Bird Box: Barcelona (2023)
A Disgrace to the Original
I watched this movie only for one reason because I thought it would carry the same wave of excitement as the original did. But Akas this turned out to be really really below the bar.
I am not going to mention any spoilers here but would say this that people in this movie didn't know what common sense is and how to at least be alert when all hell breaks loose.
There is background as to why the main lead can do things that others cannot and it just doesn't make any sense. 20 mins into the movie and I was like why the heck did I even bother to watch this and just closed the movie.
Whoever is saying this was better than the original one well those guys need to get their brains scanned for clutter.
Bottom Line: Don't waste your time.
Reo hoad... muean kod ter (2022)
10 Mins In
To be short and to the point without any complicated content angles. The movie has been tagged under Comedy which is a huge to the word comedy itself, I don't why people would do that as this movie has nothing to do with comedy.
I literally sat focused for this movie for 10 long mins, and I was like asleep in my chair. No useful comedy of whatsoever and.
Its just lame and lamer as you watch it.
The people who are rating this 10 may be its high time to get your brains checked as it seems that you have totally lost the meaning of the word movie. Its a cinema that should be a cinema and not a joke.
Knock at the Cabin (2023)
M Knight Oh Dear Oh Dear
I will not get into any details and will be straight to the point. A huge fan of M Night from Sixth Sense and beyond but I must say this to you M that please stop making movies. You have literally lost your touch, or I don't know what really is wrong with you now days. You think you made this a masterpiece sorry to say it is not even good for PG 13 audiences.
The film lacks background story telling no grounds on which the whole plot has been set. The supporting characters have no background stories either. Only information we get from the supporting actors is verbal nothing concrete as per the story plot.
Bottom line a waste of cast members and funds. Batista acting was awesome but a total waste in this movie.
Beast (2022)
A Big Let Down
I would start off by saying sorry guys but it's a huge and literally a thump waste of time. Waste of talent, cinematography, direction and just the story itself. In this movie Lions the most lethal predators in the world seem like a pure dumbass compared to even a pet cat at home.
I wanted to watch this because of Idris Alba but the director made his acting mediocre. There are just too many dumb things that in a time of an emergency and survival you would think to better protect yourself but not in this one folks. It lacks the basics of survival guides itself.
The rest I dont need to explain it's a complete utter let down.
Ambulance (2022)
HUGE Disappointment
I will not give out any spoilers or anything but being a Michael Bay movie fan this was a huge let down. The story starts all guns blazing and I love the different camera angles it brings down on the action but all in vain. The main character when getting into the action is all good and yes to everything but then he grows a dam conscious??? Why would you even agree if that was the case. Then there is no proper stability in the plot line, the villian is shown like a one man show with no proper backup. When the backup finally comes for the bad guy its at the end of the movie so I don't know who sold you this story Michael but it was executed very poorly because the movie had no point in the end.
Texas Chainsaw Massacre (2022)
A Disgrace to the TITLE
I will make it very simple because there is basically nothing to discuss here except this movie is a big disgrace to the name Texas Chainsaw Massacre. The story no problem you wake up 2 people after 50 years of bear hibernation and then a almost 6ft 6inches ( I may be wrong on the height but you you get my point) can jump from one place to another and with speed which is I must phenomenal (sarcastically).
Not only that when the legacy victim has the chance to blow leatherheads head off easily she then gets cold feet and lets him to just come back to be killed and thrown into the dumpster. Who the hell writes that kind of stories. I must say the writer should be chain sawed his hands.
Not only that the main characters when finally kill the guy he again jumps out of no where after drowning in water and then takes the head off the main character. Again to the writer, "What the hell are you trying to do man, make sure this movie never gets remade again???"
Seriously a BIG BIG disappointment.
The Water Man (2020)
A Big Let Down
I will make this as simple as it can in bullet points.
The story started off great but the end execution was very very poor.
My main question to the director is what was the dam moral of the story???I mean I get the whole imagination concept when you are searching for victory and win but I mean we as an audience never got the moral of the story, it was left high and dry.
The child male actor in most of the scenes did over acting for no reason I don't know why?
Great cinematography and effects
At the mid of the movie I was hoping for some great epic storyline twist but nothing happened.
I am giving this 3 stars for the awesome scenery in the movie and the VFX effects.
Crisis (2021)
Could Have Been Great
I will simply put to this instead of going into details. The cast = Great the story good as well but the overall story not good enough. This movie could have been a great action flick with such a heavy A star cast but its just a mediocre movie. Nothing too special or out of the ordinary. If you want to just kill time then do watch it.
Blindsided (2021)
DO NOT WATCH THIS
I cannot even know where to begin with this. The movie started with a promising start and I was hands on deck that this would be a great thriller but literally after the first encounter with the cartels the director just lost it. I mean even teenagers at a high school could have made a much better movie. Bottom line is do not waste your time and by pass this.
