CAT (2022)
Randeep Hooda is the saving grace
I think I've watched pretty much all the Hindi series available in OTT and I would say that although Bollywood had an extremely dull year at the box office with their movies, they were pretty good on OTT web series. I would say that CAT is the poorest of all in comparison given how weak the script is. The flashback portion was decent with some interesting twists but the rest of it was highly predictable including the climax. The first 4 episodes were good but the ending seemed a little rushed. There are a few sequences in the narration that have no impact on the series. For example, the madam aulakh backstory did not have any bearing on the story. The lead actor's brother going to Canada didn't mean anything and his girlfriend betraying him didn't have any impact. Overall, it could have been a much better series with good writing. This is just a time pass watch if you don't have anything literally anything to watch.
The Watcher (2022)
Just an average Suspense drama
First up, in a series like #TheWatcher people expect some drama in lead up to show the real antagonist at the end. Since this is a real story, the creators had very little say in the ending but the narration could have been better with a little less drama. The 1st few episodes creating too much drama to increase suspicion on multiple characters killed it for me. The daughter thread had so much to do upfront and the graph just goes down drastically and has no scenes at the finishing stages. The acting was pretty natural from all the cast which the audience expect these days. Overall, the Watcher ain't worth the hype. If you have literally nothing else to watch, you can go for this as a backup.
Ozark (2017)
S3 kills the show for me
Ozark is a kind of series where you feel things going on when you're watching it and then when you take a step back, you feel like the story hasn't gone any far. Honestly if I starting comparing Ozark to Money Heist, I seriously think the director of Ozark would take 4 seasons in 10. But hey, it's Ozarks in Missouri not Paris in Italy. Ofcourse it's slow. Coming to Season 3, the show gets a little too dragged. There's this therapist that Marty and Wendy byrde visit for Counselling who talks so slowly that makes you feel like she's slower than the series itself. The mandatory twist they show in the Finale was predictable.
The Morning Show (2019)
Good start and a great Finale
Things started like a typical drama series as the trailer suggests and they start getting messy and messy at the morning show and then the directors tie everything together slowly and give a thumping finale. As a hardcore friends fan, I kinda liked Reese witherspoon's performance over Jennifer Aniston's. Really impressed with the show and the plot of season 1. Can't wait for S2.
Nijam (2003)
Definitely a good attempt
A movie where Mahesh acting has become from amateurish to an excellent energetic performance.Thanks to director Teja for giving my favorite hero an excellent role.But the movie has few flaws and comedy was so vulgar.If at all comedy was good movie would have been much better.Sentiment was good.Mother and Father characters were well plotted.Rakshita was OK.Rest did their job as required.Direction is good.Concept is excellent.Movies like these should definitely be encouraged.Mahesh should definitely do such challenging roles in the future.He has done a real good job in the film.Barring few flaws the movie is a commendable attempt.
