Suzume no Tojimari (2022)
An absolute must watch if you like the director
This is a great romance story. Unlike weathering with you, this movie varies more from Shinkai's previous stories hence feels more original. The scope of the film is much bigger than his previous works. This is a must watch film! What are you waiting for? Go watch it already. Unlike your name I will give this film a 9/10 because i was hoping to see/know more about certain characters in the story. This film is almost perfect and second only to your name for me among Makoto Shinkai's works. The visuals...what else is there to say about the visuals in makoto Shinkai's films other than they are resplendent, beautiful and stunning to look at. Go watch it already!
Mob Psycho 100 (2016)
Peak storytelling and visuals!
The storytelling consistently gets better through seasons where season 3>season 2>season 1. And I already love season 1. Every character in this show in my opinion is well developed. There are no mundane characters(at least among the main ones). The plot is mostly about high school student but it has rich storytelling as is has great characters interwoven with some important themes such as identity, responsibility of power, becoming good at something and others. The relationship with characters is also fantastic. And to top it all of it had a great ending. This show has one of the best stories I have seen in any show. I highly recommend this especially to anime fans(and especially those that love OPM).
Black Panther: Wakanda Forever (2022)
A couple of flaws but great moments as well.
Firstly, the shoes that Ryan Cooglar(the director) had to fill must have been hard especially because there are people who want to replace Chadwick Boseman as well people who do not want Chadwick Boseman replaced. And I heard they completed the plans for this movie with chadwick Boseman as Black Panther but after his death they had change plans. If this was really true then it must be tough. So I kept my expectations really low for this movie and it was not bad. Firstly the screenplay was written poorly. Don't get me wrong, most characters(not all) were great but the dialogue needs work. Certain things in this movie did not make sense(not gonna say which ones as it will be a spoiler if I do). The actor who played Namor I felt was great at certain parts(as he sounded intimidating a bit in certain scenes) and other scenes he just felt like a normal dude and did not sound intimidating although that was they were going for. Shuri's character development was only not bad. Besides Namor another character(iron heart) was introduced(she definitely needs a lot of work on her character-she is basically a super smart character with literally almost no flaws and she might just be the smartest character in the mcu and her character in all honesty was just boring). The ending of this film could've been better. Earlier I stated certain things in this film did not make sense and it was because some character decisions were dumb and scenes were unrealistic. The good thing is that there was world building and the action sequences were much better here than in BP 1. There were a few surprises here and there as well.
Love Today (2022)
Pretty average honestly
The only good things in the film is the comedy in first 3/4 , Yogi Babu's character,Raveena Ravi's character and Raadhika Sarathkumar's character. Everything else was bad. If they kept to comedy throughout the entire film I would have given this film a 7/10. The messaging was not mostly appropriate. The lead female character was in my opinion the worst(she makes terrible decisions and is easily swayed) and what's with antagonist? I have never seen an antagonist so poorly written. It felt like they just wanted a situation to come up for the last quarter of the film so they wrote in the antagonist at the last minute. There were plot holes. And honestly the reason for which both characters still love each other is cliche just live 95% of other romance storylines in Indian films(where the girl looks beautiful so the guy falls in love with her). At some point in the movie things could have ended but if that happened the movie would have ended too soon so they compromised on realism just to extend the movie showing how poorly written the story is overall. Honestly just remove the antagonist character and keep the film comedy throughout and that would have saved this movie(not completely) but definitely by a large margin.
Shingeki no Kyojin (2013)
Not a huge fan of anime,but this is definitely the greatest piece of entertainment I have ever seen!
The show has one of the greatest stories I have heard of and the character development are all fantastic. I actually felt sad for all the characters in the show(even if they are on different sides). This show is fantastic. DEFINITELY A MUST WATCH! There is no point reading reviews anymore...just saying watch the show!
Stranger Things (2016)
Overall fantastic show!
The show had great character development and is quite scary sometimes. The ending of season 3 was quite emotional as well. And,sometimes it can get funny.but why I would not give it 10/10 is because a few relationships in season 3 did not work for me. That's my only flaw other than that this show is phenomenal.
Knives Out (2019)
A must watch!
This film is in short incredible! The story and the acting were the main highlight of the film. The crew members of this film did a fantastic job of making an original whodunnit film.to those who have yet to have seen this film, what are you waiting for? Go watch it...you'll love it. Also,another great thing about this film is that most of the actors in this film acted in a way that you might not believe as they have rarely taken up such roles before. I think Chris Evan's,Daniel Craig's and Toni College's acting would surprise you'll the most.
Bird Box (2018)
Overall it was great
This film has given me an experience and there were times when I was really quite scared when watching...it had a great story and the way he horror was written and directed was fantastic...However I would not give it 10/10 as I had a few issues with the film. My first flaw with it would be some of the side characters(I wish they were used more often). Next I would have to say the emotional aspect between characters(there was a scene nearing the ending that looked like it was meant to be emotional but it did not work for me). Last but not least ,the ending was also a disappointment...I wished they ended the film better. In a nutshell,I would say it is worth watching the film for the experience. I don't think the issues I had had a massive impact on my opinion on the film(it only affected a bit)
The Queen's Gambit (2020)
Fantastic show
This is show is fantastic in every aspect.it also has done the storybook justice...I highly recommend all to watch it.
