Laal Singh Chadda

Laal Singh Chaddha

Rating: 3 Star ⭐️ ⭐️⭐️

Brilliant 1st half , crash landing 2nd half ,Overall a feel good average movie

POSITIVES: 

The film does have bright shining moments , hilarious moments , emotional moments making you go teary eyed , mind blowing timeline of events starting from emergency , Kargil War , operation bluestar , & Mumbai Blasts and finally a sweet love story brewing beween Rupa & Laal Singh Chaddha. First half is a rollercoaster ride on journey of Laal Singh from his childhood , Shahrukh Khan’s cameo comes as a surprise in between the first half where he is seen in his young avatar and laal singh taking credit of his signature pose . The war scenes are well directed , VFX is top notch , digital deaging is well managed for the characters specially Aamir & Kareena , cinematography is lovely & delight to watch, Background Score is soothing and gives a classic touch to the movie all through , Music is lovely specially the song Kahani . Aamir Khan has done a decent job kudos to him on the preps with his looks ,rest follows the ensemble cast Naga Chaitanya could have had a better role as after a point the chaddi banyan joke gets too much overused, Special Mentions for Mona Singh she has lived the character , Kareena Kapoor has been amazing and also looks pretty in the movie . 

NEGATIVES: 

2nd half of the movie just crash lands the film to be boring and dragged , editing is also to be blamed as the scenes get exaggerated  beyond a point , there are few scenes that lite up the 2nd half but there are more scenes that make it a boredom , Aamir Khans Hmmm tone gets into your head , the love story angle gets repetitive , Climax of the film could have been better written the last 10 to 15 mins feel soo unnecessary and heavily dragged .

FINAL VERDICT

Without any comparison to the original i should say this is an average movie which brings in a soothing feel good wala feeling , the film has its share of amazing moments as well as dragged moments, only if you can adjust with the boredom in 2nd half and length of the film then go for it , it has refreshing moments , it has emotional moments , it has inspiring moments and a soothing love story as an whole package.

Rating: 3.5 Star ⭐️⭐️⭐️.5

A Solid Movie with a solid message stitched with brilliant performances 

The film is a dark comedy which takes on domestic violence with a in depth portrayal, the characters are well written , screenplay is simple and the plot keeps you engaged in the film with low, high & fun moments . The duo of Shefali Shah & Alia Bhatt is killer and they have just been mind-blowing in the film from the start to its end , Vijay as Hamza is so natural and raw , he has deep dived  into the character and you will hate him for what he is , that is the convection with which he has played his role , he definitely deserves a award for this  , rest follows the ensemble cast ,dialogues are well written , there is suspense factor so as to what will happen next . The film is unpredictable and touches your heart , it has a strong note worthy message . what could be improved is a little editing where some dragged scenes could have been chopped to make it even more smoother, but this is easily overlooked for the overall experience if this strong film , the chawl life of Mumbai is well depicted . All and all this is a movie you shouldn’t miss watching , its something different and a well made film with a super strong message as takeaway . You will love this movie , you will get emotional , you will laugh and finally you will love this movie . This ones a worth watch .

Ek Villain Returns

Ek Villain Returns 

Rating : 1 Star ⭐️ 

Only one word for the film KUCH-BHI 

This is the sequel to the successful film Ek Villain , but this film has not even 1% vibe of the 1st part , the film just makes you go mad with everything random happening , Arjun Kapoor seems like he is on a vacation and acting for timepass , there is no depth to his role and he has overacted throughout the film . First half is totally flat and boring , 2nd half somewhere brings in a curious moment to guess the killer but soon fades off with pathetic writing and one of the worst climax where you question yourself “Yeh Kya tha , Yeh Maine Kya Dekh Liya “  Disha Patani lives just on the glamour quotient and her character in the film is strange, Tara Sutaria has been average , Finally coming to John Abraham as usual he does the action right and some body flaunting other than that there is no acting found anywhere in the film . The screenplay & plot of the film is just unbearable and can count among the funny thrillers of Bollywood . All and all its a film that can be easily missed out with no regrets . A sequel that was never supposed to be made and i do not recommend watching this .

Rating : 4 Star ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

Binge Watch : Totally 

A beautiful and relatable drama on corporate life away from the roots  and home coming 

The whole series has a realistic touch and a relateability factor that drives it , the way a story of a corporate employee leaving his roots working in other city sees his world turn upside down when he is sacked and returns home is beautifully portrayed , the further journey of rediscovering himself in his hometown , reuniting with his family like never before and a growing attachment towards his home is something we all can relate to instantly . All the actors have done immensely great job ,Vishal Vashista has been amazing & raw all through as the main lead Akansha Thakur as the the female lead has also done a great job rest follows the complete ensemble cast who have just taken the whole series to the next level .  By the end of the series you wish there were more episodes , its just soo refreshing it has emotion, love , family drama , family issues & fights , redemption and the realistic touch to its story in our lives . You will totally love watching this on binge mode and it keeps getting interesting with every episode . Watch Ghar Vapsi on Disney Hotstar its totally recommended watch

Outdated film with dead humour 

This film is plain predictable and drives on a thin-line plot ,screenplay is poorly written and has lag which makes you bored by the mid of the film . Dialogues are not that great , the humour feels forced . Jhanvi Kapoor performance is not upto the mark , she has been dull with the expressions , Deepak Dobriyal is usually one of the finest actor but the role given to him in this film is pathetic , the humour feels totally forced and  caricaturist . Mitha vasist has performed well as the mother . Film as an whole feels hodge podged , overall not upto the mark and not a recommended watch .
