Do Aur Do Pyaar (2024)
Superficial, confused people
What I like in the movie is that marriage or relationship or commitment with another human will never always be exciting, adventurous and fun. If you are looking for a lifetime of adventure then you will still have to compromise on something, you can never have everything at everytime. This is the reality of life but the problem is the movie makers think having an affair by going behind another person is the solution to the problem. The only solution is you dealing with your own boredom, never expecting from any person to always keep you entertained and stimulated.
But clearly the makers don't want to get into the real issues of human life, they just want to be superficial, show superficial and romance the superficial. Honestly I am disappointed in the film industry as they really don't want to dwell into the reality but want to play safe by being relatable as most of us are superficial. Gosh I used the word so many times that I'm overwhelmed with it, ok bye.
Crew (2024)
Not exactly smart but decent
I know 'decent' shouldn't be the word used to describe a theft plot movie but seems like it fits to this one. The acting is awesome, a great entertainer, perfect casting is done. The plot doesn't bore you but surely it won't get you on the edge of your seats either, twists are easily predictable so no points to that. We can relate with the characters even though they all look highly polished and well nourished, they are air hostess in the movie so I guess it works. Everything is good except for the real logic, this movie isn't about real life or anywhere closer to real world but the plot is entertaining. Thankfully no one in the movie are trying too hard to make us laugh or to be funny, nothing was pushy, things are perfectly in place but again, except for logics. Please don't miss this one.
Heeramandi: The Diamond Bazaar (2024)
Forced, overdone, ugly.
I'm sorry but the women don't look beautiful, except some ofcourse, Aditi looks good she has even done good. Every other cast looks like a misfit to their characters, I think SLB's charm works when it is RARE. It'll choke if its gets too much, this is what I think has happened with Heeramandi.
This was a weird watch for sure, the costume looks so uncomfortable on the ladies. After watching this series I understood how important it is to 'work' on looking beautiful. I also understood the value of minimalism, everything was so much into each frame, you tend to feel uncomfortable enough to care about the story. And the worst part is the bad acting, I felt like there was supposed to be a balance in acting but all were doing over the top acting including Manisha, Richa, Sonakshi. I truly only like Aditi's acting, her presence, her charisma. She is the only character that looks like she is living the character, others are acting, and that fact is evident at every second of their screen presence.
I guess SLB should find depth into his craft rather than trying to out-do himself in regards of how grandeur each frame was, how glittery every costume was and how much more esthetic could be pushed. This was awkward, yes that's the word, awkward.
Yuva (2024)
A perfect feel good movie bringing back the joy!
YUVA, after the demise of Puneeth I lost hopes to see purity in the Kannada industry. I'm not saying this because now Puneeth is gone or I'm not one of them who are bursting with impulsive overwhelming emotions towards his death. I'm the one who always knew Puneeth was a yogi, just like his father this kid was also a yogi. Of course if only God had let to give him more years of life, he would have spiritually mastered through his karma yoga. But in the short span of his life, Puneeth has already probed he is a Yogi. I always say purity in his intentions, his visions, his focus towards supporting entertainment (good kind) and creating a supportive environment inside the entertainment industry. Puneeth wanted to give the right kind of entertainment, it was his profession, it was his karmic field. But after the demise I felt the purity missing I also felt loss of hope towards the industry.
BUT after watching this movie, Yuva, I could see Puneeth in you. You have his voice, the sharpness of his eyes and the purity of his heart. Shine brighter my boy, shine so much that it will eradicate the darkness of people's heart. Shine through every evilness. I always used to bless my Puneeth, used to made hand gestures to ward off evil from him but after his death I stopped it, there was no use of it. But I will do it for you, as you are the new successor to the throne.
I'm not saying all this because you are a part of Rqjkumar clan, no, I hate Vinay Rajkumar for his poor acting skills, I haven't seen any improvements in him since his first movie. Or maybe that's not true, there is improvements in his acting but it's extremely in small quantity. But you Yuva, your dedication was brightly visible in the arts that you learnt for one movie. You didn't just use body double, you learnt art, multiple arts in your very first movie. I salute to your dedication, will power and commitment. May you shine brighter, achieve everything you deserve and rule the field. God bless you Yuva. I'm proud of you, kindly continue to make us more proud.
