Asur: Welcome to Your Dark Side (2020)
A festival of Plot holes!
#Asur
I have never seen a series with so much plot holes. I just don't want to say anything. Personally I wouldn't recommend a watch! If my friend doesn't recommended or strongly argued for this I could never have watched beyond the second episode! The amateurish direction, over the top acting, lacklustre CGI and beyond believable incompetent investigate officers! I could go on! There was no logic in the storyline whatsoever!
May be there was a good plot somewhere but it was so lost in all those bad things that I found it so hard to find any positive! I can go on forever what's bad in this but bottomline is I didn't liked anything from this, may be the only good episode was the very first episode. After that logic is thrown out of the window and I'm still trying to find what's thrilling!
Super Deluxe (2019)
Bit too experimental
#SuperDeluxe
As a guy who likes experimental movie as much as the next person, this one is a weird movie! To be fair something's in the plot was totally unnecessary and could have been avoided for a little bit more realistic approach. Sorry to go way ahead, this is a good experiment but may be a little bit too experimental to patiently sit and watch at theatre!
So super deluxe is a movie that happens mostly on a day with some stories and events barely intertwined together. There are mainly three stories happening together and how it is resolved forms the crux of the story. The movie shines due to tremendous and good perfomances of its cast. And the movie is clearly very dark with almost all characters having a grey shade. First half of the movie was so good that i didn't feel it was a long half, but second half just shift into a weird turn! I still couldn't get over some of the things they adapted story wise, it may be something writer have to come up with to make a story ends well but really could have been something else and more realistic to make the movie works even better. Believe me you'll understand what I'm saying after watching the movie. It is difficult to speak more about it without spoilers!.
As usual great performance from Vijay Sethupathi. Fahadh was good. And i really liked women in this movie. They were never apologetic about the decisions they made with their life, they know what they needed at the moment and go for it! It's great to see that on any movies. There are many things and philosophies portrayed throughout the movie which can only be discussed with spoilers. So it is a movie worth of discussions.
And in the end it may not be everyone's cup of tea, and may find 3 hour runtime bit of a stretch! But even though i felt a bit lengthy during second half, it is something worth watching once. May be if you're not sure watch it after DVD release but by all means go for it if you love seeing a weird crazy dark movie!
