Love J Action (2021– )
3/10
Utter waste of time
23 October 2023
Good caste, very good effort by the actors, must appreciate them at least. But someone here obviously thought they are smarter and more creative, so lets do something to grab attention and do something dramatic to make people talk about this...not realising that yes OTT's nowadays make it a point to include gay/lesbian angles or sub plots to gain extra milage and increase shock value, but that portion is usually only that much percentage of the show that they fell justifies inclusion of that angle. In this case, the whole story ends with that being the surprise angle. And in effect, it killed the whole series in one shot. Completely destroyed the show. Its quite obvious the reviews rated 10 are all biased, one can make out from how many have found it helpful. That says the story. I feel sad for the actors who put in so much effort. This was a cheap trick and anyone sensible could have told them how the audience was going to take this. You cant be manufactering suspense out of the hat whenever you feel like it without building up even a tiny bit. Plain ridiculous.

Adiyae (2023)

What a fantastic waste! avoid.
29 September 2023
I was like 'oh wow' finally someone will treat this genre with proper attention in Indian cinema...what an utter waste of time. I was bored within the first 10mins...still kept hoping my judgement was bad maybe I am impatient, so kept watching, hoping against hope that this time invested wont go waste...but no...this gamble failed badly. I mean as viewers if we have access to this huge database of movies...film makers are not able to guage if their movies are entertaining or not? And they fail so badly? Its just taking time to tell anything at all. So my advice to readers is just save your time, and opt for the next best option.

Sergeant (2023)
2/10
An utterly frustrating waste of time.
3 August 2023
Sergeant, starring the talented Randeep Hooda in the lead role, it showcases the actor's remarkable range and his ability to completely immerse himself in a character. His physical transformation for the role is awe-inspiring, highlighting his commitment to his craft. Randeep Hooda simply stands out in the film as Sergeant Nikhil. The movie description completely gave a false idea of storyline. The movie doesn't have a different story, no suspense or action, all we see a cop going down the lane with alcohol and depression But we do hope that it gets better, he will make smart decisions or solve the case and will be appreciated in the end but we just keep on waiting and waiting. Still wondering what the makers have made..

Randeep Hooda was the key factor to see this movie but it was really not clear where was movie leading to....the story doesn't have any turns it keeps on revolving on some general factors. An utterly frustrating waste of time. You will end up getting as frustrated as Randeep was in this film.

Bawaal (2023)
3/10
Wow what a hoax of a movie.
26 July 2023
Tough to imagine Nitesh Tiwari doing a movie like this. He s one person I have high hope from. I don't think even he will want this to be on his profile. Quite a illogical twist to have a reputed Indian filmmaker decide to use WW II to base his Indian love story which has nothing to do with it and end up getting more disturbed by WW II events than the citizens of those countries. Killer logic.. What has the name Bawaal got to do with the movie? WW II? Really? What's the dialogue used in other hindi movies...Dimag se paidal..does the filmmaker think the audience is dumb enough to fall for this? Ajiu bhaiya is so smart that he has fooled all interviewers who have ever interviewed him for his job. Anne Frank s tragedy, WW II, gas chamber...what the hell is going on...combined with zero chemistry between the lead pair...Varun and Jahnvi...leads us to zero...Story does not make much sense. Even if there were some emotional moments, audience doesn't connect. Considering the directors last work had super high expectations.. he was sensible to release this on OTT or else it would have been disaster ... You just can't relate to the movie. Just avoid! Or recommend to people you don't like. Looking at the number of high rankings this movie has got...I would pay to see interviews of people who have rated this movie 10. That I am sure would make for some really good viewing. More fun than the movie. Poor Direction, Poor Screenplay, Poor story line. The comedy was forcefully slid in between the scenes. Everything since the beginning was like pretentiously trying to make scenes funny. It makes you think why is this, what is this, was this meant to be funny, or emotional. There are no good bollywood films anymore these days feeling sorry for this industry, what happened to them why don't they make good films anymore, do movies like this even generate profit?

