Underwater (2020)

Underwater Monsters
30 May 2024
"Underwater," directed by William Eubank and starring Kristen Stewart, is a high-intensity sci-fi horror film that plunges viewers into the terrifying depths of the ocean. The story follows a group of researchers who find themselves trapped seven miles below the ocean's surface after an earthquake devastates their subterranean laboratory. With limited time and resources, they must navigate the dark and dangerous underwater world to reach safety.

Kristen Stewart delivers a compelling performance as Norah Price, a mechanical engineer thrust into a leadership role amidst the chaos. Her portrayal of a strong yet vulnerable character adds depth to the film, making the audience root for her survival. The supporting cast, including Vincent Cassel, Jessica Henwick, and T. J. Miller, also contribute solid performances, creating a believable ensemble facing unimaginable horrors.

At the end of the movie, it looks like this movie is based on a real incident, and they say the drilling company didn't let their survivors give an interview. Which means maybe there is some truth about all this, maybe there are those gigantic monster creatures miles down there in the ocean.

The film's visuals are a standout feature, with the underwater cinematography capturing the claustrophobic and eerie environment perfectly. The murky, dimly lit setting heightens the tension, as the characters are constantly confronted with the unknown lurking just beyond their visibility. The sound design further amplifies the sense of dread, with creaking metal and the constant hum of the deep ocean adding to the oppressive atmosphere.

Overall, "Underwater" is a solid addition to the genre, offering a thrilling ride through the deep sea's dark and mysterious realms.

Visuals are nice but movie feels a bit low quality
29 May 2024
"The Cloverfield Paradox," directed by Julius Onah and released in 2018, is the third installment in the Cloverfield franchise. The film ambitiously expands the universe's lore, offering a blend of science fiction and horror, but unfortunately, it struggles to balance its grand ideas with coherent storytelling.

The plot centers around a group of international astronauts aboard the Cloverfield Station, who are tasked with testing a particle accelerator in an attempt to solve Earth's energy crisis. However, their experiment goes awry, leading to bizarre and deadly consequences that threaten not only their lives but also the fabric of reality itself.

I believe this is real, although we haven't yet properly observed by experiments but theoretically it is possible, so there may be a lot more than we have discovered yet.

Universe is big, so big. There is a lot more to it. The film's strengths lie in its intriguing premise and strong cast, including Gugu Mbatha-Raw, David Oyelowo, and Daniel Brühl. Mbatha-Raw, in particular, delivers a compelling performance, bringing depth to her character's emotional journey. The special effects are impressive, effectively conveying the claustrophobic and perilous environment of the space station.

Despite its shortcomings, "The Cloverfield Paradox" offers some thought-provoking moments and thrilling sequences. It's a bold, albeit flawed, entry in the franchise that might appeal to die-hard fans looking for connections to the Cloverfield universe. For others, the film's lack of cohesion and clarity might detract from its potential impact. Overall, it's an ambitious project that ultimately falls short of its lofty aspirations.

Lost in Space (2018–2021)
10/10
Best Space series ever on Netflix
29 May 2024
"Lost in Space," a Netflix series reboot of the 1965 classic, has captivated audiences with its blend of sci-fi adventure, familial drama, and stunning visual effects. Premiering in 2018, this modern retelling follows the Robinson family as they navigate the treacherous terrains of an alien planet after their spaceship, the Resolute, veers off course.

This series has become one of my most most favourite netflix series ever ever ever. The alien friend take them through a black hole to alpha centauri star system, on a planet. Those aliens also become their friends. That's amazing. I wonder why the hell i didn't come across this series before on netflix, it has three seasons.

The series stands out for its character-driven narrative. At its core is the Robinson family: John (Toby Stephens), the steadfast and protective father; Maureen (Molly Parker), the brilliant and determined mother; and their three children-Judy (Taylor Russell), Penny (Mina Sundwall), and Will (Maxwell Jenkins). Each character brings depth and nuance, making the family's dynamics both relatable and compelling. Their struggles and triumphs resonate on a personal level, grounding the high-stakes sci-fi setting in human emotions and relationships.

Maxwell Jenkins shines as Will Robinson, whose bond with the enigmatic Robot adds a layer of intrigue and heart to the series. The Robot, with its cryptic past and evolving relationship with Will, embodies the show's exploration of trust, loyalty, and identity. Parker Posey's portrayal of the cunning and unpredictable Dr. Smith injects tension and unpredictability, serving as a formidable antagonist whose motives and actions keep viewers on edge.

Visually, "Lost in Space" is a triumph. The expansive alien landscapes, detailed spacecraft interiors, and imaginative creature designs are rendered with impressive detail, creating an immersive viewing experience. The special effects enhance the storytelling, from thrilling action sequences to the serene beauty of extraterrestrial environments.

