Manor, Great Flood, Together, Avatar

Watched few movies over the past few days.

The Manor

  • Watched this on Prime Video.
  • Too good horror movie.
  • How the people find communion in the end makes it worthwhile.

The Great Flood

  • This movie was watched on OTT Netflix.
  • Too good Korean movie.
  • It feels that world has already ended and scientific experiments are underway to make the perfect human.
  • That is what I felt.

Together

  • This horror movie was watched on Prime Video.
  • Bodies get fused to form a perhaps perfect human in upstate New York.
  • Sometimes it is not successful and the result is horrific looking beast.
  • Worth watching for human ingenuity which knows no bounds.

Avatar 3

  • This movie Avatar Part 3 Fire and Ash was watched on the big screen.
  • Nice movie to pass time.
  • But what I felt the "blue people" resemble more and more like animals and it is genuine attempt by the director to depict them as such.
  • The director must have studied a lot of animal behaviour and made it as close to perfection as possible.

Predator, Masti 4, Haq, De De Pyaar, Wicked

Watched several movies over the past few days. As mentioned below.

Predator Badlands

  • Watched this movie on the big screen.
  • In this movie they have shown the Predator's planet.
  • It is set in future no doubt about that.
  • And human race is not shown. 
  • What they have shown is that human race is led by AI and robots.
  • It is not clear if humans are in charge of human made Ai and robots.

Mastiii 4

  • This full comedy movie was watched on big screen.
  • I will say life is full of sorrows and disappointments.
  • And if you can find moments of happiness you should enjoy it.
  • That is what is shown in the movie.
  • Movie is shot in England (mostly).

Haq

  • This Emraan Hashmi starrer was watched on the big screen.
  • Too good drama movie.
  • Though in actual case protagonists may be old, here they have taken young actors.
  • Fully enjoyable movie.

De De Pyaar De 2

Wicked For Good

  • Such is the impact of this movie.
  • Worth watching.

120 Bahadur, Taj Story, Baramulla

Watched few movies over the past few days as mentioned above.

120 Bahadur

  • Watched this movie on the big screen.
  • This is a story of bravery and how 120 people sacrificed themselves for the border.
  • Their bravery deterred the invading forces of Chinese from advancing further.
  • Worth watching.

The Taj Story

  • This was watched on the big screen.
  • This movie tries to destroy the narrative which we learnt from school that the Taj Mahal is a symbol of love. It is not that but that of genocide.
  • Their (makers) motive is that lies when repeated a hundred times becomes the truth.
  • Worth watching once to get alternate view of history.
  • Makers have added disclaimer in the beginning that this is all made up.

Baramulla

  • This "supernatural movie" was watched on Netflix.
  • Too good movie.
  • Movie is made on Kashmiri by Kashmiri for the world.
  • Worth watching once without any problem.

Sunny Sanskari, Kantara

Watched few movies over the past few days.

Sunny Sanskari Ki Tulsi Kumari

  • Watched this movie on the big screen.
  • Too good movie.
  • But there were two scenes which did not go down with me.
  • One was swimming pool pissing scene.
  • And next was chest competition scene between the heroines.
  • Apart from that movie was good.
  • They have taken a seven star resort on hire and shot the movie over there.
  • Definitely can be watched once without any problem.

Kantara Chapter 1

  • This movie was watched on the big screen.
  • It continues old Kantara story and shows "prequel".
  • While first part invoked Lord Vishnu and mainly the "Varaha Avatar".
  • This latest part invoked both Lord Shiva and Lord Durga.
  • It is mish mash of various Gods and Goddesses and the story takes shape.
  • Thing is movies like this cant be described.
  • It has to be watched while being "arrested" in a seat.
  • And then only you will get the movie.

Charidham, Heer Express

Watched the above movies over the past few days.

Charidham : A Journey Within

  • Watched this Odia movie on the big screen.
  • Nice performance by Anubhav Mohanty.
  • Definitely worth watching.
  • You watch this movie and realize that  this is a unique movie because it is Odia movie which is neither Hindi nor South based and it different.