Trial Period (I) (2023)
7/10
nice fresh clean movie
26 July 2023
Its a cutsy feel good movie. Quite a fresh feeling movie. Stands out on its own among the trash being churned out by the current movie making bollywood factory. Worth seeing with your family. Both the two young boys are also a refresing change of young actors...they add their own pizzaz to the movie. Manav Kaul has got it right down to the casting as well.

All in all it provides a unique take on his brand of creative view and story. Looking forward to more and more of such projects. Give it a while to settle on you and you will like how it opens up. Time well spent for viewers..and that too with the family!

Ek Duje Ke Vaaste 2 (2020– )
10/10
The serial is such that next season can be made by crowd sourcing
26 February 2023
The story of the show is so powerful that it has been able to capture the hearts of the audience and make them feel a part of the story. The show has been able to do this despite the frequent changes in the cast, which suggests that the production house underestimated the show's potential. The show has been able to create a strong emotional connection with its viewers, which is why it has been so successful. Very well done indeed. But it's surprising how they have not been able to convince Kanika Kapur to continue and they lost a major part of the audience. It's unfair to compare Vidhi the actor who replaces Suman. Obviously she is unable to rise to fill the vacuum left behind by the original Suman. So much of cast change seems to point to that fact that the production house took it very casually and were not able to judge the show s popularity while it was going on.

Even now the production house has not able to capitalise the crazy fan following that this series has developed. There are independent discussions going on to crowd source and produce season 3, yet the original production house has not won this on the social media. There seems to be close to no interaction with the loyal audience.

Don't say you weren't warned! This means war....sorry..this means waste of time! (because profanity isn't allowed)
4 December 2021
Avoid avoid avoid. Anyone expecting any kind of fun is going to be disappointed...Seriously. But..it follows a certain trend. Movie makers I think are feeling that since most of us can't move out so easily, are going to be ok with any kind of trash...are throwing the same at us...they seem to be following a checklist of some sorts...you can join my fan list ...this review will be the most honest of all.

Disappointing and a letdown.
3 July 2021
Tapsee pannu kind of raised expectations...but the movie doesnt connect with the audience. Not able to hold attention. All sequences seem cliched. Which is a tad disappointing, because there are so many good examples to get inspired from...and all they could do was this limp biscuit! Pls dont waste your time with this. I seriously want imdb to block people who have rated this 10 on 10.

Ok for a one time watch
31 March 2021
Good acting by all. Very good attention to detail. As the poster shows...its a woman oriented theme...and it brings out the issues of a young woman who has tragically lost her husband too soon. Very real projection and acting by all. The title though is misleading. I watched it expecting it to be a fun come message movie, but it was not fun...it rightfully had a moral message and delivered it well. It is a serious kind of movie,,,not fun as the name suggests. I can't understand the logic about the name. Maybe they didn't want the title to show the seriousness of the movie so as to not scare away the audience expecting a masala movie.

Totally avoid. Title is a watch bait!
31 March 2021
The title is the only catch this series has. The makers are banking on the name and location to get the crowd. But I think their budget got over after the snacks and drinks at occasion of deciding the name and location of story. After that, I think the actors must have funded it. Because it has sunk the series after the first 5 minutes. So pls see this series for 10mins and get motivated to write a review here, just so that such makers understand that such trash will not and should not be permitted.

A waste of time. Just avoid.
31 March 2021
Its ridiculous how such series are allowed to go live. Isn't there anyone in their team who could have told them the truth? Its ridiculous. And Prateik babbar has either not being well directed or I don't know what to say...he I thought had great potential...but off late the few movies and then this series that I am series are pretty disappointing. He is looking funny in this. Sad to see him reduced to this. I really wish him well and hope he is taken up by a good director.

Completely ignore this movie and the fake 10 star reviews
17 March 2021
I wonder how people are allowed to get away with making these kind of movies. Don't they have anyone who can tell them that this is ridiculous? And the reviewers who have given this movie 10 stars should be blacklisted by IMDB. This is what is giving IMDB reviews a bad name.

Its like a half full meal..
26 December 2020
Starts with a lot of promise...ends a damp squib. Actors did their part....story didn't have the punch to carry it through. The actors were very good...great acting...but..as a movie..it wasn't a satisfying experience.

