Lootcase

Madam Chief Minister, The Little Things, Misbehaviour
Watched three movies as mentioned above.
Madam Chief Minister
- This movie was watched at PVR Vega City Mall at Bannerghatta Road.
- I liked the movie.
- I felt the movie was promising but then it crash lands.
- I mean the movie is made under Chief Minister Yogi Adityanath patronage what can you expect.
- They have trashed the character of Madam Chief Minister and people die left right center.
- Also they have made the female Chief Minister as a dubious character who in the ends keeps her husband in a vegetative state for the sake of power.
- So, they have trashed women leaders as well.
- What can you expect of BJP and RSS not only they are anti caste but anti women as well.
- Movie is okay as no movies are coming and this movie gives good entertainment.
- Worth watching once at least.
The Little Things
- This movie was watched at PVR Forum Mall.
- You see this movie and feel there was never a pandemic in the first place.
- I will say Covid 19 was an "artificial manufactured news of a pandemic" just to get rid of Real Donald Trump.
- And now Donald Trump is gone as President, things are back to normal or so it seems.
- But Trump never said the Pandemic was fake. What he kept repeating was "China Virus" but that could not save him as well.
- Movie is worth watching.
- But when Jared Leto was innocent why did he have to die I could not understand.
Misbehaviour
- This movie was watched at PVR Vega City.
- I liked the movie.
- It is worth watching.
- You can review from any website and I believe the reviews are genuine.
- But Greg Kinnear role is exaggerated. He does not have that big role in the movie as is made out from the trailer.
Master, Monster Hunter
- Watched the movies as mentioned above in the screens.
Master
- This movie Tamil version with subtitles was watched on Amazon Prime Video.
- I must say the movie is full of great performances.
- You know the villian is all evil but still you fall in love with the character.
- More than halfway into the movie you see Vijay the hero taking action on the shopkeepers who are supplying free goodies to the villians people.
- While watching those scenes I thought only in Tamil movie we can see something like that.
- I mean what is the fault of the shopkeepers. They are just trying to be part of the system which always existed.
- Why attack them.
- But when the villian takes action on the heroes close colleagues you get a sense why the villian is dangerous and needs to be eliminated.
- Thus the Director wants to eliminate the guilt on the viewers minds.
- Movie is worth watching according to me.
Monster Hunter
- This movie was watched on the big screen at Cinepolis, SJR Mail, Bannerghatta Road.
- I liked the movie.
- The direction of the movie is superb.
- Part of the job of the Director is to make the audience believe that what he is showing is actually happening.
- The stuff viewers see should appear real.
- Whether it is dragons or huge spiders crawling out of narrow holes.
- This movie has Chinese producers and generally speaking Chinese and Russian and Iranian people are against Americans.
- I mean they have respect and appreciate US military but still they will show them taking a beating.
- This movie shows that and US military battling monsters from a parallel universe but no so successfully.
- Tony Jaa is a real monster hunter.
- So what if Tony Jaa is Thai, he is Asian and Chinese will definitely make Asian as hero.
Taandav
- Watched this web series "Taandav" on Amazon Prime Video.
- I feel the series was just getting "warmed up" much like Saif Ali Khan in the last episode of the series.
- Then there was outcry and present ruling Govt. stepped in to play "spoilsport", now I feel the series will have sequels but they will be more or less 'under scrutiny'.
- Don't expect more fireworks from the series anymore.
- As more famous people are involved, they may have to become more "compliant" if not toeing the Govt line fully.
- But series is worth watching anyways.
- It keeps you engrossed as to "what is next".

Baaghi 3
- Watched this movie Baaghi 3 on Hotstar.
- Movie is shot in Serbia but they have made it as Syria.
- Movie deals with human trafficking for becoming human bombs.
- It would have been better if the movie would have dealt with just human trafficking.
- Rather than becoming suicide bombers just human trafficking would have been enough.
- Why would some people take people from India Pakistan Nepal to make them human bombs.
- Doesn't make sense.
- Are there not people in their own countries to become human bombs?
- Also towards the end credits it shows the movie is a copy of "Vettai" Tamil/Telugu movie.
- Coming back to action. Mind blowing action is shown in the movie.
- I will say Tiger Shroff does not need to do Rambo First Blood movie.
- As he has several movies where the action level is full 100 times what you may see in a traditional family Hindi movie.
- Do not try to get a sense of action.
- Just leave your brain outside the theatre.
- But lucky for me I watched it on Hotstar.
- But still it may prove to be waste of your precious time.
- I could afford the time and have no regrets.
- Movie is okay for a one time watch.

Bolo Hau
- Watched this movie "Bolo Hau" means "Say Yes" is Deccani language at PVR Vega City Mall.
- I liked the movie. Worth watching once.
- Movie is full of Hyderabad dialect or Deccani Urdu.
- Movie deals with how the women folk are forced to marry according to family wishes and bury their love lives forever.
- Family sees status and background (caste and family) before marriage and that is a fact wherever the region lies in India or Indian sub continent.
- In the movie twist happens due to Gullu Dada or Gullu Baba who does "palti" or flip flop and works for love.
- But in reality it may not happen and the world would be full of people whose love stories have come crashing down and remain unfulfilled.
Laxmii
- Watched this movie "Laxmii" on Hotstar.
- Actually my Hotstar 1 year subscription is expiring on February 3, 2021.
- I do not know if I would be renewing again.
- So I making a point to watch a few movies before it expires.
- I still have yet to watch the last Season of American Horror Story (1984).
- It may not be possible now but if I renew I can watch it.
- Coming back to the movie "Laxmii" which was going to be titled as Laxmii Bomb but they changed the movie before release.
- The reason may not be respect to Laxmi Goddess but respect for the transgender community.
- As Laxmii in the movie is the story of a transgender who gets killed in the movie and comes to possess the body of Asif portrayed by Akshay Kumar.
- I will say there is no point criticising the movie.
- The movie shows Indian culture and Indian mentality in its raw form.
- That is who we Indians are.
- That is reality.
- If you cannot accept it then it is a problem.
- The movie is not the problem.
- Movie is definitely worth watching once.
