The Americans (2013)
An absolute masterpiece!!
I heard a lot about this show but was not ready to give it a go, it's because there are plenty of tv shows about the espionage genre and I've seen mostly of them, but this tops the chart by a margin. It just hooked me from the very beginning. Brilliant story with perfect cast. I wish it wouldn't have ended.unlike other shows which have plenty of irrelevant stuff to give tv shows unnecessary length The Americans just keep you guessing and engaging at the same time. I've underestimated this brilliant show and which is why i watched it in 2023 even though i know about it for quite long time and now a plan to watch it again. A must watch i would say!!
Dunki (2023)
An emotional ride that doesn't feel like Hirani's classic!
Raj Kumar Hirani is like Christopher Nolan of Bollywood. Time and again he came up with unique plots which were instantly recognized. This time he teamed up with SRK. The story is about illegal immigration. A beautiful lesson you can say with touch of emotion and comedy. I'll not treat it as a masterpiece because Hirani has set the bar so high that Dunki couldn't pass that bar despite the unique storyline with background Score and perfect cast. Movie is decent, watchable with family as well.
People now a days judge a movie through its box office success and here some people are comparing Dunki with a South movie which is ridiculous because both movies are completely different!
So, you can watch it on big screen but eventually you will understand that Dunki doesn't meet the standard of Munna bhai, 3 idiots and pK.
The Killer (2023)
David Fincher is great but this movie isn't!
The way the trailer of this movie was edited, i was hoping for a classic from one of the brilliant director of current era, but this movie is not up to the mark in any sence. Slow paced, average movie, nothing new, no twist, no aw moment NOTHING.
I don't know what was the point of making such a movie? The trailer of the movie indicated that it will be an action packed movie, but there were barely any action sequences. The first half of movie was so boring that i almost gave it up but than i thought maybe it will get better in second half but nothing. I'll not recommend it anyone but some people may tempt considering the director angle!!
Jawan (2023)
SRK stardom at its very best!!
The most anticipated movie of the year is here and SRK singlehandedly steal the show. It starts with a beautiful green scene and water where some villagers are working and they found a body in water which is SRK. They brought him home where SRK is cured. After the initial fight scene the movie goes "after 30 years" and now the story explores and it just keeps you on the edge with its fast pace which is very good thing to be honest it does not give audience a chance where they can feel boredom. Rest of the cast has done well as well but SRK with Max screen time proves his worth. With 150+ crore opening worldwide SRK shows yet again why he is the king of the Bollywood. Pure entertainment! Go and watch on big screen. A movie should provide entertainment considering the Bollywood angle and jawan provide you a hell of entertainment!!
Dark (2017)
Started good but than fall apart!
This could have been one of the best show ever created, but things started to fall apart after season one. Everyone was hoping to get the answers of mysteries which first season presented. Seems like writers were clue less. Story became way too complicated and it i lost my interest. I was hoping that eventually I'll get my answers but there was nothing!!
PS: people like adult as well as horror scenes which were added Baselessly in this show. Was it necessary to start almost every episode with intercourse?? Writers knew the psychology of masses therefore they added those kinda stuff to make it more relatable for us!!
Mission: Impossible - Dead Reckoning Part One (2023)
Up to the mark, yet again!
Probably the only franchise going around in which the latest entry surpasses the rest of movies quite amazingly. After Fallout expectations were obviously high for dead reckoning and Tom Cruise delivered yet again. He is one of kind, i would say and this is the real cinema for which people have ever wished. Its a simple rule: when you give you 100% things will go according to your plan. Tom is 61 currently and look at his enthusiasm. This is a thing you won't see very often. I will not spoil a bit for you, as this movie requires to be watched in cinema. Go watch and you will be blown away. Saw this yesterday and still thinking how ambitious Tom is to entertain us!!
Fringe (2008)
Huge let down in season 5!!
This was one of the best show i ever come across and its not even in the top 250 of IMDb which indicates that its highly underrated. Start was brilliant, things were smooth until season 3, season 4 started well but things started to fall apart and then come the season 5 which was complete failure. Its ending was so rushed that i was wondering why man, why? It would have been better had they stick with the alternative universe battle or the common enemy Jones, if you want some kind of twist. But i believe writer were out of ideas and so gave up and things were on there own. The last episode was so rushed, it felt that somebody has forced/threat writers to wind up things!!
Extraction 2 (2023)
6/10, max 7/10 nothing more!!
So, how many times we are going to watch such straight action movies? Literally there was nothing new which you haven't seen at least dozen times. You can consider this a popcorn flick but I'll not treat it as a genuine movie. For a movie to won the heart of the audience, it should have ups and downs, twist N turns, so it could grapple the audience's mind. But here is kinda nothing. No doubt the action scenes are marvelous but you feel something is missing overall after watching this. Have heard that they are going to make extraction III which won't work if it is going to the replica of extraction II. Need a better writing!
The Prestige (2006)
Tell me underrated movie higher than this!!
