Another Netflix film which doesn't disappoint and makes proper usage of NF regulars Nawazuddin Siddiqui and Radhika Apte. A splendid South Asia-based whodunit and another worthy entry in India's high-quality police procedural movies. The only flaw I could detect is its uneven pacing. But it is nevertheless one of 2020's best releases.

The Rating: 3.5 out of 4.

Former child star Blanche Hudson, who is now paralyzed after an accident, is confined in a mansion by her sister Jane, who blames Blanche for her unsuccessful career. Jane wants revenge by torturing Blanche mentally and not letting her connect with the outside world. Now, Blanche needs to find help getting out of her sister's clutches.

This is one of the greatest thrillers I have ever seen in my life. Period. What a classic! The off-screen rivalry between Bette Davis and Joan Crawford makes it's way in the silver screen and what we get to see is a magnificent classic.

Great acting from both the stars and a solid script is what makes this a legendary movie. Can't praise this movie enough. If you haven't seen this, then you don't have any right to call yourself a horror-thriller fan. Just kidding 😁 if you haven't, then go and watch this now!

The main issue is Kilgrave raised the stakes too darn high in season 1 and any follow up after which didn't rise to the same level was bound to feel anticlimactic. Also, the main male antagonist was rather dumb and pathetic. Having said all that, I really like the idea of power and its seeking and that the season was premised on speaking a various kind of 'truth to power'. 

Season 1: HINDI LANGUAGE VIDEO REVIEWSeason 2: HINDI LANGUAGE VIDEO REVIEWSeason 3: HINDI LANGUAGE VIDEO REVIEW
The women of the show are all powerful beings, while the men are significantly castrated and helpless, including the main male antagonist. Even the sidekick male superhero is subservient to virtually every female character in the show, including his own sister. It was fascinating watching it all unfold. 

By the end Krysten Ritter and Carrie-Anne Moss  had really won me over with their tremendous acting. Carrie-Anne could be particularly contradictory and heartbreaking in a matter of seconds. 

I really think the season got much less love than it deserved. I recommend it.

Season 3: 3 out of 4.

A serial killer seems to follow the pattern of some old urban legends. Natalie, a student of Pendleton University, tries to find out about the connection between some gruesome murders happening around her and the urban legends.

This one is a good entry in a long list of thriller movies of the 90s like 'Scream' and 'I Know What You Did Last Summer'.

It's a very suspenseful and chilling movie with brutal killings that is a must watch for horror lovers. The references to age old urban legends and the killer using them for killing the victims is a unique and original concept that's really interesting. It's hard for the viewer to guess who the killer is until the very end of the movie. A great watch. Highly recommended.

What a snore-fest of a film. Director Henry Hobson does his best to secure a dark atmosphere in contrast to an ill-lightened script. But Maggie, like many nocturnal dramas of late, is another failure.

The father-trying-to-do-everything-for-his-daughter message is addressed well throughout. Regardless, the emotions on screen are tragically misplaced.

Arnold Schwarzenegger gave the performance of a lifetime, but he can't be deemed the saving grace of the movie, because writer John Scott 3 did not leave anything to be salvaged from this desolation land.

This year marks the 40th anniversary of this classic John Carpenter film and also one of my favorites. The film is also on DVD and blu-ray. Happy 40th anniversary to John Carpenter's Escape from New York, one of the most popular science fiction movies from 1981.

40 years ago today on July 10th 1981, Escape from New York made its debut in theaters in the United States of America. It is a 1981 American science fiction action film co-written, co-scored and directed by John Carpenter.

It stars Kurt Russell, Lee Van Cleef, Donald Pleasence, Ernest Borgnine, Isaac Hayes, Adrienne Barbeau, and Harry Dean Stanton. The film's storyline, set in the near-future world of 1997, concerns a crime-ridden United States, which has converted Manhattan Island in New York City into the country's maximum-security prison. Air Force One is hijacked by insurgents and is deliberately crashed in New York City. Ex-soldier and current federal prisoner Snake Plissken (Russell) is given just 24 hours to go in and rescue the President of the United States, after which, if successful, Snake will be pardoned.

Carpenter wrote the film in the mid-1970s in reaction to the Watergate scandal. After the success of Halloween (1978), he had enough influence to begin production and filmed it mainly in St. Louis, Missouri, on an estimated budget of $6 million. Debra Hill and Larry J. Franco served as the producers. The film was co-written by Nick Castle, who had collaborated with Carpenter by portraying Michael Myers in Halloween. Released in the United States on July 10, 1981, the film received positive reviews from critics and was a commercial success, grossing more than $25 million at the box office.

The film was nominated for four Saturn Awards, including Best Science Fiction Film and Best Direction. The film became a cult classic and was followed by a sequel, Escape from L.A. (1996), which was also directed and written by Carpenter and starred Russell, but was much less favorably received.