Heer Express

  • This movie was watched on the big screen.
  • The name of the movie shows that who is the main character.
  • Heer i.e. is the name of the heroine and she is the main character.
  • Rest of the actors are like side roles.
  • Heer Express means Heer is the main engine and bogie plus the destination.
  • Movie is set and shot in Indian Punjab and UK, mainly London.
  • Can be watched once without any problem.

Homebound, Vaastav, Tron Ares

Watched few movies as mentioned above over the past few days.

Homebound

  • Watched this movie on the big screen.
  • After a brief background on their stories, the second half of the movie deals with the "homebound story" of the main actors from Surat to UP during the pandemic, i.e. Covid 19.
  • Unfortunately one of them does not make it back and that is the story.
  • Definitely worth watching once.

Vaastav (Odia movie)

  • This Odia movie was watched on the big screen.
  • What I saw that many people had come to the see the movie when they were actually involved in the movie, including the actors, the producers and other people.
  • The producers had probably booked in bulk in the theatre.
  • But it was too bad there was no public patronage available.
  • Means there were very few members of the public.
  • Needless to say the film was withdrawn from the screen in just three days with very few shows.
  • It takes so much time and effort to make a movie but it gets wiped out so easily.
  • But for me the movie was as good as a blockbuster.
  • But I was sad it did not run.

Tron Ares

  • This movie was watched on the big screen.
  • It had one of my favorite personalities, the 30 second To Mars front man Jared Leto.
  • And hence the movie was worthwhile.
  • In addition to incredible special effects.
  • Definitely worth watching.

Coolie, Ek Deewane, Taj Story, Thamma

Watched several movies over the past few days.

Coolie

  • This Rajnikanth starrer movie was watched on Prime Video
  • I liked the movie.
  • The movie focusses on Vizag or Visakhapatnam as the city and it is the center of the story.
  • There are several movies based on Chennai or Hyderabad or even Mumbai.
  • Visakhapatnam is new and it is a project to make it as focus and it will take time.
  • Gamechanger was based on Vizag and now this movie.
  • Definitely this movie worth watching.
  • How they make the dead bodies vaporize in 10 minutes smacks of similarity to "rapture".

Ek Deewane Ki Deewaniayat

  • This movie was watched on big screen.
  • This movie has definitely a "magnetic pull" after success of re release of "Sanam Teri Kasam".
  • Intense looks by Harshavardhan Rane and Sonam Bajwa in trailer pulls you to theatre.
  • Songs are also good.
  • Story is good. 
  • From trailer you feel Sonam Bajwa is big politician and Harshwardhan Rane is bodyguard or someone similar. But in story it is actually opposite.
  • Definitely worth watching.

The Taj Story

  • This movie was watched on big screen.
  • This movie tries to bellittle Mughal history and say that Mughals contributed nothing to India and Indian history.
  • I will say that this movie is worth watching.
  • To get alternate view of history.
  • Movies are make believe.
  • If movie like Bahubali is worth watching so will be movie like Taj Story.

Thamma

  • This movie was watched on big screen.
  • This movie intertwines vampire story with Indian legendary story of Maha Kali.
  • Also shows that certain regions are only accessible through "portals"
  • Else simple ariel photography would show the vampire locations.
  • Definitely can be watched once without any problem.

Love in Vietnam, Baaghi 4

Have watched watched the below movies over the past few days.

Love in Vietnam

  • This Shantanu Maheshwari Avneet Kaur movie was watched on the big screen.
  • I liked the movie and I had seen that the Vietnamese actress is also one top actor in Vietnam.
  • What they have made is remarkable.
  • It could be "inspired" from real stories.
  • With lakhs of Indians moving out the country annually, it is quite possible that several Indians could be involved in romantic affairs abroad and may be getting their foreign friends pregnant.
  • Even if it happens one in hundred thousand it still happens and it matters.
  • Too bad the movie was not a hit.
  • I personally felt it was well made.
  • You have to watch the full movie to draw conclusion.
  • If you walk though halfway you never get to know.

