Så var det jul igjen (2023)
Watch it if you want to feel second hand embarrassment!
I watched the movie with very high hopes but ended up being highly disappointed. It is a lost opportunity and I feel it would probably offend people from both the countries. I am Indian and no, we don't behave like Jashan. His character was downright rude and obnoxious. I felt the Secondhand embarassment throughout. Thea's family was equally hostile towards Jashan. Eventually it was a mess where no-one could evoke any sympathy! I think the only likeable characters were the child and her mother. The last 5 minutes of the movie were good. Rest of the movie is completely directionless in my opinion.
Mumbai Diaries (2021)
I can't understand high ratings!!
Watched this as it was so higly rated but it was utterly disappointing. Bad, bland and sometimes overacting, even the good actors like Konkona were not convincing. It was difficult to connect with any character. Too many useless subplots and too much dramatization. The series just went downhill with each episode. I couldn't feel anything for the hospital staff, or the police staff, hated media, disliked guests at hotel! Their flaws, instead of making them look humans, made them look absolutely stupid and highly irritating. Somehow it all felt like a mockery of the real incident. They should not have diluted it with unnecessary drama.
The Boy, the Mole, the Fox and the Horse (2022)
Didn't live upto my expectations
I had high hopes with this movie however I ended up disappointed, disappointed enough to leave a review. It is beautiful visually but other than that it did not make much sense to me. I mean I love philosophical movies but this was so non cohesive. Dialogues might have been profound but they didn't make much sense in the premise and sounded absolutely random! In fact I could not understand the premise at all. Sadly I watched it immediately after watching 'Detachment' which is stunning and which I absolutely absolutely loved. I guess that too added to the disappointment! I was expecting similar profoundness and beauty, perhaps!
Ajeeb Daastaans (2021)
9stars to Ankahee though.
While rest three stories were kind of average, the last and 4th was absolutely beautiful. Stunning acting by Manav and Shefali.
Ludo (2020)
One of the best watch in 2020
Don't pay attention to low ratings...some people are still on mindless boycott spree and seems to have no taste in cinema whatsoever. The movie is absolutely great and leaves you warm and smiling. I enjoyed the subtle underlying philosophy in every story. All the actors did justice to their parts. It is arguably one of the best Indian movies I watched in 2020.
Breathe: Into the Shadows (2020)
A big let down.
I tried but just couldn't manage to watch the complete show. It doesn't come even miles close to its predecessor.
Asur: Welcome to Your Dark Side (2020)
Predictable with too many loopholes and loose ends
9.2 Rating for this baffles me. I found it below average and sort of absurd. Utterly predictable and unintelligent, especially the end. Waste of time for me.
Article 15 (2019)
Absolute stunner
I usually do not write reviews but this movie was worth it. I wish I could have rated it higher than 10. Haven't watched anything this magnificent lately. Everything about this movie was just perfect. Highly recommended hard hitting piece of cinema.
