Logic Lapse

Hi ,
All would have watched movies but have you ever thought about the following LOGIC lapse .

#1 During fight sequence the villain group has many ppl, say around 20 ppl.It may be hero's ability to fight all of them but when hero fights, he fights with only 1-3 ppl at a time,at that time what will other villain group people do?why dont all twenty people attack him at same time??

#2 In film where there are dual role.It is only by looks the character are similar,but is it necessary both should have same
voice,slang.wont people have different voice slang ?

#3 How come a person who slept all night is about to get up with bright face with lipstick and without any hair being disturbed?

#4 Usually In scenes where car brake is not working.
Cant the driver take the foot away from accelerator or turn off the engine off.
Why should it always end up in major accident?

#5 By seeing one good act of hero ,how does heroine tend fall in love?If that is true many would be having so many love affairs?

Just think for a moment.You will realize ,what you wouldnt have before.More to continue.Not only logical lapse,movie reviews and must watch film list every week ,would also be apart of this blog.Movie review is from my point of view,it will suggest you what kind of movie it is ,the pros and cons. Opinions are always welcome.It starts from this New YeAR.

I like the fourth one. I have personally experienced it and it is a reflex action (at least in my case) to switch off the engine immediately.

if you show all realastic scenes ...then some one like u will ask why should we see a movie with everthing so real .......people need something exciting ..if a car slows down without a accident ,,,it is not action ...if a girk wakes up ugly in the morning ..people will get irritated...if all 20 jumps on hero ...it will be like a kabadi match ...

Hi one100,
Thanks for you valuable comment..
do watch fancy movies,some things help us what to do and other things tell us what not to do.these logic lapse help us what not to do..

Hi sethuraman ...
Thanks for you valuable comment..
yea may be if they are not able to do reflex action,so only they might be heroes.

Hi dave,
Thanks for you valuable comment..
movies need not be realistic but still there are some basic logics.for instance ,if they portray hero has ability to fight 20 ppl means we can accept but what they really show is one by one villain comes together ,what will other 19 ppl do at that time?THINK

Kedhar said...

I appreciate your distaste towards cinema devoid of logic.. I share such views too. Valid points... However your written english is grammatically pathetic.. improve on that part and your blog will get better...

Anonymous said...

good one dude... but there are too many to list i guess :P

Sivaram K P said...

hi kedhar,
your comment taken into consideration..will improve my grammer as soon as possible...

hi viswanath,
i know that there are numerous logic lapse ,so it will be a series of post .so it will continue after some time.

Anu said...

logic lapse_hmmm,thats one of the major perspective which has to be taken into consideration in most of the tamil movies..

p.s:Especially Vijay's Movies.He being in the industry itself is a logical lapse according to me.. he he he... !:P

Good one shiva.. Keep going!

Hoping the blog wouldn't be biased only to Rajinikanth,Ajith and Dhanush movies! :D:D (you know wat i mean)

All d best!

Happy new year! :)

Prabu said...

Hmm yah logic lapse is always part of industry its very much pronounced in targets very people education levels are low they accept fantasy as reality the very concept of heroism in movies is basic killing of logic if logic based hero survives i am sure it must be educated masses. Who to blame ? as long crowd exists to cheer when hero rides two wheeler by leg these non sense happens, On personal opinion dont encourage such films or socitey needs to mature on reasoning knowledge by education i guess the former is easiest...

Dev Payakkal said...

Kedar you are taliking about Good English ...if you see your blog , you are usinig the word "Pathetic" too many times ..try to search the word "pathetic" using "control F" ..Please dont stand under water and comment about other legs..truly PATHETIC

Dev Payakkal said...

Kedar
In your birthday idli blog you have used the word "cheapest" internationally "cheapest " is not the right word...it should have been "inexpensive" .....cheap means really cheap...

Shadows said...

Well.. I would say
they are reality based
u forget one point

Films are not reality
except for how the character resembles the viewer in character or something which is personal to life

the duty of a director is to connect to the audience.. the way he connects depends. Just like fairy for children, a hero hitting a 100 villains is acceptable.

and the car sequence is dramatic.. so no comments

Unknown said...

most of these things keep happening in tami cinema alone da... esp the first one you said whr the hero fights against so many baddies n nothing happens to him.. so predictable and without logic..

