Fighter (2024)
The Director delivers!
The Director Siddharth Anand, despite his last work on Pathaan, did a so-so job but here did his best work ever in the film. I had tears in my eyes at 2 moments, the last time I cried was watching K3G, PRDP. This means the message he wanted to deliver to the audience, he has done it very well. The supporting character roles of Karan, Sanjeeda and Akshay were small yet deep jolts to the movie's storyline. And the surprising cameo of Ashutosh Rana made the crowd in theatre cheer! From Bang Bang to Fighter, this is the best work of Sidd Anand in the spy genre. HRX, Deepika and Anil Sir - Amazing.
Shehzada (2023)
From 6 Stars to 9
I have watched ala vaikunthapuramaloo with subtitles in English, and it was the first South Indian film which I watched with subtitles & in original language. The movie is so solid... I was going to give this remake 6 stars but after I watched more, the film brought out more fruitfully. This movie more stressed on things which weren't in the original one but for the rest of the scenes copied, mistakes were there like first few slow motion shots were very slow. And that tera mala was very cheesy. And Manisha Koirala's acting through the first half was not looking good with such accent. But this movie had me laugh and entertain myself, all thanks to Kartik Aryan's solid punchlines & cameo of Rajpal Yadav 🤣. One thing I regret more chemistry between Kartik & Kriti, like Allu Arjun Sir And Pooja Hegde had. Kriti Sanon's screen time was so much less. One more thing, I didn't like both the actors Kartik & Allu Sir cuz I haven't seen any of their movies but I eventually got fond of both the actors. If there were some more scenes from original one, this movie could have been liked by all and a blockbuster. Songs were good & Sonu Nigam's voice is a treat to ears. Also Debbatama's screen time was also very less, could have given more.
Pathaan (2023)
Gave me nostalgia of War
SRK is not my fav actor. But by the story. Vfx, acting, direction, I am really impressed! It's like War with many twists, which I will like you to experience in the cinemas. Various references has been used from movies YRF Spy Universe movies. The sequence of every minute thing fits in the movie, the way all the elements were fitted in the movie. This brings back the missing element that was not seen in the Bollywood movies from the last 2 years, even not Brahmastra. This is the 2nd film of SRK which will be added in my fav Indian movies, the 1st one is K3G. Although, I speculated some plot twists like I did in War but when you have already speculated that this was going to happen, then more twists come in the way which make the unexpected because we watchers feel proud in speculating things, but mind of Siddarth Anand is top-notch. Hats off! You will really enjoy it if you have been a fan of films like Commando series, Ek tha tiger series, War, etc. Don't indulge in the negativity spread by boycotters and if you are one of them just go watch latest video of Dhruv Rathee, unbiased NRI but his heart & soul is for India. Although the film, brought back memories of the film Force 2 in which John Abraham played from the positive side.
Willow (2022)
The season finale is an epic masterpiece
At first, I was really confused when the episode started. But the things changed, it made be hooked till the end. I will salute to the person who created this final episode. They way it ended was like epic. I really don't have any words to express this, I am just repeating same thing again & again. Although the series was first slow because it was establishing itself & I found it better than the mighty Lord Of The Rings: The Rings Of Power. I am really excited about season 2. I recently got to know about it & watched it's prequel movie first. And was amused by storyline. Well the storyline is better in the series than the movie. The cast of actors seems like I have seen them earlier, I have connected with them but I only know the actor who played Flash Thompson in MCU & Sony's Spiderman.
Cirkus (2022)
Harsh Truth
I don't know why people are not liking this people. People are calling this movie outdated. Yes it is. But there is also a group of people who like to experience of Nostalgia. And yes forceful humor can be seen, it can be seen. If you look back Mohenjo Daro also flopped due to the same reason. I will remember these 2 movies which were not praised well because the audience isn't mature much or the audience only wants know sci-fi action and thriller type movies. And while making this movie we have to see what we can't do in it because it is set a few past years ago. So, I will like if people watch this movie by the perspective it should be viewed.
