Predator, Masti 4, Haq, De De Pyaar, Wicked

Watched several movies over the past few days. As mentioned below.

Predator Badlands

  • Watched this movie on the big screen.
  • In this movie they have shown the Predator's planet.
  • It is set in future no doubt about that.
  • And human race is not shown. 
  • What they have shown is that human race is led by AI and robots.
  • It is not clear if humans are in charge of human made Ai and robots.

Mastiii 4

  • This full comedy movie was watched on big screen.
  • I will say life is full of sorrows and disappointments.
  • And if you can find moments of happiness you should enjoy it.
  • That is what is shown in the movie.
  • Movie is shot in England (mostly).

Haq

  • This Emraan Hashmi starrer was watched on the big screen.
  • Too good drama movie.
  • Though in actual case protagonists may be old, here they have taken young actors.
  • Fully enjoyable movie.

De De Pyaar De 2

  • This movie was watched on big screen.
  • Very nice comedy movie.
  • Good performances by all actors.
  • The twist in plot is where the heroine organizes everything and turns her Dad's plan topsy turvy.
  • That is the main highlight of the movie and is shown in last 30 minutes.

Wicked For Good

  • This movie was watched on the big screen.
  • I must confess I did not watch Wicked Part 1.
  • But now I want to watch it and also dive into the Wizard of Oz movies and story.
  • Such is the impact of this movie.
  • Worth watching.

120 Bahadur, Taj Story, Baramulla

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

120 Bahadur

  • Watched this movie on the big screen.
  • This is a story of bravery and how 120 people sacrificed themselves for the border.
  • Their bravery deterred the invading forces of Chinese from advancing further.
  • Worth watching.

The Taj Story

  • This was watched on the big screen.
  • This movie tries to destroy the narrative which we learnt from school that the Taj Mahal is a symbol of love. It is not that but that of genocide.
  • Their (makers) motive is that lies when repeated a hundred times becomes the truth.
  • Worth watching once to get alternate view of history.
  • Makers have added disclaimer in the beginning that this is all made up.

Baramulla

  • This "supernatural movie" was watched on Netflix.
  • Too good movie.
  • Movie is made on Kashmiri by Kashmiri for the world.
  • Worth watching once without any problem.

Sunny Sanskari, Kantara

Watched few movies over the past few days.

Sunny Sanskari Ki Tulsi Kumari

  • Watched this movie on the big screen.
  • Too good movie.
  • But there were two scenes which did not go down with me.
  • One was swimming pool pissing scene.
  • And next was chest competition scene between the heroines.
  • Apart from that movie was good.
  • They have taken a seven star resort on hire and shot the movie over there.
  • Definitely can be watched once without any problem.

Kantara Chapter 1

  • This movie was watched on the big screen.
  • It continues old Kantara story and shows "prequel".
  • While first part invoked Lord Vishnu and mainly the "Varaha Avatar".
  • This latest part invoked both Lord Shiva and Lord Durga.
  • It is mish mash of various Gods and Goddesses and the story takes shape.
  • Thing is movies like this cant be described.
  • It has to be watched while being "arrested" in a seat.
  • And then only you will get the movie.

Charidham, Heer Express

Watched the above movies over the past few days.

Charidham : A Journey Within

  • Watched this Odia movie on the big screen.
  • Nice performance by Anubhav Mohanty.
  • Definitely worth watching.
  • You watch this movie and realize that  this is a unique movie because it is Odia movie which is neither Hindi nor South based and it different.

Heer Express

  • This movie was watched on the big screen.
  • The name of the movie shows that who is the main character.
  • Heer i.e. is the name of the heroine and she is the main character.
  • Rest of the actors are like side roles.
  • Heer Express means Heer is the main engine and bogie plus the destination.
  • Movie is set and shot in Indian Punjab and UK, mainly London.
  • Can be watched once without any problem.

Homebound, Vaastav, Tron Ares

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

Homebound

  • Watched this movie on the big screen.
  • After a brief background on their stories, the second half of the movie deals with the "homebound story" of the main actors from Surat to UP during the pandemic, i.e. Covid 19.
  • Unfortunately one of them does not make it back and that is the story.
  • Definitely worth watching once.

Vaastav (Odia movie)

  • This Odia movie was watched on the big screen.
  • What I saw that many people had come to the see the movie when they were actually involved in the movie, including the actors, the producers and other people.
  • The producers had probably booked in bulk in the theatre.
  • But it was too bad there was no public patronage available.
  • Means there were very few members of the public.
  • Needless to say the film was withdrawn from the screen in just three days with very few shows.
  • It takes so much time and effort to make a movie but it gets wiped out so easily.
  • But for me the movie was as good as a blockbuster.
  • But I was sad it did not run.

Tron Ares

  • This movie was watched on the big screen.
  • It had one of my favorite personalities, the 30 second To Mars front man Jared Leto.
  • And hence the movie was worthwhile.
  • In addition to incredible special effects.
  • Definitely worth watching.

Coolie, Ek Deewane, Taj Story, Thamma

Watched several movies over the past few days.

Coolie

  • This Rajnikanth starrer movie was watched on Prime Video
  • I liked the movie.
  • The movie focusses on Vizag or Visakhapatnam as the city and it is the center of the story.
  • There are several movies based on Chennai or Hyderabad or even Mumbai.
  • Visakhapatnam is new and it is a project to make it as focus and it will take time.
  • Gamechanger was based on Vizag and now this movie.
  • Definitely this movie worth watching.
  • How they make the dead bodies vaporize in 10 minutes smacks of similarity to "rapture".

Ek Deewane Ki Deewaniayat

  • This movie was watched on big screen.
  • This movie has definitely a "magnetic pull" after success of re release of "Sanam Teri Kasam".
  • Intense looks by Harshavardhan Rane and Sonam Bajwa in trailer pulls you to theatre.
  • Songs are also good.
  • Story is good. 
  • From trailer you feel Sonam Bajwa is big politician and Harshwardhan Rane is bodyguard or someone similar. But in story it is actually opposite.
  • Definitely worth watching.

The Taj Story

  • This movie was watched on big screen.
  • This movie tries to bellittle Mughal history and say that Mughals contributed nothing to India and Indian history.
  • I will say that this movie is worth watching.
  • To get alternate view of history.
  • Movies are make believe.
  • If movie like Bahubali is worth watching so will be movie like Taj Story.

Thamma

  • This movie was watched on big screen.
  • This movie intertwines vampire story with Indian legendary story of Maha Kali.
  • Also shows that certain regions are only accessible through "portals"
  • Else simple ariel photography would show the vampire locations.
  • Definitely can be watched once without any problem.
