Death Note: Desu nôto (2006)
Jaw dropping artistry at display
One of the most nerve racking and spine chilling anime available, which is just amazing and soo much better than the hype that it deserves 100%. this is much more than an anime, this is like a chess game between 2 overtly intelligent and superior individuals which will go end to end to defeat each other and be resilient to win. the anime has universal themes and after watching this magnificent masterpiece, you will be left with contemplating the age old question does end justify the means?, and trust me when I say, the moral dilemma of contemplating the answer to the aforementioned question will drive you for wanting more and more and each turn, you will be left just amazed and shocked at primordial turn the characters take in order to arrive at the particular point.
La casa de papel (2017)
Entertainment at the highest level
One of the most exhilarating, breath taking and jaw dropping series available. The action moments in the series is one of the most thriller based emotionally heavy scenes that you can expect in television today. I'll rather have the enormous popularity and ground breaking critical acclaim speak for itself. Its a modern revelation which gave a new life to a genre that had been under seize for quite a while, i.e. heist genre, this series gave a new life to this genre, which resonate universal themes across the world.
Dil Bechara (2020)
A farewell we deserve....
For generations Cinema has been classifies as either a form of Entertainment or as an art form but cinema is much more than art or as a means of Entertainment, this movie proves, cinema can be a therapeutic experience, a means to heal past wounds. I was resistant to watch this movie at first because I knew the end product would be me in tears but I finally caught up with my fears and saw this amazing extra ordinary resilient film, which just felt like much more than a regular tribute, it was one last final farewell that we deserve. I could go on and on about masterful performance delivered by hauntingly charming and ever loving SSR, but I would rather have the magnificent aroma of his performance speak for itself.
2001: A Space Odyssey (1968)
Its not a movie... Its a cinematic voyage
Generally, movies are made of 3 acts, beginning, middle and end. Beginning has introduction, plot device and inciting incident, Middle has Building up to a climactic incident, plot exploration and ending has the big reveal, the main reason for staying in a movie theatre for 2-3 hours. Stanely Kubrick with 2001, threw all of these rules aside and created a cinematic experience which cannot be transcended in any form or described with any words. What Kubrick did with 2001, was created a new form of reason, a reason for the audiences and viewers to stay for a movie, which did'nt had anything to stay for, no reveal, no plot device, no inciting incident tin the introduction, basically no storyline.. but audiences and viewers across the world stayed, this is because of what Kubrick created - Cinematic hypnotism.
2001 is not an avg movie with beginning, middle and end, it is a cinematic experience which hypnotises the viewers to stay for more, it is a form of poetry which can only be influenced through the medium of cinema. I could go on and on about the cinematic visual set pices, the landscape of creating the raw hypnotic atmosphere of space, the extraordinary sound design, the jaw dropping visual effects and so on.
what Kubrick created was not just a typical space adventure movie, it was an exploration of ideas and philosophy of how mankind has progressed in both cinematic terms and in realist term, which will left the viewers wanting more and more of whatever they saw. the images, the sound they will never forget in the entirety of their life -- that's what the genius of Kubrick created, giving birth to an entire new art form in cinema's history - experimental filmmaking
Oldeuboi (2003)
if I could assign it a 11/10 I would have ... trust me....
There are very movies that deserves to be called as a masterpiece and calling this work of art as a masterpiece does not do this movie justice. This is perfection in its rawest form, art in its most purest form presented in a long long time, after watching which, you will contemplate the ending for days or even months to come. I don't know if I can assign a genre to this movie, if its a thriller it is the best thriller that anyone has ever made, if its a revenge action flick, its the best revenge action flick that anyone has ever made. And the ending, literally, the most jaw dropping, mind bending climax I have ever witness in the history of cinema. I cannot shower enough praise due to the limitations provided by the alphabets in the English language which prohibits me to describe this masterful of a work in just 26 alphabets, its impossible for me to convey something this beautiful, this magnificent with just words. But lets not restrict art by assigning a numeric representation or alphabetical description and just enjoy this art in its purest and truest form.
The Gentlemen (2019)
Entertainment level through the roof...
