Lupin (2021)
Classic Tale with Twist
Love the storytelling and the acting! Great start on Netflix 21' and excited to see part2!
The Witcher (2019)
The Witcher review: no spoilers
One of the greatest book adaptations on to the T.V screen The Witcher flows seamlessly making it able to immerse newcomers with no idea of any prior material related to the plot. The actors are phenomenal and the tone and pace of the show perfectly aligned with the books and games.
The cinematography is beautiful as it captures the world of a witcher in a spectacular manner while being faithful to the source material. It has the right amount of darkness, fantasy and action blended perfectly with not a tad bit of making it over the top or underwhelming.
The real hero although that must be mentioned is its screenplay which made it a faithful and inspired adaption of the novels.
Rating:4/5

Total Dhamaal (2019)
Total dhamaal isn't dhamaal
TOTAL DHAMAAL
1: A very over hipped up film for the masses which contains a lot of sleazy and predictable comedy.
Now if this film would have released in say the beginning of 2018 then maybe it could have won the masses hearts but with the success of badhai ho etc the masses have also decided to love good stories and not the cast so now let us go to our section which is
Things that may work
1. CAST: The biggest thing that can bring the audience to the theater is the cast which mostly all these big budget films try to do. The mantra for success for a hit in India is the *CAST BRINGS THE MASS*
2.CHILDREN: The reason why many people will go although even not liking the content is the children. Kids need such films THEY CAN'T BE BORN AS CRITICS RIGHT? If you are dying to get the sweet kiss from your kid then don't read this review and just go to the hall and enjoy
3. DHAMAAL: the first film of the franchise has a fair amount of cult. Hence the people may go for it seeking a similar film
THING WHICH MAY NOT WORK
1. WORD OF MOUTH: Mark my word this film is not going to get a good word of mouth as till the end of the film you feel the sense of sleaze and would not try to experience this again.
2 NO CREATIVITY: I hate films which are made with the same story but with a bigger budget (e.g baaghi 2)coz the story of this film is just the same as Jamaal
DHAMAAL TOTAL DHAMAAL
The secret was of ten crores The secret is of 50 crores
The classic helicopter scene The same helicopter scene
The same ending
NOW let's MOVE ON TO THE REVIEW
Acting: To be frank none of the actors put an impact on me at the end.No one could be remembered like KAMLI (Sanju). Even great actors like Sanjay Mishra and Ajay Devgn didn't put an impact on me Sanjay Mishra kept on calling Ajay Devgn bro and after a point it became irritating.
SONGS: The songs of the film is PURE S***. I Hated them the lyrics are less the background score is louder and irritating.
WRITING: THERE IS NOT MUCH WRITING DONE FOR THIS FILM EXCEPT FOR BRO BRO BRO BRO BRO AND SOME STUPID SLAPSTICK PUNCHES
SCREENPLAY: SCREENPLAY IS LAZILY PENNED. EACH CHARACTER DOES NOT KNOW WHY THEY ARE DOING AND WHAT.
VFX: The only thing to go for this film is the vfx IF YOU LIKE TO WATCH SUCH STUFF THEN GO FOR IT
ANIMALS: The adventure part of the film with animals is also a thing to go for but if i just wanted to see animals on screen then i would rather go to a zoo.
FINAL VERDICT: IF YOU HAVE A FAMILY WITH KIDS THEN DO GO FOR THIS FILM. BUT IF YOUR FAMILY IS INTERESTED IN GOOD CINEMA THEN DON'T JAM YOUR HEADS AND EMPTY YOUR POCKETS ON THIS FILM. I would rather watch GULLY BOY OR URI THIS WEEK IF I WOULD BE GOING ALONE.
RATING
2/5
SORRY FOR THE LENGTHY REVIEW I'LL MAKE IT SHORT NEXT TIME AND DO MARK IT HELPFUL IF YOU LIKED IT
Gully Boy (2019)
Apna time agaya? This one is a perfect
Bollywood and music pair is like Romeo & Juliet. Truly made for each other. Together they have successfully traveled from Classical to Pop. So how different is this one? Is Gully Boy just a musical bonanza for rap lovers?
The script is simple yet delivers a powerful message on self-belief, hard work, following one's passion & ensuing success. The pace of the movie is brisk and dialogues peppy, which covers up for 2 hrs 36 mins of the long reel. Zoya Akhtar (director) & Reema Kagti (writer & screenplay) have done good work. And the actors have done a splendid job too. Difficult to judge who was better amongst Vijay Raaz, Siddhant Chaturvedi, Vijay Sharma, Alia & Ranveer. Of course, the last name being cherry on the cake. Brilliant work dude! If acting is the heart of Gully Boy then music is its soul. I am no lover of Rap neither do I have much knowledge of it but whatever I heard on screen today was terrific. Lovely lyrics, melting music & bombastic beats. Definitely a deadly deal! Often we get confused with musical dramas, whether it's more of M or D. Thankfully, this one strikes a perfect balance which makes it a hit, at least for the younger generation and those who are young at heart.
Ek Ladki Ko Dekha Toh Aisa Laga (2019)
Eek Ladki Ko Dekha Toh Aisa Laga Bit Slow Paced but a film with Heart
3.5 Star (Spoiler Free)
A unique refreshing film which tells us that LOVE come in many forms and cant be judged on gender base or debated on being Western or Traditional . This film is a bit slow in its pace but has its heart and emotions right in place , a heart touching film with a elite narration and is refreshing and fresh . Go for it without any second thought only in the cinemas
THINGS TO LOOK OUT FOR
>Performances have been top notch startig from Anil Kapoor ji , Rajkumar Rao, Juhi Chawla Ji and the complete ensemble caste has delivered amazing performance
>The theme of this film is fresh bold and heart touching and is sure to win your hearts by its end
>Music if the film is great and at an soothing point
>Screenplay is besutifully written and stitched, though its a bit slow at points but is a delight to watch
>The way emotions have been presented is simply amazing
NEGATIVES
>The pace of this film could be one negative that you feel while watching
>Climax could have been simplified then being way too dramatic
FINAL VERDICT
Definetly a unique film and has a very beautiful message to the society who judge love as per their prespective . Walk in to the cinemas and watch this tale of love with all your heart
Manikarnika: The Queen of Jhansi (2019)
Great Movie, it's a one time watch.
Must watch for Kangana's acting and the movie content !
Performance (especially Kangana, though the supporting cast is exceptional too), costumes, score,... cinematography - everything in the film works very well. Editing could have been better - in many places, the events feel disjointed, though admittedly, because the screenplay had to jump places, ...I cannot imagine what could have been done to make it more easy-flowing.... Kangana;'s performance goes a full arc from an innocent but brave teenager, a wife and lover, a mother and to finally a patriotic warrior, and she nails every shade with priceless facial expressions...