The series balances episodic adventures with overarching story arcs, maintaining a brisk narrative pace. Each episode presents new challenges and discoveries, while deeper mysteries about the planet, the Robot's origins, and the Robinsons' mission unfold gradually, keeping audiences engaged and invested.

However, some criticisms have emerged regarding occasional pacing issues and predictable plot twists. At times, the series leans on familiar sci-fi tropes, which can feel derivative to seasoned genre fans. Despite these minor drawbacks, "Lost in Space" excels in delivering an entertaining, emotionally resonant, and visually stunning sci-fi drama.

In summary, "Lost in Space" is a successful reimagining that pays homage to its predecessor while carving out its own identity. With strong performances, exceptional visuals, and a heartfelt narrative, it offers a compelling viewing experience for both sci-fi enthusiasts and general audiences.

Black holes and curiosity
25 May 2024
The documentary "Black Holes: The Edge of All We Know" is about the quest to photograph a black hole. The movie follows Dr. Hawking and his fellow physicists on the mission to get the first true image of the black hole named M87 from actual hard data.

Black holes are still something that we don't know much about, and it's the curiosity that makes us feel like we want to know more about black holes and how they work and how they are formed. I think black holes are the most fascinating things in our entire universe. That's truly amazing.

I'd like to go to a trip to a black hole if it was also positive to come back, but that's not the case. So that's something which limits us from knowing more about black holes.

24 May 2024
"Unknown: Killer Robots" is a sci-fi thriller that delves into a dystopian world where artificial intelligence has turned against humanity. The movie follows a group of survivors as they navigate a treacherous landscape filled with autonomous killer robots.

The movie raises important questions about the ethics of AI development and the consequences of playing with fire.

Because humans are humans, humans should have control over Robots and everything that humans make.

UFOs are real, believe it
24 May 2024
"Top Secret UFO Projects Declassified" is a captivating documentary series that delves into the fascinating world of unidentified flying objects (UFOs) and extraterrestrial life. Through a combination of expert interviews, archival footage, and declassified documents, the series sheds light on the most secretive and intriguing UFO projects in history.

Each episode explores a different aspect of UFO research, from the early days of Project Blue Book to the more recent revelations of the Pentagon's Advanced Aerospace Threat Identification Program (AATIP). The series also examines the alleged alien encounters, mysterious sightings, and unexplained phenomena that have sparked public interest and government attention.

I firmly believe in the fact that there are aliens out there, most probably in our own milky way galaxy. And they are far far greater than us in terms of intelligence and technology.

The experts featured in the series are knowledgeable and credible, providing insightful commentary and context to the declassified documents and footage.

"Top Secret UFO Projects Declassified" is a must-watch for anyone fascinated by UFOs, extraterrestrial life, and the secrets that governments have kept hidden from the public eye. The series is an eye-opening exploration of the unknown, and its declassified revelations will leave viewers questioning the truth about our place in the universe.

Watched it because of Parineeti Chopra
24 May 2024
"Chamkila" is a powerful and poignant biographical drama that tells the story of the legendary Punjabi musician Amar Singh Chamkila. The film masterfully captures the highs and lows of Chamkila's life, from his humble beginnings to his rise to fame and his tragic death.

The lead actor shines as Chamkila, bringing depth and nuance to the role. The supporting cast is equally impressive, with standout performances from the actors playing Chamkila's wife and fellow musicians.

The film's music is, of course, a highlight, with Chamkila's iconic songs woven seamlessly into the narrative. The film doesn't shy away from the challenges Chamkila faced, including the struggles of fame and the pressures of his personal life.

What I don't understand is why some people didn't put up with his songs when that was exactly what people demanded. Just why. That's a point to ponder. But he also shouldn't have kept singing those songs after getting death threats. It's a sad story, but killing his wife wasn't necessary as she wouldn't sing any song without him, moreover they had two little kids.

You'll see Diljit Dosanjh and Parineeti Chopra in this movie, it's available on Netflix.

Space exploration is beautiful
24 May 2024
"Return to Space" is an optimistic portrait of SpaceX's mission to send NASA astronauts back to the International Space Station. The film features Elon Musk, founder of SpaceX, and astronauts Bob Behnken and Doug Hurley. The movie chronicles SpaceX's rise from the Falcon 1 to the Crew Dragon Demo-2, launched on May 30, 2020, with Bob Behnken and Doug Hurley aboard.

I've always wanted to go to the moon, to feel how it feels like to be on the moon, and on Mars. The universe is great, it's very huge. People say he's such an insane man who spends billions of dollars on such missions but then it's okay to explore the space and our beautiful universe out there. NASA plans to send a woman on the moon by its Artemis mission, i can't wait for it. That'll be amazing.

