Love in Vietnam, Baaghi 4

Have watched watched the below movies over the past few days.

Love in Vietnam

• This Shantanu Maheshwari Avneet Kaur movie was watched on the big screen.
• I liked the movie and I had seen that the Vietnamese actress is also one top actor in Vietnam.
• What they have made is remarkable.
• It could be "inspired" from real stories.
• With lakhs of Indians moving out the country annually, it is quite possible that several Indians could be involved in romantic affairs abroad and may be getting their foreign friends pregnant.
• Even if it happens one in hundred thousand it still happens and it matters.
• Too bad the movie was not a hit.
• I personally felt it was well made.
• You have to watch the full movie to draw conclusion.
• If you walk though halfway you never get to know.

Baaghi 4

• This Tiger Shroff movie was watched on big screen.
• I liked the movie.
• Tiger Shroff is quite dependable character.
• He captures the West Coast of India vibes quite well. Not just Mumbai but the entire West Coast of India.
• Action sequences are very well portrayed and captured.
• Costumes are great.
• Miss India heroine who makes debut also does well.
• And so does Sanjay Dutt.
• Definitely worth watching.

Conjuring, Param Sundari, Jugnuma, Lokah

Watched several more movies over the past few days

The Conjuring : Last Rites

• This movie was watched on the big screen.
• I liked the way the movie transports you to the 1960's and 1980's and they do it well.
• Apart from the scary moments that is the most important aspect of the movie.
• Definitely worth watching once at least.

Param Sundari

• This movie was watched on the big screen.
• It captures north south difference quite well.
• Definitely a "feel good" kind of movie.
• Can be watched without any problem

Jugnuma

• This movie was watched on the big screen.
• What they have shown in the movie is simple.
• They have shown that hero attaches wings and flies. 
• That could mean air travel and specifically international travel.
• In the end entire family flies and that could mean they left for abroad.
• Fires happens due to fireflies is too far fetched.
• But it can mean that their genes get altered.
• How and why? Nothing is mentioned but we can say that climate change could be reason.

Lokah Chapter 1

• This Hindi dubbed Malayalam movie was watched on the big screen.
• Great movie with great quality of finishing.
• Definitely worth watching.
• It reminded me of the movie Let Me In
• But they have made Dracula like character as hero.
• Definitely if they don't do evil things they are like hero or perhaps superhero.
• But the character will continue to live after the ordinary humans pass away.
• That is the story.

OG, Jolly LLB, Demon Slayer, Mirai

Watched several movies over the past few days. mentioned as below:

They Call him OG

• This Pawan Kalyan Hindi dubbed movie of Telugu movie was watched on the big screen
• Too good movie with lots of action.
• This Pawan Kalyan guy turns out to be a top Samurai warrior from Japan.
• Definitely worth watching.
• Though his name is OG towards the end they have shown also mentioned is "Original Gangster"

Jolly LLB Part 3

• This Jolly LLB movie was watched on the big screen.
• Too good movie.
• Full of entertainment by both Jollies.

Demon Slayer : Kimetsu no Yaiba Infinity Castle 

• This Japanese Anime movie was watched on the big screen.
• Too good movie with showing of an "infinity castle" which turns around and endless pathways emerge.
• Definitely worth watching.

Mirai

• This Mirai Hindi dubbed version of Telugu movie was watched on the big screen.
• Mirai means the Kodanda of "Kodanda Ram" means the bow and arrow of Lord Ram who is one of the most important deities in Hindu culture.
• They have also adopted the story of Thanos where you own all the stones and you become all powerful.
• Here they have not made up stones but "books" totalling nine.
• And final book makes you supreme being.
• But the fact is in front of Lord Ram and Vishnu you are nobody.
• Lord Vishnu is the most powerful being in the Universe and Lord Ram is Avatar and thus the villain perishes.

War 2, Bring Her Back, Nobody 2, The Roses

Watched four movies as mentioned above.

War 2

• This movie was watched on big screen.
• I liked the movie.
• They have got 80's and 90's movie mix into 2020's.
• The way they have shown how orphans who live in streets grow up to become secret agents of India.
• It is okay for one time watch. 

Bring Her Back

• This Australian classic horror movie was watched on big screen.
• It can be considered the sequel to "Talk to Me" which was box office hit plus critically acclaimed.
• This movie also can be watched without any problem. 