Greenland (2020)
Disappointment from the Director & Storyline
Everyone of us enjoys an end of the world thriller just from the genre of the film and specially if it includes a cast like this then it can really turn into something of a legend or keep you at the edge of your seats. Well, Alas, none of these things will happen in this movie. Such a potential cast you are expecting an amazing don't know what will happen next thriller moments but alas your expectations are all run down like a road kill. When writing this story I don't really know what was going through the writers mind but he literally missed on a great opportunity here. This movie should have been made on a real life situation basis how a normal person would react and specially if you are an engineer you would be more proactive in decision making but that's not that the case with this. You are about to board a last flight to be able to get the hell out of the destruction zone and then you see that the medication of your child is gone, never ever trust your kids with these kind of things in the first place keep it with you all essential and vital things and documents because you are the adult here not your kid.
The rest I would say it's just a one time movie but really a disappointment specially if you are expecting something like Olympus has Fallen then don't expect anything like that in this one.
Rogue (2020)
Not up to the Mark
Yes it involves the big name as Megan Fox but there are too many flaws in the movie that could have been avoided and the movie could have been made an EPIC. The cinematography and action are good but at too many places this movie lacked. No solid background foundation of the lead role actor just put the lead in the movie and there it goes off.
One time watch and for some it's not going to be easy as you will be disappointed.
Dil Bechara (2020)
No Doubt A Beauitful Adaptation of the Fault in our Stars
I seriously don't know what to say here, I'm just out of words to express this. This movie was highly emotional to watch knowing that SSR is no more with us. It's a 10/10 from me. The direction was superb, music as the legendary AR Rehman and the direction was flawless.
Flawless acting by SSR and the new comer Sanghi she did an amazing job and she will go places for sure.
Watch it guys you will love it.
Kaal (2005)
Pure Crap of Cinema
The story being good doesn't guarantee a film's success if the story if so good then you need a dam good director to pull it off as well.
In this wanna be Hollywood type fiasco there were unprofessional camera angles shot. I mean if some teenagers had made this movie they would have done a much better job than this. It was literally awful. I was like no this cannot be especially when it's endorsed by high profile actors like SRK. Just to give you an example the scene where the car blows off and the guy is just waiting in there I mean come on for God's sake and then if he does manage to survive the explosion somehow he waits for the dam windshield to come and hit him when there is way plenty of time to simply duck, I mean where the hell are your reflexes??? It is just too awful I simply fast forwarded to the end and deleted the dam thing.
Villains (2019)
Not Worth It
As per other reviews and such I only gave this a 5 star and that was only for the acting part. The story itself is a crap to be honest and simply isn't worth your time to watch it. Made no sense of it and why it was done in this way.
Trauma Center (2019)
Seriously What Was That???
I only gave this 2 stars that is only and only for Bruce Willis. I seriously don't get why the hell did he even do this movie? no proper background information pathetic acting and editing and overall a huge disappointment.
Good Boys (2019)
Great Innocent Fun Time
I would like to hats off to the director and then to the child actors that played in this movie. I mean I know its not a high end story or whatever sometimes these kind of movies are all we need to get together with family or your loved ones.
I literally enjoyed this movies as it reminded me of my childhood friends and what stupid things we used to do they were stupid thing but innocent as well. Time was great and the 90's kids used to do these kind of things. But all in all a fun packed movie with no stunts or any CGI involved. Have your family with you and enjoy this.
Sweetheart (2019)
Decent though it Fails to Impress
To be straight to the point, the acting was great from the main lead actress but sorry to say the monster coming from nowhere and then the Title of the movie I mean come on Netflix you invest in so many great projects this was definitely not a charmer. It's just a one time movie for those who are watching it for the first time. I am giving 5 only for the acting in this from the lead actress.
Joker (2019)
Literally All Hands Down
I just want to be simple and straight forward with this.
Joaquin Phoenix you my dear are a true beauty of a Legend. This a shut up call to all those whoever doubted Joaquin as he has proved to what extent he can go to. I mean this is the MOST awesome and immersive cinema ever. Also the credit goes to the director who had the audience glued to their seats the whole movie time. Hats off for such an amazing movie which will be remembered for ages to come. A must must must watch.
The Verdict - State Vs Nanavati (2019)
Seriously !!!!
Why in the name of sanity would you give this title an above 9 rating. For those who don't know please watch the movie names RUSTOM starring Akshay Kumar. This is a lame remake of the same movie into series for no use. Why the hell would you make a series out of an already made movie seriously ???? The acting and all is fair enough but too much mumbo jumbo in this. The audience are not glued to their seats for this.