Bhediya (2022)
Aag lagadi
I don't have words to describe this movie. I was like waiting for scenes in the trailer to be shown in the movie. I ws trying to investigate the mysteries in the movie, but the climax shook me. And I have experienced first time credit scenes in an Indian movie. There has been many end-credit songs but never any end-credit scenes. This increases the ideology of the film and multiple theories which can be put in front the viewers. If you haven't watch this movie, don't have a mindset that you are going to watch a superhero movie like Marvel does. This is a different & unique movie. And you have to have a mindset like you are going to watch a movie like the jungle book
movie (2016). I laughed a lot at some scenes. And the crave waves were radiated from me at some ultimate scenes.
But I am sad about thing which I won't spoil for you! Hope the that thing changes in future.
Ram Setu (2022)
Spoiler free review
Although the movie's mistakes were huge in professional terms but the script written by the writers was hats off. The script was made in such a way that people from both sides of beliefs were not hurt at all. I personally don't think the Adam's Bridge is whole Ram Setu or it is a small part of Ram Setu if Valmiki's calculations were correct or correctly interpreted. The film was very serious on it's topic & it didn't deviated it from it's purpose. I liked watching this movie & gave me nostalgia to Oh My God! (OMG). And the fighting scenes were not liked so-called movie scenes which are impossible or rarely possible to be done in real life.
The Lord of the Rings: The Rings of Power (2022)
A solid answer to haters
This season's finale was a solid answer to all the haters of this series, who said that this show is very slow placed. How the stories come forward forging into one masterpiece finale is epic. From this season's ending, it give's a hint to how the hobbits form from harfoots although this journey may not be part of the 5-season show. And how wizards origin in the middle earth. More is to come in the following seasons. I haven't read the J. R. R. & C. J. R. Tolkein's books but will start reading after watching this epic masterpiece. I hope in future, we may get some movies on the Middle-Earth. I rarely gives reviews on IMDB but I give them genuinely from my heart. I will suggest to watch the series in continuation if you haven't started yet as to you it will appear slow paced as it is a TV Show. The beauty is wonders, and the actors are also good. I am not giving any spoiler here... while I want to give them but can't.
Brahmastra Part One: Shiva (2022)
Honest Review
First of all BGM was good
VFX was top notch, no doubt
Dialogues could have been better, it sometimes feel like a tv show/ series is going on.
Critics still will criticize it but the film was overall good but not perfect.
I think there is a major setback in writing the script & role of Alia Bhatt has not been given justice. Even in the trailer her dialogues were looking cringy.
Classic feel of Bollywood ( Starting scenes too )
Songs were well-fitted and mood-pumping
Amitabh Bachchan's voice & role was pivotal.
Some scenes very too fast & some scenes very too slow
It is great experiment to try out the Hindu Mythology in Modern world in this format.
I hope makers of the movie learn from their mistakes, and implement changes well in the 2nd part if it's get green signaled!
Thor: Love and Thunder (2022)
Phase 4 going bonkers
Spoiler Free Review although Marvel spoiled everything.
The worst mistake is to reveal a lot of things in trailers & teasers and after the movie releases, marvel start releasing more clips just after one day.
Extra Mistakes-
MOM was coming out before NWH but it didn't so the whole script was changed + 40 mins cuttage (Illuminati was really trash even my fav Xavier).
Ms Marvel- 2,3,4 episodes very slow, no hook points.
By my opinion episode 5 was even better than 1st.
Thor Love & Thunder- GOTG very less screen time, atleast 25 mins should be there. Plus, in a movie on character like Thor, we need a full to action all the time. Half of the time was just like a slow romcom.
I think Kevin Feige should just check what their editors are doing. The editors are idiots and I think they even didn't cross-checked by watching the selected movie clip.
Spider-Man: No Way Home (2021)
Spoiler free Review
The best Spiderman movie ever. I hope that it reach atleast 2 Billion USD in box office! I have no words to express how amazing that movie is. The craze created by the trailer is so high that 5 lakh tickets worth Rs. 16.50 crores got sold in just 40 hours for advance bookings! And I would like to see Tom Holland as spiderman in future movies also!