Baaghi 4

  • This Tiger Shroff movie was watched on big screen.
  • I liked the movie.
  • Tiger Shroff is quite dependable character.
  • He captures the West Coast of India vibes quite well. Not just Mumbai but the entire West Coast of India.
  • Action sequences are very well portrayed and captured.
  • Costumes are great.
  • Miss India heroine who makes debut also does well.
  • And so does Sanjay Dutt.
  • Definitely worth watching.

Conjuring, Param Sundari, Jugnuma, Lokah

Watched several more movies over the past few days

The Conjuring : Last Rites

  • This movie was watched on the big screen.
  • I liked the way the movie transports you to the 1960's and 1980's and they do it well.
  • Apart from the scary moments that is the most important aspect of the movie.
  • Definitely worth watching once at least.

Param Sundari

  • This movie was watched on the big screen.
  • It captures north south difference quite well.
  • Definitely a "feel good" kind of movie.
  • Can be watched without any problem

Jugnuma

  • This movie was watched on the big screen.
  • What they have shown in the movie is simple.
  • They have shown that hero attaches wings and flies. 
  • That could mean air travel and specifically international travel.
  • In the end entire family flies and that could mean they left for abroad.
  • Fires happens due to fireflies is too far fetched.
  • But it can mean that their genes get altered.
  • How and why? Nothing is mentioned but we can say that climate change could be reason.

Lokah Chapter 1

  • This Hindi dubbed Malayalam movie was watched on the big screen.
  • Great movie with great quality of finishing.
  • Definitely worth watching.
  • It reminded me of the movie Let Me In
  • But they have made Dracula like character as hero.
  • Definitely if they don't do evil things they are like hero or perhaps superhero.
  • But the character will continue to live after the ordinary humans pass away.
  • That is the story.

OG, Jolly LLB, Demon Slayer, Mirai

Watched several movies over the past few days. mentioned as below:

They Call him OG

  • This Pawan Kalyan Hindi dubbed movie of Telugu movie was watched on the big screen
  • Too good movie with lots of action.

  • Definitely worth watching.
  • Though his name is OG towards the end they have shown also mentioned is "Original Gangster"

Jolly LLB Part 3

  • This Jolly LLB movie was watched on the big screen.
  • Too good movie.
  • Full of entertainment by both Jollies.

Demon Slayer : Kimetsu no Yaiba Infinity Castle 

  • This Japanese Anime movie was watched on the big screen.
  • Too good movie with showing of an "infinity castle" which turns around and endless pathways emerge.
  • Definitely worth watching.

Mirai

  • This Mirai Hindi dubbed version of Telugu movie was watched on the big screen.
  • Mirai means the Kodanda of "Kodanda Ram" means the bow and arrow of Lord Ram who is one of the most important deities in Hindu culture.
  • They have also adopted the story of Thanos where you own all the stones and you become all powerful.
  • Here they have not made up stones but "books" totalling nine.
  • And final book makes you supreme being.
  • But the fact is in front of Lord Ram and Vishnu you are nobody.
  • Lord Vishnu is the most powerful being in the Universe and Lord Ram is Avatar and thus the villain perishes.

War 2, Bring Her Back, Nobody 2, The Roses

Watched four movies as mentioned above.

War 2

  • This movie was watched on big screen.
  • I liked the movie.
  • They have got 80's and 90's movie mix into 2020's.
  • The way they have shown how orphans who live in streets grow up to become secret agents of India.
  • It is okay for one time watch. 

Bring Her Back

  • This Australian classic horror movie was watched on big screen.
  • It can be considered the sequel to "Talk to Me" which was box office hit plus critically acclaimed.
  • This movie also can be watched without any problem.

  • Nobody Part 1 was too great action.
  • Nobody part 2 introduces the family and action continues into rural America.
  • Critics may pan this movie but I liked it.
  • Definitely can be watched once without any problem.
  • We should not compare Part 1 and Part 2 though. 

The Roses

  • This movie was watched on the big screen.
  • This movie turned out to be better than what I thought.
  • Their title is Rose and hence the movie is "The Roses" 
  • Too good action and story and performances.
  • Definitely deserves applause.
  • Worth watching.

