Putham Pudhu Kaalai

  Language -Tamil How was it? - From  impressive to okay-ish. A total of five short stories with very rich technical work. Couldn't relate to much of the stories, even the covid circumstances. Great camera work with rich colours and great sound kept me not bugged down. How likely are you to recommend your friend to watch this movie? Not worthy enough of recommendation, is what I feel. My after thoughts Loved the first movie concept and was never kindled by the others. Every time I relate to the characters, there movie ends in a few minutes. Which is sometimes good and sometimes not. People who should watch this? If you are a short film lover and like stories to be short and crisp. People who should not watch this? If you want a full fledged movie watching experience. Would you watch the movie again? Nah. Not again.

Ka pae Ranasingam

   Language -Tamil How was it? -Okay-ish. I got the feel of watching a serial or a documentary at most times. Apart from the story line and the sadness you feel for Aishwarya Rajesh, there is nothing else special. It is also a bit too long of nearly about 3 hours. How likely are you to recommend your friend to watch this movie? Can't think of any of my friends who are going to like this sort of a movie. My after thoughts The poor go through a lot of struggle. All movies showcase this but in this movie, it is a different kind of struggle, which no one should face. It is based on a real story and I really feel for them. How could they do this. People who should watch this? If you like documentary or serialistic movies. An absolute gem for fans of Aishwarya Rajesh. People who should not watch this? If you are expecting a commercial movie, this is not for you. Would you watch the movie again? No. Not my piece of cake.

C u soon

   Language -Malayalam How was it? -Refreshing. A movie intended for the online viewers. Nothing special as of a story line. But, overall it leaves you with an awesome and refreshing viewing experience. How likely are you to recommend your friend to watch this movie? Highly recommended in this lockdown!! My after thoughts I thought Malayalam cinema was special with its location and outdoor surrounding. It is still special even if the whole movie is shot indoors. How did they even think of such an idea? People who should watch this? A genuine Malayalam cinema fan is going to e enjoy the experience. People who should not watch this? I can't get an answer for that. In today's technological world, even though you aren't going to relate to the story, you are not going to be disappointed. Would you watch the movie again? Sure, just before getting to know the real life versions of these characters.

V

   Language -Telugu. How was it? -Okay. Another one of those commercial movie. Nani's twenty-fifth movie it is. And it could have shown more of Nani is what I feel. A top notch hero and villain, an unecessary heroine(Nivetha) and an abligatory flashback(Aditi Rao). Nothing new! How likely are you to recommend your friend to watch this movie? No recommendations. My after thoughts Into the fifth minute and why do I feel like I hear Raatchasan theme music. Why do I compare every suspense thriller to Raatchasan? People who should watch this? Unless you have an amazon prime subscription, I don't know why you have to see this. People who should not watch this? I'm sorry to say this, but if you like Nani, you better avoid this movie and stick with the stills. Would you watch the movie again? Never will I.

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.
