  Saving Private Ryan 1998

  ★★★½ Watched 22 Feb 2025

  The scale at which this movie was made left me in awe. The set peices in each shot are amazing and it carries us all the way to the time of world war. It didn't back off in potraying the brutal consequences of a war, making each scene hit hard with its raw honesty. The action sequences are so real that it can easily be served as real life war scenarios.
  That said. It loses its pace in some places…

  Game Changer 2025

  ★★ Watched 12 Jan 2025

  This is a movie of maniacs, watched only by maniacs directed by another maniac. This is a commercial movie beyond limits that forgets to care about the audience. The screenplay is very bad and logic completely goes out door. Comedy also doesn't work well.
  The only positives in this film are some rocking action scenes and performances of Ram Charan, SJ Suryah. Kiara Advani is as stunning as ever.
  Finally, this is a hero-centric film that doesn't mind being narcissistic in many places.

  Kaathal - The Core 2023

  ★★★★ Watched 08 Sep 2024

  This movie gave me an insight into the whole concept of homosexuality. It tries to narrate the story of an obscure middle aged man set against a backdrop of a close-knit community, who struggles to find his identity. Hat's off to Mammootty who pulled this off in a society that is hostile to the subject.
  The final 30 minutes just breaks you in a beautiful way. The bgm is pleasant and endearing.

  Ugly 2013

  ★★★½ Watched 01 Sep 2024

  The characters in this story are well-written, and they're so natural that they make you forget they're actors. Even though this is a thriller, what Anurag Kashyap really does is explore the dark moral psyche of humans, which makes this movie much more interesting. It keeps you gripped from start to finish.
