Freddy (2022)
A nice attempt of making good crime flick
It was a over all good movie with a gripping story line. I enjoyed the small details about the protagonist's past life. It was all well said through small montages that why he was alone, why he was mentally disturbed. Somehow this movie reminded me of the the movie "JOKER" as we saw his imaginary world is too good to be true rather the harsh reality.
However this movie and its story line lacked in terms of depth in certain portions. That is how it could not create much of impact on me. I like to see morbid and mature content on screen but they must me impactful and hard hitting. I saw "Dahmer" on netflix recently and it was too good. Well I had a vibe that "Freddy" could be an amazing and mind bending, but it was not. It was good though but it was not up to the mark.
Dracula Sir (2020)
An amazing artistic approach of representing the Dacula
The unexceptional movie making of Debaloy Bhattacharya has definitely change the total picture of Tollywood. Truly appreciate the art and craft behind this movie. Acting wise Anirban, Mimi, each one of the actor have played their parts so well that it increases the intensity of the story. The dark tale of Dracula will definitely linger in our minds for long.
The Undoing (2020)
Failed to keep up the thrill..!
I was totally convinced by the pilot episode that I will definitely finish this miniseries but gradually the plot stated loosing the the thrill. And ultimately the story fell like a disaster. Some what in the presence of NIcole Kidman it felt like watching "Big Little Lies" once again, as I found many similarities in between these two shows. Disappointed to see no more creativity which I was expecting, but I gave this series an 8 just for the star power that delivered amazing acting and obviously New York City.
Kanpuriye (2019)
Hidden Gem..!
It's an amazing anthology representing lives of Kanpur's people. How they easily dream about going to big cities by leaving their hometown soon. Many of them successfully leave but many of them fail to do so. "Kanpuriye" is a solace to those burning hearts who failed to leave Kanpur to pursue their big dreams.
Obviously it's a hidden gem because it's really a well made movie. The drama and comedy of errors shown in this movie is somehow related all our lives.
Mirzya (2016)
Perhaps not a great failure but an universe of possibilities
Well, there were so many possibilities that this movie could be more impactful to the audience not only from India but also from the whole world, concerning the fact that the ancient storyline had no dialogues but a solid tragedy of a love story. I can't see this movie as a great failure but an universe of possibilities which is to be filled by imaginations of the youth and new movie makers.
I still believe in the abilities of Omprakash Mehra, as he is one of the only few director who has been a true baton bearer of Indian culture and history.
Ferdinand (2017)
"Do your stuff" that's the message
Everybody around you(Ferdinand) is a part of the same rat-race(Bull-fighting). The sick competition of bull-fighting limited all bull's life to binary options of winning or loosing. This movie clearly shows and influence you to think out of the box, as Ferdinand becomes the one and only to not being interested in bull-fighting at all. It also felt like watching "Okja" which made us aware of animal rights and co-existence. Don't know why this movie got this low rating, perhaps it's one of the best animated movie i have ever seen.
Mirzapur (2018)
"Badlapur" It is
It's evident that people love to see violence and they will surely enjoy it on mirzarpur. Except that there are stellar performances of Pankanj Tripathi, Rasika Duggal, Divyenndu etc. will make you obsessed with their drama. Characters of this show were so engaging that you will crave to see more and more of those characters every episode. It's a bit lengthy in season 2 but but you don't want to miss any details of the grizzly neighborhood of mirzapur.
Shakuntala Devi (2020)
It's not all about Maths
This is how the director of this movie wants to see Shakuntala Devi. Obviously they directors and producers have the independence of making movies as their way. But they should not mislead people by manipulating real life stories. May be it could have been great if the name "Shakuntala Devi" was not used like this.
I have given this movie 7 as the actors were really great in this movie. As a movie it was good. The mother daughter relationship and the way of representing the circle of life was amazing. Also the math calculations were quite interesting to know. But i cannot give marks to this movie as a biopic.
Okja (2017)
Oddly it was feeling like "Schindler's List"
It was the famous quote from "Schindler's List" "Whoever saves one life saves the world entire". That is how the little girl traded Okja's life by bribing the fascists. Actually the concept was that we all forgot the value of a life. We blaming Hitler for killing immense amount of Jews? We all should blame our selves that we are also on the killer side.
Panchayat (2020)
Pristine rural vibes of India
Just the moment when i saw that it was created by TVF, i was assured that it's something amazing, and it didn't disappoint. Thanks to the whole team of "Panchayat" for making this masterpiece. You can't even think of a single web-series these days that is made without immense amount of abusive language, lots of unwanted porn, and substance abuse. Panchayat just set an exceptional example for those rich fat but junk content creators. People literally can relate to the characters and situations of this series, that's how clear and simple it's script is. It's really good and i would recommend all my surrounding people to watch this.
El Camino (2019)
Character Branding
Vince Gilligan had an idea of the branding his iconic characters long before MCU did. Cheers to his effort and story telling process. He gave a perfect farewell party for Jesse Pinkman. It's been really a long journey, and it's time to leave the old place to go to a new place to have something new, have a good life.
