  • It is unbelievable how full forces like army and air force will come under the control of Rebel forces.

Raayan

  • Definitely different and worth watching.

Kalki 2898 AD

  • This Prabhas starring movie was watched on Prime video.
  • I liked the movie.
  • After taking inspiration from hell lot of Hollywood movies like Blade Runner, Total Recall, Mad Max, Hunger Games etc., this movie has elements of Indian culture like Ten Avatars of Vishnu Bhagwan and Mahabharat.
  • It mixes and both and this comes up.
  • It shows how juice is extracted from pregnant ladies like farming is being done in future. This is what Hollywood is being accused of that is the secret of everlasting beauty and so on as part of conspiracy theories.
  • Vishnus tenth incarnation would be coming to save the world. That is the concept.

Planet of the Apes, Rockstar, Godzilla, Furiosa, Little Mermaid

Watched 5 movies as mentioned above

Kingdom of the Planet of the Apes

  • Watched this movie on big screen.
  • The movie shows that even when the world has ended, humans still exist as a civilisation.
  • Guess that is the underlying thread of the movies made today.
  • Without humans prevailing there can be no movie.
  • They cannot show humans getting extinct or else there will be no audience.
  • They also have to show Apes as primitive.

Rockstar

  • Watched this Hindi movie starring Ranbir Kapoor on the big screen.
  • This was re release of the classic 2011 movie.
  • Worth watching again.

Godzilla x Kong : The New Empire

  • This was watched on the big screen.
  • This shows a world beneath the ground.
  • And just like Planet of the Apes, this movie has to show humans prevailing or else there will be no movie.
  • Also Godzilla has to survive else there would no more Godzilla movie anymore.

Furiosa : A Mad Max Saga

  • This movie was watched on the big screen.
  • Too good well made movie.
  • Worth watching.
  • It stays true to Mad Max franchise and very good sound and action.

The Little Mermaid

  • This was watched on big screen.
  • And really nice movie.
  • Worth watching.

Son of God, Laapata, Kung Fu Panda

Watched three more movies as mentioned above.

Son of God

  • This movie was watched on Amazon Prime Video.
  • I read that this movie was made from scenes collated from web series.
  • This movie shows the life story of Jesus Christ.
  • This movie shows that Jesus Christ could perform certain miracles like producing food for hundreds from thin air and healing the sick.
  • Once he also brought a man from the dead.
  • That is how he was considered a Messiah by many people and threat by the existing authorities mainly the Jews and the Romans.
  • Jews were the authority of religion and Romans were the administrative authority in charge of law and order.
  • Some research showed that the Temple Mount was still standing.
  • It was destroyed by the Romans much later after Christ.
  • This movie also shows that Christ also knew what will happen to him and the future.
  • He worries about the same. 
  • And prays for strength to his Father who art thou in heaven.
  • And since God Almighty is his father and that is why He is the Son of God.
  • The story is too good and gives hope to the hopeless.
  • Worth watching.

Laapata Ladies

  • This movie was watched on the big screen.
  • Initially the movie is like a puzzle or "Paheli".
  • Then as the movie progresses things become clearer and clearer and in finally towards the end the mystery is revealed and the story is not that complex.
  • Worth watching.

Kung Fu Panda 4

  • This movie was watched on the big screen.
  • It carries on the tradition of Kung Fu movies.
  • Full of action and adventure and special effects challenging movies like Matrix.
  • Worth watching for the twists and turns shown in the movie.

Road House, Dune, Madgaon

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

Road House

  • Watched this movie starring Jake Gyllenhall on Amazon Prime Video.
  • I will say Amazon is amazing for making movies like this.
  • Conor McGregor also does great role.
  • It catches the Florida scene perfectly and that is what I thought.
  • Overall a good movie.

Dune 2

  • This movie was watched on the big screen.
  • Too good action movie.
  • Worth watching.
  • Now Dune Part 1 had to lead somewhere and the answer is Dune Part 2.
  • Before the movie releases we think movie will be in a certain way.
  • This movie fits more or less the same as what we thought it would be like.

Madgaon Express

  • This movie was watched on the big screen.
  • I will say the filmmaker who is Kunal Kemu has got a great sense of humour.
  • And his sense of humour is visible in the movie and the scenes.
  • Too good comedy and full fledged laugh riot I would say.
  • Worth watching.

Dunki, Dange, Teri Baaton, Starfish

Watched four movies as mentioned above.

Dunki

  • This movie was watched on Netflix.
  • I liked the movie.
  • The conclusion from this movie is that nowhere where you go there is no place like home.
  • Ultimately people have the dream to return to their homeland at the end of their lives.

Dange

  • This movie was watched on big screen.
  • Movie is worth watching for two things the college festival and background music.
  • College festival has been captured in a few minutes clip beautifully.

Teri Baaton Mein Aisa Uljha Jiya

  • This movie was watched on big screen.
  • It shows futuristic world where robots resemble more like humans and it is hard to tell the difference.
  • Movie is very well made with good songs.
  • Worth watching where future meets traditional Indian family.

Starfish

  • This movie was watched on Netflix.
  • It has UA certificate but it leaves little to imagination is A content.
  • Father has relationship with daughter (born out of wedlock) and even gets her pregnant (20 years after she is born) that is what I understood.
  • Though she has abortion and mom commits suicide.
  • Movie is shot in Goa and Malta and that is too good for scenery aspect.