Squid Game, Housefull 5A

Watched the above series and movie over the past few days.

Squid Game Seasons 2 and 3

  • I had seen Squid Game Season 1 in 2021.
  • And this Squid Game concludes with Season 2 and 3.
  • I have liked this concept of Squid Game and if we come to realise that almost all TV shows involving game play are like Squid Game.
  • Only thing is that in those games like "Kaun Banega Karodpati" people don't die. 
  • But they get "eliminated" means they exit the show and figuratively it is same as "death".
  • More we think about it, even real life is like Squid Game.
  • In real life people do die.
  • As a matter of fact death is the only reality.
  • People do not realise that one who is born into this world is bound to die.
  • Coming back to the series it is too good and worth watching.
  • The dialogue in the end "we are humans and not horses" is too good. 

Housefull 5A 

  • I had seen Housefull 5B on the big screen 
  • And this one I saw on Prime Video.
  • I liked the movie.
  • Okay to watch once definitely even if you have seen the other part.
  • Like I had read only in last 20 minutes or so is the difference there in 5A and 5B. 

Bhool Chuk Maaf, Mahavatar Narsimha, Weapons

Watched three movies as mentioned above.

Bhool Chuk Maaf

  • This movie was watched on Prime Video.
  • I liked the movie.
  • It is like a feel good movie where everything turns out well in the end. 

Mahavatar Narsimha

  • This movie was watched on the big screen.
  • It was better than what I had imagined.
  • This was so satisfying to the soul.
  • I could not help but imagine that Prahlada is Palestine and HiranyaKashyap is Israel and Lord Vishnu is God Almighty or Allah by whatever name you can call.
  •  Like we Indians say "Bhagwan Ke Ghar main deir hai Andher nahin"
  • Means in Lords home there is hope and not despair.
  • Worth watching where we can relate Ancient Indian stories in the present world. 

Weapons

  • This movie was watched on the big screen.
  • I liked the movie concept where the movie slowly reveals itself with characters.
  • Initially it is confusing but with each character the story becomes more and more clear.
  • Movie deals with witchcraft and how people become like weapons in the hands of the witch. 
  • The witch can use them as weapons as she pleases.
  •  In a sense this movie is like "Laapata Ladies" where you think movie is complex but actually is a simple story.

Jurassic World, F1, Saiyaara, Son of Sardaar

Watched few more movies as mentioned above.

Jurassic World : Rebirth

  • This movie was watched on the big screen
  • Too good movie.
  • It shows a bit like how imperialists go to equator type climate to "loot and plunder".
  • Dinosaurs just happen to be a "metaphor".

F1

  • This movie was watched on the big screen.
  • This Brad Pitt character in the movie is like a real "alpha male".
  • Difficult to beat an alpha male like Brad Pitt character.
  • Let us face it actual F1 is much more "dynamic" with involvement of hundreds if not thousands of people more.
  • But this movie does an honest effort to bring the characters of F1 to life.
  • Worth watching and there is no doubt that this movie getting highest rating in Book My Show.

Saiyaara

  • This movie was watched on the big screen.
  • What I felt that this movie does not show anything special or new.
  • Lovers getting separated and meeting again after few months or years has been shown in countless movies, movies like Jab We Met among others.
  • What this movie brings in is two new actors who became superstars literally overnight.
  • Needless to say those two actors must have gone into shock.
  • They would not have imagined it would have such a big hit.
  • Now a new life awaits them as their private lives would become public and they would be chased by "Paparazzi".

Son of Sardaar 2

  • This movie was watched on the big screen.
  • Very good performances by all actors.
  • I liked the movie.
  • Special mention I would like to make is of Deepak Dobriyal who is just unrecognizable as a Transgender.
  • I mean the movie got finished then I realized that Deepak Dobriyal was not erroneously mentioned in the credits. He is in the movie
  • Also the India Pakistan link is vital in the movie. Else the story would just "derail".

