Anweshippin Kandethum (2024)
Two crime stories in one movie - Disappointed
Based on IMDB rating, expected good crime thriller with lot of twists but it come out as 2 CRIME PATROL episodes in one movie.
First part of the movie starts with background of suspended police officer in one case, how some influential groups obstruct investigation and how hero will overcome them and resolve the case with tragic end. That put their police jobs suspended indefinitely.
Second part of the movie starts with new crime investigation that not resolved for 6-7 years by many agencies. Same suspended group asked investigate the case secretly. Here too, we see how some influential groups obstruct investigation and how hero will overcome them and resolve the case with tragic end here too. Whole investigation goes very slow and bore at sometimes.
Only saving grace for this movie was Tovino's performance.
What disappointed me, expected to bring some link between 2 cases and make it as one big investigation that was missed in the first case. Something like IRATTA movie but there's no link at all. Felt like watching TV series.
Annapoorani: The Goddess of Food (2023)
Crap Movie - Just Avoid it
Too much of minority appeasement, never expected this type of crap movie from Tamil film industry. Nayantara's worst movie till date and she also lost respect.
Any film story should be authentic in narration and execution. In final competition, lead role who's Brahmin make namaaz to make biryani and believes it make with class taste. A Brahmins girl who's Chef by profession making non veg dishes are okay but eating to taste them for career look too cheap in taste. Famous chef takes food orders from high class society but they don't make decent dishes, it shown atleast multiple times. Such crappy scenes are many in this movie
Take a break, just avoid this movie. My sincere suggestion to movie lovers.
The Freelancer (2023)
Good watch but many liberties taken
Started very well and keep you edge of the seat till end, in overall it's good web series to watch if you're fan of thriller, spy type entertainments
All actors performance's are good and did justice to their characters, Writing department did good job and made sure not have any dull moments in 7 episodes including lead roles flashback.
Story wise shown many real facts about the systems working and also how religion believes take to the extremes. But all if them balanced really well.
All good but felt took too many liberties to get operation successful. To name few, entering into other countries by road, clearing way to reach destination, no public in the streets, doppelgängers, IPL type of forces
Throughout series, get chance to see no hauling/shouting when shot with gun with silencer, that's how it works?
Except such many liberties, it's okay to watch in 2-3 sittings.
Vyooham (2023)
Karma hits back
Vyooham starts well with accident scene and it happens due to diversion from 3-4 groups who are at accident location. Investigation reveals slowly everyone role and it well connected in the end and it also shows how Karma will not leave for good and bad deeds.
Few drawbacks, too many threads and flashbacks looked over sometimes, rather it would've been organic sticked to 3 threads. Lead actor good but very average in emotion & anger scenes. Most of the other actors acted well within their scope except one who played IAS. Some characters not ended well.
Definitely it's worth watching except few drags and drawbacks sometimes.
HIT: The 2nd Case (2022)
Good start but expected ending
Movie starts well but ending revealing serial killer was expected one and not surprised.
Main villain as an actor got good recognition in last 2-3 years. He was shown less than 10minutes screen time till climax portions so obviously movie lover and follower knows more to come from him in the movie.
Next thing, it was not convincing that killer give newspaper ad same day for both his father obituary and his business ad. Any smart killer will not do that.
Acting wise all did great job, movie keeps interesting till full first half and sometime for second half. Definitely one time watch if you like crime/thriller zone.
She (2020)
Sex always not sells
Worst series in recent time, no need to have so many sec scenes. Main lead character literally sleeps with most of the characters she encounters. No need to show female character so low. Ending was bad too. Nothing to talk about story, script, narration and direction departments.
Sammathame (2022)
Shown 2000s mindset
Life partner to be pious, not have before marriage affairs, less social life, dress traditionally and not outspoken are few such things used to be expectations from educated and middle class boys in 2000s. This story connects to them better and may take them to old memories.
Current generation went much ahead and matured. Rural areas may still have such mindset but not in towns/cities. In overall, movie not really connects well with target audience.
Acting wise just okay by lead. After point, repeatedly shown similar scenes, makes boring. Script and narration is weak.
Vaashi (2022)
Could have been better
It's good parallel story and could have been more interesting if they added few conflicts in the narration. Goes very plain and predictable throughout except judgement in the ending.
Acting wise, almost every one acted well and justified.
Maa Neella Tank (2022)
Avoid it
Worst in all departments. Sushanth need training on acting, not able to perform simple scenes. Story and narration is weak and proceedings makes too boring.
Gangubai Kathiawadi (2022)
Not as expected
It's dark theme, sort of period and biopic movie, need natural setup to get into the movie. But SLB went with his coloring all over the movie that makes you feel like watching movie but not the characters. Saving grace is Alia and Vijay Raaz, done exceptionally well.
Remaining everything looks artificial and over dramatic.
Virata Parvam (2022)
Not commercial nor art movie
Had a good expectations in this movie but found to be very boring movie in the end and feels like watching documentary sometimes. Too many background red songs that kills interest in the movie.
Killing lead character can be better with more interesting scenes that arise the situation. Ideally it should more emotional movie but failed in that front too.
Avoid it.
