Baaghi (2016)
Tiger Shroff should look for some other profession.
Okay, So where to start from.
Story - 1/10 (full of cliché, unrealistic and cringe-worthy settings, romance and drama).
Acting - 0/10 (Okay, this is my favourite part. HOW IN THE HELL is Tiger Shroff an actor ? His acting is as good as a wooden stick. Goes to show that how big impact can Surname make in bollywood. And let's not talk about Shraddha Kapoor, literally same attitude and acting in every movie. You can cut out her scenes from any other movie and paste in this movie, you would never notice the difference).
Fighting scenes - 3/10 (Now some people are saying that this movie did good at what it was supposed to do. Not really. It was average at best.)
Overall - 1/10 (The movie is full of clichés, VERY VERY cheap romance and songs, every other person showing off their pecs and abs. Tiger Shroff should really look for some other profession. There are countless number of struggling actors who can act million times better than him. Only positive thing in the movie is fighting sequences, which aren't as good as people are saying. Average at best.)
Batman v Superman: Dawn of Justice (2016)
Sad how much undeserving hate this movie is getting.
I am giving 10/10 because i just want to do my part to push the ratings up, 7.4 rating is a crime against this movie. Although my real rating would be around 8/10.
Now i would be as realistic i can :
Many negative points i read from critics are just laughable, many of them are just pure insults and banters in the name of reviews. For instance, A critic review laughed off Bruce Wayne's workout scene, as the critic thought he was specifically training to fight Superman. Where that scene could have just showed his basic workout, Anyways, there are no workouts for war against a God. I was pretty shocked reading all those popular critics' reviews bashing this movie so much. So please, ignore the critics.
As of what people are saying, you can feel in first half of the movie that the plot is kind of scattered everywhere, I feel it was indeed, bringing down the movie a bit for me, it can be confusing to some people, couple of scenes are randomly put and editing feels bad in first half, Snyder can be blamed at that point. But it's not as bad as it sounds, depends on different individuals. The 2nd half was just magic.
Now when we reach at 2nd half (mostly fights), people are saying that complete CGI ruined the fights. I just want to know, how do you show 3 God- like creatures (WW, Sups and Doomsday) fighting on a TV screen at their full power without relying on CGI ? Anyways, CGI didn't bother me, it's all about the preference. For me, it helped to create some epic fight scenes. 10/10 for fight sequences.
Batman by Ben is just amazing, brutal and worn, and is ACTUALLY scary. Wonder Woman by Gal was just perfect. She really shut up everyone with her acting. Superman was as usual, normal, not bad, not great. Lex.... well, i don't know how he is in the comics, never read them, but in the movie, he was more like Joker. Cameos are small but good and unique, sets up the next upcoming JL. Teasers of next JL are scattered in the movie instead of after credits teaser. So that was good.
People complaining about the dark tone, If it's not your taste, doesn't mean it is bad.
*SPOILER* People shocked at Batman's killing habit. 1) He does not kill like, shooting in the face for funs. 2) The movie is inspired from the comic The Dark Knight returns, but also is the vision of Zack Snyder, so open your minds for more possibilities than what you have read in comics. Not everything stays the same. And i personally like Snyder's version better. As it is more realistic. No man can stay true to 'no killing' rule after the losses he must have suffered in 20 years.
Yes, the name of the movie is bit misleading, there was Batman vs Superman in the movie, but it wasn't the focus. But for me, the title wasn't a lie either. As it also says "Dawn of JL", which it is.
*SPOILERS* People laughing off Batman being Superman's buddy after hearing the word 'Martha'... Grow Up. Think a bit. Not everything should be spoon fed.
Wrapping up the review, it's not Marvel, don't expect Avengers style light hearted wars. This movie is dark, brutal, and human. Editing and story telling can be better, that's only where this movie fails at most. All actors did their job perfectly. If you feel confused at first, give it a 2nd try, as the first half feels rushed. Many people have admitted that 2nd viewing of the movie had them ready for the rush ride, they understood the movie much better. Overall, the movie is one of it's kind in the superhero genre, and a really great watch.