Moon mission of a crew
24 May 2024
"The Silent Sea" is a sci-fi thriller that follows a team sent to the moon to retrieve a mysterious sample from an abandoned space station in the midst of a severe water shortage on Earth.

I always wonder when humans are gonna do all those incredible things that we see only in movies and Netflix series. Just when. Living on Mars, building a proper colony on Mars. But there'll be only one big problem, and that is the oxygen. Trapping oxygen in a closed environment, and living on it. It'd be difficult.

I want to see such great explorations in my lifetime. Humans have evolved a lot, humans have made progress in every field on earth. The universe is great, we must explore it to know more and more.

Once in a decade masterpiece
13 May 2024
"My Name is Khan" will leave you breathless and introspective. Shah Rukh Khan's phenomenal performance as Rizwan Khan, a man with Asperger's syndrome. He brings a depth and vulnerability to the character that is both heart-wrenching and inspiring.

Film's cinematography is capturing the vibrant beauty of India and America's diverse landscapes. The music, composed by Shankar-Ehsaan-Loy, is equally impressive, with songs that are both catchy and poignant.

What truly sets "My Name is Khan" apart is its thoughtful and sensitive approach to tackling complex issues like Islamophobia and racism. The film's message of love and acceptance is powerful

All of the songs are good but my favourite one is "Noore Khuda". And i can't get tired listening to it until i die. You should watch it if you haven't already.

A Kolkata love story
13 May 2024
"Meri Pyaari Bindu" is a romantic movie that'll leave you beaming with delight. It's a charming tale of Abhimanyu and Bindu, two childhood friends who grow up to discover their love for each other.

Ayushmann Khurrana and Parineeti Chopra are on screen. The supporting cast adds to the film's humor and warmth, making you feel like you're part of their quirky little life.

The story is witty and relatable, dialogues are both clever and hilarious. The story flows smoothly, Abhimanyu likes Bindu, but hesitates to express his feelings for her. My favourite song from the movie is "Maana Ke Hum Yaar Nahin" and "Ye Jawaani Teri".

I guess the movie has been shot in Kolkata, and the streets there look very old and historical, which adds a feeling of nostalgia of old time to the scenes.

Overall, "Meri Pyaari Bindu" is a great movie if you're looking for a romantic comedy. But at the end Abhimanyu doesn't get to marry Bindu which made me a little bit upset about the story, there should have been a happy ending of them both, but that's the case. Anyway, do watch it.

Double XL (2022)
8/10
Double XL are also beautiful
13 May 2024
This film tackles a sensitive topic like body shaming.

The story follows two plus-size women, Rajshree Trivedi (Huma Qureshi) from Meerut and Saira Khanna (Sonakshi Sinha) from New Delhi, as they navigate society's beauty standards. Rajshree wants to become a sports presenter, but her mother doesn't approve. She has to face several rejections due to her extra large size, while Saira gets snubbed for the same reason in the fashion industry. These two double XL ladies catch up and fly off to London to achieve their dreams. There they are accompanied by two good men, Zorawar (Zaheer Iqbal) and Sreekanth (Mahat Raghavendra), who don't have any problem with their sizes.

Society doesn't just body shame fat people, but it also body shames skinny people. People don't understand the fact that every human being is made different, even our fingerprints of one finger don't match with the other finger's.

So we have to understand and accept the fact that there is nothing in our control, it's all about nature, nature's diversity, nature's beauty, and that's made by God. So it is what it is, we can't do anything about it.

This movie is currently available on Netflix.

Old story from pre-partition era
13 May 2024
"Heeramandi" is a series that is set in pre-independence India and follows the lives of courtesans. The series is directed by Sanjay Leela Bhansali, who is known for his grand and opulent style. The whole series has beautiful costumes and intricate sets. By the way this prostitution culture isn't respected by Muslims in Pakistan. In fact, heeramandi is a word that's used for abusing others. Anyway this series has 8 episodes each episode of around one hour long.

Its cast, includes Manisha Koirala, Aditi Rao Hydari, and Sonakshi Sinha. At times, it feels like a soap opera at times, with over-the-top dramatic moments and too much focus on romantic relationships of prostitutes with the rich people of that time.

This series is currently streaming on Netflix.

30 April 2024
"Jab Tak Hai Jaan" is a poignant and mesmerizing romantic drama that explores the complexities of love, loss, and redemption. Directed by Yash Chopra, this film is a swan song that showcases his mastery of storytelling and emotional depth.

The movie follows the journey of Samar Anand (Shah Rukh Khan), a charming and brooding musician who falls deeply in love with Meera (Katrina Kaif), a beautiful and vibrant woman. Their whirlwind romance is cut short by a tragic accident, leaving Samar heartbroken and searching for solace.

