Blackmail (2018)
Irfan Khan bedazzles in an exciting, though run-of-the-mill movie
I must admit at start that being Irfan Khan fan, the movie exceeded my expectations. It was a thrill ride from the start, right till the final shot, and even during credits if you are patient. Irfan Khan is a regular humdrum guy, a husband material in first glance. But as he pleasures himself looking at the pictures of wives of his colleagues, there is a certain unexplored side to his character that the movie builds upon. Not to give away too much, Irafn Khan drives the movie and there is no right/wrong as the movie navigates through the grey side of morality with people forced to do extreme actions in extreme circumstances. The movie could have given a better closure, but couldn't complain for the thrill ride.
Watchmen (2019)
An interesting sequel to the watchmen book and movie
Let me start by saying that it borrows elements mostly from the watchmen book, basin majority of characters on it, while introducing new interesting ones. The series captures the attention from first episode, with events happening at brisk pace in an engrossing and rich world. Dealing with themes of racism, vigilantism, cultism to name a few, it draws you in for a ride.
The cinematography is very good for a TV series. The acting added new depth while the characters of Looking Glass is my new Rorchasch.
What i did not like was the conclusion of story, and felt the writers trapped themselves into a corner.