Gamechanger, Novocaine, Nilgiris

Watched the above three movies over the past few days.

Gamechanger

  • Watched this Ram Charan starring movie on Zee 5.
  • Too good movie. 
  • I saw intense acting by Ram Charan and other actors.
  • It is blend of Tamil and Telugu stars and is too good.
  • It will make you want to watch more performances by the actors like in their earlier movies.

Novocaine

  • This movie was watched on Prime Video.
  • Too good fast paced movie.
  • Movie was nice but just my personal opinion here that the tattoo artist did not deserve the beating which the hero gave.

Nilgiris : A Shared Wilderness

  • This was watched on the big screen
  • Too good movie and shown wildlife of Nilgiris which is near Ooty.
  • Perhaps one of its kind is this Nilgiris Biosphere Reserve and definitely needs to be preserved for future generations.

Kuberaa, Final Destination, 28 Years

Watched three more movies as mentioned above.

Kuberaa

  • Watched this movie on the bog screen.
  • What I found that some people have too much money and for time pass they make movies for the entertainment of us public.
  • Just like for time pass we watch movies, they for time pass make movies and they are rich.
  • Like even if someone gave us a lot of money we would not be able to make movies as we don't have the expertise and knowhow and skills.
  • So we leave the job of filmmaking to them and we enjoy the movie.
  • Another thin is Dhanush actor has a lot of fans in India and even if he portrays a beggar still people love his role.
  • Worth watching this movie like for mix of Bollywood and Telugu and Tamil cultures.

Final Destination

  • This movie was watched on the big screen.
  • Just the ways people die in the movie is terrifying to watch.
  • But definitely worth watching this movie.

28 Years Later

  • This movie was watched on the big screen.
  • This movie as experts have written shows the British people "wallowing in self pity".
  • After what they have done to the rest of the world for centuries, the British have definitely punished themselves with such a movie or at least shown themselves as such being punished.
  • Whether wiggling as worms, or mountain of skulls or living without technology for decades, means what is available across the water in European mainland is not available in the Island.
  • Subjected to sea blockade by the Europeans.
  • The British are severely punished with no signs of reprieve.
  • Worth watching this one.

Kanappa, Dragon. Sitaare

Watched three movies as mentioned above.

Kanappa

  • This Hindi dubbed Telugu move was watched on the big screen.
  • This movie shows from where the term "blind belief" might have originated.
  • This is the story of the true devotee of Lord Shiva who gouged out his eyes when he saw the eyes of his idol Lord Shiva crying tears of blood.
  • I mean amazing story and it is always there in our "sub conscious".
  • I mean we always feel we have "heard" about this story.
  • Maybe if rebirth as in Hindu religion is real then we might have heard about it in our previous life.
  • Certainly in this movie they have shown rebirth.
  • I do not want to give any more spoilers as to who he was in previous birth.
  • But this is no crazed madman, Kanappa could have been leader of the tribes but he chose the path of Bhakti towards his Lord Shiva.

How to train your Dragon

  • This movie was watched on the big screen.
  • What I found that this movie is full real with animation and even the sections of animation feel real.
  • Earlier Dragon movies were full of animation which made us realise those as animation only.
  • Worth watching.

Sitaare Zameen Par

  • This movie was watched on the big screen.
  • Amir Khan along with his gang are too good.
  • You might just fall in love with the characters.
  • Aamir Khan had made a gem of a movie even if it just a remake.
  • Worth watching this one.

Khauf

  • This web series was watched on Prime Video.

Flight Risk 

  • This movie was watched on Prime Video.
  • Short movie and Mark Wahlberg portrays a negative role.
  • Okay to be watched once without any problems.

Baby John, Raid 2, Terrifier

Watched three movies as mentioned above.

Baby John

  • This movie was watched on Prime Video.
  • I liked the role of Varun Dhawan
  • Too good action, wonderful dancer and terrific action star.

  • Movie is also worth watching.

Raid 2

  • This movie was watched on the big screen.
  • I liked the movie.

