Bheed (2023) User Reviews

BHEED is better than you think

[indiancoasterenthusiast · 8/10 · 25 March 2023]

BHEED is a slow, intense, unrelenting, thought-provoking, and above all, a CHALLENGING film.

It sets itself apart from other COVID-19 dramas by also being an effective contained thriller set in a secluded police checkpoint near a mall.

Pankaj Kapur, Rajkumar Rao and Bhumi Pednekar give some of their best performances to date in this film.

BHEED is indeed a slow burn, and will not appeal to everyone. Do not expect a conventional, action-heavy thriller from this movie. BHEED shows the harrowing real, but unseen stories of the pandemic, the ones that many of us had turned a blind eye to.

I do have one criticism of BHEED - some of its stories (particularly the one about the divorced mother) were not developed enough to have any lasting emotional impact.

In to the darkest time, not a great one but very near to it.

Bheed

Anubhav sinha after mulk, article 15 and thappad expectations were set high, with bheed he somehow manages to deliver what audience will appreciate.

Movie could have been better but this dosen't mean it fallen short anywhere.

Bheed manages to touch one's heart & soul, feel what our migrant brothers and sisters went through when we went into lockdown.

This movie showcases the frustration, fear, care, anger which makes you feel what I would have done if I was locked in such a situation.

Every emotion was captured perfectly in this movie be it, How the Govt just ignored it's own people, at a time when the common people wanted them the most.

Or How people managed and survived with each others help, this is what makes true India.

Rajkumar rao, Pankaj Kapoor, Rana, Bhumu, Dia, Virendra & many more everyone gave excellent performance, proper casting is the added plus point and strength of this movie.

Not a great one but very near to it.

A must watch movie to get the feel of what actually happened during that difficult time.

Society which forgets it's interconnectedness, turns into 'Bheed' ( i.e., mob)

[swachar · 8/10 · 24 March 2023]

This is a film about a dark aspect of our (India's) society, which came to light during Corona lockdown of March 2020.

The film weaves through web of the class-caste, professional privileges of the characters in the film. It brings in front of us the crisis of migrant workers attempting to return to their villages.

They left villages in search of livelihood to the city, the city, they and many of us, considered our to be our home. But during the lockdown, cities were least concerned about the workers who make city a comfortable space for living.

This film is not for entertainment. It is for making the viewer question, their own system of rights, justice, privileges and their compromised existence.

This is a black and white film, which symbolically represents the ways of thinking and behaviour, dating back to the era of films in black and white, a long time ago.

The ways of our thinking are old, outdated and static. The use of black and white filmography clearly brings this out.

This film doesn't give you any shocking images, neither it gives you any climax. But it will make every sensitive person to sit through the film, without giving them a room for thinking anything else than what they see in the film.

Characters in the film are very real, they represent various sections of the caledioscope that Indian society is in the 21st century.

Very good dialogues, acting and direction.

Above average film

[pranav-dragonlord · 6/10 · 24 March 2023]

Bheed by Anubhav Sinha - first of all, watching this film in black and white was a unique experience on the big screen. Set in a fictional state and town with all vehicles number plates CP. It shows what happened during the height of pandemic at a town border, when all migrants wanted to return to their town. I feel that writers literally took all the headlines going around during the pandemic, compressed them to one place and all the problems were faced in a single day.

Every topic was covered caste, religion, politics and poverty. Due to this, the story didn't feel focused and the movie's runtime was only 1h50m. This needed a slower approach and maybe it was too soon to release this film. They could have made it 5-10 years later. It shows poor management by the current govt.

The acting was wonderful, but these were the best - Rajkumar Rao, Dia Mirza, Aditya Srivastava, Pankaj Kapoor and Aushutosh Rana.

So I saw the censor board certificate which states all the cuts done in this film, I feel, due to this, 50% impact of the film is lost.

Magnifies the Societal Vices on the Big Screen

[KebbyPro · 7/10 · 28 May 2023]

The treatment of the subject is quite mature in this movie. The social commentary on the various aspects of the Indian society is well-written. The powerplay of caste and power in desperate times like this makes this an interesting watch. But it would have been great if the backstory of the female characters had been explored more. Neither the character of Dia Mirza nor that of Bhumi Pednekar were fleshed out well. They were merely second fiddle either to the scenario (Dia) or to the male actor (Rajkummar Rao). Overall, this is a good watch if you want to see the societal undertones magnify on the big screen.