The Wedding Guest (2018)
Great Start, Great Acting but Lack of Female Character Background
Just to put in plain and simple words, the start of the movie was brilliant the director right away catches the attention of the audience and they get lured into the storyline. Dev was great no doubt about that but the only issue I have throughout the film was the background of the female lead character (Radhika Apte). The director didn't give out any such information on how the personality of the female lead is and how it would react in situations put before the movie. The rest is brilliant. I do understand one could say on one of the dialogues when Radhika asks Dev can you I trust you and he says No maybe that is the answer but once again that is situational not the background. Anyways its a good movie but the ending as I agree with my fellow watchers could have been great instead of the this then this movie would have done more business guaranteed.
Daughter of the Wolf (2019)
I Feel Sorry for the Production Team
It is not only a waste of time for the viewers but also for the person who produced this. I feel really for the production team that they put in so much effort but the storyline and the acting was not even par.
No proper storyline not background to the wolves and the main actress and being a soldier in the movie she fights like it's a cat fight. Really no skills for the fighting style shown so the viewers could have a little bit of action at least.
Do not watch this period !!!!
Meri Pyaari Bindu (2017)
Hence Proved !!!
As per my subject you can see what I exactly mean. The best thing this film had was the actors so there was nothing less offered from them other than from the storyline itself.
Once again it has been proved in this movie as well that if you are in the friend zone no matter what you do you will never be able to completely win her heart. This movie actually proves it and I don't know whats with the writer's issue is but can't you just tell the truth. Yes, we as audience all love happy endings but this subject is actually very sensitive to a lot of people. Instead of being all good in the end just provide the real truth simple and we all can have some sort of peace of mind.
The guy does so much for this girl all the time being there for her getting his ass kicked or kicking some ass and yet after so much effort and heartbroken pain she still goes for the other one. So once again why do all this for a person who doesn't even properly care for your feelings. It's just not worth it simple as that. All the other stuff A1 I would say but Bollywood needs to be a bit more realistic when it comes to these sort of situations yeah if there is a comedy touch to it than its a different criteria but if you are seriously highlighting an issue like this than a bit more reality side is required as the audience nowadays is not only going to just watch a typical masala movie they want something new and different.
Elysium (2013)
Agreed
As per the review from "lornloxor". I totally will agree with that as much as Matt Damon has raised the bar over the years with his unforgettable movies this was in the end a cold and non attaching movie. It could have been much more intense story wise and the characters could have been more passionate but that depended on the story line.
In the end I would just say that it was an overall entertainment just one time may 2 at the most if one is really willing to but other than that we expect way more from Matt Damon as after the Bourne series his bar is in top of the charts and we would love to see something like that in his coming movies. The rest best of luck with your future movies Matt hope to see you in the same or more intense characters as your Bourne movies.
Peace
Waar (2013)
Vision, Dream, Determination, Motivation, Courage & Passion
If you see this adventure overall it's a THUMBS UP & AGAIN THUMBS UP. Bilal Lashari my friend this work of yours will be remembered in the history of Pakistani cinema no doubt about that. The way you have shown the world and Pakistan what they need to understand is breath taking. You chose every one of your characters perfectly I mean nothing was displaced about your characters whatsoever.
There were a very few moments which I believe you as a director knows as well where some scenes were over sighted but the overall entity of the movie simply made that like a needle in a haystack :). The background score and soundtrack of this movie remarkable and really whatever Pakistani saw this had his adrenaline shooting off the charts I guarantee you that, so best of luck on your future endeavors hopefully I can someday come and join this league of extraordinary gentlemen & creators as well so I can also contribute my visions to the world and Pakistan.
May ALLAH Bless you Keep on rolling ;)
Zanjeer (2013)
Very Very Lame
After seeing this movie I don't get it why such good actors and veterans such as Sanjay Dutt would do this movie seriously whatever the reason maybe it was a waste of their time. The newbie actor should have been given a much better intro than this movie. The writer whatever he wrote wasn't bad enough that the director took the remains of the lameness and sealed up the movie. The direction was very amateur remaking of a classic movie I think that the original makers of the movie must have just fainted.
I need to ask the director myself that in the movie where Ram Charan first encounters with Sanjay Dutt without no reason Ram goes to Sanjay's place and starts fighting like did he have some sort of a preminition or what???? I mean what was that??? that's not direction that a huge flaw. There are many scenes that don't just add up and the whole movie was just a very waste of time. Two item songs were provided which obviously were thought that they will keep the ball rolling but they failed pathetically as for even an item song to go along the story and direction need to support the whole movie.
The rest best of luck to the new actor Ram as you really need to make sure and pick your scripts by really getting into character I know I don't need to teach your acting but this is just a tip but for the director you need to still go through some more direction courses.
