PARI VIKRANT

Senseless…at its best. Today I watched this so called hyped movie “Mrs”. Before watching this movie I was under impression that our protagonist (Richa) is marrying into no M-I-L house, turns out her PhD in Economics MIL is also part of the lifelong slavery of two mediocre men who own Nursing home yet they all live in shabby, old looking, middle class, no-dishwasher house. The worst part, Richa took almost 6 months to burst out on her husband. I mean, an educated, dance teacher who can drive (one of the life skills) is waiting for everyone to pick on her and not back answer or at least defend herself. That sounds absolutely ridiculous at this day and age. Richa’s husband is gynaecologist yet he is unable to understand the simple intimacy or romance she asked of him. This whole movie has basically shown how everyone is wrong. FIL - who is somewhat retired but still has the old caveman attitude. Husband - who is never home or involved in their married life actively. MIL - just toiling her youth and old age after two man-children. Richa - educated yet dumb enough to not take initiative of finding a plumber who can fix the pipeline in kitchen and dependent on MIL’s men child. I mean, you have problem then either speak up and do something about it. Lastly, Richa’s parents raising her brother to become another man child. She didn’t find any problem in this whole system until she became victim of one. And the end was so absurd, as if nothing happened. He married to another girl and Richa became successful dance teacher. Mrs. To No Mrs. Journey.

Jigra’s trailer seemed really promising. So watching it in theatre would be great experience, I thought then. Nevertheless, I watched it on Netflix today. Many day to day activities in prison seem genuine and studied. Jail break is actually dreamy like typical Bollywood movies. (Spoiler): In actual jail riot, not a single prison guard will try to contain prisoners when the whole system is down. Also, chief guard is hell bent on punishing just 3 prisoners rather than keeping situation under control. I mean, 6000 prisoners are on loose and you’re worried about 3 death row inmates. Typical masala movie. If you got time, watch Prison Break. At least you would know how system works. (Except for few factors of course) Had high hopes from Jigra but turned out, it wasn’t for me. All actors worked well though.

One time watch…. I loved Vikram and Theri but Leo seems odd to connect dots when it comes to joining forces. All actors have played their part very well. Fight scenes are total adrenaline pump up. Spoiler Alert: Leo’s gangster family is Christian - yet his father Anthony (Sanjay Dutt) believes in ritualistic sacrifices. I mean, since when a true Christian believes in superstitions. Another thing, Kundli (horoscope) is supposed to be a Hindu family thing, why use cinematic liberty to provide illogical reasoning. It felt like watching Vijay’s Beast movie…it was worst for sure.

My first K-drama was All of us are dead (watched it in English) and second was Tomorrow. Since then I started liking Kim-Hee-Sun. I sometimes feel New Zealand Netflix has less options still I try to list Kim-Hee-Sun’s drama to watch. Her enticing acting makes you watch more of her dramas. I am on my 1st episode of Lady in Dignity and instantly hooked with this drama. As long as Kim-Hee-Sun and Jang-Na-Ra are in drama, it doesn’t matter to me who else is in there with them. I am pretty sure this will too turn out to be great story.

Couldn’t take anymore. As this whole drama forgot it’s own story line and re-routed to something nonsense. 20 episodes stretched out made it worse. Director Lee’s research to increase patient’s lifespan or cure them with infected serum is a non-succeeding course. Seeing that is tiring. Watch this drama only if you have ample of time. Park Ji-Sang and others acted well as their role demanded.

Loved their cast. Less deducing and understanding of every case. This show is about reapers saving suicidal people. One of the department in Jumadeng. I became fan of Kim Hee-Sun and Lee Soo-Hyuk and of course loved the work of other actors. This show has put everything perfectly. As past should be seen with clear mind, present to live with confidence and think of future with positive hope. This is feel good drama with lil cry and suspense. I mostly love the chemistry between Kim hee sun and Lee soo hyuk.

Disappointing kdrama ever. Sad ending and worst conclusion to get rid of a dreadful, evil, psychopath spirit. Nevertheless, everyone played their part very well. Possessed is like watching murderers or psychopaths getting their wicked joy and Korean police department can’t catch the culprit but accuse their own detective on the basis of false evidence. The most stupid part was the letter in last episode which sounded emotional but doesn’t make sense cause whole cast died for nothing.

Almost reached to the 8th episode and haven’t got bored or regretted the choice of watching this drama. Nice and out of the box concept. All actors are perfect in their role. Jang Na-Ra as usual amazing. I loved her Sell your haunted house and VIP. All 3 male friends of Ha-Ri try to win her and crate good laugh. Must watch, engaging drama.