They wander, they suffer, but they endure. They are never quite defeated and their survival is itself a triumph.

[Fella_shibby · 9/10 · 15 September 2023]

I saw this on Netflix few days back.

This is one of the best realistic cinema to come out from Bollywood.

I feel this movie wasn't advertised well nor did this movie got its due due to political reasons.

The movie is noted for Anubhav Sinha's passionate depiction of the plight of the poor, and many fascists will definitely attack the social and political views.

Bheed is a must watch for anyone who wants to know what happened to the migrant workers during the first wave of covid.

The song herail ba, its music n voice is mesmerizing.

Pankaj Kapoor gave a solid performance. His accent of that of the North Indian is spot on.

Rajkumar Rao gave a very restrained but good performance.

The movie also handled the Tablighi Jamaat issue in a very realistic way.

The Chief Justice of India Sharad Bobde observed "evasiveness" in that the Government of India's affidavit filed in response to petitions challenging the discriminatory and communal coverage of the Tablighi Jamaat incident by some sections of the media.

The Bombay High Court quashed the FIRs.

The court observed: "A political government tries to find the scapegoat when there is pandemic or calamity and the circumstances show that there is probability that the Jaamat was chosen to make them scapegoats.

Migrant workers struggle during the pandemic nicely shown

[joelnoronha179 · 7/10 · 26 May 2023]

Bheed movie review

Bheed is a story of corona time lockdown when there was lockdown and country borders were getting sealed, state borders were getting sealed, what was the plight of the migrant workers who were travelling back to their villages by road is what we get to see in the movie. Caste angle is also there, religion angle is also there to the problems created by some people then. Some people hungry and dont have food to eat people started getting angry this is also shown in the movie. Doctors angle, ploice angle while dealing with the pandemic and the virus is aalso what we get to see in the film. Nice acting by all the cast particularly Rajkumar Rao and Bhumi Pednekar. Love angle iss also there. Nice moie, less duration within two hours. Migrant workers problems well showed in the movie. Last Bhojpuri song was also nice. Film was well shown to the people in an intereting way. DIdnt feel bored. You can watch this movie if you want to know the struggle of the migrant workers then during the pandemic. I liked this movie and I rate it 7 stars out of 10. Film was black and white yet the story was interesting.

The most negative reviews are for the politicle reason

[ripplejb · 10/10 · 28 March 2023]

The movie's story is around some true events during the COVID lockdown. It shows the failures of the mismanagement of the Indian government.

The direction and acting of all the actors were perfect. The story raises many issues, like our society's caste system, polarization, and misinformation. The movie also shows how we are all humans. Do not fall for the negative reviews.

The story is about multiple characters who either needed to leave their homes in a big city or got stranded and needed to reach some location due to the lockdown.

On the border of a fictional town, a police officer and his subordinates are supposed to stop the crowd from entering the town.

If you like movies closer to reality and are unafraid of seeing the uncomfortable truth, please watch.

A serious movie on exodus of migrant labour in lockdown

[madanmarwah · 7/10 · 26 May 2023]

First things first. This is a serious movie and those looking for entertainment are advised to keep away. Anubhav Sinha is known for making movies on serious and thought provoking subjects giving no consideration to box office requirements.( I however found that compared to this movie, Thappad, Mulk and Article 15 were far superior) .This is one such movie which is more of a docudrama on the exodus of migrant labour during the Covid lockdown where hundreds were stuck at a sealed border and not allowed to proceed to their homes. Stopping these angry, desperate and hungry people from moving forward is a small group of policemen led by Inspector Rajkummar Rao. Tempers run high, tension mounts and there is some violence too which Rajkummar Rao finds difficult to control.