Christopher Nolan is no doubt currently the best director on the face of the planet. I was hoping for a good movie but this goes way higher than my expectations yet criminally underrated! Top notch directing, brilliant acting and unique twists make this movie one of the best movie Hollywood ever produced. One of the best thing about Christopher Nolan movies is that you have to pay attention to the small things as well. For example in prestige, when the kid asks " where is his brother? " was a moment i thought could be of importance which eventually proves correct. I won't spoil any bit of this masterpiece! But I'll suggest to watch it twice in order to grab how brilliant this movie is!
The Blacklist: The Night Owl (2023)
Promising start but Aram should be back if he isn't!
I was waiting eagerly for this season because this is the last chance to enjoy one of greatest show I've ever witnessed. The gang of blacklister is teaming up against our beloved character (James Spader). Let see how things work but i want aram to be there in whole season as he turned up in this episode. He is a very jolly character and he adds special flavor in the chemistry between FBI and Red. Dembee is currently working with FBI but it would be more appropriate if he works for Red and daughter of malik joins the team replacing dembee. Last thing I want is to have maximum episodes of this finale!!
Jug Jugg Jeeyo (2022)
Typical Bollywood!
Ok, so how many times we are going to see such movies from Bollywood!? God knows. It has nothing original or entertaining which you haven't seen. Plot is below average. Writers have no idea what to do with story except this divorce mantra. I gave it four star just because of anil Kapoor.
Person of Interest (2011)
Better than i thought!!
I didn't see that coming, was expecting to be an average show but geez, its definitely one of the best yet highly underrated show of all time. Just completed first season and now I'm hooked.cant wait.watching constantly now. Give it a go, you won't regret it!
Prison Break (2005)
Masterclass!!
Definitely one of the best tv show ever. From the word get go, it just kept the viewers on the edge. Brilliant story, great action, top notch acting! 10/10.
Bachchhan Paandey (2022)
Reason why people are disliking Bollywood!
Ok, so here we are, again with a typical pathetic Bollywood movie. Why we witnessing such movies time and time again even though the people behind such movies know exactly that now a days movies don't do well if story is a crap like this!? It's a wake up call for Bollywood to stop creating such pathetic movies!!
The Blacklist (2013)
James Spader has created a legacy!
I usually go through movies and TV shows after quite a speculation, it takes time for me to decide which tv show should I opt. There is no shame in saying that the blacklist is one of the best show I've ever come across. James acting is absolutely mesmerizing, definitely it's worth your time!!
F9 (2021)
Literally went into space this time!!
Well, honestly i was not interested in this movie bcz this franchise was dead for me after furious 7. But surprisingly this was a good movie for me despite that fact that it had some flaws. Like there was no need to go in space but they somehow went. Script was OK but the tempo of the movie was fast and it ended in real hurry leaving some questions unanswered. No gathering of Jacob with family and Charlie Theron is still out there like previous one fast 8!!
Black Widow (2021)
A complete failure!!
I was pretty excited for this movie, but this is way below than my expectations. The only reason i give it 4/10 is Florence Pugh. She was brilliant. The story of the movie is certainly not up to the marvel standard and neither is the villain, which appeared barley in the movie!
Hitman's Wife's Bodyguard (2021)
Even Morgan Freeman and Samuel L Jackson couldn't save this!!
A complete failure! There is nothing which you haven't seen and there is not much as you would expect. Rather it's quite boring and lead female overacting is completely annoying instead of creating fun. It's not worth of your time.
Loki (2021)
Certainly, its not up to my expectations!!
I was pretty much excited for loki,but i stopped after second episode, falcon and winter soldier is definitely better than loki!!
The Misfits (2021)
Boring, predictable, nothing attractive!
The only reason i give it 4/10 is Pierce Brosnan.rest of crew was mediocre and that black guy accent was just horrible!!
Wrath of Man (2021)
Just Jason Statham kinda flick, spoiler free!!
I just love Jason Statham,i was always going to watch this movie, doesn't matter it's good or bad in terms of rating,but Gee, this movie was great, above my expectation, the attitude of Statham makes movie more powerful, watch it and you won't regret it.
Aspirants (2021)
A good idea lost in typical Bollywood world
This show was really good at the beginning focusing particularly on UPSC, but then it faded and in the later part it was a typical Bollywood which you often see.
Mortal Kombat (2021)
Nothing new which you haven't seen before!
Typical concept which you have seen time and time again, story is quite predictable which makes it boring,the reason i give it 4/10, are two things: action+ music.
Human Target (2010)
Thriller, masterpiece, unique!!
I've always wished for such series, truly amazing. From the first episode, it fascinated me. Could have watched all day
10/10.
The Falcon and the Winter Soldier (2021)
So many negative reviews, but why?
I'm unable to grab the fact that why people are criticizing without fully grabbing it? This show is still new and picking up pace but according to some daft everything should be done and dusted within two episodes. If you don't like,then don't watch!!
