Bonyo Premer Golpo (2020)
Predictable
The promos looked very promising but unfortunately the story telling is not compact. The acting is mediocre at best which I feel is something the direction is accountable for. The storyline is predictable and certain cinematographic decisions (example getting one actress to play the female protagonist in different storylines while casting different actors for corresponding male characters ) does nothing to elevate the storyline. The concept is intriguing but the stories are just meh.
Dark Chocolate (2016)
Terrible
Want to know how an enthralling, scintillating and complex story about relationships, betrayal and cold blooded murder can be turned into a dull, unconvincing movie ? Watch Dark Chocolate. I honestly didn't know what the point of this movie was! It did not present a PoV, it did not bring alternate interpretations of what had gone on in one of the most high profile murder cases in India. It doesn't even go on to present a conclusion.
Terrible acting from everyone except Mahima ( blame the direction). The only thing that worked for me in the film was the flashback scenes of young Ishani.
The direction is utterly rubbish, dubbing bad, story telling is horrible. Easter of a good Saturday afternoon on Amazon Prime