Director Anubhav Sinha and his camera person have faithfully tried to recreate and record what must have taken place then. The camera captures the people left stranded in the open wilderness like the old and helpless giving blank stares, the scared, the sick, the hungry children etc in the Black and White format making the scenes very realistic indeed. The movie touches upon smouldering social issues like caste division, racism, misinformation, rumours etc etc. A real life incident of a 12 year old girl taking her sick father on a bicycle is depicted well. The director has used half a dozen non stars to play ordinary characters to good effect. All actors have done equally well with no one standing out and thankfully there is little melodrama .The movie is heavy and slow but not boring though there is no doubt that it is a difficult watch. The amorous interlude of the lead pair was unnecessary and jarring ( A box office compromise? )

Wear The Mask On Eyes To Avoid This Infection

[SAMTHEBESTEST · 3/10 · 24 March 2023]

Bheed (2023) : Movie Review -

Anubhav Sinha's Bheed, starring Rajkummar Rao, Bhumi Pednekar, and Pankaj Kapur, is said to be based on the migration of labourers during the early days of lockdown in 2020. That's not true, though. There are many other factors here, from police morals to casteism, Hindu-Muslim hatred, upper-class negativity, corrupt journalism, brutal governorships, and what have you. The basic thing that was required was "pain," and I didn't find it anywhere. Bheed is a terrible film, but before that, it's an even worse script. The timing is wrong too. People are now coming over those horrible days and are up to a new beginning in their lives and they don't want to recall those nightmares of the pandemic. Why would anyone want to see what they want to forget? And where was that realistic cinema here? A film set in the early days of lockdown-extremely strict days were those I tell you-and yet, 95% of portion of the film sees people not wearing masks? Like, seriously?

Bheed starts off with a narration of lockdown (as if we didn't know what it was), and then subtitles help you realise that there are people who are on migration. Thousands, actually lakhs, of people are migrating from cities to their villages, but by walking since buses and other vehicles are shut. Surya Kumar Singh Tikas (Rajkummar Rao) is appointed as the new officer in charge of a small checkpoint in Tejpur since his senior officer has to take care of his own parents. A little nervous about these new responsibilities, Surya tries to keep things under control with utter honesty. However, his control is devastated when he has to handle ample people coming from different areas at the same time. During this calm process of a few hours, he advises people to stay put while ministers are discussing new plans in a secret meeting. His plans are shattered when he comes to know that there is no meeting, and now he has to take control of the situation while the canoodle is getting furious. He is joined by his girlfriend, colleagues, a group of Muslim people travelling in a bus, a relative of a powerful politician, an urban-class woman who wants to go to her daughter, and subsequently by his senior officer.

Bheed is a bad script right from the beginning. In the first 10 minutes, you hardly see any policemen or people walking in a group wearing a mask, and you realise how fake this show is going to be. I remember going to a market in the first month of lockdown; it was so strict and unavoidable to wear a mask and keep social distance. I remember every policeman wearing a mask and not going close to anyone while talking, including themselves. Here, not a single policeman behaved so. Whenever I used to come home from the market or any place outside, my mother used to give me sanitizer on the door and then let me in. She never allowed me to touch anything in the house before sanitising my hands and washing them carefully. I saw all my friends, neighbours, and relatives doing the same. But here, you see a policeman and his girlfriend coming and directly getting involved in sexual intercourse. No sanitiser, no washing hands or no bath, and believe it or not he was a policeman and she was a nurse-two persons who were closest to Covid-19 infected people. What the hell?

I lost interest in the first 15 minutes only after seeing so much stupidity, but later, it got worse. From where did that casteism angle come? Tikas, full name-who the hell cared and asked for it? A journalist not wearing a mask, seriously? I am a journalist myself, and I haven't seen any of my colleagues go out on the field without a mask in 2020. Suddenly, that humiliating India angle came.. from where, Bhai, and why? A cameraman clicking pictures of poor women sitting on the ground is a sign of disgrace? Who even imagined that it would go up to a green card within a minute? A woman who wants to get to her daughter is more concerned about her husband's victory and shamefully follows a girl on a bicycle. What's the explanation? Why did she shout at her driver for helping the girl? Arre, you are from the urban section; just open a Google Map on your phone and find a short cut. Why do you have to follow a bicycle with a car? How can a screenplay be so dumb? Who on earth thought of Hindu-Muslim hatred here? For what sake did that Naxalism reference have to be used? Why can't you stick to lockdown and migration issues? Who even had time to think about aukat and prestige issues then? The police have been praised and even worshipped by people in their societies for the work they have done for us, and here you are making fun of it? Bheed is not a film; it's a joke. Even that troll material, "Thaali Andolan Reels," made more sense than this.

