Hunterrr (2015)
Very underrated film!
Amazing story, direction and music.
Can't believe I missed this when it released in 2015...such good content was rare before OTT came.
Harshavardhan Kulkarni's direction strikes a balance between humor and heart, creating a captivating narrative. The film's music adds depth to the story, while addressing important themes of consent and open-mindedness in modern relationships.
"Hunterrr" is a bold Hindi film that offers a refreshing take on relationships and sexuality. Gulshan Devaiah's exceptional performance as Mandar Ponkshe brings depth and charm to the character.
Beyond its unconventional theme, "Hunterrr" conveys a deeper message about human desires, relationships, and the complexities of love. It challenges societal norms and encourages a dialogue about consent and open-mindedness in modern relationships.
Agnes (2021)
Open to interpretation, not a conventional horror/ thriller.Disappointed
Only half of the movie is conventional horror, Not only that, the fact that these scenes focus on the friend instead of the possessed individual of the film's title, who disappears with no resolution about her possessed state, shows a weird lack of interest in the main character, rendering a lot of it pointless.
Sleepless in Seattle (1993)
"oldie but goody"
3 December 2017
Writing a review for a movie which was released even before I was born is really funny.
Too bad I hadn't seen it until today... Rom-com is a genre which I rarely engage in
I think the last time I saw a Rom-com was "No String Attached" (2011)
What can I say I really liked this film.It is a simple sweet story. Sam(Tom Hanks), has lost his wife and lives with his 8 yr old son and has recently moved to Seattle, WA. Even after a year and a half he still finds himself missing his wife and pining for love. Then one incident happens which changes everything.
Surely one of the best Romantic movies I have seen so far, having usually seen the Tom Hanks in his Dan Brown films, it was weird for me watching him so young. Meg Ryan plays her part to perfection.
The film is studded with amazing singles from the 80's. I loved the "Make someone happy" by Jimmy Durante.
Go watch it you won't regret it!
Taxi Driver (1976)
Bland Storytelling
This is my first review, and I think it is funny that I am starting reviewing with a 1976 movie..... This movie was on my watch-list since long and I was surely not going to miss this top rated classic in the Psychological Thriller- Genre.
This movie has top stars at the helm: Martin Scorsese, Robert De Niro and Cybill Shepherd and an IMDb rating of 8.3 so I didn't think that the film would disappoint.Cybill Shepherd is breathtakingly gorgeous.
As the this 113 minute film takes a leisurely pace. You get to see how the mind of the protagonist Travis Bickle works...
He is a USA-Marines veteran and has experience in the Vietnam War. He is not content with his monotonous life.He drives his cab in New York for 12 hours every night.
He encounters an alluring young woman at a local Political Office and asks her out. She is charmed by his manner and she agrees....they go out and the date goes well.
After some days he then takes her to a local movie theater. Except the movies are Swedish Pornography.She gets disturbed by the graphic content and leaves, Travis Bickle with his limited social skill gets puzzled by her behavior.She stops seeing him.
On one of his drives through the city Travis encounters a sex worker named "Iris" attempting to flee from her pimp.
For most of this 113 minute movie the scene revolves around Travis, his misanthropic nature, his unstable state of mind and his slow uneventful life.
As the movie crawls to the final 20 minutes viewers are already worn away by the slow storytelling and the character of Travis Bickle.
The final 20 minutes are most of the movie.If you watched the first and the last 20 minutes of the movie(you have seen most of the relevant scenes of the movie) Travis buys a battery of guns to " clean the scum of the city", He attempts to assassinate the President. His attempt is foiled by the Secret Service and he flees.
One can not develop any kind of feeling for this negative anti- social character.( I have seen many movies and shows having negative characters in the lead) but this character is not one with which one develops any remote likability.
The climax is packed with action as Travis attempts to take out the "scum of the city" and rescue Iris.After gunning down Iris's pimp and 3 others,Travis goes on to kill himself after the shootout.But before that he passes out from his wounds as Police arrive.
Next we know Travis Bickle is hailed as a "hero" in the papers and receives much appreciation from Iris's parents.And he goes on with his life.......
Bland.I expected this '76 classic being paced slow but it really crawled.This movie wouldn't score an 8.3 rating if it was released now in 2017
