Anything and everything I experience.
Of course I’m taken in by the Money Heist fandom and I’ve written about it before during the previous seasons. Season 5 is around now and all expectations that we had about the story proceeding, action sequences taking off and character arcs developing have seen significant progress; making all of us happy. As much as... Continue Reading →
It’s a positive and a long awaited development that Bollywood is venturing into thematic cinema. Especially into untouched waters with topics like late adulthood pregnancy, same sex relationships and surrogacy. While it still simply cannot refrain from dramatization, the progress is evident and more and more film makers are venturing into socially important themes lately.... Continue Reading →
American reality TV never disappoints if you’re looking for cheap thrills and with this show they’ve quite outdone themselves. Put together every cliché aspect of a cheap thrill – love, looks, an exotic location, romantic drama, a funny and engaging narrator, a whole lot of sex and voila – you have one of the most...

We’d have different parameters to classifying a show/movie into our favourite list. While I have a couple of things I look for to categorize them, generally the ones that don’t flinch from executing ruthless, edgy scripts are my easy favourites. I’ve watched enough of them to begin predicting what happens next in most cases but... Continue Reading →
I didn’t realize it had been a while since I had literally laughed out loud and evidently enjoyed a movie because I’ve been hung up on period dramas and old romantic movies for a while. I’ve hardly been one to thoroughly enjoy modern day comedies or rom-coms unless I’ve only watched them to unwind. Sure,... Continue Reading →
Period drama movies are for me the most addictive kind of movies. You watch one or two period dramas on Netflix and then you only look for more options like them on your OTT. The appeal of historic recreations is unmatched in any other kind of movie. Dramatization of historic events and their romantic presentation... Continue Reading →
Leo Tolstoy’s worlds are beautiful and elaborate, and pick out on the minute details of Russian high society. More so the pretentious and elite shenanigans of the same. How he is that efficient at pin pointing the entitled details behind the elite behaviour, he alone knows. Anna Karenina is one example for the same, making... Continue Reading →
I picked a random feel good movie on the Netflix suggest list and landed on the 2011 comedy Bridesmaids. And then I looked into what the internet had to say about it because the cast was interesting and it came out at an interesting time (just about the time Hangover came out). There’s some fuss...

If you are a fan of rom-coms, you always know what to expect. We can list out the traditional must-have elements of a rom-com that include a boy and a girl falling in love (well duh), a rather simple inconvenience that causes some temporary distance between them, a hearty family or a group of friends...

The Tourist on Netflix is one ‘big brand’ movie where you possibly cannot ask for a better setup. With a cast like Johnny Depp and Angelina Jolie, with Oscar winning Director Florian Henckel Donnersmarck, an outrageous plot and an aesthetic backdrop of Paris and Venice, The Tourist actually could have been a mind-blowing blockbuster that...
