The Aeronauts

Language -English. How was it? -Good. Nothing different in the story department. The visuals are rich and stunning. The script wraps nicely around the female lead character. How likely are you to recommend your friend to watch this movie? Maybe not. They would regard it amiss and a bit slow. My after thoughts I have always wanted to go on an air balloon. Wonder what it would be to actually be up there. People who should watch this? If you like movies of the past that are based on a real life story.. People who should not watch this? If you are expecting some irrational stuff or super dooper twist. Would you watch the movie again? For the visuals, maybe yes.

Vaanam Kottatum

Language -Tamil. How was it? -Nice. So good to see a cast of so many hero's in a single movie. Especially, Sarath Kumar. There is Amul baby(from VIP), Vikram Prabhu and Ishwariya Rajesh. And whats special? The music director. Its Sid Sriram. How likely are you to recommend your friend to watch this movie? Already done. Would have been awesome had we hit the theater. My after thoughts I wish I had a sister like Ishwariya Rajesh. Vikram Prabhu gets a good movie after a long time. Good for him. Had it not been for the combo of artists, I wouldn't have liked it. People who should watch this? If you like many hero and heroin acting side by side. People who should not watch this? If you are expecting some super awesome stuff. Just a normal story with an unusual combo of casts. Would you watch the movie again? Not sure. With a friend, maybe yes.

The Ring

Language -English. How was it? -Creepy. All you need from an horror movie is the chills and creepiness. This movie does just that. I've seen many movies trolling a scene from this movie but its still good enough. How likely are you to recommend your friend to watch this movie? A ten out of ten. My after thoughts Why does every ghost need a flashback? Why is it that injustice is done and it turns to be a ghost? People who should watch this? If you like watching horror movies. People who should not watch this? If you can't handle your emotions well. Would you watch the movie again? Maybe. Most probably, no.

Masaan

Language -Hindi. How was it? -Good enough. Another story of losing the loved one. How likely are you to recommend your friend to watch this movie? Maybe they need some inspiring movies this lock down. My after thoughts Why does it always have to be this way. Losing someone you love. Learning life the hard way. Or is it only in movies? I frankly have no idea. People who should watch this? If you like watching movies based on love. People who should not watch this? If you don't want to feel sad at the end of an movie. Would you watch the movie again? Nope.

C/o kancharapalem

How likely are you to recommend your friend to watch this movie? They aren't gonna like it but I would do about my job of recommending. My after thoughts Such amazing talent.

Lucia

Language -Kannada. How was it? -Great. I didn't know the Tamil movie "Enakul Oruvan" by siddarth was a remake. Amazing story. How likely are you to recommend your friend to watch this movie? Not this but the Tamil version for my friends. My after thoughts I thought the Tamil industry had such brilliant story but its actually the Kannada industry. Personally prefer the Tamil version as I could relate more and the songs are good enough. People who should watch this? Everyone. If you haven't already watched the Tamil or Kannada version. People who should not watch this? None I could think of. A must watch for everyone. Would you watch the movie again? Watched the Tamil version around three times already. And counting.

Escape from Pretoria

Language -English. How was it? -Okay-ish. A prison break movie of Harry potter without his magical powers. Looks like the movie came to an end soon and some details were missing. How likely are you to recommend your friend to watch this movie? Not really. My after thoughts Could have shown more details of Pretoria. Racial discrimination. Good thing its all in the past now.

Would you watch the movie again? Nah. Never.

Frequencies

Language -English. How was it? -Brainstorming. One of the movies that leave you wondering and go googling. A sci-fi with great visuals and sound. How likely are you to recommend your friend to watch this movie? They aren't gonna like it. My after thoughts Word manipulation. Does it even exist? What parts of the movie are even real? All character names were exceptional. What does act III even convey? People who should watch this? Every sci-fi lover. People who should not watch this? If you haven't watched any sci-fi movies. Would you watch the movie again? Sure. To understand better.

Sairat

Language -Marathi. How was it? -Enjoyed it. The same old love story of a low caste boy loving a high caste girl. Nothing new there. But, time just flew up and I could easily connect with the characters. All the characters were so good that I never felt like watching a Marathi movie. How likely are you to recommend your friend to watch this movie? Upload the whole movie if I have to. Please don't take it seriously and ask me to send the movie as such. Its nearly 3 hours. My after thoughts Haha. Is it the same everywhere? People against love, in the name of caste. Is it their mistake they loved or the mistake of the parents, who loved their caste even more than their children? People who should watch this? Everyone and especially if you love someone. People who should not watch this? If you need an action packed movie. This movie is a bit on the slower side. Would you watch the movie again? Sure. First, need to get the song tracks.

Trance

Language -Malayalam. How was it? -Not good enough. A controversial movie is what you think getting into the movie. But, the second half takes a drastic turn and lets you down. And its dragging. 170 mins runtime. Can't say a word about acting. Its Fahad Fazil. But, not sure if Nazriya had to do that role. The character seems off. How likely are you to recommend your friend to watch this movie? Wanted to message them immediately at the time of intermission. But, was convinced not to at the end. My after thoughts I finally got an answer for the definition of religion. DRUG. Feeding people's emotion with a powerful drug. Just disappointed with how it travels after a certain point. People who should watch this? All ardent believers of Christianity. People who should not watch this? If you expect anything at least half of the movie "PK". Would you watch the movie again? Never again.