Bãhubali: The Beginning (2015)
Don't be fooled by the rating, that's the magic of fan boys
possible SPOILERS
so, not many people came out of the crowd of sheep that followed Baahubali blindly, just because the movie has better graphics than an average bollywood movie, 250 crore, Hollywood's lowest budget movie can still have better animation works than what this movie had, yes, they did better work than any/most of bollywood movies have done, specially when none of the bollywood movie have done such great work in epic-genre, but 9/10 ? it should be 6-7/10 at best, because, other than graphics, there is not much to be happy about, first of all, songs, seriously ? item song during an assassination scene ? then there is character development, there was none, basically, it seemed like the characters were never introduced before, and were just told to act like they are family, the lead role, fell in love with a girl, just by her mask (a mask that everyone in her tribe wears), if that's not enough logic for you, the Queen, the mother of both protagonist and antagonist, these kind of roles make people believe that women are the reason of big fights, which should not be the case, but the intelligent Queen, puts the competition of throne in between both of her sons when they barely could walk, and from that age, she started putting them through rough competitions to check who is more intelligent, powerful and kind, i could give her a better idea, why not grow them both as her sons, and love them like sons, rather than seeing them as future kings, and grow both of them up as both kind and great characters, now let's move on to action, seems like another bollywood/south Indian action movie, i don't think there was anything extra ordinary in action considering the movie is bollywood's creation, yes the fight between two armies was good, but that's the work of animation, not action/fights scene, many logic defying, physics defying scenes were there, then there are graphics, even though with this budget, they didn't do justice, at some scene, for example the eagle view scene of war, were too stupid looking, some scenes were good, but overall, nothing like a 250 crore movie, but none the less, a step up for bollywood in right direction, but giving a movie 9/10 for that, is basically telling them, that you have done a great job, and we are satisfied with it, which at least i am not, so overall, for me, it is just another bollywood, more like another south Indian movie, with better graphics than what Indian cinema has provided us, stupid character development, no connection between the audience and the characters, other than the question everyone would ask after the climax, which is too huge spoiler to tell. for me, 5/10, at best, 6.5/10, not at all a 9/10, that's for typical Indian fan boys, who want to say that this movie can even try to compete against Hollywood giants, but nonetheless, a step in the right direction.
Kick (2014)
can't believe he is the guy who acted in 'hum aapke hain kaun', 'andaaz apna apna' kind of great movies...
i won't lie, i haven't watched it, i don't know the story, but i can predict what will be in it, and i don't think i will be wrong, some dumb dialogues, dumber stunts, his topless body, flying people, his dumb devil phase, and story copied from south, in last some years, salman's movies are getting sh*t. same old crap in every movie, i don't have any idea how anyone even likes these movies. and these movies break records !!!! these movies break records of 3 idiots !!! thats shame for India. once this guy made 'hum aapke hain kaun', 'andaaz apna apna', 'hum dil de chuke hain sanam', kind of amazaing movies, and now his level has dropped so low, that his every movies is copied, action is copied, he is nothing but a copycat now.
Sixteen (2013)
Great movie, great story.
at first, i thought this is another youth movies which shows party, girls in bikinis to give movie a hype, and just dumb youth kind of movie, but don't think this movie like student of the year, or yaariyan, or kind of rich young brat movies, this movies is the reality, whole movie is sensible, about some friends, how there lives have there bad moments, and how they react in those moments, how they handle themselves, this movie shows how a youth in 21st century lives, how this youth thinks, how this youth is more mature than its age, how we are thinking ahead of our age, this movie is great, story is amazing, i hate how this movie is so underrated, acting overall was great, would love to watch movies like this, a good step from bollywood, good movie,
9/10
Yaariyan (2014)
flop of the century, please don't support himanshu to act in any more movies
you want to watch comedy ? here it is, start this movie, go to its climax, and there you go, the race scene, its full of comedy, although it is supposed to be very serious scene according to the movie, but hats off to worst acting and story writing of the century, it becomes a comedy scene, now with the review, not sure if the writer was a kid, or was sleeping while he wrote this story, but THIS IS THE WORST MOVIE EVER TO GRACE BOLLYWOOD. and the lady directer, how she told proudly that she directed this movie with her new born, well i guess her newborn wrote that story and directed it.
i rate it "-10/10"