Happy Family Conditions Apply (2023)
Senseless, hypocritical and selfish
There are 3 generation couple living in the same home, the latest generation couple are independent, opinionated, ambitious and upto the trend. I have major issue with the way the writers dealt with the latest generation couple. So cut to short, the husband goes on to cheat on the wife who is gorgeous, independent, a mother to his child, ambitious working women while being in good terms with the house members and she genuinely loves him. She doesn't even have issue in living with a joint family. She's perfect. The husband cheats on such a woman.
When we hear somebody cheating on their partner we get angry on them and question their conduct. The family member (his sister) confronts him when she realizes the affair of her brother. She looks very concerned for her bhabhi, angry on brother to be doing this, questions his conduct and didn't seem to approve of it at any cost. BUT everything changes when she understands he is a gay and was cheating on his wife with a guy.
Now the sister is not that angry, she is compassionate for the 'gay' in him. So now we should have compassion towards infidelity if it involves LGBTQ angle? Thereafter she doesn't bother at all for the sister in law, in reserve, she is concerned for the brother for his reality. Gay or straight it is still cheating, the woman is the victim of it.
The elderly person of the family (the older generation person) gets to know about this too. He is also okay with it, he even encourages to be courageous about it. Now I'm not against gay or LGBTQ in any which way, I would have loved it if that character was single. Why make a married man turn to be gay and the family supporting him just because he's a gay. That's again still cheating. This is such a disrespect to the woman.
In the end, the family members will one after another start to reveal their secrets, when this gay angle is revealed, the family is again not much bothered. In the end when the terrorist issue gets resolved even then the family is cool about it, they were infact fighting with each other about the revelations. How stupid, unrelatable, un-organic this is, I didn't find anything more pretentious other than this series. Truly hypocritical of the makers.
Love, Death & Robots: Jibaro (2022)
My rating is only for the art work and the imagination of it
My 5 rating is solely for the art department, because nothing else fascinated me in this episode. The reason I disliked this one is because the makers didn't give a clarity on what is the nature of that forest area and of the siren girl. First I thought the girl gets activated to attract people towards her when she smells greed, since the knight was deaf he couldn't be her prey. I also loved her vulnerability. Then they showed him murdering her over lust for wealth. Then all of a sudden the mother nature burst into anger and makes him vulnerable to the girl. I though maybe the siren girl was the mother nature but then how could she be? She was murdering people for no apparent reason. I actually felt pity for the knight because he was supposed to kill her otherwise she would have killed him out of love (since her body parts, limbs were made of gems and gold). He put efforts into sustaining himself even till the end but alas he died. So who should we sympathize for? The girl that kills people for no reason or the man who killed a vulnerable girl? This confusion got me feeling like the makers thought of bringing something unseen, unimaginable tale to the table but lost at its core essence. If not the art work is great.
Hanu Man (2024)
Small budget movie but enriched in grace!
Bollywood made 'Adipurish' movie, it was a disaster, the only reason was that the makers didn't make the movie out of devotion or good intent, they wanted to mint money in the name of Rama and Hanuma. But this movie is a gem, the makers are a great inspiration at every aspect, be it in devotion or technical smartness, they are just amazing. Every movie maker enthusiasts must take notes on their vision, approach, production strategy and knitting the story.
I am not denying the negative points of this movie, of course few things were very naive but it was still entertaining. They didn't cross any limit that would make audience feel overwhelmed about anything, they balanced everything well throughout the movie.
Thank you for an amazing derivation of our epics.
Swathi Mutthina Male Haniye (2023)
I didn't wanted to give 10 rating but I gave
Raj B Shetty, hope you are happy for instilling your beautiful ideology or philosophy on life, humans, love into a movie. When a poet or a philosopher makes a movie, it becomes like Swathi Muthina Male Haniye.
