Everything Everywhere All at Once (2022)
Profound
Is it possible for a movie to completely change your perspective on life and make you question just how you have been living yours up until this point? Because this might just have. It might be the fresh afterglow of having just seen it and I might go back to same ol' life tomorrow morning but boy does it affect you! It FEELS like it's complicated but it's not. It's so well made and simple yet profound at the same time. Hats off to everyone involved. It's evident how The entire cast and crew have given it their all, a true labour of love. Special shoutout to Stephanie Hsu who is as brilliant here as she was in Mrs. Maisel.
Hum Hain Rahi Pyar Ke (1993)
One of Juhi's best
Just watched it again today on a slow Sunday afternoon with the family, after over 20 years. I was surprised how well it has held up compared to most early 90s movies. It's still as enjoyable as ever, with genuine funny moments and often pulls at your heartstrings as well. Juhi is the star of this film without a doubt. I have often lamented the fact that as Amazing an actress she is, she never really got her due from the industry in terms of meaty roles which allow her to show off her acting chops. This is one of the exceptions where she shines and we get to see her full range of emotions. Though mostly it's her comedic side which has been highlighted here, in the 2nd half the pain and anguish of unrequited love of her character beautifully comes across through her earnest portrayal, especially in the song "wo meri neend". Only the first few minutes and the OTT climax pull you out of it and remind you that you are watching a dated 90s movie but otherwise it holds up pretty well and made for a fun watch.
As We See It (2022)
Brilliant random find on Amazon prime video!
I had a couple of hours to kill and was browsing through my prime video suggestions when this show popped up. Since it had only 8 episodes of less than 40 min length and the premise sounded interesting I thought I'll give it a shot. Didn't know any of the actors. But ended up bingr watching the entire series! It is brilliantly acted, moving, funny, empathetic, considerate and doesn't preach or pontify. It's just a story of real people who exist among us in society, just "as they see it". Definitely do watch it.
Good Newwz (2019)
Meh
A few decent laughs and genuinely touching moments here and there but the direct ripping off of scenes, situations and exact dialogues from FRIENDS, especially towards the beginning, really threw me off and took me out of it. A much better film could've been made out of an interesting premise.