Rajkummar Rao's performance is a slight relief for you in this disaster show, but as a fan and admirer, I want to ask what happened to your script sense? One or two bad films are okay, I can understand that, but back-to-back disappointments are so disheartening. Where is that Rajkummar who used to choose scripts like Shahid, Newton, Aligarh, Kai Po Che, Queen, Trapped, and Stree? I, sorry, WE miss you badly. Bhumi Pednekar is also going through the same phase, but thankfully, her acting skills aren't barred. Pankaj Kapur still has the same charisma, and Aditya Srivastava, as a cop, just can't go bad. Talents like Kritika Kamra and Dia Mirza are wasted by the writers and the director. Ashutosh Rana and Veerendra Saxena are somewhat okay, and that's understandable.

Bheed causes a certain irksome hour for you with a tedious black-and-white show. I know and I can understand why the film converted to black and white, but I don't see the script and execution finding the right balance to prove the given point. It was supposed to portray black memories, but it does everything besides that. There is drama-so much drama-unnecessarily, and the characters are dragged into the worthless mud. The editing is strictly okay, as it was less than two hours long, yet it felt boring sometimes. Anubhav Sinha makes a hat-trick of bad films. After a forgettable filmography till 2016, he took a new birth with "Mulk" (2018) and "Article 15" (2019), but then he went to the dead zone again with "Thappad" (2020) and "Anek" (2022). Bheed takes him even lower. This has to be one of his worst films in recent times, and besides the box office, I expect a lot of humiliation from the public, if not critics. Bheed just didn't go right, not even in one aspect. The only two good scenes in the film are one, that cement mixer revelation, and second one is the end-not because the torture ends, but it's really a good end. Then there are intertitles about migration and police treatment, which are useful, but good intertitles don't mean good cinema. As a whole, this is an awfully bad film. Not your noses, but your eyes need those masks to protect you from this.

RATING - 3/10*

"If you know your history, you would know where you're coming from."

[chand-suhas · 6/10 · 17 September 2023]

Bheed takes us through the initial days of lockdown during the covid-19 pandemic, where migrant workers got stranded in various parts of the country due to the borders getting sealed. The fear of not belonging anywhere and the struggle to reach back home. How caste and class still dictate the terms. Several characters ranging from the powerful to powerless, privileged to underprivileged, go through the same commotion while stuck at a checkpost. Bheed is the story of the largest migration India saw since Independence. Dialogue might be removed, the fact remains.

The film began with the group of migrant workers walking on the railway tracks and eventually resting over it as their bodies gave away, walking all the while. Needless to say, what actually happens to the poor souls. Anubhav Sinha sets the tone of the film right away and it wasn't going to be an easy watch. The highlight is how the narrative is woven around the caste and class division. The characters are straight out of real life and it effectively depicts the darkest phase of Incredible India post Independence.

Rajkummar Rao's Surya Kumar Singh Tikas and Bhumi Pedneker's Dr. Renu Sharma bring in the perfect balance to the narrative. Caste plays the main role here and to see how she empowers him, to overcome his insecurities and face the harsh reality he grew up / has to live with. As the in-charge of the newly created checkpost, the journey of Tikas to realizing what it takes to do the right thing is impressive.

The other characters that stood out was that of Dia Mirza's Geetanjali and her car driver Kanhaiya, where her self centered behavior gets shown a mirror. Then there is Pankaj Tripathi's Balram Trivedi which stood out for the most part, as the naive upper caste guy believing WhatsApp rumors and struggling to take care of his people. His character arc from being a casteist guy to a rebel, needed a better closure in the final act.

Yes, it was the final act that was underwhelming as it went too filmy. Even then, there were moments that had a lasting impact. Amidst all this, the character of a daughter cycling her alcohilic father around, probably the one sadly brave story during the covid days which I would never forget and there is nothing else but to feel numb, whenever the character appeared on screen. Bheed is not the kind of film which is easy to review as the stories it narrates, is just the nightmare we witnessed day after day for two years.

Zero storyline

[akankshaagrawal-13280 · 4/10 · 25 March 2023]

There is no proper storyline,illogical caste system is included, the real problems faced by the migrate worker during their travel is completely missed from the movie all the good fact and important events of lockdown are showed only written in form at end of the movie.. Choice of actors are good.. Excellent acting and performance.. But the weak storyline just spoiled the whole movie..sorry so say but the movie failed to attach you emotionally ..aa it is very emotional and sensitive content...we expected a better plot..waiting for better movies on this content in future......... Don't waste your time and money.

