Lupin (2021)
Tried very hard to enjoy it !!!
It's one of those serials that have the potential to have been amazing, thrilling and engrossing. As it so happens, it falls flat with extremely amateurish acting. Our hero is a master hacker, excellent at disguise and can enter and leave the prison system as if entering a bar for a drink. I have yet to view something so lame.
La casa de papel (2017)
Seriously overhyped series
Where do I begin? Started watching mainly due to the very positive reviews and high scores given to this serial.
My opinion -
The basic heist uses a storyline used before many times, as early as 30 years ago, where the hostages would be made to dress up as the criminals to evade arrest.
The acting was amateurish overacting, at best. A high school could probably put up a much more professional production.
There was zero suspense. It fails to grip. I'm comparing this to a serial like 24, which I was unable to switch off as it had me on the edge of my seat !!!
There are far too many intermingled story lines that waste a great deal of time.
Watching this is almost akin to watching grass grow !!!
I honestly cannot understand all the high scores given to this.
In short, the ongoing pandemic situation around the world has us homebound with nothing to do. You probably can't do much worse than this.
Jexi (2019)
Awful as in horrendous !!!
It sounded like a film worth watching. But the unnecessary use of profanity in every other sentence made this movie painful to watch.
I lasted 20 minutes ... 20 minutes of my life I will never get back.
The movie is beyond terrible. Don't waste your time on it.
One Less God (2017)
Could not hack it
Right off the bat, I was disillusioned with this movie. The lack of professionalism is stark and in your face.
- The shot inside the boat shows instruments solely used in aircraft - ADF, DME, etc. Clearly no intelligence exercised by the producer/director.
- Non native speakers delivered Hindi dialogue. Strange that the producers could not find appropriate actors for it. It was amusing though.
I must say that I had no desire to proceed after the first 10 mins.
China Salesman (2017)
Go watch grass grow instead of this !!!
Where do I start? Seagal has been going downhill for over 20 years now and getting worse by the day ...
And to top it, he's teamed up with an ear biting maniac who could not act to save his life ...
Probably one of the worst movies I have ever watched ... and I regret I will never get back the 23 1/2 minutes I spent giving this drivel a chance ...

Operation Dunkirk (2017)
Rides piggyback on a blockbuster
Quite frankly, I thought I was going to see "Dunkirk", the new blockbuster ...
As it so happens, it turned out to be a complete waste of an hour and a half ... time that I will never get back.
The CGI is worse than 95% of movies I've seen over the years ... and that's the best part of this movie.
Do yourself a favour ... go watch grass grow ... or paint dry.