There are issues with the film, like it is slow moving at places where it was unnecessary. I like the essence of innocence in the face of Prerana's mother, is she like that naturally or is it acting? I don't know but her character was beautiful.
Women are sensitive, how much ever the world or the new age feminazism screams that we are tough, we are soft like a flower. The character Prerana represented this reality very beautifully, very naturally. I loved it, even though I know this movie doesn't deserve a complete 10 on 10 rating, I still give a 10 for the efforts. To the effort of making a movie in an Era of adrenaline pumping movies. Maybe he knew this film won't find success in the cruel, shrewd market but he still made it, to inspire some people that understands the essence in the movie. Thanks for this one.
Sapta Sagaradaache Ello: Side A (2023)
Poetry in motion
After a very long time a movie made me cry, I thought movies like these stopped being made but thanks to Rakshith for this one. This is not for everyone, one has to be anuragi (emotional) to feel this movie. Not one second was boring for me, I felt the love, pain and passion which were overflowing in the movie. After a long time I felt a movie spoke poetry, that is Sapta Sagaradaache ello. Thanks for your heart Rakshith, it's in the right place.
Speaking of acting, it's top notch, the heroine shines brighter at every frame through her acting. Rakshith also has done great work but I've always loved the movie maker in him more than the actor in him. He does acting well, very well but the heroine took all the stars. A new face that could represent the KFI. Anyways, a really good movie after a very very long time.
Shehzada (2023)
Kartik taking this movie all on him and how!!
Kartik is a shining star in this movie, I am extremely impressed how he has worked his own charm into a Telugu remake movie. First when I knew Ala Vaikuntapuramulo, which is also my favorite movie, is being remade in Bollywood, I was disappointed. Because Bollywood has been proving since years that it cannot be trusted upon for remakes or original movies. But this movie is a exception.
Firstly, I am glad for the improvements done in the movie, in the Telugu movie it didn't settle well with the way they objectified the female protagonist. Her long legs were shown in a lustful manner, for a Allu Arjun movie it surely didn't set well. I cringed everytime I watched it. But it's not the case with Hindi version, they were surprisingly subtle about it and didn't make it look vulgar.
I couldn't imagine someone creating their own charm against a master like Allu Arjun which is worth applauding. Kartik has got my heart this time, expecting more clean entertainment from him. Also his acting is very well in the movie, so Kartik is the star.
Yashoda (2022)
I guess Samantha haters are false reviewing
The movie is good, not excellent but only good because such story is seen in movies already but what deserves 10 star? It's Samantha's acting, her capability, strength and determination. I hope she's proud of herself for such a terrific delivery, she's a really capable actor in Telugu industry, I wish for her growth and good health.
I also saw bad ratings to the movie saying the movie is executed badly and etc. Everything needs a start, this movie could be a great start for more female led action movies in Indian cinema. Stop being highly critical, start appreciating a good movie. Also I suspect Samatha haters to randomly give bad ratings but that won't stop her shine.
Wonder Women (2022)
A film that could be watched by any gender but the essence of movie will be perceived only by women, because, it is made for women
This movie got me in tears, beautiful acting by all the actors, Parvathy is really a good actress, Nithya is the cutie pie she had my heart. This is not about a movie with exciting plot or it doesn't even preach anything, it's just to feel, exactly how the nature is to be felt. Great effort by the actors to make the movie an emotional affair and experience for the viewers. I have nothing critical to say about the movie, neither am I here to be a critic, I'm just here to express my gratitude for making such a movie to the makers and team. Women, watch this one, it's made for you.
Ante Sundharaniki (2022)
One of the best of its kind!
So this movie flopped? Why? This isn't the first movie that despite being good, it flopped, in Kannada love mocktail and dia faced similar issues. I don't know where we audience are going wrong in choosing movies but hereafter I have complete faith in Nani that he chooses good scripts and it'll be worth the time. Shyam Singha Roy was another masterpiece that I got mesmerized by and now this, great message with information about the common female related biological issue, all delivered at perfection. Nani's acting skills and dialogue delivery are next level, he earned a new fan in me.
