Gangubai, Radhe Shyam, RRR, Fantastic Beasts

Watched several movies over the last one and half months.

Gangubai Kathiawadi

• This movie was watched on Netflix.
• I liked the movie.
• Great award winning performance by Alia Bhatt.
• Worth watching.
  

Radhe Shyam

• This movie was watched on Netflix.
• Too good movie.
• I liked the performance by Prabhas and others.
• Movie has several sub-stories.
• Like science vs palmistry.
• 99% vs 100% and the 1% who make their own history and they actually run the world.
  

RRR

• This movie was watched on big screen.
• A movie like this is worth to be enjoyed on the big screen.
• The scene where wild animals are unleashed on the British camp is too good.
• It was surprise actually.
• To understand the psyche of Indians and South East Asians one should watch this movie.
• I liked the movie. Worth watching.
  

Fantastic Beasts and the Secrets of Dumbledore

• Watched this movie on big screen.
• Frankly this movie was a big disappointment.
• How a lamb is made to bow down and choose the supreme wizard beats me.
• But okay to be watched once.
• But there are several more movies one can enjoy if you ask me.
  

Badhai Do, Kashmir Files, 83

Watched three movies as mentioned above.

Badhai Do

• This movie was watched on Netflix.
• I liked the movie.
• Emphasis is put on long term consequences of same sex relationship and those are bound to get into problem if one partner id "unfaithful".
• But people can lead normal lives if the allow their partners to lead lives they always did.
• Shot in actual locations in Uttarakhand this is must watch.
  

The Kashmir Files

• This movie has a lot of buzz.
• So I watched it on Telegram after getting the link from Youtube.
• Could not wait to watch it on OTT and did not want to waste 200 bucks.
  
• I found the movie equal to vomit.
• Only a person who likes to eat vomit will like it.
• Movie is sick to say the least.
• It is like a snuff movie and violent porn movie.
• How anyone can like it baffles me.
  
• But it is not one sided.
• It covers all aspects relating to Kashmir and even covers other situations like Bhopal Gas tragedy and the like.
• Where it fails is that it glorifies ancient past and ignores few centuries of history.
  

83

• This movie was watched on Tata Play and Disney+ Hotstar.
• This movie is highly polished version of the interpretation of Indian victory.
• India took center stage slowly but surely.
• India's respectability increased following World Cup 83 victory.
• Movie could not have been complete without Boman Irani commentary during the matches, thats what I felt.
• And too good performances of Ranvir Singh who plays Kapil Dev and the manager played by Pankaj Tripathi
  

Ukraine On Fire, All of Us are Dead, A Quiet Place 2, Venom, Ertugrul Episode 41

Watched the above series and movies

Ukraine On Fire

• This documentary was watched on Rumble.
• It shows America has totally got itself involved in Ukraine and problem in Ukraine is due to America mainly. Not Europe but USA
• Made by Oliver Stone this is a must watch.
  

All of Us are Dead

• This South Korean 12 part series was watched on Netflix.
• Each episode is of almost 1 hour.
• Worth watching.
• Essentially it is  zombie apocalypse scenario movie like Train to Busan
• The main thing is here that a virus runs wild.
• Not a virus made in a biolab but made by a single teacher cum scientist in a school laboratory.
  
• Also here they have shown emergence of a "Superman" or "vampire" kind of being who is neither human nor a zombie. That happens when the virus changes its characteristics.
  
• They don't call superman but "hombie" like a human plus zombie.
  

A Quiet Place 2

• This movie is better than original. Watched on Amazon Prime Video.
  
• Like I had said in the original when they visit the town cars are neatly arranged.
• Here there is a carnage when the aliens attack.
• But they are sensitive to high frequency. That is shown.
• Maybe that is like the movie "Mars Attacks" where they cannot take in the song "Only you" and their heads burst.
• By the way in All of Us are Dead series they have also shown this sensitivity of Zombies to certain frequency.
  

Venom : Let there be Carnage

• This movie was watched on Netflix.
• A small movie but packs quite a punch.
• Woody Harrelson becomes a "red Venom" and then loses it.
• It happens really quick and that black Venom prevails.
  

