Siddartha (Dhritiman Chatterjee) is forced to discontinue his medical studies due to unexpected and brutal death of his father. He has to now find a job in stead. In one job interview, he is asked to name the most significant world event in the last ten years. His reply is 'the plain human courage shown by the people of Vietnam', instead of the expected - man landing on moon. The interviewer asks is he is a communist. Needles to say that he does not get the job.
He reaches a coffee shop where he is offered to work for the communist party. When he does not show any interest the party leader tells him about an opening for a medical representative. To escape from the heat and have a snooze, he goes in to a cinema. As a government propaganda newsreel is being shown before the feature, a bomb explodes in the cinema hall. In the stampede that follows, Siddartha, breaks his watch. He goes to a watchmaker but he cannot afford the repairs.
Waiting to cross the road, he notices a sexy girl. He drifts back to his days as a medical student in a flashback. The professor is explaining anatomy of female breast. Many flashbacks and dreams occur to Siddartha through the film.
On his way to hostel, he has an encounter with some hippies. Along with an ex-classmate, he goes out to see a porn film but to their disappointment, the film turns out to be not-so-pornographic.
In such constant wandering in a Calcutta, disintegrated relationships with his sister and a Naxalite (militant communist) brother, his friendship with Keya is only thing that keeps him sane.
Keya is a simple girl. They enjoy each other's company but they cannot make any commitment to each other due to the circumstances.
After yet another attempt at a job interview, Siddartha leaves the big city to take a modest job of a salesman in a far off small town. He writes to Keya that he still cherishes their relationship. And that he has heard that bird call again but this time it is for real, and not his mind. After completing the letter, he comes out to the balcony of his modest room. The bird calls again. He also hears the sombre chants of a funeral procession. As he turns to the camera, the picture is frozen.
This is the first film of the Calcutta Trilogy. The other two were and Seemabaddha (Company Limited, 1971) and Jana Aranya (The Middle Man, 1975). All the three films study the effect the big city of Calcutta has on the educated youth and the price it extracts from them.
The seventies were a difficult period for India and West Bengal. The Corruption was rampant; the Naxalite movement had created havoc in Calcutta. In fact, they had turned parts of Calcutta into 'liberated zones'. By the time the Naxalite movement died down, in 1975, Mrs. Indira Gandhi (then, Prime Minister of India) suppressed the fundamental rights and declared "Emergency" for her own political survival. Her son, Sanjay Gandhi became a dictator of sorts without any official designation. The opposition leaders were thrown into prisons.
About his social responsibilities as a filmmaker, in an interview with Cineaste magazine, Ray commented, "You can see my attitude in The Adversary where you have two brothers. The younger brother is a Naxalite. There is no doubt that the elder brother admires the younger brother for his bravery and convictions. The film is not ambiguous about that. As a filmmaker, however, I was more interested in the elder brother because he is the vacillating character. As a psychological entity, as a human being with doubts, he is a more interesting character to me. The younger brother has already identified himself with a cause. That makes him part of a total attitude and makes him unimportant. The Naxalite movement takes over. He, as a person, becomes insignificant."
In a letter to Seton in 1970, Ray wrote that Pratidwandi was the most provocative film he had made till then. The film is said to have evoked extreme reactions. "People either loved the film or hated it", Dhritiman Chatterjee told Andrew Robinson, Ray's biographer.
看大话西游哭了三次，第一次看到达叔，第二次看到至尊宝化身齐天大圣，第三次看到青霞为了紫霞付出自己的千年道行。为了经典，为了爱情，为了友情。
剧情连接不自然，人物关系生硬，笑点生硬尴尬，只能勉强看下去
虽然是网大，但有达叔还得看。注意到马心瑞是在电视剧《还没爱够》里面，当时就觉得这个女二很有女主气质，现在改名叫马瑞，颜值还是够得上的，继朱茵之后演紫霞的人除了她和彭小苒有些感觉，其他就连唐嫣都没有。这里至尊宝人设大改，女追男变男追女可以的，但主角不应该因为梦就说什么不能走，怪异突兀。世界观设定在花果村大闹天宫前五百年，可所有人都知道西天取经？老爹+卖面+阿宝？功夫熊猫？紫霞仙子出场没有慢动作滤镜过度渲染，反而是滑稽的，反套路可以。青霞终于有了形象，紫青双剑合璧不错。但镜头配音等等都很拉，都是彩蛋和致敬，台词却不好。BGM加了戏腔，有点意思。场景还原了，这点也行。悟空扮相丑到一定境界，如果颜值撑不起来千万别用自己的脸，连六小龄童和周星驰都不敢，你那么普通又那么自信。
紫青合璧战蚁后那里BGM还挺好听，紫霞的演员说明演技尚可一定要挑剧本，微微里演校花太平庸不讨喜，后来醉玲珑里就蛮飒的，一定要发挥好特性。
把经典翻拍来翻拍去一点创新都没有，反倒是看乏了。
卢冠廷的声音出来，整个人立马一身鸡皮疙瘩…
淘梦垂死挣扎的作品 依然是网大最差最固化的一波人 整个片子的价值在分账上体现得非常明显 不知道中间环节吃掉了多少 领导层不懂电影 中间层只想着揩油 片子本身水到爆炸 平台和观众不傻
一星给达叔，一星给一生所爱，其他的不想多说了。
关键是这个紫霞笑起来真挺好看的，让人能够看得进去哈哈哈哈！！
看完来打个分，整体质感很不错——摄影、美术、演技和特效比一般网大强很多，而且是达叔遗作，真心推荐一下。
嗨，就当是看达叔的遗作吧，戏份不多，可勾出太多回忆，作品没想象中渣，当作一部怀念大话西游和达叔的作品看看也还能说的过去。
这就是前传。还有达叔。每一个剧情的呼应，自己脑海里会自动补上前作。
槽点和诚意都很明显的电影。
故事情节稍单薄，情感线缺铺垫，梗不是很密集但有，女主好看，算是完成不错的电影。片尾曲响起，还是忍不住泪目……
电影本身剧情还可以呀，没有完全照搬原作蹭情怀，反而嫁接在原有剧情背景下，谱写了一个新的故事，挺好的！
不到6分过分了，我觉着挺好，网大里的一股清流。
boss肉眼可见的弱智，感情戏很认真，7分
挺好看的还原大话西游的那个故事如何缘起的故事，然后达叔在生前演出的最后一部电影，也是蛮感慨的，然后故事也非常算得上是诚意之作，然后演员表演也特别的精彩，故事也特别的唯美动人，然后也不乏诙谐幽默，实在是大话西游续作里头不可多得的一部上乘之作。
大话西游同人纯爱篇。几个主演演技还不错，不算毁经典。
至尊宝:“姑娘，我们好像在哪里见过“。紫霞:“我们还会再见的“。大话西游yyds