Gladiator, Superboys, Mickey, Monkey, Crazxy, Mere Husband

Watched several movies as mentioned above and below

Gladiator II

  • This movie was watched on Prime Video.
  • This is excellent movie and is clearly anti-war movie.
  • Though much war is shown in the movie it shows a stage comes when people get "tired" of empire building and high taxes and senseless killings and it just stops.
  • Nobody can stop the "wrath of the people" and Govt just caves in. Even in Rome.

Superboys of Malegaon

  • This movie was watched on big screen.
  • Too good performances by the actors especially Adarsh Gourav who helms the title role or main role.
  • Worth watching this movie.

Mickey 17

  • Too good movie was watched on the big screen.
  • This is also a clear anti-war movie.
  • It shows even if you have the capability of total annihilations you should not do it.
  • You should do what is right.
  • And take the local population into light and especially should not hurt young ones.

The Monkey

  • This was also watched on big screen.
  • Too good movie.
  • The Monkey comes from nowhere and rules the screen
  • Should I say The Monkey even suppresses the hero Theo James.
  • The Monkey is too good.
  • You can fall in love with the total psycho character of "The Monkey". 

Crazxy

  • This was watched on big screen.
  • Too good role and performance by Sohum Shah.
  • This movie is like "Lapata Ladies".
  • You think what the movie is all about. And a mystery from the poster or trailer.
  • But when you watch the movie you realise the movie is not that complex and actually a simple story.
  • Worth watching.

Mere Husband Ki Biwi

  • This movie was watched on big screen.
  • And I should say this is clearly for Arjun Kapoor fans like me.
  • Yes count me in, I am Arjun Kapoor fan.
  • Too good movie and worth watching for all the funny moments and definitely a "feel good" kind of movie.

Mrs, Vadh, Chaava, Captain America, Bridget Jones, Deva

Watched sevaral movies as mentioned above.

Mrs

  • This movie was watched on Zee5 OTT platform.
  • Too good movie.
  • It shows traditional Indian family and responsibilities of "Bahu" means "daughter in law"

Vadh

  • This movie was watched on Netflix.
  • Too good movie.
  • Movie feels "very real" except last 30 minutes where it takes a "theatrical turn" and makes us realise that only in movie can imagination run wild and anything is possible.

Chaava

  • This was watched on big screen.
  • Movie is a very good attempt to portray the Chaava i.e. Chatrapati Shivaji son story.
  • Vicky Kaushal has given his "heart and soul" for the role and perhaps so has the director of the movie.
  • Worth watching.

Captain America : Brave New World

  • This was watched on the big screen.
  • This is too good movie as to how people can get manipulated and controlled in the age of AI and latest software in smartphones.
  • Main thing is Harrison Ford as President of United States.
  • In 1996-97 I have seen Air Force One on big screen several times.
  • Now 29 years later it was fun watching Harrison Ford as President once more.
  • History repeats and how.
Bridget Jones : Mad About the Boy
  • Watched this movie on the big screen.
  • I will say this movie embraces "multicultural Britain" which is an actual project in real life and has been in the works for decades.
  • For many "multicultural Britain" is the way to go for the future.
  • That is for the good for Britain and the world.
  • Now Bridget Jones also embraces the same even if doesn't go with the theme.
Deva
  • This movie was watched on big screen.
  • It is a remake movie of Malayalam named "Mumbai Police"
  • And stays true to theme.
  • Movie is a serious movie and there is no comedy.
  • And surprising twist makes all viewers shocked.
  • Okay for a one time watch.

Sanam Teri Kasam, Companion, Badass Ravikumar, Ramayana

Watched four movies as mentioned above

Sanam Teri Kasam

  • After this movie got re-released and became a hit, I searched for it online and found it on JioCinema.
  • Went ahead and watched it.
  • Realised many good songs are part of this movie and this movie is definitely worth watching.

Companion

  • This English language movie was watched on the big screen.
  • Too good movie.
  • Before watching never realised what this movie would be all about.
  • Was thinking it would be set in 1950's from the poster but this is futuristic sci-fi thriller and only what is missing is flying cars.
  • Worth watching.

