Siyaasat (2014)
A really underrated gem
Set out to emulate the Game of Thrones style, it became something of a cult niche on its own. Superb production design makes every scene feel authentic for the period it is set in. The only drawback is the lighting and cinematography, which could have been done much better. But, notwithstanding that, this still deserves multiple viewings and it is sanitized of the typical Indian soap opera over-the-top dramatic moments.
Zodiac (2007)
Fincher at his Directorial Best
It is hard to tell a story well that has no climax and no cinematic conclusion or resolution. But Fincher excels at that in this movie. The case may have been on the newspaper reports throughout the late 60s and the early 70s, but Fincher's direction adds a new dimension for viewers, the lived experience of anyone living during that time and near those scenes of crime. The movie wonderfully captures the aura of the feeling of dread of the unknown assailant.
