Monkey Man (2024)
Monkey made man movie
This was one of the worst movie from last 2-3 years. Wasted my precious time in theater...
Dev Patel takes himself way too seriously in this misguided action film. There is actually a line in the film where a character asks him "Don't you want to sleep?" and without making eye contact, in a sweat, he pauses and says "I never sleep." The story is all over the place. As if they had cool scene ideas and forced them together with little to no cohesion. The action is good in parts and terrible in others. The shaky cam is definitely a style choice but after a while it gets annoying and nauseating. The training montage alone was enough to get me busting out laughing. Without spoiling too much, Dev Patel starts punching a big bag of rice in this poor religious combine, gets super sweaty, takes his shirt off because why not, and beats all the rice out of it. Meanwhile everyone in the combine is cheering for him and praising him for how great he is. What's his connection to them? No idea. Why do they care? Also unsure. Oh and the combine he's at is a Muslim trans community. The inhabitants of which join him in the fight later and murder people. Yes, I'm serious. Could have been hilarious if they played it off as humor, but they didn't. It's all very serious. In my screening most people seemed bored and uninterested. A handful of people were still sleeping..
Random stories of politics and religion out of no where..
Tu Jhoothi Main Makkaar (2023)
Great movie, unpredictable and with depth
Loved the movie. I wont write much but it was great to watch. I went nostalgic with India and family culture. Shraddha and Ranbir were natural and smooth in their performance. The other cast was complimenting really well. Direction was great, Music was not boring either. Dance performance was top. Shraddha was at her best w/ energy. Good to see Ranbir in his skin of great performance.
There were some good Cameos which I wont disclose names of. The comedy was good, the writing was good. I loved some short monologues, I don't know why people are so picky on YouTube reviews these days. These type of writers should be paid more.
Brahmastra Part One: Shiva (2022)
Missed opportunity
Even after a disappointing string of movies from Bollywood in the last year, this movie gave hope and looked promising. The trailer looked amazing and everything looked positive. But Bollywood struck again with their mediocrity. The trailer is designed to fool the audience. Again, the film falls flat on its choppy story and bad screenplay. The makers of this film tried to cover it up with spectacular visuals but the story has more holes than swiss cheese. Amitabh Bachchan is impressive but can't be expected to carry the entire film. Same old clichés and masala love stories have been added in this film also. And it feels the movie is half hour too long. Overall, the hype is not real and not worth it. The two stars are for showing up and visual effects.
Liger (2022)
Reviews on YouTube are much entertaining
I didn't dare to watch the movie, but honestly I saw like 25-30 reviews and they all were super entertaining and unanimous on their 0/5 rating for the movie. Karan Johar managed to ruin the movie, that's his superpower. The Actor are arrogant who have no love of better movie making but to be over confident.
I won't waste my time in more words and watching the movie even on OTT. What's wrong with movie makers these days.. ? I won't waste my time in more words and watching the movie even on OTT.

Laal Singh Chaddha (2022)
Wrong Script & Adaptation, unconvincing performance
The vision was lacking. Aamir should have visualized the end product with all the lenses of cinema. The story-line and acting choices were disappointing. This did not feel an Aamir khan level movie at any level. Not even sure what the message is here.
Could Aamir khan have put a dialog in the movie "Namaaz padhne se Malaria failta hai?" He should not bring religion into his movies. The Pakistan element was not required as well.
Runway 34 (2022)
Good performance, nicely written
Good movie. We need stories and write up like this. We need to continue on this trend along with our love for action movies from south. Ajay sir also made Tanhaji, I wish he makes more unsung hero movies too.
K.G.F: Chapter 2 (2022)
Director is lost. Editing and sound is horrible
Worst editing and sound job. It's a complete torture to eyes and ears. The scenes are abrupt with extra loud music. This is a good opportunity completely lost. Script could have been a bit better, and ending do not make any sense.
The Matrix Resurrections (2021)
Enjoyed the movie, glad I ignored the reviews
I liked the movie enough to give 6* but gave one more * to protest the disappointment by others. The movie was nicely put up. So many new concepts and it fits the original trilogy very well. It's a good setup for what's next to come. Looking forward to matrix 5.
Andhadhun (2018)
Rare Masterpiece ! With best Ending
So much talent to make this, all of them have to come together at right time with right amount of ratio to make it a great movie.
Piano / Music, Direction, Story, Editing, Acting, Cast ... All of them should get awards.
It takes a few days to come out of the movie's ending analysis and hangover from everything.
Lupin (2021)
Everything to convenience, Poor writing
One of those shows, where every event will unfold to main character's convenience. Timing, Logic etc. Do not even add up. I will stop wasting my time after a few episodes of second season.
Beyond the Clouds (2017)
No Story
Wasted my couple of hours. Story didn't move and plot had a few gaps.
Aksi's mom and kids could have gone to Aksi's place to live instead of living on street.
Laxmii (2020)
Why even make this?
What was the purpose of this movie? There was no good horror, no good story or dialogue, no good comedy, no good songs, no good message to convey. Why even make the movie? What was the purpose of this movie?
Baaghi 3 (2020)
Waste of resources
No sane minded person would make a movie like this with such a big budget. Helicopter can appear from nowhere. They can teleport from field to a city. The actor jumping to the front of an explosion suddenly finds himself on the helicopter which was 20 meters behind him. Don't waste your time.
Kabir Singh (2019)
Great watch. Hats off Shahid!
Don't look for logic and character judgement, it's story tellers wish to narrate the story and create characters they want. If you dislike this movie, don't watch game of thrones, mirzapur, veere do wedding etc either.
Best work from Shahid after Udta Punjab.
Godzilla: King of the Monsters (2019)
Worst movie ever!!
Every moment of the film was torture. Nothing make sense. Millions are killed but camera and story focus on petty things and emotions. So Godzilla lives in an Egyptian tomb in the middle of ocean.. lol.
Creature comes out of volcano and army wants to kill it with bullets and bombs. How insane and stupid the storyline can go.
I liked the previous version way better, but not this one.
