saw ‘Water’ over the winter break, and it was powerful… and unrelenting.

The movie is very well made, with lot of detail given to show the beautiful backdrops of Sri lanka. The movie moves at slow pace but its never boring. It always keeps you guessing about the next scene and the overall content is well presented. The great thing about this movie is even though the characters in the movie are so wrenched with poverty and sadness they never cry. It almost feels like they have taken it for granted just like what happens in real life. The movie caters to my liking other than some 5 mins just before the end. I would rate the movie ****.
