Ponman 2025
A simple plot handled in a very straight-forward way. No drama, No plot twists, No mind games, just a raw story - as it is, brilliantly executed. A man's pride and ego mixed with the many realities of being poor in this capitalist world, and also how that reality is different for both men and women. A textbook example of intersectionality created by capitalism and patriarchy.
Another W for Basil, he's on a generational run right now.

All We Imagine as Light 2024
Told the story of women, from an entirely female perspective. It is sad that a movie like this, which amplifies personification of women in society was used to objectify them instead, by the sex-starved mallu (and, by extension, Indian) populace, thanks to a few scenes depicting the female body.

Wonderful job, Payal. Looking forward to more works from her. Should…

Train to Busan 2016
Took a new jiocinema subscription, saw this on the homepage, and felt like watching it. So I just watched it in the horrible english dub, since korean was unavailable and I was too lazy to search for the sub. Gotta say, even with the sub-par dub, the movie delivered powerful emotions. Seriously, they were butchering the hell out of each and every dialogue, but this still felt like a 5/5. If that's not cinema, then I don't know what is!
ps- felt the ending would have been better if everyone just died. those two should have been shot down. But that's just me I guess 🤷🏻

Rifle Club 2024
Ashiq Abu banger after such a long time.
Really good first half with peak buildup, and smooth delivery in second half.One could argue the second half could have been 'better' with more frontal combat and ammo downpour considering the peak buildup, but I believe doing so would stray away from the core concept of the film.
Keep in mind, the members of the Rifle Club are hunters, not soldiers. The film stays true to the club's ideology of hunting,…Translated from by