Junk movie, well made by school boys on leave
10 December 2020
Pls avoid this movie and you will bless me for this. Absolute junk. Avoidable at all costs. A school student will tell you a better story than this mindless junk. Anyone reviewing this with higher ranking ..take pains to go and downgrade all the reviews made by that person, because you know he is a paid reviewer. Take that extra effort to discourage people from giving fake reviews.

Waste of time! Don't believe anyone rating this movie over 4
30 October 2020
Low budget movie. The lead actor has a lot of potential, wasnt given much meat to go on. An utter waste of a movie and the time spent watching it.

what in the blazes was the movie all about?
21 April 2020
WTF??? Such a great start, zero entertainment. Am sorry, was this supposed to be a indie or art film, then maybe my review is all wrong....my apologies. But if this was meant to be mainstream commercial movie...then it sucked big time. Utter waste of time. Pls there should be a warning about such time wasters...

Its a feel good movie. Ignore the technical buffs
13 January 2020
Its a movie that tugs at your heart strings...right out of the school books. A good movie to see and show the kids. And encourage the Marathi film makers. I personally enjoyed even the songs..even though I don't understand Marathi as a mother-tongue. In short, I loved the movie. Sonali was overacting,,,not authentic at all. Bad casting. For someone whose job was to go up and down the hills, she kept fumbling and hamming the fear factor of the steep jumps. And the mishaps was all in a linear expected fashion one after the other...predictable. The director hasn't put enough effort. Special effects were very sad, pathetic and embarrassing. Shows the limited budget/low creative thought. Shivaji Maharaj ...such a revered personality...wasn't represented well. The Raigad fort wasn't shown in all its glory, but I guess that is due to budget limitation. Still, I enjoyed the movie. am sure lots of you will. Just watch with an open mind.

how come all the good reviews on the same date?
12 January 2020
Has anyone noticed a trend? all the 10 out of 10 rated reviews of this movie are on the same date 12th April...quite amazing isn't it?!? what does that imply? and if it is so obvious, why doesn't IMDB put a simple algorithm for filtering out stuff like that? it doesn't even need AI.

The movie is not about a disaster, it is a disaster in itself!
15 April 2019
The movie is not about a disaster, it is a disaster in itself! There's zero chemistry between the lead couple. Sushant is great, Sara was breathtakingly beautiful in interviews, but in the movie, she sticks out. The direction is very very weak. When I see such movies, I always think, wasn't there one person their whole review team who could have told the director or producer to save their money and not release this flop show? Not one person in the whole freaking gang???? And please, it's a request to IMDB, update your AI based algorithms to filter out reviewers who rate such overwhelming flop shows with 7 and above stars...quite obviously they are paid marketers. And they tend to discredit the rating system of the platform on which they exist by influencing some viewers with false positive opinions just to achieve their person commercial goals. I have seen some people rating this 10/10 and I don't think even the star cast thinks likewise...check it out for yourself.

Its a huge let down. Watch with no expectations...
2 November 2018
I am personally a huge fan of war movies and it takes a lot for me to rate it lower. But this movie is made on the border template. Without application of thought. Same type of character building, same style of back story. And just when the tempo would get exciting, they cut the tempo with flashback or some song. Sad editing. It could have been fast and furious. But alas. All my loyalty could not make me like it.

Amazingly dull, depressing and deary...wonderfully all at the same time
7 June 2018
Having watched a lot of these types of movies, I will say that caught on the clues and the movie still managed to surprise me I must say! I expected a low quality movie cheap effects and two line story. But no! It was outright frustrating and crap all together. Its quite an effort to churn out such surprisingly dull and boring stuff. Hats off to the makers.

Unbelievably tacky and total brain rot
29 May 2018
War Chod Na Yaar flop fame Faraz Haider is at it again.All his concepts sound great on paper, execution looks like someone from audience without experience decided to make it for him. Frankly, I saw it because of Abhay Deol. I thought he could do no wrong. He couldn't be part of a ridiculous project. But he has risen to the occasion and surprised me badly. I got pissed off with the movie maybe because I was expecting too much because of him..I cant say...but I would advise to refrain from this failed experiment.
