Animal (2023)
Gu ka dhela movie !
One word to sum up the experience is Gu ! Gu ka Dhela ! Pathetic unintentional funny experience ! Nothing has changed in the universe. Ranbir Kapoor is still playing the same sob roles where he takes it seriously but movies are bad and Bobby Deol is still a bad actor. Songs and editing are specially bad. Vanga is a bad bad director working on a PR machine. Storytelling sucks as there is no story at all. When is Indian cinema going to learn and not copy the mindless movies created by Hollywood. Movie was as incoherent as this review and my headache. Nothing makes sense as I said gu ka dhela !!!!
The Archies (2023)
Wooden, boring and worst of Zoya Akhtar
Frankly speaking never liked Zoya Akhtar. She is really overrated. She copies everything and makes it worse. Coming back to Archies, calling it a movie is pure waste of my breathe. Actors are pathetic, there is no story. Same old cliches. Super rich trying to understand Poor's plight. Lol. This whole movie is a joke, and the joke is on them. Oh I forgot, it's a launch vehicle. But it launched them right out of the galaxy...Suhana Khan is really boring and bad actor. LA me kaise padhaya re acting. Other two are slightly better than her but that doesn't say anything about bad acting. Please do not watch this cringe fest !
Tathagat (2021)
Brilliant ! Pathbreaking !
This one is highly recommended. It has "Manav Kaul" Magic written all over it. Not only is he the best dramaturgist in India but a gem of a film director too.
Technically, this film is a class. Needless to mention about Cinematography and music (Absolutely amazing).
The film has deep and minute layers. It's incredibly moving. Himanshu Bhandari's acting makes you feel and live childhood again . There is lot of technical detailing that connects to the story's theme and the story's progress perfectly.
This movie could change the way films are made in India. Saddest part is that it's still unrecognised in the movie world. Tathagat is surely a cult in making !
Kantara (2022)
Copy ! Paste ! Dumb !
Kantara : It's not a masterpiece!!! It's loud, sexist, boring, over the top with an energetic ending ! And probably is copied from a Dhanush starrer "Karnan". The movie is 30 mins longer than needed, running in loops with no importance given to women characters. It will definitely fail the Bechdel Rule. Acting is apt and good in few places. Same mother, same villagers, same friends ...yeah we have seen this thousand times. The screenplay is terrible with nothing left for the audience's imagination. Please don't just show the spectacle let us also picture it in our brains(as said by Naseer sahab). I hope future creators will treat audiences as equals!
Duranga (2022)
DUMB !! DUMB !! DUMB !! what a waste
An opportunity wasted. Dumb direction even worst acting. Casting director needs a great salute. (almost every character is wrongly cast). I think director used to direct CID. Even CID has better thrill and emotions. Very disappointing.
Paatal Lok (2020)
A Must Watch ! No harm in telling the truth, its reality we must admit it !
Let me start with Negatives:
-It's a one sided narrative, but that could be the point. Other side of the story could be told another day.
-Morality of the lead character was lost in the ending chapters... he did not want his child to look down on him and desperately tried solving the case. But in the end, it all got lost
-Too many unused Chekhov's Gun were placed in the story
-Gul Panag's acting was a letdown.
-Story was weaved similar to Sacred Games...using similar mytho touch..
Also few minute flaws and error which could be Neglected..
Positivies :
- with its flaws, its a gripping tell...one wants to watch the underdog policeman trying hard to unearth the real coup.
- Acting from Niraj Kabi & Ahlawat was phenomenal... superb
- in between real issues were highlighted, casteism, issues with third gender, minority issues, classism, etc. Believe it or not, it does exist in our society.
It'a must watch series. Just to see how Indian Web series are coming out of age. But Sadly everything falls in a single genre.
Ankur Arora Murder Case (2013)
Lockdown day 32 & good plot wasted
Vikram Bhatt is very well recognised director for making bad movies with bad stories & scripts. Here he stumbles upon a good plot point and then kills it anyways. As if they never had a story, just a plot. It's a real lazy ass film. Kay Kay Menon plays a doctor. His name is Dr. Asthana. Ok..i guess i might have heard it somewhere. Tisca Chopra is superbly wasted. Songs are unnecessary and equally bad. It's a boring film with no real substance and a hollwood copy..Do not waste your time.