Jayamma Panchayathi (2022)
Excellent and worth watching
If you grown in villages and towns in 1990s-2000s, you'll see every character in the movie take you into your past and makes it you know them. Movie purely made with no cinema coloring.
Everyone acted so well and naturally that you see character played by them and not actor including Suma.
You'll enjoy movie every bit if go with average expectations. Watch it.
Recce (2022)
Non-sensical and makes worst in the end
It's adult story with no proper grip in the narration. All actors performed to best of their scope, no complaints.
It was not justified 30s housewife attracted to old man instead of his son. Husband should have involved in killing but not. In the end, worst comes where son gets chance too.
Avoid it and save your time.
Gaalivaana (2022)
Made it well with mediocre actors
It's adopted from UK TV series, overall keeps it engaging throughout last episode and justifies every character i in the end. Most of the acting looks okay and mediocre. Radhika's dubbing was horrible, it's sounds like 2000s TV serial dubbing.
***Spoiler here*****
Why father order DNA report for intended marriage couple. It was not known what made him to take that decision except this all loops covered well.
Jana Gana Mana (2022)
Worth watching but dragged a bit
It's worth watching movie with 4 threads of different people and ambitions get intersected and have different fate and results.
Court scenes are good to watch and Prithviraj acted well.
Few minuses....
Lengthy movie
Shown saffron party mostly but almost political parties works in same way. Not sure director intentions to show only saffron in dark.
Climax looks like done then forced Prithviraj flashback comes into it....made wow to enough now.
One dialogue in court room says if media/police give judgement and punishments then why need judiciary. Even though it sounds apt but not shown downside of judiciary system which usually takes 2-3 decades to give judgements in simplest and straightforward cases in India instead of giving judgements in paced manner.
Except few like above, movie is worth watching, go for it.
Kesari (2019)
Good movie, shown reality
Good movie, most of the star cast performed well in given roles. Parimeeti Chopra scenes were forced into movie. It's history and real story, makers may taken few cinematic liberties which are acceptable.
Few Muslims gave negative reviews and ratings but it's the real fact about Afghans and present modern world too, they're as cruel as 100 years back and uncivilized. Again Afghans not represent all Muslims. Should not see this movie just from religion angle.
Gaali Sampath (2021)
Avoid if you can
First half of the movie is boring and makes you patient and second half test your patience. Acting was all done good job but story and narration is very bad and climax is horrible.
Feeling pity for talented Sri Vishnu who did son's role that has no importance or heroic character as per script.
Lucifer (2019)
Predictable Narration
No surprise elements and predictable narration throughout the movie from the beginning. All actors acted well within given scope and Mohan Lal rocks as usual. Watch this movie only if you have no better other choice.
Under Suspicion: Uncovering the Wesphael Case (2021)
Dragged - No suspense elements
After first episode, it looks like dragged and ending was not convincing. Based on individual interviews and opinions, end was predictable that politician will come out clear.
MMOF (2021)
Shocked
Shock to see JD was part of this movie, short films narration, script and performances will be much much better than this movie. Please avoid this movie for your own good and use same time for something else in your life.
Bombay Begums (2021)
Characterless all over
Most of the characters shown in low light and character less, not real depiction of Indian society.
Pressure Cooker (2020)
Routine story
Heroine loves unemployed or no future goals hero and her parents arrange marriage with rich guy or NRI or well settled employee but in the end they prove hero is correct choice, just to have happy ending. This pattern followed since 2 decades, in this movie too, shown similar pattern to prove hero working in India is good and NRIs in the other shade which is not correct in majority cases.
If you like routine stories with happy ending, you can watch this movie else you ignore it easily.
Hushaaru (2018)
Beer, Love, Kissings and Career
Hushaaru is an average movie, tried to make modern version of Happy Days with adult content. This movie had lot of emotions but magic of connecting to it failed miserably.
Lot of illogical scenes were in the movie, example, girl wants to settle in abroad for good life but boy insists he's not interested as he don't want to miss his childhood friends. Most of 30 plus people understand after some stage, everyone will be busy in their own life. But it doesn't mean there'll be breakup with friends. Another one, selling beers with no license, an educated person know some basic rules/law. Like this, there many illogical scenes.
Most of the film filled with beers and smooches, makers test your patience to watch repeatedly same thing. Comedy track is hilarious and overall concept/message that want pass is good.
Another major drawback, acting skills of most of the cast including side characters are average or below, maybe that made no connections to the emotions in the movie.
Watch it only if you want to kill sometime or have no other movie options else just pass away from it.
Ninnu Thalachi (2019)
Worst and outdated movie
Looks like this movie's PR team gave 9 plus rating. Movie does not connect with audience with very first minute. Lead pair acting is mediocre, story is outdated and narration is weak. Easily one can ignore this movie to save their precious time.
Kuldip Patwal: I Didn't Do It! (2017)
Good movie with good story but....
It's good movie, highlighted how govt intended & unintended wrong decisions impact common public in India, story able to justify everything till the end.
Lead actors done their job good but main problem with this movie is poor production values(web series are better), weak screenplay and absurd background music (it's almost zero).
Usually movie like this have many highlighted and goose bump scenes, fortunately this movie too had similar scenes but taking was very pale and failed to leave impression of those scenes.
