Laal Singh Chaddha (2022)
Watch it even if you watched Forrest Gump
Forrest Gump is one of my favorite movies of all time. Laal Singh Chadda is a remake of Forrest Gump, but it became its own movie and liked both in a different way. Recommended. Watched it in Netflix. Aamir Khan as usual has acted brilliantly, the supporting characters are also awesome. Saw Kareena Kapoor after a long time and it was a treat to watch her. You do have suspend your disbelief at some of Laal Singh Chadda's acheivements. But the pacing, storytelling, direction, background score was awesome, thank goodness I ignored the reviews and watched it when it was released in Netflix. Recommended.
Let's Fight Ghost (2021)
Fun watch with surprisingly a lot of heart
Good cgi, initially shaky but later on strong performance and chemistry between two leads Saint Suppapong and Orn (really goodlooking couple btw), ghost subplots which touch on important societal issues, very strong villain, tight editing and smooth flow of story - so it was a fun ride. Initially I felt irritated at two side characters who were too caricaturish for my taste, also the background music in their scenes was overwhelming. However this got resolved in the later episodes. What I liked about this series is doesn't give you a lulling sense of security (no matter what happens all major characters will survive) - there is no guarantee who will remain alive at the end. Yet against this backdrop we see a beautiful romance, manage to have a good laugh and see heart warming character developments. The ending was executed nicely too. If you are craving overall entertainment with a lot of action, this is the series for you.
