The Spy (2019)
8/10
A HUMAN IMPERFECT SPY - Gripping, Intense, Binge-Watch!!!
8 September 2019
A real human spy well portrayed with Great acting by BORAT(Sacha Baron) quite a bit different from his usual antics :). A real person making mistakes driven by emotion and eagerness is the differentiating part of this show. The show is very well directed and whole period feel is well presented with excellent cinematography. All the characters have performed very well, expressing the intense emotions needed to stir the audience, which makes it very engaging. The story is filled with good realism overall and not too much DRAMA nor unnecessary smartness. Its a good watch worth the time spent and the length of the series is perfect, not to drag things and to still capture the depth of the story and characters.

Gully Boy: Live In Concert (2019 TV Movie)
3/10
Nothing like the movie!! avoid it
5 May 2019
Ranveer Singh - great artist great performer. good job in the movie. BUT PLZ Stick to movies and Stage Shows, RAP is not you or any of the crew in this LIVE Concert. This is a big let down after the movie no disrespect to any of the performers , u guys might be amazing generally and your hands(or lips) tied down by script and direction. DONT Waste your time to watch it.

And dont say ' maybe u havent been to a live concert before' i have 50cent, Eminem,Kanye West, David Guetta, Amy Winehouse, Coldplay, RHCP, Chemical brothers and many more, Yes live concerts have a different feel, but if you ever see a concert recreated for TV presentation let it lead you cas the atmosphere of a live concert and feel of it cannot be recreated for TV/Cinema thru just live recording.

Gully Boy (2019)
8/10
Indian 8 Mile
5 May 2019
Well done , all the characters are well played out specially MC Sher. The story line is interesting, predictable yet interesting. Ranveer Singh is well suited for the lead role he brings his energy that the lead needs. Good movie thru-out, acting, directing,music and everything. You should definitely watch it, Bollywood needed a movie in this genre.

The Ruthless (2019)
4/10
Toothless not ruthless !!!!!
2 May 2019
It starts off well but leads no where, the storyline lacks a punch. The actors are ok but everything about the movie is average and below. The only thing they managed to do was give an authentic old eighties film(the average ones) feel to the movie but i think that is actually not intended and accidentally achieved through mediocrity.

Not worth the watch , if you have taste in movies , it is a waste of time. unless u r having a few drinks and dont want to bother concentrating while chatting.

Chambers (2019)
7/10
Thriller/Horror with a twist - Very Watchable
28 April 2019
Good acting, good story telling - steady speed throughout, stays gripping and good suspense throughout. The story is well built up, lots of cliche horror movie hints, which i enjoy. The story line evolves into a new direction not very predictable, which is a good thing ,THE SCREEN needs creativity can't just keep on having the same old horror storylines along 2-3 tangents. I would definitely recommend watching the show it's worth the time. The series ends very well setting it up for a second season - I hope they get it right.

Great Epic Battle Movie
19 April 2019
You'll love it if you like epic battles - Troy, 300, Alexander. The movie is a bit long(like all epic battle movies) but it is justified to capture the whole extent and the building of the story and characters. The sets , costumes, sound effects and quality of production is all top level. Need to watch it on a Big TV to appreciate it wholly. The story is interesting and garners sympathy for the underdogs, really involving the audience. How everyone plays their part to save what they love is well played out. Good action and battle choreography.

Korean cinema is really good and great work by Netflix in recent times to promote it. And you really need to watch 'The Kingdom' - Korean Zombie Samurai 'ish' Era series.

The Drug King (2018)
6/10
Worth the watch !! if you liked Scarface and Narcos But not at that level
22 February 2019
Its a decent movie if you like the Narcos driven hype and drug kingpin storyline at the moment. Korean cinema is generally very interesting with a lot of brilliant movies. The story is interesting , the directing overall is good but the movie in a few places lacks a smooth fluid transition between the different chapters of the storyline. The movie is a bit too long and feels dragged out by the time you reach the end they should have prioritized a bit better with what could be left out. The lead actor has done a good job along with many of the co-stars who have performed very well.

The Umbrella Academy (2019–2024)
9/10
Great show- Realistic Superheroes - Good storyline
20 February 2019
All the characters are perfectly built up over the episodes at a good pace. Good interesting story line with not so predictable aspects. The series is medium paced overall and focuses on depth of characters and alot of focus on their flaws and emotional insecurities , making them very relatable. Music is good with many popular and very well placed songs, the sound effects are good at creating the right atmosphere in many scenes. The directing and special effects are good. All the characters are brilliantly played out by all actors especially No.5 and Klaus. A very enjoyable series with a lot of positives and hardly any shortcomings. I am sure season 2 will see the light of day hope its soon.

Diablero (2018–2020)
8/10
Don't DUB do the Sub(s). Good entertaining series well done !!!!!
6 February 2019
Its a good series, very Constatine and Dusk till Dawn crossover vibe. You need to watch it with subtitles to get a real feel, Dub doesnt do it justice. Interesting story line good characters, good make-up, good laughs, good fun action. Its very enjoyable, fingers crossed for a season 2 release.

Polar (I) (2019)
6/10
B-grade, Exaggerated Action, Silliness Galore - All intended..maybe ?? U decide
31 January 2019
The seriousness of the lead and the goofiness of everyone else doesn't seem to agree. Same old generic assassin story line without any meaning. Lots of gore and action - the action is overdone and illogical actions by the baddies in many sequences make it seem even more stupid.

Must See . Zombies meet Zatoichi.
26 January 2019
Has to be one of the best series in 2019 by netflix, I know I know its only january just now. But what a beginning to the year. You cannot miss it. Just wrapped up the season its brilliant all the way through. Beautiful costumes, amazing cinematography , brilliant gore, hints of comedy, good balanced action. Not too much of anything and not too little. Great gripping storyline throughout with an amazing lead role. Not a spoiler ***** i died laughing at the head-cuffs scene ***** u'll know when u see it.

The Rain (2018–2020)
5/10
Average watch but not too much depth
26 January 2019
The first episode is very irritating and dialogues are very poor, dont judge the entire series on it, give it a chance. The following episodes build up a bit of pace, there are few a action scenes but no intense zombie/outbreak/feral scenes. Everyone's background is thrown light on, but none are too engaging to help connect with the characters. I say give it a chance as its not my cup of tea but many might like it, and its not a total waste of time, if you go in with medium expectations u wont be disappointed.
