Fool Me Once (2024)
Slow burning
Fool Me Once is a series based on a book of Harlan Coben. It is story about a war veteran Maya Stern who is suspended from army due to disobey order and killing innocent civilians. Married to a business tycoon Goe, they have a liitle girl. Suddenly her world collapsed when she came to know her sister was murdered during a robbery in her own home. Just after that her husband was also killed. Devastated Maya has suspicion regarding her sister's death and she started to dig the issue. The more she went deep the more destructive information came out. Police officer Sami Kierce was investigating the case and almost caught everything up. The plot goes parallel with two investigations and ended with bigger truth and tragedy.
Whole series was slow burning. Well structured plot and sequence lead to an enjoyable story. But all i really enjoyed was the acting of the police detective Sami Kierce. Adeel Akhter just blew the whole series with his acting skill.
Thiruchitrambalam (2022)
Sudden Surprise
All of a sudden i sat and started watching the movie. Had zero expectations. But with an amusement i liked the movie. It is about love and friendship where a boy from a unhappy family trying to live his life without any ambitions. A tragic accident made him coward and also named as Darpok. Rejection in every step of his life, career and relationships broke him totally. But his father's stroke made the father and son close again. His search for love suddenly ended and he discovered all over the life his love was in front of him and he couldn't see.
The full movie was fully anticipated but i liked the plot, the emotions and finally the comic scenario all over the movie run time. Finally, it is a family movie with full of humers.
Blue Eye Samurai (2023)
Revenge story
A damn good revenge story. Storyline is very speedy. Did not wanted to halt for a moment. Even i watched it in the way to my office. Plot is about a blue eyed mix Japanese Samurai (Mizu) wanting revenge to his probable father. At the time Mizu was born, there were four white man in Japan and Mizu's prostitute mother slept with all of them. Mizu was treated as demon in the village as in Japanese culture outriders were not welcomed. Then he took refuge to an swordmaker and trained himself as an worthy Samurai to take revenge against all those white man as he didn't know which one is his father 😜.
So this season is only about one white man. Series is full of nudity and severe violences. So be careful,do not watch it with elderly or little ones.
Highway Love (2023)
Dull
IMDB rating insisted me to watch this series. Was not too much exited from the beginning as I already saw the plot off the movie and assumed it will be a dull romantic series. As my wife was interested, took the chance if there anything new. But at the end it was same old story and so on. Two persons, completely different and fall in lovr with each other. But the philosophy of leading the life was not same and conflict arose. One wants to go spain and other to stay in India. The question is who wins ultimately?
Actors was as usual, the cinematography was realy good, probably the only good aspect of the series.
Dahaad (2023)
Serial Killer
Dahaad is the story of a serial killer. It is inspired by a true story.
The story starts with an investigation of an eloped couple where the girl was from a powerful family in the region. During the investigation, police found a missing girl from a poor family. Further inquiry leads the police to more missing girls where all were eloped and were not in contact at all with the family. One of the missing girls was found dead in a bathroom. It was a suicide case and self-efface was done by Cyanide. Police were suspicious about the Cyanide as this drug was not available to local people in the area. The peculiarity in the case attracted the high command of the police and instructed them to find out the truth behind the incidents.
It was a wonderful journey with Anjali Bhaati, a lower-caste police officer who was trying to do her job despite being humiliated by the higher-caste people. Thanks to her immediate superior who helped her to crack the case. As the plot was taken from real life incident, can not praise much about it. But the submission of the event in the celluloid was much to appreciate. The acting was superb with the portrayal of the caste problem in India.
Gumraah (2023)
Average
Sometimes for relaxation, you need some average movies. During the holidays need some movies where I do not need much attention.
The plot was simple, but the ending was unexpected. The first scene started with the killing of a man brutally. Later two man's life was portrayed. One is sober and successful and went into a relationship with a nice girl. The second one is a goon and fraud, trying to maintain a livelihood in an illegal way. Both were apprehended for the murder. Police got confused because of the alibi. Both have a solid alibi for the night when the man was killed. And after a lot of drama police failed to produce evidence and both of them were released as the court can not punish an innocent person.
Personally speaking, I did not expect the ending as it portrayed. If you have enough time in your hand not to do anything then you can go for the movie.
Operation Fortune: Ruse de Guerre (2023)
Ok
At first i need to tell why i saw this movie. Well, this because i am a fan of jason statham. Although he always acted same in all movies. But still, i like his boldness and voice. Plus point is his action, though have seen a little in this movie. Did not expected much from the film but i have to say the spotlight was moved from statham to hugh grant. One scene grant just did a marvelous job. I saw the scene 3 times. Other actors were average except cary elwes. Liked his passion and pronunciation. What i can say more working should be done on the script. Specially movie star concept were built but not synchronised properly. All of my 7 star goes to Hugh Grant.
Morbius (2022)
Average
If this movie was released a decade ago, i would give a 8 star. But after watching dozens of movies like Morbious, it will be considered as an average movie. Though it was entertaining but failed to produce a plot which is out of the box.
Dr. Micheal Morbious was born with a rare blood disease which is leading him to death. His mate Milo is also in the same situation as morbious is. So Morbious sacrificed his life to invent the cure of the disease and found a hope with bat gene. But experiment goes wrong and disaster begin to happen. This is the storyline in simple words. Jerad Leto is a genius actor and portrayed Joker in DC Universe. But Morbiuos did not let him utilized his best as there were nothing in the sript for him. But an intriguing situation will come at the end of the movie as Morbious is started to connect with the rest of the Marvel Universe. Hope next movie will portray character Morbious more strongly and will use the best of Leto.
Glass Onion (2022)
It's ok
When this movie was realeased on netflix i was amused and determined to watch it. First movie was a masterpiece so expectations on this movie was high. Additionally Edoward Norton joined with Daniel Craige which gave me goosebumps. In a weekend i sat and watched Glass Onion. Cinematography was wonderful. It's a colorful movie. But the thing came in my mind after watching these was all negativity in the script. It was not concrete, may be the director wanted a sucess with the stars casted in the movie. I almost had the idea of the murderer at some point of this movie through the process of elimination. But i am going to say 'It's Ok' regarding the movie because the twist of the sisters. Lastly i need to admit the acting of Daniel Craig as he just came out from the bond images.
The Batman (2022)
Splendid
I did not think that this movie is going to make me write this passage. My firends who watched this movie mentioned watching this movie it is not going to be worthy. Still i saw it. Surprisingly i was entertainted. Acting, srcipt and the theme music altogether was wonderful. This Batman is so human, avoiding the unnatural superhero typo. Rebert as batman also was a splendid addition. Firstly the scrip was well written and not a single scene was off the gear. Secondly, the dark theme of batman was shown in a way which i always though it should be. Acting of all actors were precise and well done. Lastly i must say about the music, i loved the theme music. Most of the credit of my positive review for this movie will go for the theme music.