Exposing scammers, fraudsters, demons
29 April 2024
Bad Boy Billionaires: India

About a rich businessman who wanted to normalize the use of alcohol drinks in India, which he failed after some time when the government came into this. Then he makes an airline company by the name of kingfisher, he fails in the airline business but he takes millions of Dollars of loan from public banks of India and over the next years he became bankrupt, he didn't even pay salaries to employees of the airline. After all, he sits in England and does not care about what wrong he did. I think if any person who is corrupt, has back support from the government, he can do anything he wants to, and survive.

Nirav Modi who did the diamond business, took a letter of undertaking from the Punjab National Bank and took loans from them without paying them back and he got about 2 billion dollars. He also lives in London, and is liable to pay all that money.

It is said, power tends to corrupt, and absolute power corrupts absolutely.

Another man made his company Sahara Group and made people invest their money as savings in his fraud and he did this scam with millions of people. Actually he did the scam the legal way, also he was charged for money laundering.

I don't know why a human being drops to such a level of being a demon, not caring about other innocent people. Such people just lose the characteristic of being called a human, they shouldn't be called human. Shame shame on such people.

Killer Soup (2024– )
5/10
Story is Stupid, and so is that soup
9 April 2024
Killer Soup

A woman named Swathi has problems with her husband, and has fights with him on a daily basis and she wants to open a restaurant. But she also has an affair with her husband's carbon copy of Umesh and she wants to live her life with him. One day she and her friend that she has an affair with, kills her husband Prabhu and buried his body and Umesh pretends to be Prabhu.

Time goes by, and police and other people don't recognise him, but at the end of the series, everything just opens up and the truth comes to light.

There is another language used in this series, at some points, i think that's the Kannada language. And that's maybe because this series was shot in Karnataka and the story has to do with that area.

Manoj Bajpayee is doing the role of Prabhu and Umesh both, because they are both identical.

Go watch it, it's available on Netflix.

Unsolved Mysteries of Earth
9 April 2024
Files Of The Unexplained

This series shows some of the great mysteries in history, like UFOs, Myrtles Plantation where it's believed that those plants and trees and the house there, are haunted and some astray spirits are haunting that place.

I believe that maybe there Are some intelligent life in this universe other than us. Maybe, just maybe. Because we can't see them because light takes a lot of time to travel to such farthest distances like hundreds and thousands of years minimum, so maybe there are some intelligent aliens out there and they want to see us to know how are we and what are we, how do we look, how do we do anything.

Anyway, this series is about that, usually all series which are like a documentary are great, the information is concise and feels complete and comprehensive and the episodes are more or less not more than a half an hour long.

This series is available on Netflix and has 8 episodes in total. Go watch it if you like mysteries and UFO kinda stuff.

Abduction of a girl from Pakistan to India
5 April 2024
The Wedding Guest

This movie is about a guy who is working for an Indian named Deepesh who lives in the UK, and kidnaps a girl from Pakistan to take her to India. But that Indian man doesn't wanna meet that girl now because police from Pakistan are looking for that girl and kidnapper. So he asks the kidnapper to take the girl back to Pakistan. Deepesh got killed while having a fight with the kidnapper.

The scenes in the beginning of the movie are shot in Pakistan, I liked, that guy Dev Patel, he's British, so he must have gotten a Pakistani visa, but other shots which involve Radhika Apte and Jim Sarbh are shot in India, because obviously they wouldn't have Pakistani visa.

I think Bollywood producers should shot the scenes related to Pakistan in Pakistan, as much as possible. So to show the actual scenes of Pakistan, not making fake Pakistani areas and people as it's usually done in Bollywood movies.

While being underground using different passports and different identities and hiding in different cities, they went to Jaipur and then to Goa. By the time, they really got intimate with each other. But one night, while Jay was sleeping, the kidnapper guy, Samira leaves him sleeping and goes out on the scooty by herself and goes very far, and calls him in the morning I'm sorry. It felt like an abrupt ending, but okay. It didn't have a lot of action and drama, it's just a simple movie.

One more thing i noticed, that Radhika Apte wasn't hiding her chest and his lower back in some shots, and that's a very bold thing to do. It doesn't happen usually.

I always wonder how cool it always would be to make such movies, you know, the president, all of that protocol and GMC cars, and other cars like suburban. It would be amazing to be a part of such movies, the president having the codename of phoenix.

Previously, i have also watched the series "Salvation", which also has a lot of drama and tension while saving earth from being hit by an asteroid.

Season 2: Tom's wife dies in a car accident, it becomes hard for Tom to get over it. FBI agent Forstel also dies in a blast. Seth has an affair with Emily, and a new person Lyor has got a job in White House.

Tom Kirkman has started having some tension with former president Moss in one way or another. This series is long by the way, each episode of 45 minutes. So it's really slow paced.

I didn't like that homosexuality thing in the third season, Tom Kirkman also was elected a second time as the prime minister. By the way, i feel like the ending was very abrupt.