Padmaavat (2018)
A Real bad movie Even for quarantine.
Who makes a film based such thin stroy line.Graphics are equally bad. Ostrich and deer act better than everyone even though they are graphically created. Ranveer singh,Deepika and Shahid Kapoor act as if they were given another version of script. Direction remains stale and one dimensional. Action sequence are also not praise worthy. It's length...boring and has all the bollywood masala elements. Do not watch even in quarantine..
Chakwa (2004)
Atul Kulkarni's worst performance ever
This movie could have been good thriller if not for bad acting and direction as if no one was interested in the story. Atul Kulkarni who is always a formidable acting has also given his worst performance ever. Deepa Parab is really bad, her character stays in a small hut and wears fabulous dresses with no explanation. Mukta Barve play a small role and nothing to rave about. Please give it a miss even in Quarantine.
702 Dixits (2016)
Truly a Bad movie
This Movie highlights director's incompetency. It's a badly made movie made worse by equally bad acting. They wanted to create a thriller but it's a slug fest..nothing much to say. Skip it ..Even quarantine time was wasted watching this flick.
Dawn of the Planet of the Apes (2014)
Dark times Ahead. BLOCKBUSTER
I love Christopher Nolan, He has simply changed the way superhuman,extraordinary thrillers are made. Now everyone is just following him. Most of the Directors are trying to show the dark and more realistic environment in the movies and MATT REEVES succeeded in it.
It is a extremely well-made and enacted movie. What works is the intensity of the characters. Caesar is the character taken straight out of the last installment, Rise of the Planet of the apes. He is the brains and the brass together. The movie is entertaining and includes a surprising ending.
The film has got some amazing graphics. The Apes look real and in every way you sympathize with them. I would rate it 9 out of 10 just for graphics,acting and the intensity of the film.
DO WATCH !!
Dark City (1998)
Best underrated movie ever
This is definitely one of the best sci fiction movies made ever.
undoubtedly the best story for a sci fiction movie.
Movie characters are so well itched and combination of some great acting.
After some decades this movie will be remade.
Only, if the movie was made with better graphics it could have been the blockbuster.
Darkness always work. Humans do evolve best in the time of darkness.
Lookout for the ending scene, it gives the feeling of rejuvenation.
P.s: It's a human heart which makes the difference not brain.
Edge of Tomorrow (2014)
well made movie but..
How often do you see a well made movie less on entertainment factor.This is a premier example.
Basic plot is a mixture of some alien flick and source code.
It's basically a re-birth story with memory of older birth.
Tom-cruise is superb,so is the other cast.
C G I effects are amazing.
Story moves intelligently and briskly with very little tiring moments.
Yes there are some tiring moments which could have been filled.
End is satisfying and second could be in making.
So,If you are an out an out action movie buff. This is it !!
X-Men: Days of Future Past (2014)
Movies of Future Past
I finally found out that Wolverine was never a central character of x-men movies.
He is the least powerful and he just cannot save the world. How lame of me to watch all the movies just for him.
X-Men: Days of Future Past does have some gorgeous sequences and amazing acting (special mention for younger prof. Charles Xavier- Amazing and Therion Lannister of Game of Thrones)
So finally when the world is saved again, they can re-boot the older Xmen movies because everyone is alive Again.
Hurrrrrrrrrrrraaayyyyyyyyy !!!
The Dark Knight (2008)
Simply can't review this one
Dark Knight, what does it have.
Best Actor in Hollywood.
Best Director,Best Actress ,Best Supporting cast and The Best Villainous act.
Strangely the movie doesn't bank on any of the above mentioned things. It's the STORY which steals all limelight.
It's all about your own good and Bad self
Spoiler: Watch out for a boat sequence, it will just blow your mind up.
Most of the directors have already started copying this film's black and dark theme.
You just can't miss this flick.AMAZING !!