Powerful and impactful depiction of the horrors of the countrywide lockdown.

[sonusabir12 · 10/10 · 26 March 2023]

Powerful and impactful depiction of the horrors of the countrywide lockdown.

The only way forward is to accept and come to terms with the mistakes made.

The administration left, right or centre failed 'miserably and completely' to take care of the migrant labourers of this country.

The movie is about how humanity suffered during an unexpected crisis.

It is a mirror that shows us how precarious the system was in the first place.

Without being political about it, we can see the tragedy unfold and how love and compassion prevailed in the grimmest moments.

Amazing acting performances and directorial brilliance.

An exhilarating piece of cinema potraying the aftermaths of a contagion. A gritty and brave document capturing the mindsets of millions.

[arish-29343 · 10/10 · 29 March 2023]

The only thing i wanted after the movie finished in theatres was to hug Anubhav sinha for his grit. A true grit in true sense. The grey and cinematic experience created by this film is one of a kind. To consolidate as many crucial as well excruciating topics as it could was merely a good choice for the story to be a presentable one on the table. Other wise it was a short film tbh. I have been a cheerful admirer of anubhav since article 15. The technical aspects he carefully incorporates into his film makes it look like a big budget "drama". I bow down for his sheer dedication towards the craft that he understands goes into the film. The score by Dhakde was absolutely phenomenal. Haven't praised an indian original score in a long time. This is both, the kind of film India deserves and it needs right now. Merely 30 people in the theatre. Everyone at that moment surely developed a taste in films i really wanted them to im sure sinha also wants the same and believe me when i say i think they did. They clapped at the end. Waited for all the credits to roll out. See everyone who made this film possible. All this while still sitting on their seats. What an experience i had. Soumik's cinematography made me search his works immediately i reached home. Brilliant. Neat yet so strikingly dark. Sound design was so good. More than visual treat i would say the sound impressed me more. It was so good to see Aditya srivastava. I love his presence in any film. I have been seeing him anurag kashyap's movies and he is exhilarating in this as well just like everybody else. Anubhav sir, don't you be gone before i turn upto you and with you get to make films that challenge the acts of hatred and ignorance people in this country move ahead with these days. To make this country a better place live and and die in. Thanks for the film. My friend quoted after the film ended "If guts had a face it would be Anubhav. No wonder he made article 15".

pathetic

[rmaheta_wed · 2/10 · 25 March 2023]

You can visit gazipur landfill to find more realism than watching this movie .

Looks like they release the movie in hassle .

Unfortunately, the attempt to capture the COVID-19 lockdown in the film was a failure. It's hard to believe that Rajkumar Rao and Pankaj Kapur agreed to participate in this project. There were many important themes that could have been explored in this movie, given that almost everyone has a unique lockdown story to tell. However, the film was very poorly executed, with no apparent research done.

Utter disappointment. Forgot that we had went to see a movie on COVID, adding Bollywood's love angle in every movie.

One of the finest example of story telling

[inkchemi · 9/10 · 26 March 2023]

Anubhav Sinha is the master of his craft of story telling, the latest example is Bheed. The movie is based on COVID mass migration crisis and related small stories. The script is very tight and keeps the audience hooked till the end and make them aware of many untouched aspects of COVID. Background score provide good support to the story. If we talk about acting, Rajkumar Rao delivers one of the best performance of his career. In a supporting role Ashutosh Rana and Aditya Shrivastav creat a big impact, their performances will remain with you for quite long time. Pankaj Kapoor is mind blowing and elevated the movie to the next level. Bhumi Padnekar and Diya Mirza lends very good support. At the end, movie is as good as it's direction and for this I have only one word for Anubhav Sinha- Awesome.

What's the point of the black and white

[rahulbats-679-146395 · 1/10 · 27 May 2023]

Premise of the movie was good but execution is awful. Indians have to focus on content and not gimmicks. This black and white filter doesn't add anything to the story line but it's a continuous distraction. And then the acting and story line is even worse . All the actors need to be sent back to acting school. The storyline is godawful. Just some random incidents happening which never advances the plot. There's one scene where a guy is pointing a gun at the hero and he takes off his sHirt in response to that. Like what the hell? The dialogues as usual with any other Hindi movie are long and cringey.

