Hemlock Society- A must watch
Hemlock Society... In one word is Wow...

As expected Srijit Mukherji doesnt disappoint... Possibly his most mature and best work till date... The satire wrapped in dark humour amidst romance, life and death gives an entirely new dimension to Bangla cinema... To match the sky high standards he had set for himself after the success of his first two films and to deal with a genre never dealt with before and to come out worth flying colours is a testimony to the man's brilliance....

Koel Mullick carries the movie forward and though in a different role she doesn't disappoint... The veteran actors do a great job as well, especially Dipankar Dey... Sabyasachi and Bratya Basu put in absolutely brilliant five minute cameos... But Parambrata easily steals the show through another mature and brilliant performance... He has improved in each film...

As always, Music, Camera Work and Dialogues from the backbone ofthis man's film.. This director has a profound likeness for closeups and we have a lot of that here as well.. The dialogues are brilliant, classy and intelligent.. Homour and intelligent resounds.. Music blends into the movie almost naturally and lingers on your mind..

All in all a must watch... Hats off to the director... This man has taken Bangla Cinema to a better level... Certainly his latest venture in to the unexplored territory of balance between life and death reinforces that beleif... It may be inferred that the future of Bangla Cinema is in safe hands.
