  • Episode 26 - Jungle Cruise (2021 | English | Disney+) - Review
    Nov 13 2021

    Disney's 2021 summer blockbuster Jungle Cruise is a special one, unlike most other Disney movies that later made it into rides at their theme parks, this one got its inspiration from the popular Jungle Cruise ride, complete with the boat driver and his bad, scratch that, dad jokes. It's a 2:14 hours ride through the Amazon jungle and many funny and scary bits with animals, humans, and other dangers strewn about. And of course those dad jokes. Rated PG-13, easy recommendation for a family watch with the 5+ year olds.

    Director: Jaume Collet-Serra

    Actors: Dwayne Johnson, Emily Blunt, Edgar Ramirez, Jack Whitehall, Jesse Plemons, Paul Giamatti, Veronica Falcon, Dani Rovira

  • Episode 25 - Chhichhore (2019 | Hindi | Hotstar) - Review
    Nov 13 2019

    A semi-autobiographical movie by Nitesh Tiwari (of Dangal fame).  Looking back at the college/hostel life, the things that seemed like matters of life and death back then, and juxtaposing those with the life of the present teenaged son of the primary protagonists, who's facing a similar situation. The review was split down the middle, a bit so due to the expectations that come as a follow up to Dangal. Listen and make your own opinions.

    Director: Nitesh Tiwari

    Actors: Sushant Singh Rajput, Shraddha Kapoor, Varun Sharma, Tahir Raj Bhasin, Naveen Polishetty, Tushar Pandey, Prateik Babbar, Saanand Verma, Mohammad Samad

  • Episode 24 - Mard Ko Dard Nahi Hota (2019 | Hindi | Netflix) - Review
    Nov 9 2019

    A quirky, madcap comedy which had all the right ingredients, but somehow missed the knock out punch at the end. Zany throughout, and an out and out homage to Bollywood. Now streaming on Netflix.

    Director: Vasan Bala

    Actors: Abhimanyu Dasani, Radhika Madan, Prateek Parmar, Mahesh Manjrekar, and Gulshan Devaiah.
