Chernobyl (2019)
This is why HBO wins over Netflix
**SPOILERS**
It's very academic but it's haunting. The real scene of core explosion or the core itself was of few seconds but the actors, script, environment and sadly the reality of the event made the magnitude of the event beyond our comprehension. This is why HBO wins over Netflix. They know which stuff matters. I bet like me there were many who didn't know exactly what happened at Chernobyl and after watching this, we feel satisfied, complete and responsible. The vintage tint to the scenes, the cars, the naked miners, the falling helicopter. The cinematography is Noaln level here. But in the end HBO makes it about us. This miniseries is all about Humans. Pride, ignorance, arrogance, shame, duty, honesty, sedition, you name it, all higher values are judged here. And in the end how much was it really happened and how much it was a fictional, the fact lies that official death count is still 31 whereas unofficial goes to 93,000. That gives us the magnitude of the event happened and which was kept silent for decades.
Ghoul (2018)
A hard slap to so called Nationalists.
This mini series exceeded my expectations by being just more than a horror show. This is a hard slap to the Indian fringe elements who stereotype Muslims as terrorist. Yes it's a fiction, but the message echoes loud and clear through out the series. Loved it for its subtle touches to one of many possible future of whatever is happening in this country. No doubt they had to release it on Netflix. This would have 100 bans from censorship. Go for it.
Breaking Bad: Say My Name (2012)
I refuse to accept this stupidity. Very angry.
I was ok till now with Walter's stupidity. But killing Mike? What the hell! Jonathan Banks (Michael Ermhantraut) was one of the best characters in the show. Certainly better than Walter. He was a certified badass. And what he said to Walter was absolutely correct if seen from a third person's view. Walter HAD to be a man at the wrong time. He HAD to loose the temper at the wrong time. And because of his stupidity Kaylee won't get the money and killing mike!? Walter deserves to die.