Raajneeti (2010)
The indian way of representing "The Godfather"
Consider Ranbir Kapoor as Michel Corleone then you will see the magic. But needless to say Prakash Jha did make this movie so well that audience had goosebumps each and every time they saw the iconic scenes of this movie. Here in india it's strictly politics rather than business. This movie shows how politics can change people, and turn them into animals fighting to sit on the throne of existence.
Rockstar (2011)
Imtiaz + Ranbir + A.R Rahaman = Excellence at it's best
It's one of those Imtiaz Ali's unpredictable love stories, which can give you a huge hangover for sure. Plus you can enjoy one of the best performance of Ranbir Kapoor as Jordan in this movie. And also the music of A.R Rahman adds another level of thinking to it. What do you need more? Go watch it right away.
Black Mirror (2011)
Tragic stories of scientific advancements
I have watched the whole series and it was something which i never seen, even i did not have any thoughts of them. The whole series is based on a human society where science is very much advanced. The government said that it was all for human well fair. Governments always manipulated normal civilian thoughts in case if they become rebels and will be treats for them. In our sleeping cells we disabled our thinking that scientific advancements also have their drawbacks. Team black mirror conveyed this message to all it's viewers that nobody should manipulate or bend the laws of nature. Because if this law is tampered by science, then the whole humanity must be prepared for it's fatal consequences.
Masaan (2015)
A raw picture of India
The story of this movie fully reflected the real, the raw picture of Indian society. Our Indian society seems like it has developed a lot. We think our mentality has changed positively. But there are also many small towns where corruption and cast-ism is very much prominent than we think. Thanks to the team Masaan who did this amazing masterpiece of art. This movie will be an inspiration to the millions of film makers in the generations to come.
Spider-Man: Into the Spider-Verse (2018)
Spidy belongs to Sony
Spidy will always belong to sony in any multi verse. Amazing story and a prove that spidy is an independent character rather the son of Mr. Stark.
Band of Brothers (2001)
Walk-through of the history
We all saw avengers but how many of us saw this masterpiece? This is called the actual war, and how it was fought. It was like reliving the past, a walk through of the history. Thanks a lot to the team who did research and made this miniseries happen. Each and every detail was too perfect.
October (2018)
Simply beautiful
This movie doesn't has much to tell except a pure love story. An unexpected love which was realized by the hero and heroine after a fateful incident. The whole movie was nicely crafted by Shoojit Sircar. October is another star of his streak of success. And yes.! Varun Dhawan can do any genre , which was evident by his performance.
The Notebook (2004)
Harsh reality which every romantic couple want to skip
I didn't realize how this movie got such low ratings in imdb, even it's not in the top 250 list, where it definitely deserves a spot. It was a great movie. The ultimate reality of our humanity. Security of wealth does have a higher priority than security of love and emotions. It was always trendy as it seems now.
Wake Up Sid (2009)
Was Sid the actual portrayal of Ranbir Kapoor?
This movie was such a breakthrough for all the critics of Ranbir Kapoor that he is not a spoiled brat of Rishi Kapoor or any womanizer chocolate boy. This movie a was prove that Ranbir Kapoor was always something more than that our expectations. Here Siddharth Mehera Is very much similar to the life of Ranbir Kapoor. In the story slowly but suddenly sid realize what is life and what it's all about. Wake up sid is also good for those impatient parents who have become fed up with their child's maturity. This movie says that one day surely maturity will find it's way, it's just a matter of time.
Andhadhun (2018)
Sriram the maestro of "Indian Noir Genre"
There are no doubts on Sriram Raghavan being the maestro of "Indian noir genre'. He never fails to surprise his audience and critics by his movies. The protagonist of the story is blind who is actually pretending to be a blind. That was an amazing concept to work with. Acting wise Ayushman amazing but all the spotlights were stolen by Tabu. It was really fun to see her playing a psycho killer. Other small characters also did their marvelous job.
Jab We Met (2007)
Only Imtiaz can do it
In 2007 Shahid and Kareena were very much in love, and anyone can feel that sparkling chemistry between them in this movie. In case of Imtiaz Ali, he always love to experiment with this kind of real life romantic bonds. Along with that he will always show his deep affectation of mountains and road trips in his movies like he did with this one. It will remain a classic romantic movie in the decades to come for its unique comedy and musics also.
Kabir Singh (2019)
Shahid Kapoor is the best
We are all familiar with this kind of "Devdas" roles. Where main protagonist of the story usually takes alcohol and other tranquilizers to forget his broken love. But Shahid Kapoor have done an amazing job in this role of Kabir Singh and set a new benchmark as Devdas. Shahid has done "Tommy singh" in udta punjab which everyone will think Kabir Singh is just the same, but it's not. Allover this is a one time watch movie, with classic performance of Shahid in it.
