Laapataa Ladies (2023)
Good Bollywood movie after ages
Take a bow Kiran Rao and team. Don't get bit by big budget bug and continue giving us good movies like this. I just can't fault anything in this movie. Loved it. Feel good, sweet, funny, and a definite must watch by everyone. My family and I thoroughly enjoyed watching this movie.
Brilliant acting by every single actor. Especially the laapata ladies. One innocent and one bold and both did full justice to their characters.
Watching this movie made me realise what Bollywood really needs. Good directors like Kiran Rao. And non-nepo actors. Give the newbies and outsiders a chance and more movies like this.
Big Girls Don't Cry (BGDC) (2024)
Just MEH
Having had so many wonderful memories in my school years, I expected a lot from this series. Was sadly let down.
I've studied in an all girls convent. Was in one for 12 years, but the stories in this show is unbelievable and quite ridiculous.
What's with all this stick it to the man, sexually active teenagers? At their age they have an innocence and are learning but scared about the big bad world. None of that was shown.
And what is with the cast and cringe acting? Aneet Padda (Roohi) reminds me of Sara (Maxine Baker in Ginny and Georgia). They look similar, both are overacting and unlikeable.
Noor character is strong. But the actor who played her is super annoying. Overacting with her hand mannerisms.
Pluggy and that Dia characters and actors were just bad.
The rest of the cast were good. Kavyas mom will hold a special place for me.
If not for the cringe acting and weak story, this show would have been so much better.
Doctor Slump (2024)
In one word: Rubbish
Rubbish show. Rubbish story. Rubbish acting.
Why on earth Hyungsik agreed to act in this rubbish show is beyond me.
He's a good actor. Loved him in Bong Soon. Now that was a good comedy. This slump is just rubbish comedy.
Rubbish pairing. The leads have no chemistry. Just not good together.
I really want to know if there were any writers for this show at all. There's just no story with mental health references thrown in here and there.
And what's with the cast and their acting. Absolute rubbish acting. Over the top acting.
Had so much hope for this show. I'm just disappointed. So this was my rant.
Ms. Marvel (2022)
Cringe to the max
Being a south Asian and always biased towards anything Asian in Hollywood, I watched this. But it was just bad.
The actor who plays Kamala is so bad. I'm sure there are so many other younger girls who would have done a better job. Joining her in bad acting is her mother. Just awful
How is this even marvel quality? Expect much more when it's the marvel universe.
Syucheu (2018)
Stylish. Suave. Sexy
10/10 to the Korean team of Suits for giving us a fabulous show. The original is well known. And the korean team have made this in their own style. And it's great
Casting is perfect. Park Hyung Sik and Jang Dong Gun really are the heart of the show like Harvey and Michael in the original.
Special shout-out to Hyung Sik introduction scene in the club. Phew. The music. The slow motion. So stylish and so so sexy
If you've watched the Original version of Suits. Then watch this. You will see they have done full justice to it.
If you haven't watched the original version, great, watch this. You will love it.
Him-ssen yeo-ja Do Bong-soon (2017)
One of the good KDrama
Super cute, fun, great Rom com.
I didn't expect much from this show. But loved it. It's done well.
Main leads are cute together. Special shout-out to Park Hyung Sik. Loved him in this show
Watch it. You will like it.
Ssam maiwei (2017)
Must watch
Feel good - check
Cute rom com - check
Funny - check
Main leads with brilliant chemistry - double check
Interesting second couple - check
Watch it. Watch it for Park Seo Joon - this is his best. Watch it for Kim Ji Won - cute, sweet, hilarious. Makes a great couple on screen with SeoJoon.
Watch it. You will love it.
Gossip Girl (2021)
Trash
Awful - acting, actors, special awful shoutout to the blonde teacher and student.
Unrealistic- I don't even know what the writers are thinking
Stupid - director. Producers. Actors. Especially me for watching this
If you love the original Gossip Girl do not watch this. If you don't love the OG GG still do not watch this. Actually maybe you should, you'll like the OG better.
Nalssiga joeumyeon chajagagesseoyo (2020)
Heart warming
This show is like
-delicious hot chocolate on a freezing cold winters night
-hot tea on a rainy evening
-chicken soup when you're sick
-hot shower after walking home in the rain
-scrumptious hot pot with your loved one
-sitting in a bookstore, reading a great book and drinking coffee made by Seo Kang Joon -which I want, but can never have :-(
Bridgerton (2020)
Do not understand the 1/10 reviews
This show is a breath of fresh air. Feast to the eyes, royal, colourful, entertaining.
Enjoyed the show so much, made me buy the book. After having read it, prefer the show to the book.
I rate this show 9/10. Because 10/10 is perfect and Bridgerton is not. But it certainly does not deserve 1/10.
Never Have I Ever (2020)
9/10. Minus 1 point coz John McEnroe
After years of Patels and Kapoors and chicken tikka. Vishwakumar, Tamil and dosa is such a refreshing change. Great new show from Mindy Kaling , Netflix and the whole cast. Good new actors with great acting skills. Teen drama with it's funny and dramatic moments. Binged watched it in one evening and now waiting for season 2.
My only problem was McEnroe as a narrator. He was bland and sometimes made a good scene meh with just his voice. Please don't bring him back for season 2
Pretty Little Liars: Songs of Innocence (2015)
Done with this stupidity
This show had so much potential in the beginning. The first two seasons were great. After that nothing made sense. Teenage girls dressing to school like it was a fashion show; mindless, plot less twists; lots of filler episodes; producers and creators of this show concerned more about the popularity of the show on social media, than the show itself. The only reason I watched it was hoping to find out who A is or for some good TV. But that's it. Cannot spend any more time or thoughts on this preposterous show.
Someone says Andrew is Charles or A and everyone believes it? Seriously?! After everything they've been through and all possible suspects they've had till now they still continue with this.
There was absolutely nothing in this episode. Just a filler episode like how season 5 was a filler season.
Just going to watch the rest of the episodes as a marathon when the season is over. Cannot spend any more Tuesday's on this.
The Flash: Going Rogue (2014)
Awesome
The Flash is a great new show. It's a show I look forward to every Tuesday night. Going Rogue had humor, romance, thrills making it the most entertaining episode by far.
And of course the highlight of the show was seeing the awesome, Wentworth Miller as Captain Cold. Watching, Wentworth on screen again was an absolute treat. He was perfect as Leonard/ Captain Cold. Looking forward to seeing more of him on the show. The chemistry between Barry and Felicity was good. All in all a really good episode. Hope the show keeps going like this. And also hoping to see a lot more of Captain Cold