A must watch depicting the real life event of COVID-19 lockdown

[nareshkumarnk-87454 · 10/10 · 2 April 2023]

The film is based on actual events during the COVID-19 epidemic, highlights the ineffective administration of the Indian government during the lockdown. The film explores the hardships of several persons who either found themselves trapped in a large metropolis or needed to travel somewhere during the lockdown.

The story was compelling, and the acting and direction in the film were excellent. A number of societal concerns are discussed in the movie, such as the caste system, divisiveness, and false information. It shows the human side of people and how they dealt with the problems caused by the pandemic.

The plot revolves around events that occur on the outside of a fictitious town, where a police officer and his subordinates are in charge of stopping people from entering. This element of the film emphasizes the terrible reality of the lockdown, in which the police were granted enormous power and influence over the citizens.

If you enjoy realistic films that explore the difficult facts of society, this film is a must-see. It is a painful reminder of the trials and sufferings that individuals suffered during the epidemic, as well as how the government's negligence contributed to their unhappiness. The film has an indelible influence on its audience and acts as a wake-up call to people in positions of authority to do better.

Anubhav Sinha is back with another relevant film

[mayankshukla1404 · 8/10 · 30 May 2023]

Bheed is an insight into the lockdown and its impact. The film lays bare the real picture of our society which is divided on the lines of religion, cast and class. All is not lost though as humanity saves the day.

The film is another feather to Anubhav Sinha's cap after Mulk, Article 15, Thappad and Anek. His second innings is really impressive where he continues to make one hard hitting film after the other. He might have worked with different actors here but the impact remains the same.

An ensemble of actors comprising Rajkummar Rao, Bhumi Pednekar, Ashutosh Rana, Pankaj Kapur, Dia Mirza and others perform really well and deliver a socially relevant and important film.

This film is saying a very big thing very quietly

[naveenbhardwaj-37650 · 10/10 · 2 April 2023]

Those watching only for entertainment will not understand this film, this film is such a film which is saying a big thing very quietly. It is a mirror of the society, in which the individual can see himself. The makers have shown the society, the system and the media so easily, this film is telling the tremendous truth of the society. It is proving that how the right things of the society can be shown to the society through the medium of films. This is a tremendous experiment in black and white. Had this been a collar film, it might not have created the impact that it is doing in black & white.

What was the need to

[VeekeyBharti · 2/10 · 1 June 2023]

Incorporate steamy sex scenes between Rao and Pednekar in the beginning of this film that completely is off script.

There was nothing new that was not already covered in the news during the said period of lockdown

This is nothing but a lame excuse in the name of real cinema

Having good actors does not mean "whatever"

LOCKDOWN FILES - INDIAN GOVERNMENT UNABLE TO Digest

[satvikmaurya-90846 · 8/10 · 24 April 2023]

United We Stand Divided We Fall-Is the message which this film wants to convey. If we are united we Are 'Civilized Society' If we Divide we are 'Bheed'. The problem with the Indian society is classism and casteism. If we unite together we can bring down any problem heading our way. Us Indians are naive and hence are often exploited by the powerful people as they divide and rule us(whether it were Mughals, Britishers, Despotic Government) Quite ENOUGH, now lets talk about the film.

The film showcases How people from different communities and caste unite together to fight system which is causing them Trouble. ALL THE ACTORS HAVE DONE COMMENDABLE JOB. Film has some loose plots. But the message is very clear. The film shouldn't have been banned. Could've been proved an eye opener to the blind Devouts.

Most of the neagtive reviews are for political reasons.

Pathetic Script / Bad story telling / Wrong timing

[janakbesearch · 1/10 · 28 March 2023]

Cinema is meant to entertain people.

Bheed is such a depressive film.

Pathetic Script - where is the connect? Nothing connects you. I was scratching my hairs in the first 10 minutes. I wasted my money :-( Bad story telling - what is that? These stories are 2 minutes news-items on any TV channel - why make a movie on it?

Wrong timing - people have seen worst and they want something that cheer them up. But here filmmakers think that people should spend their hard-earned money to see such a shallow example of grim-sad-realistic film making? (and I did spend money only to regret) Film makers please grow up and take audiences seriously. No wonder why a Pathan or TJMM kind of films still earn lot of money.....entertainment is what people need!
