La casa de papel (2017)
This Spanish Netflix Series is there to keep you hooked till the end
Recently I got addicted to this series and with its well thought out, brilliantly designed script and the way proper space it gave to each character cast to crawl out of the woodwork and define themselves, it was totally worth it. Despite being a high octane drama it sneaks past the barrier of your heart and sparks the dormant set of emotions which were lying around yearning to be recognised again. This is perhaps the only of its kind heist thriller which proudly defines its own standards and redefines the whole Netflix game in a new light ,while keeping the audience glued to their TV sets.
Alvaro Morte has so flawlessly blended into the character of "Professor" in this drama that it would be hard to differentiate acting from reality at times, whereas Raquel Murillo (Itziar Ituno) is an excellent actress who captures the soul of the character she played. (I had to google to know her name though but would remember now). The crazy pace this series maintains would simply boggle your mind and make you crave for more. Though reading the subtitles might make you miss the minute acts but maybe I might watch it again for this is a perfect feast in a sapiosexual manner.
Mr. X (2015)
Bravo Bhatts....I wanna kick your Butts
Don't jump out of your skin to find a reptilian like guy hitting on a pretty girl and wins her heart instead of experiencing a brief history of pain from the back of her hand. Yes! We are talking about Emraan Hashmi !!!Save your face-palm act for later as we have numerous such examples in bollywood and what's more disappointing is that they never give up. Such movies extend the credibility gap by portraying those girls as willfully offering to indulge in carnal acts with such atrocities. Majority would question that if it were some kind of legal Euthanasia? Even you may want to slit your own throat before watching such ugly duckling get lucky again, but believe me that is his USP (Even you might have secretly wished to switch roles with him).
Storyline: Raghu(Emraan Hashmi) a short stature cop from Mumbai police was assigned to protect the CM. He proved himself worthy of it by successfully terminating a terrorist who had hijacked a roadways bus, while leaving the tough job of diffusing the bomb to the girl. Thereafter, Raghu fell into the trap of his ambitious senior(Arunoday Singh) who sets him up to kill the CM. Hah! child's play! Raghu does the job in a jiffy. Now to ensure a clean job the senior(Arunoday Singh) had to wipe out the loose ends by killing E.H. restoring the law and order back. (You must have seen this part in -Phir bhi Dil hai Hindustani)
What I like about Mahesh Bhatt is how easily he slaps on the face of any logic one could ever come across. His new anti-radiation drug could make anybody disappear by its mere ingestion. Moreover such scientific breakthrough drug was being tested in a roadside company with practically no security at all. Yeah, burn those obsolete schoolbooks and join Bhatt classes on IIN instead; his daughter had already topped IIM's in "two states" and I am sure most of us have seen that flick too. The experimental drug was carelessly tossed in a beverage refrigerator of that company and was in easy access to any Tom, Dick or Harry. The Doctor easily transported it out of the company and was pretty confident while delivering it to Raghu, maybe she also wanted him to give up the ghost.
One can assess her level of confidence when she explained that the drug was not tested even on lab mice. But much to her dismay the lecher disappeared immediately after its consumption as a side effect to that drug. F***ing nemesis !!! He could only be seen under UV radiation now..Wow ! How ? Bravo Bhatts ...I wanna kick you butts . But on the other hand this discovery solves the riddle of invisible audiences who are occupying most of the seats for this Movie. Verdict: (Vanished) /10
Finding Fanny (2014)
Gonna watch it again !
-----------------------------FINDING FANNY ------------------------ To come up with a syrup the director took a love story, psychology of some retired old farts, fading Portuguese culture of Goa and blended 'em all together to gear up for the silver screen with "Finding Fanny" shake. Yuckk !! As the name sure promised a testosterone boost but was more of a blue pill for the old. The moment I found the background music missing from the screen, I realized that it was an art movie cooked up with a pinch of gray haired romance and a dash of humor for the seasoned. I had to evade dozing off while the reel was still rolling somehow, so I was forced to grab my Fanny (hip) flask. Aah ! There I was, armed up to the teeth for any genre of movie thrown at me. Here is my take on the story guys - Few Goans set out to find the love of Nasiruddin shah (Maybe to knock it off the bucket list). All from a village where nothing ever really happens and the meaningless discussions are a way of life. So they decided to take roughly 20 minutes for a journey but Alzheimer was kicking in to those rusty old veins so they lost the track of time. Potheads? Maybe! Breath analyzers can't detect it. Hey I was beginning to enjoy it
.as the time elapsed I found myself in a more comfortable position with heavy eyelids
. ZzZzZzzZzzzzzzzzzzzz.. I slept I am going to watch it again
Creature (2014)
Creature: A Deja Vu experience
My take on "Creature 3d Movie"
Upon being spotted 'the creature' successfully bewildered our innocent Bipasha Basu and the other rookie actor, (Whatsisname?), sparing the viewers from the much awaited "Mega surprise". The first impression is that the director got successful in genetically modifying the Lizard of 'the amazing Spiderman fame' to grow mustaches or maybe the retro creature might have picked up the 'Desi Tadka' during its Indian Safari. Viewers were highly disappointed with the epic failures encountered during the movie such as
- Creature shares some common genes with the stray dogs as it charged instinctively at every moving vehicle.
- Creature was humiliated by Bips by slam shutting the door on its face at least 7-8 times. The hope was still alive but when our rookie actor learned the trick then it was devastating.
- During the face off with Bips-Rookie Duo the creature runs at 3 km/hr that Bips or even the rookie actor manages to outperform the low- life anytime of the day (that too on foot).
- Dial Maneka Gandhi ! The creature was manhandled!!! The rookie actor amazed the viewers with his driving skills by tossing the creature in air mercilessly upon impact with his car.
- Mukul Dev in a desperate attempt to intrigue the viewers by tagging the creature as "Brahma Rakshas" helped the viewers to lose their faith further.
-Either the creature had a peculiar taste or he had some stomach issues because he never consumed the full body. Maybe the creature wanted to be recognized as a 'serial killer' by leaving a trail of rotten body part of its victims.
- The limited Vocab rendered the creature dyslexic that often he screamed "Waaah" or "Woooooow" upon catching the sight of Food.
- Finally the creature died upon receiving the sacred bullets dipped in the holy water of "Pushkar", discharging from the "double barrel" rifle in command of Bips. The double barrel gun surprisingly needed to be reloaded only once before the final shot after firing 6 bullets in vain. It made us feel that the creature was keen to end his life upon watching the mayhem created by the Bips-Rookie Duo that he decided to fake his own death. Final Verdict
– Common house Gecko lizard is still the undisputed king in the Horror Genre.
