Dabbe: Zehr-i Cin (2014)
Comedy galore
This movie is really something. There were so many random scenes where I questioned the direction and production.
There is a scene for example when Dilek and Harun are entering a house, and there's a pack of stray dogs chasing a cow. Seems like a blooper and even the Dilek actress seems confused like is this part of the script?
The only other Dabbe I have seen is the first instalment and that was definitely scarier.
Overall, really funny movie, with some gruesome scenes if you are into bloodshed and gore. The special effects/ graphics are Mashallah, and the acting too is brilliant (please note the sarcasm).
Bombay Begums (2021)
Intriguing storyline, good character development
Please ignore the poor ratings - since the average angry Indian male viewers have a tendency to rate any show that could be considered liberal, provocative, sexy or open minded with a 1/10. So far this show has really dealt with core issues women face not just on an institutional level, but a personal, social and sexual level. Metropolitan life in Bombay has gotten people to be more in-touch with these features, and this show beautifully depicts that. The poor ratings are just from a bunch of women hating, racists, homophobic ultra-jingoists who keep trying to control the narrative as per their narrow minded ways.
The Mask: When Pigs Ruled the Earth (1997)
Hilarious episode
Highlight of the episode was towards the end when the Mask turns into a pig witch to scare the villains away.
Bhaag Beanie Bhaag (2020)
Entertaining one-time watch
People here are normally giving it a worse review because of Swara's vocal left-wing views, and because a majority of Indians are right leaning conservatives. Show is otherwise a good laugh, displaying some awkward toxic desi family problems in a hilarious way. The father had been built is an exceptionally funny character. Good satire comedy.
The Haunting of Bly Manor (2020)
Spooky in the first half, emotional in the second half
The movie builds the characters very well, and also adds inception like layers that keep viewers intrigued for more. There is a sense of curiosity and creepiness during the first 3-4 episodes when you see shadow figures lurking in the backdrop and the shroud around the entire environment of the manor. However, once the backstory and the history of the manor is revealed in the subsequent episodes, the show is very emotional and quite heart-breaking. Take your tissues out for the finale. The show rightly is about love and loneliness, adding a sense of realness to the storyline.
Four More Shots Please! (2019)
Raw, spunky portrayal of young urban life
Ignore the anti-feminist comments, they're just a bunch of hurt egos. The cast did a commendable job on portraying urban life which may be relatable to select "high societies", but relevant nonetheless. Issues like sexuality, sexual harassment, gender bases discrimination, toxic relationships, divorce, pre-marital pregnancies, body issues and other taboo topics are jumped into here.
Backdrop music was a bit pretentious and of place but otherwise it's a fun show to watch.
The Umbrella Academy (2019)
Fun, a bit predictable, addictive, extremely unlikeable protagonists
Great show with impressive visual effects. A little daring and edgy on some fronts.
Although after the 5th episode it did get a little predictable as to how the ending was going to shape out (unless you have peanuts for brains).
Also, none of the characters were likeable or who you could root for, except for the chimp and the android. But that has nothing to do with how addictive binge watching it can get.
You (2018)
An insight into the head of an obsessive stalker
The premise of the show gives viewers a glimpse of what goes on inside the head of a 'stalker' and alot of people can possibly relate to the victim (and perhaps even the stalker).
Good storytelling with unexpected plot twists (which sometimes can come across as a bit overboard and unrealistic).
The cast is pretty good and both the lead actors do a decent job in gaining empathy from the audience. Shay Mitchell as a supporting actress stood out.
After Total Divas (2013)
Quick and fun recap
Renee Young proves why she is one of the best broadcasters/ commentators in the sports-entertainment industry with her witty repartee and lax personality.
Former Divas' Champion, Alicia Fox is featured as her cute and quirky co-presenter. You sometimes see her channeling her 'crazy-woman' gimmick that she portrays on Monday Night Raw which is quite funny.
Summer Rae replaced Fox in 2015 (after Fox joined the Total Divas Cast) and she and Young shared a very vibrant dynamic on screen.
The Newsroom (2012)
Good portrayal of a media house, with praise-worthy performances
Will and Mackenzie share a solid chemistry on screen which you can feel growing on you from the first episode itself. The Newsroom shows a somewhat exact portrayal of how media houses function today, with razor sharp journalists who need to be on their game all the time. This show has been compared to the counter part of Suits, but some can say that The Newsroom is even better than it. Olivia Munn and Jeff Daniels captivate us with their amazing performances, and they fit in the role just so well. If you were to find an issue with the show, it's only that some of the scenes can get really long and tedious and they can go off track sometimes with the story leading nowhere. However it's not a big deal, as this show is a must watch, especially for those people who are politically aware.
Game of Thrones (2011)
This show has everything!
This show has almost every possible element to attract fans from all ages. A political drama in a mythical backdrop this show is so captivating and keeps you on your toes the entire time and one keeps asking for more. One won't even realize 50 minutes can get over so fast! The show doesn't necessarily divert from the book, but when it does, one can find it to be a pleasant surprise. Performances. Brilliant. Storyline. Brilliant. The supernatural element is an interesting mix, and surprisingly doesn't disappoint the viewers. Though the cast is enormous and its easy for a fan to forget some characters and minor story lines easily.. a true fan will find that the little things matter and add onto the spice. The show doesn't hold back in any form of nudity (male or female) neither on gruesome and torturous scenes. All I can say is, if you've not watched the show, give it one episode. It's enough to capture your minds and hearts.
