Laapataa Ladies (2023)
A Must watch.
I regret not watching the movie in theaters. I can only say good things about this movie. From the opening act, this movie captivated me. Its witty, smart and entertaining all while delivering a message. Every one in the cast were excellent and cannot be singled out. The story line keeps you hooked and entertained till the final act and movie ends in such a note that it will get you in your feels.
This is my first time watching a Kiran Rao directed movie and I will definitely be waiting for her next project.
PS : If you like panchayat the TV series, you will love this . You will root for the characters as if you know them.
Family Star (2024)
Just Why?
My words might sound harsh but for how many years will we justify this type of nonsense movie making in the name of masala entertainment. We make fun and memes about Indian TV soaps but is this any better? I started watching the movie with open mind knowing very well that this genre of movie will be over the top flamboyant stuff happening. It started alright typical rom com , cringey but fine, then I guess the writers didn't write it, they improvised whatever plots on set. I clicked on the giant amazon front page banner ad because I have seen good movies of Deverakonda and now I am genuinely disappointed, especially after watching a beautiful movie like Laapata Ladies last night.
PS : Chota bheem is also a super reponsible charachter with high morale and protects his family and friends and his village and is still humble, that show has better story lines than this.
The Creator (2023)
cool visuals with plot holes
Very impressive visuals. Looks like a high budget movie. The plot is not very tight but the pacing is nice. As a scifi fan, this was enjoyable watch so I am ignoring most of the plot holes. The ending could have been better.
Nirmata - is from Sanskrit script from which many languages like Hindi and Nepalese are derived, so its not exclusively a Nepalese term.
People in "New Asia" are randomly speaking Hindi including the AI people which is weird cause they seemed to be located in Indonesia/Vietnam around that region. A little research from director would have been appreciated.
My real issue though is the score. It does not have a good background music, There are many cool visuals in the movie which would have been great with a good background music, which I think diminishes the overall experience.
Damsel (2024)
Latest guilty pleasure
Lets get the negativity first. The plot is paper thin but we don't watch these movies for plot. That being said this movie is pretty good for a netflix movie, better than many that comes out of netflix machine. It does look like a netflix movie though but the visuals are pretty good actually.
This is a one woman show and Millie Bobby Brown is very impressive. She has proved she can carry a whole movie alone & she is very likable. Rest of the cast had nothing to do. Queen Angela deserved better. Robin Wright is playing the same character in the exact same way like it was played before her by many people (even her pointy crown is the same).
I would say go for it. This is a good one time watch and fun ride if you are into fantasy.
Dune: Part Two (2024)
SPECTACULAR
One word : SPECTACULAR.
This is truly a cinematic masterpiece to be witnessed in a big screen. The visuals of first movie were impressive but this one even better. Every cast member did amazing job. This is not an average sci fi where in every scene some ka boom action is going on, but in every scene is important to the plotline. The fighting techniques were so unique. And the music by Hans zimmer gives chills. My favorite character is Lady essica played by Rebecca Ferguson. Timothee Chalamet was wonderful, his transition from a boy prince to a leader was fantastic. Zendaya was amazing as well. The third act of the movie was brilliant. Can not wait for the next installment.
