Shakuntala Devi

  Language -Hindi. How was it? -Not bad. A good one to pass your time in this extended lock down. A bit too much drama is what i felt. How likely are you to recommend your friend to watch this movie? Nothing much to recommend here. My after thoughts There is a saying that, when you realize that your dad was right, you have a son saying you are wrong. Could have included a little more math tricks into the movie. People who should watch this? If you like Vidhya Balan. People who should not watch this? If you are expecting a supernatural movie to change your perspective of maths, then you are really going to be disappointed. Would you watch the movie again? Never will I.

The Goldfinch

  Language -English. How was it? -Okay-ish. Not so good. Either they messed up with the screenplay or I am dumbass. It feels like a mystery story of a boy and turns out to be something else. Which isn't so captivating. Great visuals all through. How likely are you to recommend your friend to watch this movie? Not at all. My after thoughts After the first few minutes, I was totally engrossed into the character and his world. And sadly the effect faded away quickly as it came. Or maybe I don't have enough background knowledge to appreciate the film. People who should watch this? If you are screenplay writer and want to some inspirations for a simply drama movie. People who should not watch this? If you are not a complete drama lover. Maybe, no one should watch it expect for some stunning visuals. Would you watch the movie again? Nope. Maybe, if I really needed to know something(some background concept) before watching the movie.

Onward

Language -Animation(English). How was it? -Good. All features required of an animation film are intact, except songs(if you are a disney fan). A fantasy world with magic. A few minutes into the film and you are into that world. There are some moments when you forget it's an animation movie. And moments when you appreciate the animation work, How likely are you to recommend your friend to watch this movie? Good but not good enough for a recommendation from my side. My after thoughts A movie after a long gap. Should get back to watching one per day. People who should watch this? If you are into animation movies and like wizard and stuff, this is perfect for you. People who should not watch this? If you don't like magic and stuff, you better stay away. Would you watch the movie again? Sure. Why not? Probably, with a friend.