Ertugrul Season 4 Episode 41

• After a long time I have watched Ertugrul
• Last I had watched till Episode 32
• Now Ertugrul has taken Karachisar castle. And captured Commander Ares.
• Titan has gathered hard core mercenaries in Episode 41.
• Scene has shifted to Seljuk capital Konya.
• Sadettin Kopek is in action and has got a close associate of the Sultan killed.
• Cannot wait to see what happens next.
  

Kidnap, Texas Chainsaw, Escape Room, Gehraiyaan

Watched four movies as mentioned above.

Kidnap

• Starring Imran Khan this 2008 movie is must watch.
• Also starring Sanjay Dutt and Minisha Lamba who have pivotal roles.
• Watched on Shemaroo Me and Tata Play.
  

Texas Chainsaw Massacre

• Watched this 2022 version of the movie on Netflix.
• I liked the movie.
• Really nice ans worth watching.
• The real star of the movie is Leatherface.
  

Escape Room : Tournament of Champions

• This 2022 movie is really nice to be watched and enjoyed.
• I had seen Part 1 of the movie on big screen and this is the sequel.
• Watched on Netflix
  

Gehraiyaan

• This 2022 movie was watched on Amazon Prime Video.
• I must say that all actors have done great roles.
• But the murder or accident would have been caught if there was interrogation.
• So here Rajat Sharma saves the day and Deepika Padukone by (probably) twisting the facts and witnessses. That is not shown in detail.
  

Rescue, Candyman, Im not done yet

Watched three movies/ series as above

Rescue

• This movie was seen on Tata Play Binge Bollywood Premiere Channel.
• Movie about how a broker is captured by three girls in an apartment and is able to escape.
• Movie is okay for a timepass watch.
  

Candyman

• This is a real horror movie.
• This was watched on Amazon Prime Video.
  
• It captures how a black man becomes the candyman.
• Obviously there is supernatural show in the movie.
• Else the movie cannot work
• Only a mere human cannot commit the crimes like Candyman can do.
  

I'm not done yet - Kapil Sharma

• This Kapil Sharma standup show was watched on Netflix.
• I must say that Kapil Sharma has plenty of jokes with respect to drinking alcohol.
• In the one hour episode 15-20 minutes must have been with regard to drinking.
  
• And he adds some "Tadka" to his stories.
• Like he says something and then tells it is not true.
• So much so that iin the end you do not know what is true and what is not.
• But okay to watch once. To get a dose of Kapil.
• Even if you don't watch his main show it still is good timepass.
  

Malignant, Tadap, Jai Mummy Di

Watched three movies as mentioned above.

Malignant

• Watched this movie on Amazon Prime Video.
• I liked the movie. Worth watching once.
  
• This is a true horror movie.
• But according to me it defies science.
• What is shown in the movie violates all, physics, chemistry and biology.
• No way it can happen in real life.
  

Tadap

• This movie was watched on Tata Play Binge and Disney + Hotstar.
• Movie is great movie for Ahan Shetty.
• He becomes the victim in the movie and is also able to feature in several action sequences.
• Movie shows something which may be quite real in real life but movie makes may consider it as sacreilage and will not dare to feature such kind of story.
• They may only like to feature "textbook" love stories.
  

Jai Mummy Di

• This movie was watched on Tata Play Bollywood Premiere channel.
• Movie shows a slice of Delhi life.
• This is comedy movie.
• Worth watching once.
• Both Sunny Singh the hero and Alok Nath are wasted.
• All actors have done good job but could have been more.
  

Amma Ki Boli, Gone Kesh, 4 Play, Justin Bieber, Paharganj, Ekees Tareekh

Watched six movies as mentioned above.

Amma Ki Boli : Full on Family

Gone Kesh

• This movie was watched on Tata Sky recording box on Bollywood Premiere channel

• Movie is shot in Siliguri.
  
• Worth watching. It is like a survival movie.
  

4 Play

• This movie was watched on Tata Sky Binge App and Hungama Play.
• This is a Hindi dubbed movie from Telugu and so the Hindi is a bit like Hyderabadi language.
• If you can watch the first few minutes of the movie then you can watch it full and trust me when you see the whole package you will like it.
  

Justin Bieber Our World

• This is one good documentary.
• This was watched on Amazon Prime Video.
• It shows how in times of crisis like Corona virus pandemic, Justin Bieber manages to pull off one of the most sensational concerts in LA. 
• Hats off to Justin.
  

Paharganj
