Inheritance (2020)
Saving you about 2 hours! avoid this movie
I should have at least looked at the ratings and could have done something else or watched some other movie.
I have a high tolerance when it comes to movies. But this one, not so. The movie had good potential. Firs the cast of Lily Colins as a DA doesn't fit. End of the moview she looked and acted like a teenager.
The movie has many loop holes. I usually don't write anythign that would let out or be considered as spoiles. But I am saving you two hours, so that is ok.
The Dad get's poisoned ... would he not call emergency line? For a high profile person like that to just die .. wouldn't there be investigation on cause of death? The father doesn't leave much for the daughter but leads her to the captive .. why? There was nothing that the captive had to give to the family - information or such. Why would he endanger his daughter. The best one is why would a DA, who was shown to be strong in her field, just believe someone who has been captive for 30 years by her father not be vindictive or want revenge? There are many more but .. hopefully this turns you any inclination to watch the movie.
The only two actors that fitted the roles and did a good job was Simon Pegg and the Lawyer. Lilly Collins, Mom, brother, husband .. all seemed like b-grade movie acting.
Dhokha: Round D Corner (2022)
Could have been better, but still ok to watch
Has a very narrow story line. Setup in just almost one location, movie focuses only on the story with not many distractions.
Does keep you guessing. It definitely had a potential to great movie. Khushali kumar has acted ok and so did the inspector, strangely Madhavan was very bland. Acting is an area where the movie could have done better.
If you are pressed for time and watch only the best of best then this is not a movie for you. But if you are like me who wants to try different type of movies and like to watch more movies than average person, perhaps you will like this one.
There are some heavy negative reviews, this is not if you are a connesieur. Ok for a streaming service price .. certainly not a movie that you would want to go and watch in theater!
Pathaan (2023)
Save your time watch something more meaningful
This is the Indian attempt to replicate Western action movies .. James Bond like. Whereas the broad story is good, the movie is pretty much predictable, although there are couple of good twists. SRK doesn't fit in such action movies. Not sure why there is so much hype about it. Not go give away, someone unexpected shows up in during the movie .. and now in the other movies of that hero, SRK will show up! He made a promise that he will!
I felt that something was amiss in the flow. Could have been better if they had kept it short and cut out some childish one liners and situations. Even if you like action movies, some in these movie, will you have your hand on your forehead! For instance the helipcopter escape in the begining of the movie is outrageous!
If you have time to waste .. ok go ahead and waste it .. but just don't please watch and spend money and time just because SRK is in the movie.
RRR (Rise Roar Revolt) (2022)
Overhyped. Not for you if want a realistic movie
One of those movies that has a very low standard deviation on ratings .. either it is on the lower end or higher.
If you can keep logic and rational thinking out before you start watching, perhaps you may like it. If you have 3 hours of time that you are willing to wast, perhaps you may like it. If you are willing to watch some CGI that don't look realistic, perhaps you may like it. If you are ok with below par Hindi audio dubbing, perhaps you may like it. If you are ok watching a movie with pretty narrow theme, perhaps you may like it.
I hope it doesn't get nominated for Oscar. It would be an embarrasment!
K.G.F: Chapter 1 (2018)
Shortest review
When I woke up, the movie was over! Oh btw the reason it has either 1 rating or 10 ... is this is an Indian John Wick movie ... you like or you hate it.
