Chengiz, Suzume, Evil Dead

Watched three more movies as mentioned above

Chengiz

  • This Bengal movie in Hindi dubbing was watched on big screen.
  • It is too good for action sequences.
  • Worth watching once without any problem.

Suzume

  • This Japanese Anime movie shows how the life goes in a loop when saving the world and another dimension is involved.
  • The plot is only made visible in last 5-10 minutes.
  • The animation is too good and worth watching

Evil Dead Rise

  • This movie was watched on big screen.
  • It hows how the "Evil" has "risen" and takes over the "dead".
  • Somehow the "evil" defies all laws of time and space and physics and chemistry and biology.
  • That is why I feel that "real action" movies have more horror than actual horror movies.
  • Action movies show more killings and "sending people to the other side" than horror movies.

Shakuntalam, Super Mario, Kisi Ki

Watched three movies as mentioned above

Shakuntalam

  • Watched the Hindi version of the movie on big screen.
  • I liked the movie though the pace of the movie is very slow.
  • Also in ice cold snow falling environment the Sadhus and actors wear nothing but loincloth. 
  • How is it possible I though.
  • Surely the clothes of the plains and snow clad areas would be different

The Super Mario Bros. Movie

  • This movie deserves all the accolades it is been getting.
  • And the box office success that it is.
  • I really liked the movie where they get transported to another world and end up saving it.

Kisi Ki Bhai Kisi Ki Jaan

  • This movie is too good for the action sequences.
  • Also we get to see three types of display of Salman Khan.
  • One with long hair, one with short hair and finally with the clean shaven look.
  • Worth watching.

Dungeons and Dragons, Coldplay, Sword Art Online

Watched three movies as mentioned above

Dungeons and Dragons : Honor among thieves

  • Watched this movie on the big screen and somehow felt that this movie is too well made.
  • I mean it captures the "fantasy world" like in Middle Ages with magic and villians like those shown in "Game of Thrones".
  • All people are very well suited to their respective roles.
  • Worth watching.

Coldplay: Music of the Spheres: Live at River Plate

  • Watched this movie actually it is a rock show on big screen.
  • Just like BTS and Billie Eilish shows I had seen this was also nice.
  • Worth watching. 
  • For all the hit great songs Coldplay performed.

Sword Art Online:The Movie Progressive:Scherzo of Deep Night

  • This Japanese Anime movie was watched on big screen.
  • Worth watching was what I felt just like all other anime movies watched recently.

Gumraah, Inspection, Renfield

Watched three movies as mentioned above.

Gumraah

  • This movie was watched on the big screen.
  • Somehow you cannot get the suspense till the very end.
  • The heroine cop gets duped and can do nothing as she was sent on "special deputation" for the case.

The Inspection

  • This movie was watched on big screen.
  • It is like the movie "Full Metal Jacket"
  • It shows the tough life in the barracks and what is like to train to be a marine.
  • Worth watching.

Renfield

  • This movie shows the story of the Dracula and his assistant Renfield.
  • Worth watching for all the action sequences.
  • Renfield has a change of mind when Dracula's true intention is known and that total chaos and "taking over" of the world.

Rambo Circus, Pope's Exorcist, Bholaa

Watched several movies over past few days.

Rambo Circus

  • This actual Circus I watched with live performances.
  • I will recommend all to attend it if possible.
  • Circus actors make you feel so happy.
  • In fact they make you so happy that you may go into depression later.
  • You may feel how can I live without seeing them again and again.
  • One should guard against such feeling as it can destroy you.

Pope's Exorcist

  • This movie proves that evil exists.
  • It has reference to Spanish inquisition and tells that it was work of Devil.
  • And now the Devil wants to take over the church and the world.
  • And who better than to take over the Vatican Chief Exorcist.
  • Worth watching this movie.
  • Towards the end they show that there are 199 more sites which the Church needs to take care of excluding the one shown in the movie.

Bholaa

  • This action packed movie was watched on big screen.
  • Worth watching once.
  • But the original Kaithi was better I felt.
  • Still some subtle changes have been done in this movie and it may want you revisit "Kaithi" movie once more.

Mrs Chatterjee, Kabzaa, Zwigato

Watched two more movies as mentioned above.

Mrs Chatterjee vs Norway

  • This movie has to be seen to be believed.
  • Supposedly based on true story.
  • Even if you know the story or read about the story it is not the same as watching the story.
  • Only after watching the story you can imagine the pain of the mother and why her troubles will not stop in India. 
  • She still had to fight for her kids in India.
  • Also Jim Sarbh does tremendous acting as Norway lawyer and manages to convince (the audience) towards the end that children would be well looked after by Norway Govt.

Kabzaa

  • This movie was watched on big screen.
  • This movie is like KGF movie.
  • I guess you do not have to wait for KGF 3, you can consider this as KGF 3 and watch it.
  • Action is too great.
  • Shivrajkumar makes entry towards the end and more will be shown in Kabzaa 2 the sequel.

Zwigato

  • This movie was watched on big screen.
  • Movie is shot in Bhubaneswar and worth watching.
  • Movie shows the pain of delivery persons who work for minimum wages after losing jobs in pandemic (Covid 19).
  • But movie also shows how one can get joys of life from simple pleasures.

Whats Love, Bheed, Shazam, Demon Slayer

Watched several movies as mentioned above.

Whats Love got to do with it

  • Watched this movie on big screen.
  • A truly modern "British feel" to the movie.
  • Movie is directed by Shekhar Kapoor.
  • Movie is worth watching though we can know the relationship will not last it is actually leads to a nice feeling towards the end.

Bheed

  • This movie was watched on the big screen.
  • I felt without the intimate scene between hero and heroine in the beginning he movie would not be worth it.
  • Else it it becomes like a kids movie (made by kids for kids).
  • But the movie shows the true struggle between Communists and Capitalists and the state machinery and police working for Capitalists.
  • Rest all differences are superficial.
  • Differences like caste and religion are temporary.
  • The true struggle is between class and mass or Naxals/Communists and Elites/Capitalists.

Shazam

  • Watched this movie on big IMAX screen.
  • How the hero and his team saves the day is shown.
  • The original Shazam was too good.
  • This movie reinforces the earlier one.

Demon Slayer : Kimetsu No Yaiba to the Swordsmith Village

  • This movie was watched on big IMAX screen.
  • I liked the movie. 
  • Actually collection of three episodes.
  • Final episode has no action.
