Khufiya (2023)
8/10
FULL-KHUFIYA-PANTI
5 October 2023
"Khufiya" is an exceptional Indian espionage political thriller that I had the pleasure of watching recently. The intricacies of the plot become more captivating with each unexpected twist, and the layers of the story add depth to the narrative. I wholeheartedly recommend this film for anyone seeking an outstanding espionage thriller from India, as it's a rare and remarkable addition to the genre that should not be missed.

Additionally, the performances of the cast and the well-executed direction enhance the overall experience, making "Khufiya" a must-watch for enthusiasts of suspenseful cinema.

A Feel Good Film
27 August 2023
A Man Named Otto (2022) is a feel good movie brilliantly acted by Tom Hanks. It's an America remake of Sweden film "A Man Called Ove" which is based upon the name with the same name.

The story follows a lonely 60 yrs old man tries to end his life after his wife's death. However, he frequently get disturbed by his new neighbours before he could finally commit suicide.

The original film was in my watchlist for a while but I never got to opportunity to watch it. However, I didn't realise this film was the remake for it.

Performance were good, story was already and overall nice film to watch if you're feeling a little low.

A Must Watch.

Consciousness only exists in fiction(art) but not in reality. For most part it's true.
20 August 2023
Warning: Spoilers
I believe, like most of us, Woody Allen has also been a great admirer of famous Russian novelist Fyodor Dostoevsky. There's an obvious strong resemble from Crime And Punishment (Book) where Dostoevsky talked about moral, self-consciousness, ethics, justice and religion.

Woody Allen did his own bit here. He showcase us two different plot lines which intertwines at the end where one charecter Judah commits a crime and went against his moral values and haunted by the guilt of it and at the another plot story Cliff who is in search for his own personal identity stayed truth to his ethic and an additional subplot of the Rabbi who stayed at the center of it Judah (Evil) and Cliff (Good)

I think the film deals with some serious dark issues with is equally balanced by the humor. The film will surely gonna make you think about the moral codes and ethics and most importantly, how these code of honor can easily be bypassed "in reality".

The film goes through guilt and moral conflict which the charecter goes through from "oh no, I can't do such thing" to "well, maybe I can't if I could justify my actions?"

Manhattan (1979)
9/10
People in Manhattan are constantly creating real, unnecessary neurotic problems
12 August 2023
So I rewatch this film after 5 years since I last watched. I think I really understood this film a little better now I connect with the film in a better way possible.

"People in Manhattan are constantly creating real, unnecessary neurotic problems..."

WHAT I UNDERSTOOD: Woody Allen tries to tell that we(human) creates soooo many unnecessary problems and welcome them into our life and at the end we realised what truly remarkable thing we once had which we had taken for granted - or simply wasn't paying enough attention to it. (?) Film starts with an unusual monologue and establishes a perfect setting. I loved the end, Woody wanted to give us an optimistic ending and he did.

Spider-Man 2 (2004)
10/10
I watched this film as an adult damn this film so depressing and uplifting
8 April 2023
To whoever is reading this message: Stop everything and watch this film. It's so depressing and relatable that you won't believe it. I'm literally telling you that if you watched this film in your childhood, you need to watch it again now as an adult to understand how different and sad the story is. It's not a typical superhero film with obvious references, but rather it shows the character's struggles, problems, and decisions. I'm telling you that you'll relate to it so much that you'll feel like it's your own life story. Watch this film before any other shows or films.

This film reminds us that the lives of normal people are no less than those of superheroes, and the struggles of normal people are often more challenging than those of superheroes. Perhaps that's why Spider-Man is our favorite superhero today.

Sundown (I) (2021)
7/10
The story begins with a wealthy family on a vacation that was unexpectedly cut off by a family emergency.
19 June 2022
Warning: Spoilers
*Spoiler Below*

The central figure throughout the film was Neil Bennett who seemed aloof throughout the film. The apathetic character, at first, I thought is dealing with money-cant-buy-happiness boredom in his life but as the story progresses I realised, the character is infact, suffering from Existential Nihilism and simply doesn't care about his action and the people around him. He deattached himself from everyone without having to explain anything to anyone.

The opening shot giveaways the entire plot to me. The film mentioned his cancer ONLY to explain the origin fot his actions. The pig 🐖 hallucinations can also tells about his declining heath at different points in the film.

It's mostly a silent film with little dialogues and it's heavily rely on character and his unspoken action throughout the film. Tim Roth done well in his role.

It could have been a Short Film.

Despite having an amazing plot twist it still remain an average film. 6/10 is the best it could deserve.

27 December 2018
Stalking, Love at first sight, Obsession, etc etc... These things aren't really my think. But I can promise you're like me ... You gonna love this as much as I did. Look it as a Psychopath series. You'll be fine..

About Infinity War

No, I'm not giving you any spoilers in this post I honor the moral code. ❤

First of all, "Avengers Infinity War" is a misleading title. Even though there were Avengers in it, it's still a Titan film; Thanos's film. The antagonist with gentleman qualities who shall not disappoint you. Much like fans, like us, like me, Thanos too was waiting for this moment, which in his own words, "Dread it. Run from it. Destiny still arrives." AND THAT'S EXACTLY WHAT HAPPENED. The war was worth waiting for. Out of Avengers, Thor was the centre of attraction and my personal favourite in the film. (Jabse ye Ragnarok se aaya hai bada comedy ho gya hai.) Thor gave super-humor positive vibes though the tense moments. Truly a God. Other than him, Iron Man's new armour with nano-tech was too much animated but nevertheless quite mind-blowing. ❤ The film mainly focus on emotional element and to be frank it's definitely heartbreaking. Russo brother's blend of humor, action, emotion, in their storytelling was beyond my imagination. It was 'so-damn-perfect.' They earned it.

PS: There's an end credit. Only for those who wait.

"Valar Morghulis." -Thanos

Yeh Meri Family (2018– )
10/10
TVF & Chill <3
6 September 2018
This is TVF's best production since Pitchers. Each episode was delicately wrapped with rich emotions, fun and family values. Probably, this show will hit you hit in the feels. Witness the life of the late 90s.

Classic Indian Spy Film
10 August 2018
The Hero is an Indian reincarnation of James Bond with none other than Sunny Deol. The reason I scored it a perfect ten is become it was my the first ever Spy Film. I remember watching this film when it was released in theaters. I was jusy 7 at that time. At that age, I didn't knew about Bond, Indo-Pak rivalry, Covert Spies or any other related thing and I just enjoy the movie experience.

Ek Ruka Hua Faisla (1986 TV Movie)
9/10
Facts can be misleading because there's a fault in reality.
8 July 2018
This film did justice to its adapted film 12 Angry Men. Infact, they even took the dialogues from the original film, by not making any changes I felt more relatable towards its original source. Pankaj Kapoor and Annu Kapoor's performance was truly remarkable. For those who don't watch English film due to language barrier I hope you enjoy this. Jo log English filmy bhaasha ke taur per nahi dekhte vo ye film jarur dekhe. Kyonki ye bharat ki aasadharan filmy mese ek hai.
