    The Zone of Interest

    ★★★★

    Without shoving it directly to your face this movie puts you in situation that makes you feel everything the characters feel.
    It draws you in totally. You feel right there within the calmness of family while the evil and chaos rages in background!

    This film serves you with oddly curated approach to realistic cinematography that grows along with score/sound design which haunts you throughout the film. Ever-present symbolism and experimental shots backed with metaphors makes this work a true art. 

    2023 was surely Sandra Hüller’s year !

  • Three of Us

    Three of Us

    ★★★★

    shayad bachapan mein dil bada hota hai toh har jagah badi lagti hai!! 

    Its a beautiful feeling and privilege to remember things, to hold onto nostalgia. To go back to it, relive and relove yet again like the very first time (origin). After-all we complicate whatever happy or sad situation we are living as of now and its very human thing too. 

    This movie is a gentle reminder to love whatever and whoever we are with. Some movies are so beautiful you don't talk about aspects of it but just engrave them in your heart forever.

    Vikrant Massey’s exceptional performance is worth sobbing over. 

    Truly motivating.

    Jigarthanda DoubleX

    ★★★½

    My very first tamil-western 👀 , surely a Clint Eastwood tribute. 

    I stepped into it without any clue and I haven’t watched the first Jigarthanda movie. 
    Despite everything this is a fun ride, perhaps the best indian film i have seen this year. 

    Well hardcore critics might find this movie overly done but it’s a gentle reminder towards the love of cinema and craft of film making.
