Happy Memorial Day! Got into a big debate on the blog a while back about whether it is appropriate to say “happy” for memorial day and similar holidays. Whatever, I am ALWAYS happy!
Dus! I could swear it was on Netflix when I checked 2 days ago, but now it isn’t. Very weird. Anyway, hop over to Prime instead! It’s the big stupid action movie with great songs of your DREAMS.
I’ll put up a comment right here when it is time to start, and then we can comment along on this post.

Thank you Filmikudhi for reminding me! Director Anubhav Sinha, more recently made Thappad, Mulk, and Article 15. He’s all bleeding edge social just and deep and smart now. But before that, he made this movie and Ra.One.