This is guy Ritchie's best work since Snatch probably. There is nothing more satisfying and appeasing than watching Matthew McConaughey be Matthew McConaughey and just go crazy, but the real treat of this film are Charlie Hunam and Collin Farrell, they are just perfect. With incredible witty and sharp dialogues, as expected from guy Ritchie, rapid editing, quick montage and impeccable comedic timing from all of his actors, it makes the viewing experience so perfect and so entertaining.
The Boys (2019)
Just plain old UNIQUE and sooooo entertaining
One of the most entertaining and clever series currently available on television. Now that the whole superhero genre has taken over Hollywood and we are getting plain cgi fest, which generally lacks key storytelling elements, its so refreshing to watch something that is so unique and thought provoking and just plain old entertaining. From acting, to storytelling, to action sequences, to comedic timing everything is just so perfect that will want you to wanting more of this.
Lucifer (2016)
Pure entertainment
Tom ellis
I don't think I need to say anything else. Masterful, scene stealing performance from Tom Ellis as Lucifer Morningstar is the base of the show, everything else is just cherry on top of the proverbial milkshake. the show lay on his charismatic performance and his chemistry between other characters. On an entertainment level, its just plain old brilliant, the story may drag couple of times especially season3 but after Netflix took over the show, to just pure entertainment. Even when, the story starts to drag, the performance of tom ellis is such which will keep for wanting more.
Dark (2017)
A Visual Voyage
This is hands down, one of the most mind bending, exhilarating and simply brilliant shows, you will find in television. On a story telling this is nothing short of a groundbreaking revelation that audiences and filmmakers around the world will study for decades to come. Never have I ever seen a visual voyage like this where everything is just perfect, from cinematography to sound design to writing and of course acting. Luis Hofman delivers master class in acting in this series. it is so rare to watch a series on this scale, so meticulously crafted and presented on such a jaw dropping, awe grappling scale that will keep the viewers attention from the gauge of a needle drop to mystical scientific revelation that is purely and utterly mind bending.
Star Wars: Episode IX - The Rise of Skywalker (2019)
Here goes my childhood................
I wanted this movie to be good, at lest memorable.. I only truly cared about 4 things that came this year, endgame, joker, game of throne and this.. truly wanted this movie to be good.. to be perfect.. because it was ending the biggest movie saga of all time, the emotions and memories attached to this saga was extremely high. There was no way that this movie was gonna please all the nerd fandom from fans and critics but if marvel can pull off, star wars can also... that was the assumption. But what happened... the movie is utter garbage... which ruined my childhood.
it's not just fanboy ranting, there are good things about this movie as well as things i did not wanted to see like ever..
lets start with the good things:
1. John williams score-- which was just awesome, it gave me shivers and filled me with nostalgia..
2. Babu frik: i dont think i have to say anything more than his name... he is awesome.. just excellent...
3. acting: the acting was spot on especially adam driver's
4. Nostalgia : Watching my favorite characters again gave me chills, weather it;s harrison ford or mark hamil or carrie fischer or lando or even the emperor himself. it was just awesome
now the part which i don't want to watch like ever
1. nostalgia and fan service- I'm generally fine with fan service that is done right but here, it's not even service it's garbage.. it's like a toddler throwing things around.... and this makes the movie like a cash grab
and i believe this franchise is more than just cash grab..
with the death of this trilogy.. my childhood died with despair...
thanks disney for this cluster of a movie
The Witcher (2019)
wanna be game of thrones
The series feels like it's trying v hard to be game of thrones but it lacks all the charisma to be on that level. The series has a stark contrast from the source material. the best thing of the series is it;s lead henry cavil, who is magnificent on screen and will definitely grab your attention from it;s first scene. the story is a slow burn and definitely requires attention for the audience to proceed ahead but it pays off in the end.
1917 (2019)
Riveting, hauntingly beautiful and mesmerizing
The entire movie made to look like it's shot at one single take, this is possible because of extraordinary talented 14 times Academy Award nominee cinematographer Roger Deakins. This man is a genius, the movie is shot beautifully. it is mesmerizing to a watch world war 1 movie like it is happening right in front of you. The pacing is phenomenal. The only real flaw in the movie is that there are no great character building movements like other war movies but that is also intentional because, the main intention or motive is to save lives and not focus on characters in the movie and that works.
