What a RIDICULOUS movie! Which knew perfectly well it was ridiculous. If you can’t handle tension and twists and thrillers, read this review to just know the basics of what happened and talk about it with us. Or if you saw it and have Thoughts, you can read my summary and my thoughts and then we can talk!
Continue readingSuper fun movie! If you like black comedy and thriller twists, you will like this. It’s also a lot lighter than you might thing, the tone never shifts into depression and misery, it’s all just mystery and surprises and ridiculousness. On the other hand, if you don’t like twists and black comedy, maybe not.
Continue readingSocial Media! The DCIB version, where it’s all about cute pets and birthday wishes and Amitabh being a funny old man.
Continue readingBad Girls month, woo-hoo! Let’s see if this brings views back. Or if I just have to wait until there is another big movie in theaters people are excited about. Or do drugs and rock ‘n roll to go along with my very popular “sex” week.
Continue readingSuch a good interesting movie! There aren’t really surprise twists and stuff, but it is a journey for sure, so you should read the No Spoiler review if you are planning to see it and let it wash over you and surprise you.
Continue readingSuch a weird sleep day! Up super early, bed super early, and now it’s 2am and I just popped away and thought “well heck, I might as well write my Thappad review”.
Continue readingOkay, I’m home, I’m feeling better, I am ready to do a FilmFare post I actually want to do. CLOTHES!
Continue readingDo you trust my judgement? Do you like rom-coms? Then watch this! The hero is dreamy, the heroine is independent, and the plot is shockingly progressive. And romantic!
Continue readingBadla! Surprisingly solid little movie. Not groundbreaking, but well-made! Worth remembering as part of 2019
Continue readingI really surprised myself with how much I liked this movie. And I think you should all give it a chance because you might have a pleasant surprise too!
Continue readingBlech! This was such a bad film! BLECH!!!!!!!!!! I just want to vomit thinking about it. You probably shouldn’t watch it.
Continue readingI think this might have been the most unpleasant movie I have ever watched. It was like having wooden stakes driven under my nails for 20 hours. Needless to say, I do not recommend it to you. And if you read my posts regularly, you know that it is a rare thing for me not to encourage you to see a movie, so take it seriously.
Continue readingYaaay, Badla is on Netflix!!!! And perfectly timed for NRI week, so I even have an excuse to combine and repost my two reviews from the theatrical release.
Continue readingHuh! Two teaser trailers today and I’m not sure what to think about either of them. Luckily, I have you all to help me decide what to think!
Continue readingHappy Saturday! Supposedly we will get a bunch of thunderstorms today that will turn the 99 degree weather into a more tolerable high 70s. But I will believe it when I see it. In the meantime, I will spend my day hiding in air conditioned spaces.
Continue readingI thought I didn’t have a lot to say about these, but now all three are out, and I know a lot of you have watched them, I thought I might as well put up a space for us to talk about them. And then I turned out to have A LOT to say after all!
Continue readingYaaaay, a good movie! I love when I can review a good movie instead of complaining about a bad one. This isn’t, like “brilliant perfect best ever” movie. But it is very well-made and generally solid. If you like kind of mystery thriller movies. Oh, and AVOID SPOILERS. Don’t read this review if you have any chance of watching this movie, read this review instead.
Continue readingI wouldn’t bother with this trailer if it were just another Amitabh revenge thriller type thing, but it’s produced by Red Chillies, which adds on another layer of interest.
Continue readingOh boy, spoilers time! For me at least, there is nothing more stressful than a love triangle. I am always worried that the wrong couple will end up together. If you want that stress removed, you can read this and know how it ends. But on the other hand, a lot of the entertainment of the film is not being sure how it will end and trying to guess. So if you want that entertainment, read the No Spoilers review instead.
I am so glad I saw this movie! It meant driving for over an hour there and back and spending hideous amounts of money on the tickets (I do not understand the release strategy at all. Why only one theater, and only the most expensive theater?), but it was exciting and different and most of all, just plain GOOD.
Funny collection of trailers today, one of them is for a movie that isn’t even playing in theaters. I guess they are just the September dregs, not big enough to wait for Diwali or another holiday, so might as well throw out the promotions and the films now.
Everything’s coming up Vicky! Takht announcement, and now this trailer. But, more than Vicky, everything’s coming up Abhishek. He’s BACK! And how!!!!
I already put up my No Spoilers review, and this really is a good movie, so I would recommend skipping this review until after you watch it, if you are able to watch it. The trailer gives away the general outlines of the plot, but there is a lot more to it which deserves to be seen with fresh eyes, not spoiled by me.
This was such a nice movie! Not a perfect movie, a little confused in some parts, felt like the connective tissue was missing a bit, but overall a very nice movie.
The mere fact of Salman being in this film isn’t a spoiler, right? That’s been so heavily promoted that you can’t escape it? The exact manner of his appearance has not been promoted, but I’ll tell you that. The rest of the plot, definitely spoilers. Yes, even if you have seen the original. (review of the original Judwaa here and no spoiler review of Judwaa 2 here)
