  Puss in Boots: The Last Wish 2022

  ★★★★½ Watched 27 Dec 2022

  Delightful movie, much better than the first one. I chuckled several times, the script is well paced, has a sweet message, and several fun gags. A simple friends-we-made-along-the-way plot, but the animation is gorgeous, the big bad wolf makes a great villain.

  Monica, O My Darling 2022

  ★★★★ Watched 12 Nov 2022

  A really fun watch in the Pune-Noir school of filmmaking that Vasan Bala has pioneered. This film twists a bunch of tropes which left me chuckling. It is at times sincere and comically goofy. Borrows from Wes Anderson, Noir, and his previous works like Andhadhun and Mard ko dard nahi hota. Beautiful nostalgic soundtrack. The ending ruined it for me a bit. And the criminal underuse of Radhika Apte who is brilliant.
