    Watched with ramya.

    Half star for the very well done VFX -- everything else was so bad. I hope this was a money laundering exercise.

    Watched with ramya.

    I liked this movie, but I do feel like it could've been better. Of course, when you base it off a true story (and one that's been documented on film!), you can't take as many creative liberties as you'd have liked.

    I enjoyed the acting throughout. Adarsh Gourav (my Hostel Daze goat) was pretty convincing, although I would've appreciated some change in his looks over the years.

    Shashank Arora was cast well for this too.

    A note…

    ★★

    Watched with ramya.

    I didn't understand this movie. Kieran's acting was good, but nothing we haven't seen him do before.

    I don't understand the tone of the movie at all. The airport bit flew over my head (although the last shot of the movie was beautiful, I'll admit). The bits about Jesse/David having OCD felt too forced.

    Another reviewer put it quite well -- somehow, Jewish suffering seems to be the only one that counts. Questionable political environment at best to release this.

    I accidentally confessed at a house party in Bombay that I liked Laapata Ladies over AWIAS and they took me out back and shot me in the head
