Mad God (2022) - Rated 09 Aug 2025
"I am entirely unsure of what sense I make of this movie or if there is any sense to be made. It is however unlikely anything I've seen (emphasis on seen, again unsure of anything to do with """plot""") and every still is worth pausing to admire. But again, I have no clue what goes overall and I'm happy enough with what I've taken away."
Manthan (1976) - Rated 03 Aug 2025
"There are just so many dimensions of inequality and power balances at display here that I've never seen covered in a film depicting Indian society. I was staggered for the latter half and it really plays into its message of self-rule and self-sufficiency admirably. The film doesn't go out of its way always to criticize every form of power imbalance but it is implicit throughout how problems arise from such and to be honest this performance really helps me appreciate naseeruddin that much more."
Perfect Days (2023) - Rated 02 Aug 2025
Gurren Lagann The Movie: The Lights in the Sky are Stars (2009) - Rated 02 Aug 2025
Contratiempo (2016) - Rated 02 Aug 2025
Bramayugam (2024) - Rated 18 Jul 2025
"Stellar acting from the primary antagonist, the movie is slow in places but it's a forgivable sin for being so atmospheric and well done overall. Excellent example of Indian folklore-ish horror, excited to see more like this."
Superman (2025) - Rated 17 Jul 2025
"This has some immaculately done action scenes, all around it has the look of a highly polished movie and it usually keeps the humour to a reasonable level. All strong points for me to rate this highly but the story is just so incredibly lacklustre, it's like the top coat has been done perfectly but the actual wall was constructed with toothpicks. I'm really unimpressed by the story, so this evens out to a median rating,"
Alien (1979) - Rated 01 Jul 2025
"Timeless. This is only a little younger than my mother but we'd both believe it if it came out yesterday. Tightly packed, everything of significance and the score and the sets and the effects and on and on and on and everything's perfect."
KPop Demon Hunters (2025) - Rated 01 Jul 2025
"I love the sony animation studio and the animated spiderverse movies are some of my favourite full stop, that said, I don't really feel part of the target audience for this movie. They've done a really good job at making it not just cater to some specific niche but comparing it to any other random movie, the writing is just good enough, extremely cliched and dressed up nicely enough to mostly forget about it. The sequences, expressions (barring a few) and overall flow was solid."
5 Centimeters per Second (2007) - Rated 27 Jun 2025