Uncut Gems (2019)
Sandler's best performance yet
This might be Adam Sandler's best movie yet. It's a character study of a person who has lost everything in his life. The casting is perfect, Adam Sandler is so likable that you will find yourself rooting for him knowing that he is a gone case. The narrative is so perfect that i find myself ignoring his arrogance, foolishness and insecurity, i just wanted him to win... and that's something..
Portrait de la jeune fille en feu (2019)
A love letter to art....
A cinematic triumph filled with extraordinary performances and eye catching cinematography, which ferociously deals with the meaning art in our lives. The movie signifies the importance of art and what art represents in our life. The director beautifully tells a story about artistic love through a medium of art (cinema).
The Crown (2016)
A royal treat in acting
Extraordinary talented pool of actors , historical accurate plot, cunning cinematography,and gripping nerve racking dialogues -- this is season 3. Olivia Colmen and Helna bonham Carter gives performances that will give you master class in acting, this might be their career best performances which tells a lot about these academy award nominated and winner artists.

A western in Space
Imagine Western in space -- what is what this latest creation is A Western in Space. It's mesmerizing, hands down one of the best series in the star wars saga.

hands down... this is the best contribution to the star wars saga in a long time
The Irishman (2019)
Masterclass in acting and directing... hats off....
3 and a half hours of De niro, Pesci and pacino ina film directed by Scorsese... what is there to say.. it's magnificent, cinematic wonder. The pacing is phenomenal and that's why run time of the movie is not gonna be an issue. The performances in the movie is electric, i mean it will take your breath away especially watching de niro and pesci act together in a scene, it's pure gold.
Talent on screen and extraordinary talent behind the scene makes this a complete masterpiece. Watching the trio act together will give all cinephile goosebumps.
it's just legendary..
Roma (2018)
Flawless... Visually stunning
A Foreign language film (Spanish), shot in black n white, with no star studded cast, presented in netflix --- that doesn't sound appealing but alfonso cuaron's creation will hook you from the opening shot. The movie is an emotional roller coaster ride, with stunning performances and masterful cinematography, all of these elements makes roma - a flawless , near perfect masterpiece which wraps up socio-political construct of a society. The movie in it's purest form is a deconstruction of our society.
Jojo Rabbit (2019)
Fantastic and urgent need for such film making
Taika Waititi's latest creation delivers what i consider is a masterpiece. Incredible, fantastic and moving performances delivered by phenomenal actors on screen which will stay with u for a long time. The movie by no means try to preach or deliver a message. What it is trying is to bring about is foolishness of Nazism or Hitler. The movie in no way is trying to ridicule the atrocities of the second world war but it tries to ridicule the concept of hate or Nazism by the means of satire. Taika uses satire to tackle or visualizes the atrocities committed by Nazi. The best way to deal with grief is Satire....
Knives Out (2019)
Brilliant... Most entertaining film i have seen all this year......
Rian Johnson's latest creation brings life to a genre that is dead - murder mystery thriller. The talent on screen captures the narrative, with sharp and witty dialogue, perfect directing and incredible pool of talented actors especially Danniel Craig, it makes this movie phenomenal and entertaining. It is the most entertaining movie i have seen all year.The main highlight of the movie is Danniel Craig's scene stealing performance which capture your imagination..
Pulp Fiction (1994)
One of the most impactful, entertaining and mesmerizing movies i have ever seen in my life
Pulp fiction is a type of movie which makes a strong argument for the case that cinema is both art and entertainment. Pulp fiction is a highly entertaining movie filled with extra ordinary performances, talented actors and a very intelligent script. That's not to say that it is not an artistic cinema, today, the movie stands as one of the greatest movie ever made. With non linear narrative, powerful performances, excellent score and memorable dialogues which will stay with u forever, pulp fiction qualifies the rigorous beauty that is cinema..
Once Upon a Time in... Hollywood (2019)
A true auteur
Quentin Tarantino is a genius. Once a upon a time in hollywood takes advantage of it's bankable and supremely talented actors. The chemistry between Leo and Brad, combination with Tarantino's intelligent writing and amazing camera work, makes it a unique and creative experience. The movie banks on it's extra ordinary star, especially brad, who is just amazing. The final act is one of the tarantino's best pay off ever filmed.