Sivaram K P said...

To Anu,prabhu,shadow & iced ,
thanks for your valuable comments.
Hi anu,
i will guarantee that my personel liking wont affect my take on issues.

hi prabhu,
hope changes happen for the better.

hi shadow,
reality is different from logic i think so.wishes must be realistic enough to be practical.

hi iced,
this exist in all cinema...

Unknown said...

janani....
hi shiva wat u told is right but no one will agree with this because ppl wont under stand realism so easily
very good try
pls consider abt ajit movies all so
all d best
just continue it

freakymonk said...

hmmm logic lapses.... As far as i can see ... if u are leading ur life like movies these points need to be taken...might be in certain points illustrated by you might happen in real life those are things which we need a brief upon... and since u have taken this topic seems u are one of the good observers and who basically goes into the movie.... just relax enjoy and get going on with ur life...movies are just things to relax ourselves..nothing more than that...since life is full of exceptions there are things in these as well..

Sundararaman said...

do not blame the movie makers .. blame the tasteless audience...!

people demand it.. so they get it...
people enjoy it.. so film makers do it...

ditch the audience first !

ANAND N.K said...

Yeh..accept your points and your observations...but certain things are inseparable...like wat u said... they are part of cinema...here comes a great transition between reality and reelity....something needed for a cinema engine move

Sivaram K P said...

To janani,freaky,sundar,& anand
Thanks for you valuable comment..

Hi janani,anand,& sundar,
Hope for better change

Hi freaky,
perhaps films are to be entertaining,but what i am trying to say is it shud be believable...

Dev Payakkal said...

Place a camera in your neighbours hosue and start recording for 3 hours ..what do you get patabhi mama wearing veshti and realastically reading news paper , pankajam maami cooking sambar ....subbudu playing "pandi" ....all realastic ..now make a 2.5 hrs film and put in a theatre ..even patabi , pankajam and subbudu wil not watch it ....WHY ? cause it is not interesting !!!! It is Tough to be a director ..Please dont post comments on their hard work !!!

Sujith said...

Hey guys ,
why do you ppl say realism is not interesting?
Havent you guys seen any "based on true story" movies? Ofcourse they even those movies have some fiction. But they are very close to reality ;)
Check out imdb.com (goofs) -
You can see what all mistakes film makers do!

Cheers
Sujith

vasanth said...

i like the topic u blogged ..yeah its common when one do mistakes one when one notices it.... but make mistakes adds reality in some sense... logic lapse in continuity of a film or trebile mistake such as films like troy ans pirates are unacceptable but considering point of reviewing film its not only neccesary to pinpoint the logic lapse and make sure its never follows again or noticed again..

hey ill tell u y tamil cinema has a fantasy touch always the mass public in india are still nt generally well off or at least struggle for their well being. thats the reason they hate reality & ikle to see a hero like them doin extrodinary thins & see beautiful women & enjoy. try to be in their place when the vieweres own life's real experience itself is harsh,he wants a fantasy like diversions. he enjoys by dancing for a song. its only because we are well off & dont have to struggle every day that we think reality is kind of a interesting & natural phenomenon

Sivaram K P said...

hi dave ,
hard work should be appreciated .
hi vvk,
always think for the best.
hi suresh,
as long as fantasy doesnt mislead people it is well and good.some try to do what their stars try to do..

thanks for your valuable comments suresh,vvk,sujith,dave.nice

dileep said...

change it to indian commercial movies!!

Anu said...

he he he he!!! YES Siva... very true. Some try to do wat their stars do..

I've Heard people Saying that they Smoke because Rajinikanth does it! :P Audeiences are sick!

Unknown said...

there ia another major logical flaw guys!
in many movies(read Indian) of yore(70s,80s & even a few 90s ones)
during a climax scene or chase scene while it is supposed to be happening in night(at one point they show it is night),the way it is showed is like it happens partly in day n partly in night for ex..in a chase scene...the one chasing is in night and the one being chased is in day.now how come that's possible??the chase climax scene of the movie 'laawaris' is a case in point.it's very commom in numerous movies..
