Mid Day Meeal, Doctor G, Black Adam

Watched three movies as mentioned above. All movies were watched on the big screen.

Mid Day Meeal

  • This movie needs to be watched for the fact that the movie is shot in unspoilt beautiful locations in Chhatisgarh and Raipur.
  • So the movie can be excused for bad acting and action sequences.

Doctor G

  • This movie is so good that it is the "true IMAX experience".
  • Tell me what does IMAX hope to contribute to a movie going person.
  • It hopes to contribute a truly "immersive" experience.
  • Trust me this movie provides such a thing.
  • You feel you are actually inside the movie with the actors along with them.
  • In their laughter and joys and scenes.
  • Such good is the movie that you forget you are in a cinema hall.
  • And you are actually with the actors who have given such stellar performances.

Black Adam

  • This is totally a great action movie which can be watched by full family.
  • Set in a location like Lebanon which has sea coast plus mountains.
  • That is the hometown of Black Adam and the king Ack-Toun.
  • Movie has great special effects.
  • Movie will have sequels and audience cannot get enough.
  • The cinema I went to had audience with 95% occupancy in 2nd day and audience was not willing to budge from the seats.
  • The were waiting for more like Marvel does, extras during end credits.
  • Audience loved it. Definitely felt like that. They wanted more.

Kantara, Last Film Show, Halloween Ends

Watched three movies as mentioned above. All were watched on big screen

Kantara

  • Watched the Hindi version of the movie.
  • I liked the movie.
  • Though the movie is full of adultery and alcohol, it still is must watch.
  • This is what life actual is in the rural regions of India.
  • It is part factual. The fact that one dons the dress of a "deity" and deity immerses inside him has been seen in my native place also.
  • Last 30 minutes not to missed. You cannot even blink your eye.
  • You blink and you miss.

Last Film Show

  • This movie is so good that it really deserves an Oscar as it is India's official entry to the Oscar.
  • Movie shows how movies move from physical reels to computerization and digitiation
  • Reels end up as plastic items and boxes and metal things end up as spoons and plates.
  • Only in Gujarat such a movie is possible as there is backwardness and industrialization in one place.
  • Other places either may be too advanced in thoughts or may not be such indiustrialized as Gujarat.
  • Movie is must watch.
  • The fact that such a movie can be made shows the greatness of cinema.
  • It is a lot of movies rolled into one.
  • There is a little bit of "Lunchbox" movie as well.

Halloween Ends

  • This movie shows the might of people when they come together as a society and decide to end the menace of Michael Myers once and for all.
  • Movie is okay for a one time watch.
  • Movie picks up pace after 30-40 minutes and does not stop till its end.

Vikram Vedha, Modiji, Tiranga

Watched three more movies as below:

Vikram Vedha

  • This movie was watched on big screen.
  • After watching this movie I came to conclusion that without Brahmins in this world, world or India would not survive.
  • People especially the warrior class would fight till the death and end.
  • Even the warrior class have to survive. And hence they resort to corruption.
  • Corruption makes the world goes around but it leads to tension and friction and clashes.
  • Brahmins make this world livable by diverting the rage into godly affairs.
  • Even if not the world at least it is applicable to India.

Modiji Ki Beti

  • This movie was watched on big screen.
  • The purpose of this movie is propaganda.
  • Especially when Gujarat and Himachal elections are due.
  • The movie shows that all Indian daughters or women are Modiji or PM Modi's daughters.
  • Like we used to say earlier all Indians are my brothers and sisters, the mantra they use in this movie is all Indian women are Modiji's daughter.
  • BJP and RSS knows that Indian women are 50% of voting public and women can be easily manipulated and swayed by emotions.
  • And hence this movie.
  • But okay this movie can be watched once.
  • This is shot in hilly areas maybe Himachal or Uttarakhand and those have been passed off as Kashmir and PoK.

Code Name Tiranga

  • This movie was watched on big screen.
  • The action sequences are very well choreographed.
  • Especially the last single shooter screen where an entire barracks is taken out by our female assasin and heroine.
  • The hero is like a boy toy. No role for the hero in this movie.
  • Movie is okay to be watched once.

Chakki, Paradise, Red

Watched three more movies as mentioned above.

Chakki

  • This movie was watched on big screen where I was the only person in the theatre.
  • I liked the movie.
  • Hero Rahul Bhatt is too good.
  • How he faces the struggle is shown for electric bill being overcharged.