Badass Ravikumar

  • Badass Ravikumar is an Indian agent and in case of crisis he is summoned.
  • Watched this on big screen.
  • Main thing is that they have made it as comedy and they claim it also (in initial credits) that please do not apply your mind too much.
  • Creative liberties have been applied and people break into song and dance at the drop of a hat.
  • Action and special effects are also too good.
  • Much of movie is shot in Oman.

Ramayana

  • This 1990's animated movie was watched in Hindi language in the big screen.
  • Though being of 1990's this movie feels quite new and colourful.
  • Ramayana story can be seen in little more than 2 hours.
  • We cannot compare it to Japanese Anime where there are lot of episodes.
  • In one movie the story is covered.

Baida, Khel Khel, Loveyapa, Skyforce

Watched four movies as mentioned above.

Baida

  • This Odia movie was watched on big screen.
  • Totally enjoyed the movie.
  • This movie shows an undead "Doctor" who leaves in caves in jungle and present day Doctor uses his services.
  • But the "ancient Doctor" takes away a life in return.
  • It is nice horror cinema.

Khel Khel Mein

  • This movie was watched on Netflix.
  • Too good movie. With lots of drama.
  • Without the "gay angle" the movie loses it core point and comedy point.

Loveyapa

  • This movie was watched on big screen.
  • Too good drama movie.
  • Junaid Khan acting is too good.
  • Khushi Kapoor also is very bold actress and does commendable role.
  • She has to catch up a lot to reach Jhanvi Kapoor her sister who has got a many roles ahead of her.
  • Star kids have talent like no other.

Skyforce

  • This movie was watched on big screen.
  • This movie shows how "wars" truly are.
  • Military fights military and sometimes before general people realise the war ends.
  • Then there is general enquiry as to what went right and wrong and there is analysis around the world.

Mufasa, Fateh, Emergency, Marco

Watched four more movies over the past few days

Mufasa

  • This realistic adventure movie was watched on big screen.
  • It is like the previous Lion King movie where it surpasses animation.
  • Animation taken to new level.

Fateh

  • This Sonu Sood starring and directed movie was watched on big screen.
  • Too good movie.
  • Sonu Sood is excellent actor and director.
  • I felt the movie was worth it.
  • He also does social service in the movie by indirectly bringing cyber criminals in focus.

Emergency

  • This Kangna Ranaut starring and directed movie was watched on the big screen.
  • Indira Gandhi was too good and Kangna does a good job of portraying her.
  • Indira in India and India is Indira like they used to say.
  • Needless to say much research must have gone into making of the movie.
  • And it was not getting released because BJP must be thinking that people might get sympathy for Congress after watching the movie.

Marco

  • This Malayalam movie was watched on big screen.
  • Too good movie.
  • Malayalam movie once again proves they are class apart and they will portray all religious groups as equals.
  • I mean all are equal in winning and suffering.
  • Unlike other movies where Muslims and Christians are mainly shown as villians. 
  • Or are ignored completely.
  • Or are shown as poor and given side roles.
  • Definitely worth watching and more Malayalam movies should be watched.

Call Me Bae, Day One, Pushpa 2, Kraven

Watched four movies as mentioned above.

Call Me Bae

  • This is web series and watched on Prime Video.
  • I liked the web series.
  • Worth watching.
  • Looking forward for Season 2.

Day One : Quiet Place

  • Watched this horror movie on Prime Video.
  • Worth watching.
  • Creatures are also shown in great detail.

Pushpa 2

  • This Allu Arjun starrer movie was watched on big screen.
  • Allu Arjun proves once more that he is a class of his own.
  • Too good action.
  • Allu Arjun presence is enough for a good movie.
  • Worth watching.
  • This movie also shows how family is important.
  • Needless to say emphasis on family is very important in Hindustani movies especially Telugu movies more than any other language.

Kraven The Hunter

  • This movie spans continents and is worth watching.
  • I watched this on the big screen.
  • A superhero movie with Dracula kind of vibes.
  • I mean with the location and stuff.
  • Worth watching.
