Keedaa Cola (2023)
The themes don't connect
It seems like the secondary characters (or so they seemed as per introduction) dominate the story to a point where the main leads dont matter.
Bramhanandam's emotional connect doesn't matter. Him saying "we don't need money if it comes with these many problems" doesn't matter by the end as his grandson ends up with easy money anyway. His character doesnt matter by the end, same as the two leads that he is with in the movie.
In fact, all the characters needed more time to complete their arcs. The film didnt seem to know how to do it.
It seemed like threads were laid out to stitch together a good story and in the second half they were hastily tied off instead of being beautifully knitted.
With certainty, the script could've used better writers and more rewrites. The movie making is fantastic. The other departments are fantastic.
Class of '07 (2023)
Good show that's a bit confused
The show is entertaining and original enough to be fun. But it often feels like it doesn't know how serious it wants to take its serious elements.
Potentially the world is drowned, or atleast a large part of Australia where they seem to be. Yet the characters behave like they're merely stuck on an island and the world's fine? If you're doing a comedy then there are ways to address it in silly ways. (Think of Kevin Hart freaking out in any movie of his.)
But the show doesn't want to be as silly while being a comedy. It wants to be emotional and supportive too.
While I'm glad it didn't go full Ghost Busters in terms of silliness the show still feels inconsistent in it's tone.
Mainly because all the characters act as if they have nothing to lose out there in the world. (They even Kayak only once to see if anything's out there. No raft? No long distance voyage? Nothing?)
It's still comedy, funny and well made. Overall good.
Me Time (2022)
Do people expect a masterpiece watching this?
I have no problem with the movie for what it is. It is exactly the type of expendable comedy I've come to expect. For all those leaving bad reviews, why do they expect something else? It is exactly as advertised.
Everyone's getting a paycheck. Netflix gets another IP. People get to kill their time or get to fill the silence in their lives with this playing this in their background. Because full attention is only for the good movies.
The movie didn't go full Wahlberg and that's appreciated. Never go full Wahlberg. Kevin can be annoying at times but short Balck man shouting is funny apparently.
It is what it is.