Ticket to Paradise

  • This movie was watched on big screen and only two persons including me were in theatre.
  • I liked the movie.
  • Great island beauty is shown.
  • And what would the island Bali do without American tourists. That is shown.
  • Worth watching at least once.

One Piece Film : Red

  • This Japanese movie with English subtitles was watched on big screen
  • Amazing animation/ anime movie.
  • Worth watching according to me.
  • This is also like Matrix movie where something happens in real world which is quite contradictory to what happens in a world where people are transported after listening to song of the character "UTA"

Darling, Ponniyin, Goodbye, Hindutva

Watched several movies over past few days. Also mentioned below:

Don't Worry Darling

  • This movie was watched on big screen.
  • I liked the movie.
  • The movie starts as mystery. The people are based in an artificial city which suspected to beeither nuclear testing site or something like Raccoon City from Resident Evil.
  • But turns out it is neither.
  • It is like Matrix. Where people pay to be in an artificial environment where they can be happy.
  • Hell it can be like Metaverse.

Ponniyin Selvan 1

  • This movie was watched on big screen.
  • I liked the movie.
  • Shows 1000 year old past of area of Tamil Nadu where wars and struggle for consolidation was common.
  • Sequel is also coming.

Goodbye

  • This movie was watched on big screen.
  • Shows the last rites in a Hindu family based in North India preferably Delhi.
  • Worth watching once.

Hindutva

  • This movie is not that bad as it may seem or sound.
  • I liked the movie.
  • The movie is like Archies as it shows struggles between two groups in a college.
  • But the twist is Hindu and Muslim politics is shown.

Everything, Crawdads, Nile, Chup, Dhoka

Watched five movies as mentioned above.

Everything everywhere all at once

  • This movie was watched on big screen.
  • This movie is like Matrix (original) but full of comedy.
  • Worth watching once.

Where the Crawdads Sing

  • This movie tests your beliefs.
  • Is it possible for a young girl to survive on her own out in the backwaters on her own with people of the town having full knowledge for 15 years.
  • Also what is shown in the movie the accident is it possible to be done and kept hidden even in year 1969.
  • But okay to be watched once.

Death on the River Nile

  • This was watched on Disney+Hotstar
  • This movie featuring Herculs Poirot is also okay to be watched once.
  • Visuals of Egypt's River Nile in 1930's is shown
  • Initial scene of First World War is also must watch

Chup

  • This was watched on big screen.
  • I can compare this movie to Darr Movie which had come in 1990's.
  • Sunny Deal was hero and Shah Rukh Khan was anti-hero.
  • In this movie, Dulqeer Salman can be like Shah Rukh Khan.
  • Dulqeer Salman is also as much popular among youngsters.
  • He has unique style and does not try to copy anyone.

Dhoka : Around the corner

  • This movie was watched on big screen.
  • This movie shows even with low budget you can make an excellent movie.
  • From this movie I learned or realised two things
    • One is that actor has always to be busy and that adds to his body of work and he or she can just grow bigger and bigger. Instead of doing one big movie in 2-3 years, actor is better off doing several projects in a year. That will add to his or her popularity.
    • Next is that actors may make big budget movie which may not be that successful and so they can make low budget movie following not so success run and then recover more than what they have spent in this new movie. And that will balance them.
  • This movie also acts as a platform to launch Khushali Kumar who resembles as sister of Divya Khosla Kumar . But they are sister-in laws, not sisters, Google Search shows.

Middle Class Love, Siya, Matto Ki Saikal, Jahan Chaar Yaar

Watched four movies as  mentioned above. All movies were watched on the big screen

Middle Class Love

  • This movie is like Archies or Student of the Year.
  • One need not wait for "official Archies"
  • One can watch this movie.
  • This is shot near Nainital and great landscapes are captured.
  • Worth watching on big screen

Siya

  • This is based on what happens in real life.
  • Things like rape and cremation and killing of witnesses.
  • Bit serious movie.

Matto Ki Saikal

  • This movie should be watched for tremendous acting by Prakash Jha.
  • He has worked as labourer and portrays the character flawlessly.
  • It has comedy plus serious bits.
  • Worth watching once.

Jahan Chaar Yaar

  • This movie needs to be watched to see how parties can turn ones life upside down.
  • This case is of party happening in Goa.
  • Goa is the ultimate an Indian can think of partying without going abroad and that is a fact.
  • This movie shows that.
  • Worth watching once.

All the above movies I could watch because it was on big screen. In cinema theater we can pass the time and watch the movie quite easily. If it was mobile or TV or computer I could not have found the time or inclination to watch the movies.
