Aakhri Sach (2023)
Well made, could have been better.
In a nutshell, if you had found the Burari case intriguing, this show will not disappoint you.
The screenplay is a nice adoption of the original story where the key details have been preserved while making changes where there was an opportunity to add the fiction angle and also spin a meaningful story. The narration is good and sets up the premise to make you want to pursue the story despite knowing it from the Netflix documentary. While the facts were known, a story is always better when told in a way where you can perceive the psyche of the characters from their own PoV, even if it was actually the director's cut.
The Netflix documentary was really good and actually compliments this show. Without that initial foundation this show wouldn't really have the impact it is meant to have. However, documentaries are just facts and that was what it was in this case too. So a webseries that actually brings those characters to life and makes them narrate their own story..that's the main reason you don't want to miss this.
Overall a good watch, however, some characters haven't done much justice to their roles. And adding unnecessary characters and giving them screen space was a turn off. Nobody is interested in the personal lives of characters other than the victims here, so adding that extra background story for Tamannah's character was totally a filler and deviates the viewer's attention.
K.G.F: Chapter 1 (2018)
Noise and nonsense is what this movie is
If you are literally bored out of your minds, don't mind shelling out money for no reason, are okay with watching pointless violence (termed as action by fans) and listening to absolute ear piercing noise.. I would still suggest you not to go for this movie. That's how bad it is. One of the most poorly knitted story lines I have come across. The movie is just all about projecting the protagonist as omnipotent and giving him unnecessary build up. 15 mins past the starting, I was just desperate to get out of the theater. Except the excellent cinematography (not sarcastic), there is nothing to even consider this as a good watch. All my energy is going into thinking why was so much hype created for this, and why has it been so well received. Very disappointed.