Nobody 2

• This movie was watched on big screen.
• Nobody Part 1 was too great action.
• Nobody part 2 introduces the family and action continues into rural America.
• Critics may pan this movie but I liked it.
• Definitely can be watched once without any problem.
• We should not compare Part 1 and Part 2 though. 

The Roses

• This movie was watched on the big screen.
• This movie turned out to be better than what I thought.
• Their title is Rose and hence the movie is "The Roses" 
• Too good action and story and performances.
• Definitely deserves applause.
• Worth watching. 

Squid Game, Housefull 5A

Watched the above series and movie over the past few days.

Squid Game Seasons 2 and 3

• I had seen Squid Game Season 1 in 2021.
• And this Squid Game concludes with Season 2 and 3.
• I have liked this concept of Squid Game and if we come to realise that almost all TV shows involving game play are like Squid Game.
• Only thing is that in those games like "Kaun Banega Karodpati" people don't die. 
• But they get "eliminated" means they exit the show and figuratively it is same as "death".
• More we think about it, even real life is like Squid Game.
• In real life people do die.
• As a matter of fact death is the only reality.
• People do not realise that one who is born into this world is bound to die.
• Coming back to the series it is too good and worth watching.
• The dialogue in the end "we are humans and not horses" is too good. 

Housefull 5A 

• I had seen Housefull 5B on the big screen 
• And this one I saw on Prime Video.
• I liked the movie.
• Okay to watch once definitely even if you have seen the other part.
• Like I had read only in last 20 minutes or so is the difference there in 5A and 5B. 

Bhool Chuk Maaf, Mahavatar Narsimha, Weapons

Watched three movies as mentioned above.

Bhool Chuk Maaf

• This movie was watched on Prime Video.
• I liked the movie.
• It is like a feel good movie where everything turns out well in the end. 

Mahavatar Narsimha

• This movie was watched on the big screen.
• It was better than what I had imagined.
• This was so satisfying to the soul.
• I could not help but imagine that Prahlada is Palestine and HiranyaKashyap is Israel and Lord Vishnu is God Almighty or Allah by whatever name you can call.
•  Like we Indians say "Bhagwan Ke Ghar main deir hai Andher nahin"
• Means in Lords home there is hope and not despair.
• Worth watching where we can relate Ancient Indian stories in the present world. 

Weapons

• This movie was watched on the big screen.
• I liked the movie concept where the movie slowly reveals itself with characters.
• Initially it is confusing but with each character the story becomes more and more clear.
• Movie deals with witchcraft and how people become like weapons in the hands of the witch. 
• The witch can use them as weapons as she pleases.
•  In a sense this movie is like "Laapata Ladies" where you think movie is complex but actually is a simple story.

 

Jurassic World, F1, Saiyaara, Son of Sardaar

Watched few more movies as mentioned above.

Jurassic World : Rebirth

• This movie was watched on the big screen
• Too good movie.
• It shows a bit like how imperialists go to equator type climate to "loot and plunder".
• Dinosaurs just happen to be a "metaphor".

F1

• This movie was watched on the big screen.
• This Brad Pitt character in the movie is like a real "alpha male".
• Difficult to beat an alpha male like Brad Pitt character.
• Let us face it actual F1 is much more "dynamic" with involvement of hundreds if not thousands of people more.
• But this movie does an honest effort to bring the characters of F1 to life.
• Worth watching and there is no doubt that this movie getting highest rating in Book My Show.

Saiyaara

• This movie was watched on the big screen.
• What I felt that this movie does not show anything special or new.
• Lovers getting separated and meeting again after few months or years has been shown in countless movies, movies like Jab We Met among others.
• What this movie brings in is two new actors who became superstars literally overnight.
• Needless to say those two actors must have gone into shock.
• They would not have imagined it would have such a big hit.
• Now a new life awaits them as their private lives would become public and they would be chased by "Paparazzi".

Son of Sardaar 2

• This movie was watched on the big screen.
• Very good performances by all actors.
• I liked the movie.
• Special mention I would like to make is of Deepak Dobriyal who is just unrecognizable as a Transgender.
• I mean the movie got finished then I realized that Deepak Dobriyal was not erroneously mentioned in the credits. He is in the movie. 
• Also the India Pakistan link is vital in the movie. Else the story would just "derail".