Pattas

Language -Tamil. How was it? -Good. A movie to bring out an art from and it did just what was needed. How likely are you to recommend your friend to watch this movie? Not likely, as most of them have already watched it. My after thoughts Even I am tempted to learn the art form. Why don't we know about it? Are we not bothered or are we not aware of ourselves? People who should watch this? Everyone. At least get to know that such an art form exists. People who should not watch this? If you already know about the art form "Adimurai". Would you watch the movie again? Nope.

Evaru

Language -Telugu. How was it? -Simply superb. The screenplay does all the talking. Kept me engaged right from the first frame. Lost me a bit at the start but back on track again. You know there is going to be twist in the tale and you keep expecting it. A good movie satisfies it and you may say I already guessed it. But, some come as a bolt from the blue. How likely are you to recommend your friend to watch this movie? As likely as the lock down is going to be extended. My after thoughts Where did it start and where did it end! Is the twist the starting point of story writing or does it come off just like that, on the way? So foolish of the lawyer to go all by himself. Lies! Why do we lie and what causes us to. Is it really the situation? People who should watch this? For all crime thriller lovers and fans of Regina Cassandra. People who should not watch this? If you need a strong story line. Would you watch the movie again? Not so sure with all the twists ...

Frozen II

Language -Animation(English). How was it? -Spectacular. Not much with the story as usual.

My after thoughts I should rather show this movie to my uncle's son and ask him what he feels. People who should watch this? If you like watching animation movies. People who should not watch this? If you need a strong story line. Would you watch the movie again? Maybe. With my uncle's son!

Hit The First Case

Language -Telugu. How was it? -Nice. All what a crime thriller needs. Suspicion on all characters, gripping music, hero with a defect, emotional attachment and the twist in the tale. Not so satisfied with the twist in the tale. I saw it coming. And, it seems a bit too much at the end. How likely are you to recommend your friend to watch this movie? Need to hit the theaters for part two. So, it's a must watch. My after thoughts Is there a part two coming? Maybe, that's where the flashback comes. I felt genuinely sad for Ibrahim(thought he would play a big role). Everybody has a thing with the past. Something that haunts you and that you don't want to talk about. People who should watch this? If you like watching a crime thriller. People who should not watch this? If you need a strong story line to keep you engaged, this isn't you piece of cake. But, I recommend you try this. Would you watch the movie again? Definitely. Just before the release o...

1917

Language -English. How was it? -Brainstorming. Not much in the story department. Just a simple story of what happened back in 1917. The biggest deal is its all in a single take. Yes, you heard me right. SINGLE TAKE. How likely are you to recommend your friend to watch this movie? An absolute ten of ten. My after thoughts I kept my eyes wide open looking for a cut or a black somewhere and I failed(expect when he is shot). Such an amazing initiative. Is there movies like this? Need to definitely look up at behind the scene and the making of the movie. If it is a single shot all through, oh my god, it seems like such a big set! How many art director's are actually working in this movie? People who should watch this? If you are movie geek or a genuine movie lover. People who should not watch this? If you need a strong story line to keep you engaged, this isn't you piece of cake. But, I recommed you try this. Would you watch the movie again? Maybe. But, ...

Love Mocktail

Language -Kannada. How was it? -Good enough. A usual one of those love stories. And if you could relate it is fantastic. That's how every love movies are taken. To be relate-able. We could relate in someplace in the story. And it just does fine. How likely are you to recommend your friend to watch this movie? Nothing special. So, maybe not so much. My after thoughts Wish I could be like Nidhi. Again the ending. What is this thing with endings and Kannada movies(that I watch). People who should watch this? If you are really bored and you like Kannada movies. People who should not watch this? If you aren't into love or if you hate the word "love". Or if you are not ready for a movie to take you into emotions. Would you watch the movie again? Honestly, no.

Spies in Disguise

Language -Animation(English). How was it? -Nice. You don't realize it's an animation movie once you get into it. Familiar voices of Will Smith and Tom Holland. How likely are you to recommend your friend to watch this movie? Not so likely. My after thoughts Wish I could have transform into some kind of bird. Another film about being good. People who should watch this? If you are interested in animation or a spy kind of movie. People who should not watch this? If you aren't into animation. Would you watch the movie again? Nope.

Jojo Rabbit

Language -English. How was it? -Okay-ish. This movie is not for everyone. I just got the gist of it. How likely are you to recommend your friend to watch this movie? Never am I. My after thoughts I don't know why my friend recommended this to me. Never discriminate a fellow human based on caste and creed. The girl looks beautiful. People who should watch this? I better leave it unanswered. People who should not watch this? If you are an ardent follower of Hitler. Would you watch the movie again? Nope.