Violet Evergarden (2018)
This might be the best show I've ever seen!
This show is very emotional and touching and in every swingle episode is emotional...it really touches you...no other show has made me cry in one of their episodes other than this show. A MUST WATCH FOR ALL! Also, the animation is gorgeous.
Inside Out (2015)
A must watch for all!
This film has great messages for people of all ages(mostly children) and I think that families should watch this movie as this is a fantastic movie and it's also very creative. Pixar as usual comes up with many creative stories to tell and this was definitely one of them and thisovie is definitely one of my most favourite Pixar film.I highly recommend to everyone.
How to Train Your Dragon (2010)
One of my favourite movies ever!
This film had great development between characters. And when it comes to one relationship in specific(hiccup and toothless) it was done with very less dialogue and mostly though actions and it was beautiful to watch. I have watched this movie so many times that I lost count of. This film is beautiful and develops bonds between characters in a phenomenal way! I highly recommend this to all.
Tonari no Totoro (1988)
A film made for all ages.
This film is not only for young children but adults would find something in this movie interesting as well. A classic Ghibli film and even one do the characters featured in this movie is the logo for studio Ghibli in most of their movies. This film is fun and enjoyable for everyone.I highly recommend it to all!
Koe no katachi (2016)
A movie with deeper meanings.
At first when I watched it I was confused with a few things but at first watch I thought this was only a 9/10 for me. However,as I rewatch the movie,I understand the deeper meanings and symbolism in this movie. This film really deserves more recognition than it is getting right now. Also, many people that thought the character Ueno was not good in this movie but let me tell you first,you have to understand her point of view and understand why she is doing certain stuff. ALL THE CHARACTERS IN THWI MOVIE WERE GREAT! And the animation was stellar.
Gravity (2013)
Overall great film!
This movie will give you an experience that not many movies can give you as the visual effects are just glorious! The film was very well directed and cinematography and visual effects were just astounding. The only reason why I wouldn't give this movie 10/10 is the same reason for the Martian. I felt that some of the side characters could be used more.
WALL·E (2008)
By far my favourite Pixar movie
This entire movie was basically 'show don't tell' and it was done in a very beautiful way.The animation was gorgeous from start to finish and the interactions even though there was very little conversation. A must watch!
The Martian (2015)
Overall, Awesome film!
This is a very well directed film with a great story. Matt Damon was great in this film and The visuals(just like in many other space movie)
Was phenomenal. The only flaw I would say with this movie is that some of the side characters could have been given more things to do in the story.
The Sixth Sense (1999)
Masterpiece
Chills went down my spine 3 times while I was watching this film. Personally, this the most scariest movie I've watched and I know that many people would disagree with me on that point as some people would say The Shinning is better or Psycho is better but the sixth sense for me is my personal favourite thriller/horror film. And yes,just like what everyone else says,there is a plot twist at the end(a very good one,maybe the best) . I highly recommend this movie especially if you are a fan of thrillers or horror.Also, when you rewatch the film,you will like it even more.
Catch Me If You Can (2002)
Very entertaining!
This film is based off of a true life story of a person. This film was very entertaining and had a lot of heart to it as well. It didn't have any flaws from what I know. The film had great acting , cinematography and directing. The only reason why I would not give it 10/10 is because this film was not as entertaining as some Spielberg's other films like Jaws,Raiders of the lost arc, ET etc...
Life of Pi (2012)
Surprisingly excellent film
This film has a great story to tell and was stunning and gorgeous to watch. After a few minutes into the movie, every scene felt like an artwork.it was very colourful and the bonding between the tiger character and the main character was fantastic.when coming to the end of the film,I got chills on my body.I highly recommend this movie to everyone.
Shanti (1965)
Overall a great film with minimum flaws.
The flaws are quite little in the storytelling and also the way certain scenes were handled. The film was handled very well for most of the part and the acting was phenomenal especially by two of the main lead roles. The story deals with marriage for most of the part and I think it was a very relatable problem back in the time when it was released and it is still quite relevant for today as well. Even the cinematography and directing of the movie is great(there were certain camera movements which I liked in this movie). If you are ok with watching old movies, I would say give this movie a try and watch it.
Inception (2010)
Must watch for everyone!
This film is very intelligent. Although the main story is about a father trying to get back home to home to see his kids , the way this movie was executed is phenomenal.Chris Nolan proves that he is a master at pushing the boundaries of cinema. This movie will require you to think and pay attention to certain things in the story which I really love.
Terminator 2: Judgment Day (1991)
A classic action film!
A must watch for all action movie fans. This film has everything that a great action film needs and even has great development among the characters. There is also a good message in the movie. This is a perfect action film! Definitely a must watch for everyone.
It's a Wonderful Life (1946)
Honestly, this has got to be the best family film.
This movie's story was very creative as it is something unlike we have seen or heard. The acting from the actors are all great and it has a great message for all ages. What else do you need from a fantastic movie? This movie had everything you need and more. Definitely a must watch for families!
2001: A Space Odyssey (1968)
Most important science fiction film in history!
Every sci-fi film that came after this have to thank Stanley Kubrick... Without this film,we wouldn't have gotten many great films(e.g. Star Wars and inception etc) and the visuals are still stunning and great directing too especially in the use of colour it also has the greatest cut scene ever as well. A must watch!
