Animal (2023)
Nothing good- not a single moment
None of it is good. Not the acting. Not the direction. Not the make up. Not the production. Not the dialogues. Not the story line. Truly amazed the kissing culture of Bollywood. How are people keeping a straight face as they rave review this movie??? How did Ranbur get an award for this? I used to dismiss people calling india film awards as rigged. But this one has finally gotten me convinced. After watching ten minutes of the novie, my family was left shaking our heads in disbelief. We turned it off and decided to watch something else. I went back to watch it simply because I was convinced we may have overlooked a gem. It truly is a gem - takes the award for the worst movie I have ever seen. If you're curious, watch it in fast forward mode. Even that time is a total waste. You weee informed.
Thar (2022)
Well shot and delivered
If you're rating on plot etc you're missing the point. This movie is very well shot and very classy. Love father son duo. They are both excellent actors. Yes the story is predictable but yet it can be a miss if poorly delivered. They stay in character throughout and full points for Anurag Kashyap dialogs. Wonderful watch for a laid back Friday evening Netflix night.
Toofaan (2021)
Are you kidding me!!??!!
Is this a joke? What's up Farhan Akhtar? We excitedly waited to watch this movie as we do for all movies that cast you. Super shocked at how terrible this could be in the very first minute!! The dialogue delivery - oh my god! Was the accenting so important? And what's up with the lame dialogues. We thought it was probably a voice over joke by someone until we heard your voice. I want to unsee the five minutes i allowed myself to survive giving this movie a chance. Omg. What a dud and such a pity. I guess desperate times must bring desperate decisions for the best of us.
Oscuro deseo (2020)
Nothing but a porn movie
Terrible! Every five minutes is a sex scene. Hardly a story line and whatever suspense they are trying to create is just so obvious. The camera angles are ugly and the acting is mediocre. And as I said in the title...there really isn't a story line. It is just a bunch of sex scenes. File this under porn movies.
An Affair to Die For (2019)
Garbage
The only people rating this highly are friends and family. I should've quit after the first 15 mins but I wanted to give it a chance so watched an entire hour. Ugh!! Wasted my time. It only gets worse. Complete nonsense. It is all over the place.
Bap Jal Sajuneun Yeppeun Nuna (2018)
Beautifully executed
I am an American from India and yet was hooked on to this series from episode 1!!!! So hooked that I had to watch it a second time. A month after I finished watching it, I couldn't shake the memories and had to watch it all over again. The love the characters shared for one another was so pure and a joy to watch. This is my first and only Korean entertainment so not sure how close this is to reality. Lol. I am thinking Korean people drink a LOT!!! Was really nice to see the family dynamics since it is so close to Indian culture when in comes to moving up in society. Agree that the series overall is really painfully slow and some twists and turns are just so unnecessary but I was ok since it meant I could watch the two protagonists for a longer time.
And boy was I envious of the numerous numerous numerous hand bags and coats Yoo-Jin Ah possesses; in spite of the tiny closet she seems to own. Lol. A NEW set every episode!!!! Jealous!!!
Andhadhun (2018)
Laugh out loud funny and amazingly witty
You will chuckle spontaneously every time you remember a moment from the movie.
Ayushmann couldn't have done a better job. Fantastically and smoothly portrays the character of Akash. Tabu as Simi convincingly plays a conniving villain. Every single character does an outstanding job of taking you through the plot. Surprises at every corner and yet you realize you should have of course expected it.
If we were in the days of past with unichannel consumption of entertainment content, Andhadhun could've easily achieved the iconic status Jaane Bhi Do Yarron enjoys today. Simply outstanding!
An easy 10/10 on my most picky scale.
Fired (2010)
Fantastically scary! Gem filled with amazing special effects
As Joy Mittal, Rahul Bose plays a truly troubled soul. You oscillate between hating him to feeling really sorry for him. For one, this movie is going to make it hard for people to work late nights in deserted office buildings. Every sound is going to make your skin crawl. The movie is filled with numerous special effects! The intertwining of the different media used for VFX are outstanding. Amazing feat considering the movie is practically 10 years old! The roping of moments within the story and tying them up in the end is fabulously done.
If you're into scary movies, hold on to that popcorn because you're going to get blown away.
